It's very flattering! It's perhaps the only time in internet computing circles where I repeatedly see people argue in a way that boils down to: 'I'm not as good as learning things at you'

The inaccesibility for mere mortals ruins any claim it has to being a representative of brutalism, IMO. Of course it looks nice, it was made by the City of London at eyewatering cost with absurd levels of craftmanship. The movement wouldn

Then they can also pass in an erroneous URI. You still need some way to deal with the ones you're not accepting.

Yep. They're very closely linked. http://prize.hutter1.net/ Note the preamble, FAQs, and that all of the winning entries are now neural networks.

Whereas if it doesn't happen nobody remembers your comment and you suffer no social consequences. Very +EV bet. Currently, it's ceded to a country hostile to mine. Great.

That's the point. If you say browser developers need money from the search giant to compete in browser development, you are saying that - right now - you can't compete in browser development without it. That is a cartel. We only

As a corollary: If you are a company that wants to have control over the browser market and ensure that it doesn't get taken away, you should contrive to have the funding depend on you continuing to control it. The current situation is

Comparing this site (that you choose to comment on) to what Reddit has done with those features, I'm not convinced. I will concede the features are very useful for developers to push algorithmic slop and walled gardens onto us.

The resources here are amplified elsewhere. As a specific example, expanding constexpr means a codebase I recently worked on can move away from template metaprogramming magic to something that is more idiomatic. That means iterating on that

For the layman, acquisition rumours are almost always bad news. Even as a premise. Your domain is enough of a concern for Bigcorp to spend executive time on. Bigcorp wants to acquire your employer because and they think they can get more va

Well, it's not to play Pokemon. Pokemon is a contrived example to research and display reasoning. That would be a useful step for the real world use-cases that aren't index in fine detail, as a human would. Actually, getting this

Books don't give us cancer like records do. Unfortunately, the PVC used will off-gas even when they're not being played[1], so this even applies to the 48%[2] of record buyers who never play them. [1] https://youtu.be&#

The optimal amount of train delay is non-zero. You need high redundancy to avoid many causes - and their knock on effects - and redundancy is antithetical to efficiency.

I believe the PC is hinting about station barriers. Major stations need you to scan a ticket (or con a guard) to get off the platform or out of the station. Minor stations sometimes don't - and if it's your station you'll kno

Your point might come across as disingenuous if you start by complaining about stock prices but immediately switch to cultural dogwhistle concerns.
