Apparently its well marketed (Russel is good at that), because it's one of the only math related books HN knows.

Being culled occurs when you are not in the workforce. It’s not the same issue as a guarantee to your current employer. Either way these are just wishful normative statements. The business reality is that they will not guarantee you a job.

You can talk to a person and try to develop an understanding. You can’t fix a broken computer you don’t own.

What’s with the sense of entitlement towards jobs in HN? Businesses will continue to employee you as long as they think it’s a net benefit to them. Their outlook can change at anytime and for nonsensical reasons. I would suggest accepting t

C programs without libraries tend to be really fast for the opposite reason. So this isn’t persuasive even though it seems like it should be true

Mac is a system of tightly integrated processes, so emulation requires the whole OS. Windows games tend to be isolated all in one executables.

American puritans are not the only group with a sensitivity toward nudity (and it’s rather small), it’s just the only one allowed to be a punching bag on Reddit.

Indeed, although some of the same groups still feel supported but just not for the same reasons as before.

People without kids have that problem. This poster is talking about having children causing an evil change in personal character.

This is a very strange comment. Yes people often get territorial about their kids. This is long shot to evil, corruption, or not looking each other in the eye.

That's certainly an argument but it's just one bullet point in a supportive 5 paragraph essay. How many employees actually have better equipment and spaces at home? Is your espresso machine improving your productivity, or is it a

You need analysis to make sense of infinite series, indefinite integrals, exponential functions, etc.

It's not "fine" but it's extremely hard to get them to do things they are disincentivized to do. And most government attempts do not result in the desired behavior.

Aren’t left leaning people all about “ethical porn” and power dynamics now?

Almost certainly you have not. 40 hour weeks a year is ~2000 hours.

This is ridiculously not practical. For lisp programmers making dsls is just how you write programs and you don’t need a parser.

Lots of studios do. Turning internal software into a product for others is a different thing.
