After they published that piece (which was misleading and deeply unethical, not just 'critical', by the way), he wrote this: > I have no particular call for action. Please don’t cause any trouble for the journalist involved, bo

If we're talking homomorphisms, no it can't: the whole point of the homomorphism is that the addition operation works regardless of whether you do it in the source space (2 + 4 = 6, then reduce mod 5) or the target space, where yo

It depends what the fundamental operations are in your context. There are different types of map that we call "X homomorphism" for different types of algebraic structure X (groups, rings, fields, vector spaces, modules, algebras,

I like your explanation overall. But "point-to-point equivalence" is a little off from the math notion of homomorphism, and I think also the type theory version, if I understand correctly how you're using that phrase. It seem

The rules don't say explicitly that a reaction time of <100ms to the signaled start of the race results in disqualification but in practice that's been the case (see the DQ of Devon Allen in the world championship 110m hurdle

They didn’t hear it, and therefore the lower court’s decision remains in place. That’s what this means: > the United States Supreme Court on November 20, 2023 rejected the Company’s petition to file an appeal against the orders passed by

If you don’t feel like memorizing it, you could also store it on your phone in your password manager of choice.

Not blindly; there is a pretty extensive footnote (footnote 2) covering the linear-risk assumption.

Sudafed also makes pseudoephedrine HCl, which works. That’s why their name is a contraction of ‘pseudoephedrine’.

Which classes are you thinking of?

They are typically not taught in school, at least in the US but probably elsewhere too. I don’t even know of a commonly taken undergrad-level course that I’d expect to cover them.

There’s one thing I can think of that looks like an exception to the lack of interference at function boundaries: you can return impl SomeTrait rather than worrying about the exact thing you’ll return. It’s useful for iterator adapters in p

Seems unlikely, bonuses are not an Amazon thing, and iiuc status pages aren’t a decision such people would be making anyway. A dedicated “devops” person at Amazon (to the extent that’s even a thing, mostly engineering teams own their own op

Off the top of my head, two big accomplishments are compressed sensing and the existence of arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions in the primes (the Green-Tao Theorem, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green–Tao_theorem

The article claims much less certainty than implied by the post title. (“iPhone 15 Pro 10% lighter but 15% lower rotational inertia because of edge mass” is what it currently is.)

> phenylepherine is the otc version of pseudoephedrine That’s mostly incorrect, both are “otc” (over-the-counter) wherever you can buy them without a prescription. That’s what that means.

I don't think so. I've seen Indians do it too, though they may be more willing to drop it as they learn it's not done in the wider anglophone world.

Yeah, you’re right. Sorry. I missed the edit window and can’t fix it. Someone else has posted the right one.

It may have to do with what you tried. For me the most basic thing, asking for the time, didn't fail, but more involved applications like music and smart-home (lighting control) did.
