Brilliant. So now you have no clutter but your office looks like it has chicken pox.

Very excited to give this a try!

A house is just a big box really. Why do humans love boxes so much?

The technique is called volume rendering. I'm not sure what library they specifically use but a popular one is VTK.

I also mentally started thinking about integral solutions. I wonder if it's also because of the variable names... a,b,c tend to be used to represent integers (e.g. Fermat's Last Theorem, Euclid's algorithm etc). x and y are m

Google Flights also tells you when a particular flight is often subject to delays. Very handy.

No, I was just giving some examples. If you follow your logic the UK needn't worry about not having a trade deal with the EU.

I happen to agree we should have an election, but I would point out: 1) Unlike EU commissioners, people can vote Theresa May out at the next general election. 2) The UK has a parliamentary democracy. It is not a presidential system. Theresa

Ok but the numbers you quoted assumed a linear relationship. In no way is it "almost certain" that investment in the UK will decrease. The evidence currently suggests the complete opposite. Look at the performance of the FTSE100 s

Chile, Switzerland and Iceland all have free trade agreements with China. The EU doesn't.

It isn't that simple. There isn't a linear relationship between the tax % and the revenue to the treasury. Lower taxes encourage more companies to set up in the UK. We saw this recently in the UK when the top rate of income tax wa

See how far you have to scroll down the list to find an university inside the EU (excluding the UK). https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankin...

EU money doesn't come out of thin air. It comes from taxpayers. The UK is a net contributor to the EU so the UK government could choose to fund all current commitments and still be better off.

Haskell has many great attributes but predictable performance isn't amongst them (laziness makes it difficult to reason about) so I doubt it is used for HFT.

I remember being impressed that the BeOS media player could play audio CDs backwards in real-time. Not really sure why you'd want to but it was quite a good party trick.

I doubt spending on AWS scales linearly with company revenue so I'm not sure why the author thinks amazon is getting a "cut" from competitors.

Because the market will bear it. People have jobs in London, but can't afford to live there. Driving usually isn't an option either because parking prices and London traffic are prohibitive. Ergo the train companies can charge bas

This is a really neat idea. I wrote test-scripts for cell culture machines a few years back. Great fun moving giant robotic arms around! If you can indeed encode all the primitives needed to more formally describe an experiment this would b

I don't think it's possible for something to be the 'most unique'.

Exactly this. Why are we trying to raise an army of procedural, object-oriented programmers?

Why would it need reflection? The name is there in the source code right in front of you.
