   Could someone explain the graph used in the article where the y-axis is labeled as "cumulative" -- does this mean that each bin includes the sums from the previous bins? If so, then this will always be a non-decreasing graph. Ebol

   Yes. Sometimes X is a hairy problem and perhaps well beyond the scope of what anyone cares about, and Y is a well thought out distillation of a sub-problem. One of the problems I have with stackoverflow is crafting a question so that only t

   This is all over dramatized myth busting -- one could simply say they are all true except for the occasional leap second adjustment. No need for the dramatic "they are all false."

    I knew a lot of Chinese students in grad school (computer science) and saw none of this. This article smells fishy.

    I used to have Fortran77 notepad for hand writing code — later I would type it in. Always began in the 8th column if I remember right?

    Yes, but it is a fun distraction and kept me from my work for a few minutes.

    One could easily write and an article titled “Stoicism’s Appeal to the Poor and Disenfranchised.” Power and wealth is orthogonal to Stoic Philosophy. It counters much of today’s culture of blame of jealously of others and offers a more fulf

    Yes, but I am left hanging on the specific details. He factors to yield (x + y)(x^2 - xy + x^2) = 42 - z^3 He brute force searches over values d and finds a value z such that d divides 42 - z^3 (evidently these are rare and easy to

    Interesting that the second number is prime and the others have very large prime factors (only 5 and 4 distinct prime numbers for 1st and 3rd numbers respectively): (8,866,128,975,287,528)³ + (–8,778,405,442,862,239)³ + (–2

    Can the replication process that occurs when a cell divides be used for data copying? It seems like this, if doable, would be a huge boon for DNA storage.

    I might be willing to try this, but I am afraid of the outcome. The headaches are violent. I have had these headaches decades and I know my triggers. MSG is the king of triggers.
