If the answer you get is this terrible, then maybe you're asking the wrong question. For example, I know the tale of a large multinational consumer goods company who bought their supplier for X. Coincidentally, the X supplier was als

Isn't 100 lines too much for a simple utility like wc? I get that it has many edge cases to cover, but edge cases usually require some different handling when you run into them anyway. I'd rather use my one-liner (including calcul

Or you could just use `cycle >> take 10` and avoid all this meaningless discussion.

If I may quote from the Integer Programming chapter in Vohra's book, "Before proceeding you should convince yourself that no ‘simple’ scheme based on solving the underlying linear program and rounding the resulting solution can fi

A funny method to circumvent the block was to visit wikimedia. As long as your connection was kept alive, you could keep surfing wikipedia like it wasn't blocked at all!

Corruption matters aside, I honestly think choosing a non-standard technology is a good move. Reading the news article, you see that the students mentioned are in trade schools. Turkey needs the trade school students to continue doing tra

That just means that the letters from your institution carry no value to the letter readers. The letters only carry weight when the people behind them have credibility

The entire history of mankind has decided that liberty is worth quite a lot of lives. I feel that the amount of blood spilled to liberate a country highly correlates with how important freedom is considered to be.

By the logic of our current economic models (along with our observations of thousand years of economic history), we don't even have to figure anything out. As technology advances and capital accumulates without population growth; consu

"But I don’t want to go among nerds,” HN user catalogia remarked. “Oh, you can’t help that,” said the Cat: “we’re all nerds here. I’m a nerd. You’re a nerd.” “How do you know I’m a nerd?” said they. “You must be,” said the Cat, “or you

I don't buy this. The government has more resources to fix UX readibility more than any other company, and I know how nitpicky a HN reader can get on UX details. So why should the government get a pass? It won't get better unless

Yes, of course. But I think people usually consider romance to be more important than friendships. I don't know if it's because of evolutionary reasons, or cultural reasons; just that it happens that way. Of course, my knowledge i

Yeah, they are almost literally vultures. You should probably buy those for yourself while you're alive.

Complaining about the dating scene does not make you an incel. You're being condescending for no reason at all. Nothing he said is related to the usual talking points of incels. Also, men are lonely and this reflects heavily in suici

An obituary is not written for you , it's written for the deceased person. It's an entirely symbolic deed that's done selflessly (the writer does not aim to gain anything from it) and that's why interrupting it to ask f

Human behavior does not (and should not) care about the cost structure. As binge watching is popular, having digital content priced over 15$ (or whatever the monthly price of the streaming service that also hosts the content) limits the sal

I want to use J, but I can't unlearn the symmetry of {}. On the other hand, I feel k/q is just too barebones.

Alternatively you could just read Starting Strength. The only exercise that's difficult in technique is the Power Clean, and you can replace it with Chin-ups. Even Rip does it in his Practical Programming book. Seriously though, your s

Considering most daily (commuting, grocery shopping) trips are either very short or slow due to traffic, I fail to see how this fact is interesting at all.

I mostly feel these methods are quite overkill for most applications. As a purist, I'd recommend starting out with a simple linear regression and then moving on to adding methods to cover the letters of SARIMA by showing the need for e
