All those approximations have error and the behaviour you describe depends on where you are on Earth. Moreover, degrees are not natural from a mathematical perspective.

It would be awesome if you could support "album playlists/groups/tags" which are stored on Spotify servers using the first track for each album in a standard playlist.

I prefix with the "project/directory name" for [my dotfiles]( https://github.com/YodaEmbedding/dotfiles ), e.g. nvim:, zsh:, tmux:, i3:. Nearly everything is a feat or fix, but it's much more useful t

In programming, it's important to structure correctly, format correctly, and spell consistently. This might explain why.

Side note: It would be nice to have a way to look up library -> package name.

Why not use the UNIX idea of composability and relegate all the JSON construction to another tool, e.g `jo`: $ jo query="six times nine" answer=42 | curl --json - Sending JSON... {"query":"six times ni

This is true. The best way would be if everyone generated CSV files that were compatible with on one or two already existing CSV formats. (e.g. no-quote-plain-old-csv or quotes-forced-csv.) Hopefully, it would be easy to distinguish between

Not that I care for drawing circles in GIMP, but that's two steps -- one of which I didn't know was even possible.

This is a strange way to say "stubbornly use an editor that is inferior to vim". :P

Does this discourage folks from applying excessive dynamic range compression? Compressed tracks still sound louder.

If my amazing hash function takes 10^10^10 years to compute, it's possibly more secure than anything else listed there, but it's also quite useless.

1. Long division uses a similar idea to Euclid's algorithm for GCD. Are you familiar with that? Regardless, both algorithms are divide and conquer algorithms. 6240 / 5 = divide(6240, 5) = divide(1240, 5) + 1000 = divide(240, 5) +

Haha, that reminds me of whenever one of my friends and I used to come across a door. We'd both hold it open and say "you first, I insist" and stand there. One time, I believe it went on for a solid 20 minutes. (Other... &quo

All the top architectures are not rotation-invariant. I think some of the blame lies in how successful CNNs are (as Hinton claims).

Sure, why not? Then I could study all of mathematics, physics, computer science, or whatnot at my leisure! Right now, I can only experience the smallest of glimpses into incredibly interesting fields.

Bitbucket was originally for hg though. Why would switching to git be better?
