I would certainly not put the "as long as no laws are broken" qualifier in there. Governments don't have a great track record of keeping their noses out of consensual relationships.

Like other people have said, you probably need to talk to a lawyer, but one possible avenue is to just cross out the offending passages (initial and date the modifications, get a copy for yourself), then sign and return the contract. If it&

I don't think it's worse in C++. You can make purely imperative C-like programs in C++ with essentially no boilerplate (with the exception of maybe needing io from the standard library), and build things up as they go.

Yes, thanks for the feedback! I wasn't planning on feeding it the entire audiobook and trying to align the whole thing (though there are other reasons you might want to do something like this) - I figured I'd use some heuristic me

I had a vague plan to start working on something like this recently with the idea that I could automatically take audiobook media files and their accompanying ebook representation and use it to automatically re-divide the file by chapter (o

I thought she was right and probably right to share the information, but I did think that her advocacy of a boycott rubbed me the wrong way. I'm not interested in getting the pitchforks and making it a moral issue, I just want people

Good thing she asked! If that happens, they were probably going to give you an insultingly low offer after you had invested a bunch of time in their interview process.

I've seen some examples where either Oxford comma or no Oxford comma increases ambiguity, based on the sentence. The pro-comma example: - He invited the strippers, JFK and Hitler. - He invited the strippers, JFK, and Hitler. (This ma

They weren't ordered to remove it, they were ordered to caption it if it's provided at all. They decided it's not worth it to provide it to everyone for free if they have to caption all their videos, so they are making it ava

This may be true, but it's hard to get a sense of why you are or are not getting hired / getting interviews from the job-seeker's perspective, since you are not really privy to the decision-making process and can't rea

Interesting that this is entirely in English. Is this the English language version for foreign students, or are Japanese masters students expected to be fluent in English?

Actually, I'm not so sure. If you used inverse temperature (i.e. "coldness") and scaled it properly, it wouldn't actually be all that different, in practice, from a positive temperature scale. Here is a plot of Temperatu

I think that was a reference to the OP's nick, sfjailbird. Hard to see how it could be taken as disparaging in that context...

I've heard arguments to this effect, that absolute zero is more obviously impossible when you think in terms of Thermodynamic beta - which is standard physics notation for 1/(k_B * T) and appears in many places including in stat

Haskell I've seen often looks a lot like mathematical equations to me, where the tradition is that the notation is terse, with single letter variables (possibly with primes or other modifiers) is the norm.

But that makes things worse, because you have two different versions, one of which you can't see directly. b'' is the same as '' in Python 2 in the same way u'' is the same as '' in Python 3. Sin

I don't understand why it was less tedious to write a source-transforming module than to just make the static code changes once and be explicit about it.`b''` is supported in Python 2.7, so it's just redundant. I think

You really shouldn't be re-using passwords across sites anyway, since all your accounts are compromised if any of them are compromised. Since re-using passwords is a problem solved by using a password manager, I'm assuming you&#x2

If a site offers email resets at all, how often you (legitimately) use them generally doesn't play into the security analysis. If it's easier to get access to your e-mail than to get the password to the account that can be reset b

False positives are way more expensive than false positives. Any filter that is not heavily biased towards false negatives over false positives would likely be terrible for the business goals of interviewing. That is a baseline fact. I am

Assuming a posthumous grant to Aaron Swartz is not possible, I would think Alexandra Elbakyan from scihub would be a good choice for this award.

Taken literally, this makes it sound like an insanely inaccurate algorithm. Here's my algorithm for predicting whether someone will commit suicide: always say they won't. Since the suicide rate in the US is around 13 per 100,000,

You only use the keyboard to enter the password, not in general. When you open the database and select an entry, it offers to switch to the password keyboard for you, then when you are done you switch back.
