And the ground stations have a different potential with respect to each other, so their reading of elapsed time could differ. That's what I understood from another article on that subject.

Strictly speaking ruby, private only forbids calling the method in question with an explicit receiver. object_instance.private_method is obviously prohibited, but so is self.private_method when called from another class method. The la

Right, I see this as the third way: stating transitivity which must not be asserted explicitly. The question arises what one would want to reach with a call to transitive(descendant). (aside: the X =.. [F,A,B] is the prolog way of sayi

No. I would consider it helpful if there were more people in the industry who would know what a binary tree (or whatever comes to mind) is and when to use it. all means to get there are welcome as far as I'm concerned. This l'art pour l'art

Hmmm .. Security by obscurity? When I look at my server logs I see lots of attempts to crack into software, components or programming languages I do not use and which can't be found on the server. The common cheap hacking script doesn't eve

I sincerely hope that folktales and sayings about groups are not the common source of judgement on HN. Nice also that you also have "leftist lunatic" as an explanation for any possibly contrary opinion.
