Taking Shivers' Fundies I class was mind blowing, even as a student that had been programming for several years already. They should have put him and Barzilay (who I had for PL and then later TAed under) in charge of the curriculum up

This is a common misinterpretation. It's not about equality of outcomes. It's about recognizing that some people have potential that they wouldn't be able to realize due to longstanding historical inequalities that are highl

I use CalyxOS and sync with the Nextcloud app to my home server. There is Seedvault built in but I've found it to be slightly janky. Many apps can directly operate on files synced through the Nextcloud app like that, or at least dire

The interesting thing about irrational numbers is that they can't be constructed from a finite number of symbols from basic algebra. This is especially interesting when they have relationships with other irrational numbers, like the u

Plus, the jumo from zebrafish to mice is a lot larger than the jump from mice to humans. If it still functions across that large of a jump then it's very likely it'll also work in humans.

I'm sure you could get that data from public permitting filings. And failing that, train an AI model on scraped Google Maps imagery. I would be surprised if people aren't doing it already.

They sell the consoles at a loss, so if you could port your own games to the consoles instead of buying the games that they could take a royalty from then they lose money. It doesn't have to be an effective circumvention to trigger

But in the case of highways, they probably would have still gotten where they want to go by another route. The folly is treating highway capacity as being a "market" when really the decision making is much more dynamic and nuance

Dart was never marketed (to my knowledge) as a general-purpose programming language. Go was marketed as the best thing since sliced bread, and especially as a "systems language", which it definitely isn't. It was also gaini

This works for those two types, but consider something slightly more general like an Either type with a Left and Right. You could just repeat the same think as Ok but for Left or Right, but then why pick one or the other? It becomes a f
