I think Roald Dahl had one story about a man who went to great lengths to eat a ghost.

Are you referencing strictness analysis?

I am very interested in learning more / honing my design skills,

But

Like everyone else my time is extremely limited. Could you say a few words about DDD stood out for you and what other books you might compare it to?

My 1st grader loooves tape. And dolls. And we order Amazon regularly. We have purchased one of the simple cardboard knives.

The simple level is to turn the Amazon boxes into doll houses.

Slightly more advanced is to make furniture for the dolls. Like a simple shoebox quickly becomes a Barbie closet.

For bigger boxes, given the right shape, it is easly to cut and fold a high hair.

It blends the CLI by incorporating scripting engine?! That’s not what mean by cli friendly.

oooh. you got them. Like figuring out which timezone the user was in is impossible. What if the user intentionally set their clock wrong to mess with support.

You are being silly.

Spacebar is next page is old-as-ages terminal convention.

But it has no place in a browser.

Why are we now?

It’s early here, but it think the gist of it is using Bayes to quantify:

Given that the universe would seem to get more hospitable at older ages,

why are we alive now?

IIUC the most likely explanation is some secondary force (aliens) to modify the future hospitality.

prefer a local office with hybrid attendance so I can meet cow orkers face to face. No ads. No gambling. No cars.

How do you feel about borges?

I assume the name is a reference to merkle hash trees, but I don’t really see the connection.

Can someone spell it out?

I think the insight here is that garbage is garbage and the generational hypothesis holds for DB trees as well.

So if we track and treat young nodes specially, we can then promote a subset of them into the permanent tree and dispose of the rest. Per the hypothesis, nodes in the permanent tree will also die, but at a lower rate.

Imho

Obl: everytime we do a font thread, I ask if anyone knows a font that is

* proportional

* sans

* has programming ligatures

* clearly differentiates 1l and 0O

The closest I’ve come was iosevka. But it was not quite proportional and I wasn’t font of its looks.

I came across this a few years back when numbly watching the dependencies scroll by during some Java install.

“Disruptor is a fairly presumptuous name for a package” I thought. So I looked into it. It fed musings and thought experiments for many walks to and from the T. I love the balance between simplicity and subtlety in the design.

If i recall, it was a dependency for log4j, which makes sense for high volume logging.

There was a website aimed at something similar called “the factual” but they never really got the algorithm off the ground before they were bought - by yahoo news by all things.

Thanks for this. It was a blind spot I didn’t realize I had.

It seems that you could add mechanical rigidity and remove the freedom of rotation by adding washers into the mix: washers that have small extrusions to for into the slots next to the bolt. Parallel, perpendicular, or at dome fixed angle.

But I imagine these aren’t needed since everyone who builds with nails or t slots realizes the rotation must be countered not in the joint, but in external bracing. (Aka triangles)

I want someone to make the ugly shirt.

No I’m referencing the fact that both had pretty strong teams overlapping in Northeastern University.

I swear by the lowest end brother duplexing monochrome laser printer. Mine is the dw2270 which was <$150 at the time. Rock solid. No fuss ever.

I’ve praised it here before. It’s the sort of printer that I wonder they stay in business selling because each customer is a customer for life but only buys one item.

I always assumed racket was built on twobit/larceny.

I never could wrap my head around the context variables or whatever they were called, where the language would pick a random variable from your local environment and pass that as an argument to the function call.

Not the full column.

You pump out the top x feet of water from the pipe. The equalizing levels of inside and outside the pipe is what drives the upward flow through the membrane.

Checking if site connection is secure

And I left. Irony all exhausted

The first step is to encode some decent password cracking challenge into an NP complete problem - choose 3 SAT or something similarly well understood. Then encode that 3sat problem into the paper’s solution domain.

If you get a password in polynomial time you are golden.

Paywall

What really steams my clams are sites that wholesale lift reams of copy, minus introduction and summary, from Baeldung and others that do the good work, but pepper them with enough google bait so that they are ranked higher than the original. (I speculate that detecting and down-ranking this practice is not considered a priority by google because the copy-cats are riddled with ads so generate more revenue per organic result listing)

I find this collusion unethical. And should be illegal, but I hesitate to ask our lawmakers to understand the nuance when their lobby income stream relies on the opposite.

You never run out of toner in a cartridge. Just give it a shake for another lease on life. It’s like Zeno’s paradox. You just have to shake it increasingly often.

Isn’t it “self”, really? [1]

Assume your python program is fully static and well behaved from a compiler perspective. JIT compile it, and observe what it does, so that you can invalidate the compiled code and re-JIT it if it does something overly dynamic.

Incidentally, what JVM did. (I’m sure now it’s been tweaked beyond recognition)
