This doesn't seem very realistic. Looking at the tires of they're robot, it would be almost impossible to manoeuvre on that kind of surface. If you look at Lego vehicles for example, they all have to have disproportionately wide w

I'm not suggesting these are the best patterns, or even 'good' patterns. I am simply drawing a parallel between them and pythonic iterators. When it comes to errors from generator patterns, I've gone between your suggest

For fear of disagree downvotes: I would say that many of the qualms brought up in this article are problems that are encountered fighting the language. The problem of 'summing any kind of list' is not a problem that is solved in G

Nope. There is a presentation on cookie tossing, but scant else.

I agree, but I did not mean to make any sweeping statement in that regard, but in the case of a standardised markup like markdown, there are already suites of field-tested C libraries that provide much better speed than this library would;

I don't understand what you mean. Could you also explain the negativity around this comment? I didn't think it was a badly voiced opinion, and karma is not meant to be used to show how much you agree or disagree with someone.

I'm pretty familiar with neural networks, and skimming that article it appears to describe something that is a neural network. Is 'Deep Learning' new terminology for 'Neural Network', or does it describe a subset of

Perhaps I am looking at this wrong, but I don't see why you would use a Markdown parser written in PHP if you're looking for speed. Case in point the parsedown system is fast because it has heavy use of regular expressions, which

Essentially: electrical stimulation of the brain can cause some to wake up, and some to enter a state between awake and asleep; sounds fairly intuitive. I have had personal experience of lucid dreams, when I was very young I would stare at

GIMP is not for creating Vector graphics, though you can have vector elements through bezier curves. Inkscape, however is created for this exact purpose.

What "fuzz" is this referring to? I have for a long time preferred GIMP to paint.net for its portability and versatility, but neither of these compete with MSPaint in any way-- they fill a completely different role.

Use an icon font generated by icomoon or the like. That does not require Javascript, HTML and CSS prerequisites, is only as heavy as the used constituent SVG elements and is well-supported.

I can't see any evidence that the hash is sent to any server. I think it is more likely the hash is used to look up the recent websites in a hash table or via a bloom filter.
