Yes. A valid question for a specific n would be whether you can prove the value of BB(n). If you don't care about provability, you can indeed just produce a number that happens to be the right one. So as you noticed, it only makes sens

It does two things: Force everyone (including scrapers) to run a real JS engine, and force everyone to solve the challenge. The first effect is great, because it's a lot more annoying to bring up a full browser environment in your scra

That might be regional, then. I wouldn't say $COUTNRY is exactly a high-trust society, but it's not quite that bad for us over here.

They shouldn't. Just like you don't have to support when a psychotic person becomes violent. But you also can't pretend it's not part of the package. It doesn't stop being mental illness when it becomes inconvenient

There's usually a security person or two in the store, looking over the self checkouts. I agree that job prevents a lot of people from becoming opportunistic thiefs, but I'm making a distinction between cashiers and security. Toda

You need the images that go with the charts. They have their own config system, which usually involves elaborate shell scripts in the images that receives parameters from the chart.

Cashiers should not, and will not prevent theft. They're not paid nearly enough to get in danger, and it is not their job. I'm sure you can find videos of thefts in San Francisco if you need a visual demonstration. No cashier is g

The post echoed some similar points from Freddie DeBoer on real mental illness not always being pretty. There's limits to inclusivity that you quickly run into with schizoaffective disorder or bipolar. Companies are proudly supportive

That's an interesting question, because the uop cache is filled early in the pipeline, but zero-idioms are only detected around the rename stage. They might be able to skip a plain 0x90, but something like mov rax, rax would still emit

It seems like the roadblock is that most cli tools don't want to think too hard about XDG in the slightest, and they delegate to standard directory libraries. Those libraries aren't normally in the business of creating symlinks,

I thankfully found out when writing unit tests instead of in production. In Go time.Time has a much higher range than time.Duration, so it's very easy to have an overflow when you take a time difference. But there's also no error

Yep. I was arguing that in this case more efficiency means you can't need as many jobs as you would otherwise. That does meet my definition of efficiency gain if there are fewer employees. Whether that's a good thing and for whom

But I think this comes back to the same question of understaffing/overwork. We have to ask what strategic thinking led to accept long response times in the past. And the answer is unequivocal. Unless we're claiming there is an int

That is price segmentation. People who are price insensitive will not invest the time to fix it People who are probably shouldn't be on aws - but they usually have to for unrelated reasons, and they will work to reduce their bill.
