I Suspect It's a Case of Mistaken Capitalization of Titles (In my case, using Chicago Manual of Style's rules for headline case, in which "of", a preposition, would not be capitalized)

I always thought that people deleted their own comments to staunch the downward flow of their fake internet points. Was that an incorrect assumption?

I was 100% for the capitalization of internet until I read your comment. I think you just wrecked the analogy without realizing it. Your telephone is connected to a telephone network, which is an interconnected network of telephonic devices

This is why Facebook bought it to begin with, IMHO. They've got some smart people there who are prescient enough to take their web-based intent-oriented analytics and figure out that head tracking (similar to eye tracking used in UX st

There's also a model-specific wedge that can be used to "convert" to Equatorial. My SCT has one available, though I don't use it, since most of my imaging involves stacking much shorter exposures at lower magnifications

Postmark has a free tool to set up and monitor DMARC, which is another policy setting that can be used (if you own your domain) so that major email providers know whether or not to trust an email claiming to be from you. Postmark's too

I stand corrected. I also submitted a PR that, since he's an attorney, can be evaluated for legal enforceability. I think it more clearly specifies the rights granted to npm, and is a nearly verbatim quote from the terms of a consultin

I don't mean to sound so cynical, but anyone can say "our lawyer". When we wanted to make a change to our own agreements for our training services, our attorney said that any reference to an agreement or license must be style

Does NPM require packages to use a license compatible with their asserting an irrevocable license to distribute said package? How is this verified? EDIT BELOW I see some responses (three as of this writing) that quote their terms, and I wan

Instructure, the company behind Canvas LMS, is a pretty big company, and their software is used by many, many companies/educational institutions. It could be argued that Canvas (the notes app here) is confusingly similar to Canvas LMS

Is there any avenue for Apple to begin legal action against the US Gov't for hacking the phone, in order to shine a light on the truth of how the phone was "hacked"?

conda env also installs other dependencies for code. Really, the whole point of it all is that conda replaces pip and virtualenv . Conda manages more than just Python packages, but other dependencies as well. For example, here&#x27

Fair enough. I would posit that he didn't ever expect that the npm folks would undo his actions, even if his decisions were/seemed rash.

Agreed, that feels wrong too. But is npm supposed to be the recess supervisor in this metaphor, taking the ball back and giving it back to the other kids?

Because using theirs means not having to recompile numpy (for example) with each environment. Why doesn't anaconda's env work for you?

This feels very wrong to me. I know, open source, etc., and it's likely that the source license allows it provided the license remain intact, but still... For better or worse (worse, IMHO), the author decided to un-publish his nam modu

Cringe. Just two months ago we were "dozin' with the dinos" at the Field Museum, and went on a behind the scenes tour where we got to learn about the huge fish collection there. Seeing the huge halls of movable shelving units
