It's a gripe of mine too. There's a tenuous link at best, and it may not mean what is commonly assumed. If you want to say "it can give pleasure or joy," just say so. Don't invoke a rather indirect, pseudo-scientifi

If you're enough of a hypocrite, it makes perfect sense.

It seems you cannot reject recommendations. Based on two books, the system showed reasonable recommendations, some of which I'd read, including one that I really didn't like. There must be useful information in that, too.

My dishwasher came with a booklet that showed energy and water consumption for each setting. Eco mode is about 20% - 50% more efficient in comparison to the other programs.

Dave Barry is a great source of accurate information, e.g. on how to buy gifts for Christmas. This column [1] includes vital information about parking at a mall, children, etc. A must read for the upcoming season. [1] https://dav

Not being a USian: what does turning the AC down mean? Set the thermostat to a lower temperature or make it less active (i.e. set it to a higher temperature)?

What was the horrible lie you were forced to accept, as if O'Brien himself were telling you to?

Real brains have a very different structure and composition. Neurons aren't monotonic, there are loops, etc.

I tried to look some things up on their support pages before 1600Z, and it timed-out. The Dutch railways are also affected (they're an MS shop, IIRC).

It seems they agree with Trump on practically everything. So yes.

I got the impression Grokipedia (what a lousy name, BTW; there's not a teenage rock band that would call itself that) has been trained on Wikipedia. I compared the entries for "Gallium Arsenide", and Grok's first section

Nitpicking: just as TMs can use binary or decimal arithmetic, so could Rust programs use unary. It's not an inefficiency in TMs per se, but I can see how it would help a TM to become a BB champion.

They were looking to analyze teeth. This might be selection bias.

Note that the actual paper does not make the claim from the title, and that they "recovered and sequenced ancient DNA from the teeth of 13 soldiers" (one molar each) from one site only, which means other origins cannot be discarde

If frequency of use is an argument, one could argue that to decimate might not even be a word.

Impressive, but those 63 nodes were "Azure Standard E64pds v6 nodes, each providing 64 vCPUs and 504 GiB of RAM." That's 4000 CPUs and 30TB memory.

There are reasons for rewriting, but I can't imagine a technical one for coreutils.

I can think of two: whe running out of file descriptors or memory. But then /dev/null1 would fail too.

That's plain wrong, or hiding FM's complexity under a useless term. Plus it doesn't have filters in its original form.

There are enough synthesizers that work in a rather different way. E.g., FM is notable for being hard to grasp.

It's in the "404" handler of the backend. It should be possible to write a caddy or nginx module for it.

Too biblical and old-fashioned, probably. I would say that at least half the people who've used "leopards ate my face" don't even know the meaning of reap . The simplicity and visual character of the modern expression m
