I practice taijiquan, a martial art. My teacher often describes concepts that I can relate to basic mechanics. When I do, it feels like I understand, but as my teacher says -- until you can actually express it with your body, you don'

I thought Michael Moore's reasons were pretty on point: http://michaelmoore.com/trumpwillwin/ Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin were indeed critical to the election, though it was by a hair that Trump won

I only use the search when I know what app I'm looking for. Wouldn't that would drive up the numbers artificially -- as I had the intention of downloading the app before I began searching.

It's also how muscles work, isn't it? A ton of tiny myosin heads pulling in parallel.

Show me a society that is pure anything. Capitalism is an idea among many ideas that influence society -- pure capitalism doesn't exist in the real world.

Funny story I have with Dropbox: I was setting up my new desktop to dual boot Debian and Windows. In the interest of saving space, I tried to have Dropbox in both systems target the same directory to sync. I'm not precisely sure what

Being able to read English is a different skill from being able to write it. A lot of the Chinese students I know can understand it mostly fine but have trouble writing coherently for an English reader.

It looks like it is software to exploit vulnerabilities in the USB implementation to do some very nasty stuff with the target computer.

When I was learning C, I would write my program, then run it step-by-step in the debugger (I was using Visual Studio at the time) until it was pointless to do so because I knew what would happen next. If I made a change and did not have a

Is the definition of talent that one does something noteworthy on a regular basis? I think that Phil Fish video that he linked really hit the nail on the head.

I think that's exactly why he's not going to get what he wants. He's not going to have a normal life with the comforting blanket of anonymity again.

I thought it wasn't uncommon for some reptiles to continue growing for their entire lives? Don't fish do it too? Edit: it also says on wikipedia that they slow down in adulthood, so maybe it is somewhat different http:/

From the article it seems like some of the symptoms are associated with inadequate sensing or awareness of social cues. That makes me wonder if taijiquan is a good exercise to help with that, as it trains sensitivity to small movements, in

It's disingenuous to claim a DSL is part of the language syntax. E.g. I would not consider the regex formatting specification as Python syntax. I mean, if we follow that line of thought, it's like saying Jinja is Python syntax.

It's a toy example; he's just trying to show how currying works, rather than why you should use it. If anything, it does show that one useful thing about partial application is that you can write a generic function (formatNames) a

Sort of like: Here's the data. Analysis is an exercise left to the reader? I guess what I'm trying to point out here is that while collecting data does take up most of the bulk of the work, data is meaningless without analysis an

I can read Perl, but the only way you'll get me to read it is to write a script with bugs in it and force me to debug it. It's fun in a masochistic sort of way. Anyway, Python and Haskell are my languages of choice now.

There's hs-tls ( http://hackage.haskell.org/package/tls-0.9.11 ), but being a newb to both crypto and Haskell, I can't tell you much about it.
