I try to avoid the common traps, but it can be tricky. I also impose this additional constraint on myself, which the game doesn't enforce, that I can't reuse letters that have been marked gray. Sometimes you just can't think

I've never heard of candlepin bowling before this, but now that I'm reading about it, I'm surprised it's not more popular. It looks like a lot of fun. The fact that fallen pins are not cleared seems like it would lead to

An honest question: why is this being downvoted? I thought that downvoting is meant to be used when someone is trolling or bringing the level of discussion down, not when you simply disagree with someone's point. I mean sure, it's

Thanks for being so thoughtful about this. I think you made the right decision, although I can see how others might feel otherwise since the guideline is so subjective.

This sounds like a good technique that can be fully automated. I wonder why this isn't the default behavior or at least something you could easily request.

Ceaseless, decades-long propaganda that US is being taken advantage of and that America should come first certainly played a part in inflating that number in minds of a lot of people. When it comes to stuff like this I think that most peopl

I wonder if the surge in productivity would hold up if you also take into account the productivity of delivery people, who are with the move to delivery apps as much a part of the kitchen-to-table pipeline as the people working in the kitch

Agreed. I feel like the right test would be: "OK, you can use AI to easily generate these pac-man prototypes in an hour or two. But once you get past the 'wow I was able to get all this with so little work', you still have a

Agreed. It's also free to stream. I've seen it a couple of times and I keep marveling at the sheer strangeness of how it all played out.

This is a tough question since what's best for the team and what's personally best for the manager's career may be in conflict, at least when it comes to the long-term. A manager who doesn't do any coding will over time

Thanks but that doesn't really solve any of the issues. It still just creates a new folder on the bottom instead of the current selection.

I always feel like I'm missing something, but I find the creation of new folders really awkward. I'd like to just be able to right-click on a folder or even on a file or between two files and have it create a new folder there. But

I am not a lawyer, but my understanding is that's just how the justice system works. Reasonable people can disagree about what exactly a complicated statement says, since language is full of ambiguities. People have been discussing wha

Would you care to elaborate which law you helped to pass? Also, can you link to some good resources for someone who wants to get off the sidelines and get more involved in Chicago politics, whether the resources are on FB or elsewhere? I&#x

An entertaining read, even if I disagree with a lot of the ratings. Bananas get 1/5 for logistics?! They are the perfect portable snack. Grapes are definitely not guilt free - most table grapes are way too sweet for my taste. I can eat

Yeah, this makes sense to me. I started developing some of these similar intuitions while watching a visualization another commenter posted. Here are some things I realized: 1. The first pass (I think you call it the preprocessing step) is

I agree. At first I thought it was doing something very simple but I am not so sure anymore. When you check the condition for the swap, you realize it almost works counterproductively while i<j because it keeps pushing smaller numbers in

This is interesting. I've never heard of this service, but it totally makes sense. It makes me muse: what would it take to have a completion bond service in the software development market? If you were running one of these insurance c

Completely agree with the reduced power recommendation. That really helps evenly heat foods that start popping in the microwave or have hot spots when taken out. The few extra minutes are usually not a big deal anyway.

I agree that the perpetual part is kind of gimmicky, but having a stew for a week or two and stretching it out with additional ingredients can be a big time saver and, as you said, in some ways it gets better with time as it's cooked m

I don't think that's a big concern since everything gets cooked into oblivion. With something like this, nobody is trying to hit some sweet spot and get vegetables or whatever else to be al dente. Everything is boiled for many hou

Does anyone have more information regarding whether this effect is only observed in humans? I've always assumed that this is just how most animal bodies work, for the obvious energy and resource conservation reasons.

The way I think of this is that there is no shame in Jeffries not having as good and intuitive grasp of the problem as Norvig. After all, this kind of problem is almost tailor-made for Norvig's skill set. Like many of us who haven'

Ah I see what you mean. Yeah, that makes sense. If the host behavior is not clearly stated then the right answer would indeed be "it can't be determined from available information".

I guess I don't understand why you think "I don't know" is the only correct answer. It's clearly not, which is the point of the problem in the first place. It's a bit hard to grok, but once you do, it's cl

Agreed. Not to mention that a liar doesn't necessarily have to mean someone who tells a falsehood in every single statement. It could just mean someone who frequently tells falsehoods. Or, more deviously, someone who wants to cause max
