Apartments in Berlin tend to have ridiculously oversized entrance halls in my experience. There must be some other driving force here.

In my city, Google Maps treats all bus, tram, and subway stops as being at the same point, so it can't help you find the correct bus stop (many subway stops have dozens of connecting bus lines distributed around all exits of the statio

GCs are typically allowed to (and often do) move objects, while malloc/free do not. This means that malloc/free must maintain data structures tracking allocated vs. free space, while compacting GCs keep all the free space in a s

This is kind of a borderline case, since the term "preterite" is recognized by English grammarians as a synonym of "simple past tense", but to use it probably is an influence by e.g. German Präteritum or French pr

For some people "being it" [biŋɪt] and "be hit" [bihɪt] are minimal pairs. I can't think of any vowels that can both come at the ends of words and before [ŋ] in my own speech, though.

ISTR last time I used AirBnB there was some flow that really pushed you to leave a review, which obviously leads to those kinds of uninformative reviews.

I agree that the term "quantum supremacy" is overly grandiose, but it was clearly defined before Google published this work. I just want to emphasise that there were people who believed that even this small step was impossible

I don't know. I simply made the opposite assumption from you. EDIT: it looks like it only has a single, weird, type of gate. But I guess the connections between gates are configurable? Still different to a lamp!

The lamp is not a programmable light-processor that can compute arbitrary computation using light, but Sycamore is (though it's very small). The trouble is we don't know many (any?) interesting algorithms to run on such processors
