   Regarding weinre: Is that any better than attaching desktop Safari to an ios simulator (not sure if it works for a physical device) or desktop Chrome dev tools to a real android device via adb? In any case, note that that's also a love

   It's not. Multiplication can't in general be done in constant time (and the exponentiation algorithm is inefficient as well). You might argue that we're working with ints here, so yes it can, but in that case all of these are

   Fermat's little theorem is Euler's theorem in the special case that m is prime. The condition on Euler's theorem is that x and m must be relatively prime... which is certainly true if m is prime.

   I work in a team of about 10 at a large company and it's convention to squash. The alternative is turning a potentially very messy history into something we'd care to look at two months from now. This doesn't seem worthwhile,

   What is the advantage of creating my-working-branch-squashed over just git checkout master git merge --squash my-working branch git commit You have to `git diff --staged` or `git diff master^` at some point to check that wh

    If pi is normal, and the two strings are of equal length, then yes... not only that, but if pi is normal it's likely that each appears infinitely often. By the way, sorry to point this out, but after 535 pi actually goes 5358979...

    >In reality the digits of pi are biased, so finding a particular number of N digits is even less likely. This is actually not known to be true. In fact, it's conjectured that pi is normal [1]--meaning that we should expect every se

    If no one replies with a good answer, then your best bet might be https://github.com/clojure/clojure/tree/master/src . (I acknowledge this isn't really an answer to your question.) I will try to fin

    Perhaps the answer is a kind of confident non-confidence. "I have studied this problem and am about 70% confident that the answer is this, and I am confident there's not enough information available to be more certain than that. I

    > typeof ["a", "b"] "object" Of course, since you're told you'll only get numbers, arrays, and strings, that is enough to solve the problem narrowly.

    Part of the point seems to be to explain the efficient implementation of such an approach. (How would you write GHC if you didn't have it available...?) Try to translate your code into C++...

    Similarly, in zsh cd -n will take you to the nth-most-recent directory. 'dirs -v' will show the current state of the directory stack... you can do things like "dirs -v" + "cd -6" to figure out the number to use

    Unfortunate that they don't mention licensing at all. (EDIT: Whoops, I'm completely wrong. Sorry. Move along, nothing to see here.) Since they use Git submodules, some licensing is inherited from packages like Command-T and vim-fu
