Just say "cock", with a straight face, not laughing and serious, and people will not laugh. People will know it's the proof assistant. Same when saying "Hoare logic".

Why does the BSD implementation compare with copies of the data outside the original array? Is there a performance benefit to doing this?

It's exactly a stereotype. AKA weak bayesian evidence for a characteristic based on other, easier to measure, characteristics. EDIT: I thought the result was going to be exactly the opposite before I made this comment. My first impulse

Some of the replies to the thread show mistakes in the paper. For example, Zimbabwe is marked as very active and very hateful. But it's probably just people with a VPN: doing that to get a "controversial" or "funny"
