   this still isn't making sense to me, is there a simple math example of how this is even possible if encrypt(1) = a, then how can encrypt(1) + 2 ever give me the correct answer?

   This with VR will be glorious. This game alone could be the reason I get a VR headset and build a PC.

   I think selling boston dynamics was a mistake, as was spinning off motorola. Instead of merging these with AI initiatives, these were sold off because they weren't "cultural fits" whatever that means. Business units need to h

    I'm no blaze/bazel expert (hopefully someone will add their own thoughts), but: 1. build graphs are trees/acyclic : bazel enforces this, no cyclic dependencies allowed 2. Compilers will always modify the timestamps

    corruption is caused by wealth, health, educational inequality, lack of familiy planning in many cases. If people can't feed themselves or their families they will turn to corruption and use any means to get ahead

    You don't have to pass GATE in order to write a compiler, parser, etc. In fact I'd venture to guess that many of the most famous programmers of compilers and creators of new languages (e.g. Larry Wall) couldn't pass the GATE

    Perl5 was the first language in which I actually did some substantial projects. It was also heavily used in scientific computing (esp. genetics) until python came along.

    It seems to me we need massive localized solar and battery investments as a backup.

    i'm assuming this is now being discussed due to the recent kurzgesagt video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHHSSJDJ4oo . Key takeaways are that solar flame detectors are only 33% effective and we don't have a s

    govt's need to catch up and start setting some rules. App stores have gotten so large that they essentially become like real estate or store space. You can't just have a few stores control all the means of distribution.

    I was once working at a startup in the south bay area, where "white developer" was not one of the people who was able to do what we wanted, as an engineer, for a startup which had a tech foundation. This was a big problem for most
