Even if it violates conservation of momentum, that doesn't really mean anything, since this is all happening on a quantum scale. It would definitely violate physics if you didn't need to apply a constant energy source for this to

Being able to read is helpful. They are "zero cost abstractions". Yes, they are not zero cost, big surprise (I thought they wouldn't produce assembly instructions). A pointer is an indirect reference. But the abstraction arou

What are you talking about? unique_ptr contains a pointer, that's it. Yes, to represent a pointer you have to contain a point. Passing it on or not makes zero difference and using a website that return unoptimized C++, is not a good pl

Yeah or looking at it the other way around. If this would replace your human reviewer, then maybe you would do good to have some serious discussions with your HR department...

Yeah, but you do you realize that DDG is Bing. And while DDG does not track you, Bing does. So essentially the reason why DDG kinda works well is because a lot of user are still being tracked by Bing.

Interesting, wouldn't it make A LOT of sense for the US government, or any government to heavily invest in this space, since it get two flies with one stone (i.e. better energy for land AND sea AND potentially space)?

Probably two things. On one hand, our theoretical understanding of quantum effects may not have come far enough to write a traditional simulation program. Or doing so would take years or even millions of years, or both. Quantum computers ca

Agreed. Cars should mostly be banned from any urban & sub-urban spaces, replaced by fully automated public transportation. Most people should not be allowed to drive a car, as they are physically incapable of safely operating it.

In Vancouver there is no such things as peripheral vision, but that is not due to mobile phone use. Indicators are also optional. I am impressed how there is not a crash every second. When you drive here with a bike you basically know that

AFAIK, I can't remember an instance where AWS raised prices. So if they were to undercut someone in prices, they would not be able to raise them again, so I find this scenario unlikely to happen.

There is nothing wrong with being average. You should have enough energy to swim above the event horizon, where bad things happen (i.e. financial instability and job insecurity, the root of all evil). If you don't have the motivation t

For a few years? What kind of lifestyle do you have that a few millions only last a few years? I really doubt with that math you would have been able to save a few millions in the first place, unless you won a lottery.
