The notation used is almost all explicitly defined or can be trivially derived by reading the descriptions provided, aside from cardinality e.g. |x^2 - a| which is assumed to be common knowledge. Everything else is very simple pseudocode al

One of my favorite past times was trundling up to the KFC near my smoke spot behind my equally fried friend pretending to drive an imaginary car so we could get takeout beyond the usual dine-in hours. It's a shame that, in this case, t

How often do you reseed? How frequently does the kernel populate these pages with new entropy (for every process, pre-emptively?) Does this avoid pagefaults or other process interrupts? Don't want process interrupting every time it acc

You don't want to buy a phone pre-flashed with GrapheneOS, this was the problem with CopperheadOS - they would only flash the phone if you sent it to them (unattended, across 2+ customs borders) - apparently that caused some internal s

I was going to say the same, it looks like an (E)BNF to AST parser which outputs XML. My only quandary would be whether the output XML structure could be ambiguous given the parse tree and input (requiring lots of context-dependent if/

Allowing anybody to retrieve your residential address and full name from your e-mail address, phone number or IP is a breach of privacy and confidentiality, if you don't consider that a security issue then perhaps you should reconsider

Yes, Reddit Bad, Google Bad, Imgur Bad, NFT LOL, Karma Farm, Many Wow++ The web doesn't have to be this way. If there is one last bastion of idealism why can't HN be it, where we talk about the fact that unnecessary compromises ha

When on mobile I end up missing out on a lot of content because using imgur on mobile is much more painful than it should be. This is compounded by the problem that mobile devices are often considered second class citizens by developers, so

No, on mobile Firefox that shows an empty 'loading' page and not the image. It's not just Firefox which is broken, with Chrome it's impossible to zoom into an image as it redirects the i.imgur.com/xxx.ext links to t

Credit card numbers are worse than passwords when it comes to toxic data. Why are we, on a daily basis, distributing all the information necessary to fraudulently impersonate us, and we're all OK with that. Then shrug it off 'oh y

Having used Photoshop almost daily between the 5 and CS3 days (after switching from PaintShop Pro) I still find GIMP an absolute pain to use aside from fairly basic re-touching and adjustment or 'oh look generic word-art' despite

Likewise I was going to get an X1 after owning several higher-end Thinkpad and Macbook models over the years. Instead I went with a Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED, 11th gen i7, 32gb ram, RTX 3070 etc. and after using the trackpad and keyboard daily
