Js_of_ocaml [1] is a good alternative to BuckleScript for standard OCaml (non-Reason). For example, it works well with Core_kernel [2] and Async_kernel [3] to provide high-level functionality that is cross compatible between Unix applicatio

Didn't realize this system used a CVT-like system to generate electicity. I've generally been curious how this system seems to be significantly more complex yet more reliable than many modern internal combustion engine drivetrains

I also wonder why Apple allows some apps to accept payments via credit card yet others need to use the built in payment solutions? EDIT: some research later indicates that it's possible allowing a user to sign up outside the app (and o

How does it work? Searching for book store ( https://www.closient.com/?q=book_store the underscore was autocompleted) gave me results that were 1200+ km away from my current location. Other queries did the same.

I guess I wasn't too far off geographically with Romanian Wikipedia :) Keep up the great work at https://www.seznam.cz/ ! Lots of interesting search features, maps, etc.

I work on Google Search. Having one search engine per country doesn't seem like the correct approach to the problem. > Every country has a mammoth collection of valid results for your query. Having seen the corpus of content availab

It's also about a lot more than ride sharing. These companies are hoping to turn their LaaS (labor) into self-driving car fleets as soon as possible. A lot of that money is going to be poured into research.

Actually, I think that's incorrect. I'd say that the median person who knows how to drive is better off than the median person without that skill. Certainly the best person who doesn't know how to drive is better off than the

To get this straight, when they indicate 96% utilization of the uranium, they don't mean converting 96% of the total energy to electricity, as it is assumed that some will be lost along the way, right? If the above statement is true, w

Wait a second.. can you explain the 10x the max frequency part to accurately reconstruct the shape of the signal? It's my understanding that you just need 2x (two points in a sine wave) to construct a unique wave. If you're gettin

Wow. I can make sense of a little bit of the original source, but I wonder more how RegPack [0] works to compress it into that final submission! As a side note: I'm in college now and looking to propose an independent study on compress
