Somehow I have an impression that I tried something and could not repeat it in SML/NJ. I can recall it was about streams and lazy evaluations, but now I think that I just misused Lazy lib since I haven't used SML for a while. So t

Oh yes, and I can remember the episode when he jumped while explaining some idea in order to make this moment unforgettable. Shame on me, I forgot what idea it was but still remember his jumps :)

Few years ago I took a course by prof. Dan Grossman on Coursera, there was a part about SML and I so liked it (the language and the course). Now I want to read Okasaki's "Purely Functional Data Structures" book and try to rep

I used DB2 hosted on AS/400 at my previous job 4 years ago. I'm sure it is still in use. (the application is quite important for that company)

Also 'grad' means 'a town' in Russian (example: Leningrad). So I can read it either Neverton or Nikograd.

I consider freelance as a side project (miserable, I know) and I'm able to devote ~15 hours per week to it. Plus I take several hours for English, coursera and functional programming exercises. My next goal is to leave my job (it takes

As far as I understood the article, there is a possibility that our brain can choose one of experiment's outcome. So basically we do not change the outcome, but select one of possible options. And we continue living in that chosen real

So we have several facts: - your attention can change an particle's experiment outcome (you choose future) - we see quantum effects on tiny particles only - perhaps gravity makes quantum effects for "heavy" objects impossible

I understand your point of view. Of course I simplifed his reasons too much. But still, I have strong impression that he was too 'romantic' and passionate to be a winner who would remain in the history of mankind as one of the gre

Sounds quite cynical considering hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians who have died because of Napoleon's ambitions.

I completely agree it is ok to hear strange jokes and not to be offensive. But to hear 'if you can not handle a Monty Python reference maybe you shouldn't contribute' is too much for me.

by jerry40 8y ago
Can you imagine that there are people who did not watch Monty Python at all? I know it is not always easy for a western person to accept a fact that there are different cultures around the world.

Do not forget about Upwork taxes: Specifically, Upwork charges the freelancer a fee of: 20% for the first $500 billed with the client. 10% for lifetime billings with the client between $500.01 and $10,000. 5% for lifetime billings with the

It is risky to dump a client since the client can easily spoil your rating on Upwork.

As far as I understand, 'project_commits' and 'commits' have one-by-one relationship (project_commits.commit_id = commits.id). From my point of view it is a strange design since they could just add 'project_id'

But the words order is unambiguous (for me at least). I need to read about this topic more closely though.

I'm still not sure. I discussed this topic with my English teacher (he's from the UK) yesterday and he does not like how this phrase looks either.

Thanks! I was afraid it was yet another tricky English rule.

Does it mean we can create some machine (let's call it timegraph): - before some sport event (NBA finals 7th match) we write a question 'who will win, A (1st team name) or B (2nd team name)?' - do 2 experiments with photon an

Why do they remove comments? Do they delete commented code or textual comments?
29.
by jerry40 8y ago
Yes, I agree. Sometimes there were so tricky cases that it was impossible to explain why that tool matched those deals.

by jerry40 8y ago
It is the interesting idea to make this tool as generic as possible! Like a framework for matching different types of events based on some rules + a visual explanation for any chain of matched events. Perhaps I should think about this idea.
