It is highly difficult to synchronize an orchestra without a conductor, that is, some centralization is needed (like CPU clock). Same problem with bands but they tend to use some kind of rhythm generator. It seems that birds have learned ho

This turns out to be a useful way of thinking about alternating current, and you can analyse AC circuits using complex arithmetic in much the same way as you use real algebra to analyse DC circuits. "Userful way of thinking" and

Entropy grows. Quantity of information drops. Interestingness falls. Is not it a natural process?

In this sense, Bitcoin is somewhat analogous to Tor. Both technologies try to overcome various artificial restrictions and natural constraints. However, Bitcoin and Tor target different areas: financial services and access to information, r

So a Bitcoin fork is a kind of a git branch or at least one could think of it so. In this sense, it would be interesting to implement this possibility as a feature. Then everybody could start a new branch using new software branch. What is

> Covariance and contravariance are just monotonicity and anti-monotonicity I am confused. It seems that monotonicity is a property of the function itself, that is, how it is implemented and what (type) it returns depending on what (type

So we could (by default) assume that all getter (returns) are invariant, and all setter (arguments) are contravariant. If we forget about invariance for a moment then this means essentially that there is only one default pattern and hence n

by techno_modus 9y ago
You are right, I probably did not express my idea clearly. What I meant is that there is only one meaningful pattern: returns are covariant and arguments are contravariant. If it is so (and the articles seems to confirm this) then why do we
