That sounds like "if they didn't want to get stabbed, they would have disarmed the attacker" But this level of competence is not a given. I wrote my first html when i was 9. Nowadays, you need to know about <squints at not

I'm learning F#, not sure if this generalises to ocaml too. In F#, there is no function overloading, but there is method overloading. F# lacks higher-kinded types, but it's possible to roll your own using techniques from the artic

I also observe the phenomenon. In the case of craigslist, which is news to me, could you approximately quantify "heavily"? Are we talking about a few percentage points, or a visible chunk of a pie chart? Did the site depend totall

You think? I don't believe i have seen a single submission here using the github.io domain. It's possible some submissions are hosted there on a user's domain and heavily themed, but i suspect it's just not a host for ma

Hyperbole aside, that was a genuinely good move. I assumed it was subversive, because i infer that musk wants twitter to be a vehicle for democratic capture. (I can't call it "x", it feels like baby talk. Dignity also prevent

It can do A, ergo it can do B. By the same logic, you have experience in low-latency numerical decision-making, ergo you could optimise a 3D rendering pipeline. Yeah, no.

I think the Starlink weapon is to become indispensable, then to deny service. As we've seen in Ukraine. I could believe that Musk would smuggle a Doom Ray into the satellites, but i don't believe such a weapon exists in the weight

It would fall under contact law, and the case would hinge on either the ToS is binding, and whether the bot operator is deemed to have accepted the ToS, and whether access inflicts a cost. In the UK, you would likely win in court, and be aw

I am aware that acetone is created by metabolic pathways. I foolishly dunked my hands into it for several minutes. I'm confident, with hindsight, that it penetrated my epidermis in concentrations far higher than found in the body. It i

The most common setup for installations by lighting designers, sure. I suspect the vast majority of home led lighting is in lightbulb form, from people replacing incandescents.

...ish. Attacking their monopoly, great. Attacking their workers by bombing an office, not so great. Throwing ever more spam traffic across the tubes isn't a attack, it's marketing on their behalf.

That's a very healthy attitude. I love you too, in a general sense. But low-effort comments are not a good way to show that love. Why is this park a victory for socialism? Why is socialism victorious in France, why not elsewhere? Do yo

Alignment would be impossible, which would constrain the design. You could achieve a decent floral pattern, but you'd need to forego any vines. Celtic knots are out. Presumably larger prints will arrive, but you still have the trouble

My guess is that pressure-blasting the ink will not be more comfortable than driving it in with a physical needle. Maybe this belief comes from being a sysad - dot matrix printers never did me no harm, but inkjets are demonic.

You'd need quite large containers. I should think at least a metre cube, unless you can test just the head in isolation. Which would also be a guard against container escape.

Are you getting faster or better outcomes in America than when taking _private_ treatment in Canada, or do you need the treatment in Canada to he public for your claim to hold? I imagine that you can pony up to be seen in two days in Canada
