I don't think so. For n=3 you can have 000, 001, 010, 100. All 4 (n+1) are pairwise orthogonal. However, I don't think js8 is correct as it looks like in 2^n you can't have more than n+1 mutually orthogonal vectors, as if

Putin made a claim that "everything goes according to the plan", but the fact is that there are arrests/firings of the top brass, which kinda heavily implies that Putin is fully aware of the failure. https://twitte

The only reasonable explanation I've heard is that Putin has surrounded himself with all sorts of yes-men and that those yes-men basically told him that most of the people would gladly welcome Russia's forces. This kinda explains

I think right now only a single-digit number of people in the world can produce a convincing fake. And while they could be working for the government, I don't think they do.

For the exact same reason you will find a lot of videos claiming that Ukrainian military shot down MH17.

If you wear anything more than a t-shirt nobody would even suspect that you have a sixpack. Unless you're actually big, even a basic button-down shirt hides all your gains. How many and how often do other people see you shirtless? I&

I'm claiming that you are not having war on drug. At best you're doing jack shit, at worst you're actually sabotaging the war on drugs. I wrote an exact same response to a sibling comment: https://news.ycombinator

I honestly don't know if that was a police trap or not. But considering how easy it is to find drugs in NYC I wouldn't be surprised if it was legit. Like ... at least half of chess hustlers look like they're on something. e
