What is not cool is that ROOT was "designed" and built by people who had absolutely no idea how to run a large-scale software project. And it shows everywhere - it's one huge monolith that you have to constantly fight to do a

Every programmer should know how to represent "the numbers". Without reasonable representation your numbers are just useless crap.

You probably mean "to prevent military tension"? When tension already becomes war, it's sort of pointless to continue economic integration in the hope that it can stop war.

From all her posts I got quite different impression. I feel like she is abusing her position to spread misinformation about how particle physics actually works. Repeating again and again "You are all idiots and do not know what you do

So, if C printf is slower than assembler code that outputs "hello world", then C is garbage?

This is pure BS. The self-appointed progessives/wokes are not moderate or centrist in any way, but they have huge influence over Democrats' policy. And they will be responsible for the Democrats' losses in the following years

It is legit, but you need to prove your losses due to the breach.

Official exchange rate is meaningless as you cannot transfer dollars into or out of Russia. Based on some internal sources (not super exact, but still indicative), I think cash exchange on black market is closer to RUR 150 per USD today.

As a kid, I lived in a part of the world where we did not buy potatoes in the supermarket. We harvested them in autumn and stored until next summer, storage was a basement (cool, dry, dark place). By the spring it inevitably sprouted, we ha

Very good video, indeed. Explains how Putin and Russian propaganda machine turned Ukrainians into non-humans in perception of many Russian folks.

You realize that TASS is state-owned and just repeats the same propaganda that comes from Kremlin, don't you? EDIT: To be more specific, the news I heard on Ukrainian media was that corridors were indeed open for a brief period, but fi

Not going to happen, major reason for annexation was to keep Sebastopol as the major/only Russia navy base in the Black Sea. That reason will never vanish as there are no other suitable locations to relocate that base.

I thought UNIX was case-sensitive from very beginning (though early terminals probably were not). Also digits/punctuation can be counted too, in fact '.' is a (shell) command.

When people start recognizing that Mayor Breed is a part of the problem, and not part of the solution, we may get a chance for solving SF issues.

Lua version of the code is incomprehensible. Could it be that if you implement the same thing in Python it will also run faster?

Such a BS. FB imagining that they are their own Internet but failing in a most miserable way because they need actual Internet to communicate.
