Gotta agree with this Enabling people to be fully self directed and successful is a rare skill. Often it is done by diminishing their own importance; putting you on a good path and then getting out of your way; and giving you all the glory

A problem to consider: Arbitrarily complex programs makes even defining what is and isnt a bug arbitrarily complex Did you want the computer to switch off at random button press; did you want two processes to swap half their memory. Maybe,

Looks great mate. Love the animations and exploration you've done I suppose more complex shapes would benefit from rigid body parts aswell

Suppression of opinion was the realm of dictatorship et al Now it is the realm of HN That's not to say I have a better way forward, but I don't think it is good to shutdown difficult conversations to appease the most offended -- t

I love the premise. I've got be your market audience, but the examples are too hard for me: both sh & cosh I don't use `find` and I would have to look up `-0` Why does cosh use ; the syntax kinda looks like they're not ne

Nice points I suppose the core issue is transactions. Erlang could still fail with them ! {sub, n} crash() me ! {add, n} But typically Erlang's isolated processes means many transactions can fail or rollback in isolation I s

Maybe https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use-define_chain SSA form might be a clearer expression of this idea, since there variable assignments more tightly conform to the idea of nodes in a graph, since they are assigned

Yes :) it wasn't the clearest example. But is also slightly hard to express I think superscalar architecture for hardware benefits from an explicit graph of dependencies. Then equally the user benefits from reduced need to convert the

Almost all problems have data dependencies as graphs rather than stacks. e.g. Sandwich = egg + bacon + bread All of egg + bacon + bread are almost always independent, and can be computed independently. A graph a.k.a. a register archi

Good question :) Assuming this is a real question and not just an excellent ruse; the answer, in terms of simplest setup would be 1) Install a vanilla default, such as Ubuntu 2) If that fails, buy a vanilla default laptop To be fair a reaso

So "Are students academic enough to understand this questionnaire, or wheelchair bound to stop them posting responses?" The skew still stands A meta point is it is probably impossible to remove bias EDIT: sorry, didn't see yo

If questionnaire's goal is to discover "Why don't students respond", then you could repeatedly random sample 120 students until, by chance, they all respond You'd then have a lot of student data, but it is completel

Suggestion: Move what is leapsecond independent to UT1, the atomic clock basis -- google, finance, etc now happy Keep UTC etc as is, since offests happen all the time to every other human clock anyway for political or summer time or country

The hardware providing those nanoseconds is not nanosecond accurate (unless using atomic clock) However they may be more accurate than 1ms. The guy is saying the timeslice given by the OS for a program to run in has at best a 1ms slot becau

> 42 images (maximum I can fit on my GPU with 24Gb memory) Probably I'm completely wrong, but surely scaling down those images, at least for the initial iterations, will reduce noise, and give you vastly better batches and faster it

I'm glad you like ethics. My criticisms above are not meant to say the article is bad; but that it can improve. Which is almost a truism of life "Aim for the stars" is aspirational. But you cannot judge somebody for failing t

I guess the main reason for a GC is DOM-WASM interop, so WebAsm gets to safely play with webpage dom Might allow for a more powerful IPC too; where malloc'd objects can be transferred?

This is cool i32.ctz(...) f64.reinterpret_i64(...) i64.load32_u(...) I didn't realize that was possible in WebAssembly/AssemblyScript Makes it a great target! Which I guess is what it was designed for :)
