It could as well have diverged by accident. Sexual dimorphism in these kind of interest may not have any evolutional impact, but be affected by genes that were close to other genes that improve male fertility for example. The closer two gen

Not necessarily. These populations may have, for genetic reasons, a smaller gendered difference in tech interest. The "young males prefer trucks, young females prefer dolls" split is also found in chimps FWIW. Interest drives prac

Motivation comes from our survival instincts. While most robots right now are not subject to Darwinian forces, enterprises are, and one might argue that they are AIs in their own rights. Economic demand also stems from survival instinct. Co

I have a similar lib in JS that uses either regexps or plain strings for the leafs, and combinators to implement the various regexp operators. It is useful for maintainability. The regexp syntax was designed for a write-only scenario (the c

FWIW, marginBottom is not a React "standard", it's a DOM getter on the style object: document.body.style.marginTop = '200px' The non-camel-case version works as well (in modern browsers, there was a time wh

Oh, yes, I know. I usually source Mac parts from iFixit though, they provide a warranty and are a known quantity. I'm used to repairing my computers, but the broken one was wrecked (it still booted, but the case was bent around the bat

Belgian here, I grew up on AZERTY, but ended up learning QWERTY for coding. Story time... My last laptop had a physical QWERTY keyboard, but it met a fateful end (I drove on it) and had to replace it immediately. Good luck finding a QWERTY

You make it fall into a box. Shake the branch they are resting on, or brush them off until they fall. You cant tell if the queen made it into the box depending on the behavior of the workers already in there. If you missed it, goto step 1.

In the same vein, the Nokia 32/3310 could be navigated easily without looking. There were four buttons, a pair of arrows, ok, and cancel. A real, pure touch interface provided you could memorize the button sequences. Later models with

Babel can now parse TypeScript source and turn it into an AST. It doesn't check types at this point.

I don't have an android phone at hand, but the error is supposed to be part of the demo. If it appears in the UI (below the code) it is normal. You can click the "at (.js:14:8)" link, you'll get the cursor on the proble

With setfenv, the environment definition is lexical by default, but if you change the environment of the parent after creating a child function, the environment of the child doesn't change. You must `setfenv` the child as well. With _E

Rust's fearless concurrency[0] allows devs to write and refactor performant parallel code without the risk of introducing bugs, enabling them to ship upgrades faster. It's the same benefit you get from strong, static types in a la

Why would `_ENV` slow down LuaJIT? It only offers a subset of the `setfenv()` functionality of Lua 5.1 that's implemented in LuaJIT...

Migraine is linked to the production of NO by gut bacteria. Eating disorders (both bulimia and anorexia) may be caused by an auto-immune response to a hormone look-alike produced by (some strains? of) e. coli . Both the hormone and the bac
