First one water is lower. Ball is more dense than water, in boat displaces its weight in water, in water displaces it's volume Dip for hill roll is faster

Java engineers write lots of HTML in java docs:)

You can enforce at the org level to only allow actions pinned to hashes. You can also choose a small whitelist of actions to allow.

First sentence starts with horrible antisemitism. Can someone fix it? (on my phone with kids so not in a position to)

With certain macros disabled like .map the runtime is O(code length)!

You can describe spinning particles in flat space and AdS space really nicely with twistors using this

Or similarly I flip a coin a thousand times, but only tell you when it's heads and don't tell you how many flips I did.

Not sure I completely agree as you often use only a small part of a library

This sounds pretty easy to hack together with 10s of lines of python

well he certainly mentions a result where if there is an everywhere timelike Killing vector field (+ some other assumptions) you can prove that Hawking radiation doesn't occur and …

I'm not sure what more you want from him, there are many papers and even a textbook linked? It's bloody John Baez, the man knows his stuff. On you actual point, it is shocking beca…

Does this support time travel queries? Does it support reading everything from one snapshot to another? (This is missing in Athena) If yes to both, does it respect row level delete…

Why OrderedDict when dict is already ordered?

If anything ICBMs are better at moving fast and breaking things than the tech industry

The lemniscate really looks like a homoclinic orbit in a 2d dynamics problem

I don't know how they did it, but verifying Bells inequality would do it if you made many pairs

Translation: There is no better way to write with long words than to numeronymise them everywhere! Or for the less obtuse among us, this version will only numeronymise words with l…

I'm not sure I agree. That sort of type conversion involves inclusions, while the examples Buzzard talked about involved isomorphisms

Sealed interfaces in java 21 allow pattern matching

OpenAPI + OpenAI and now FastAPI and FastAI How long until there's a RESTAI company?

I've found the exact opposite of that in practice. Had way more problems with tearing down CDK stacks

I think Istio docs are great! I do agree that it's complicated, and I think their API is more confusing that it needs to be. The ontology of DestinationRules, VirtualServices, Serv…

I think you end up with no degrees of freedom in 2+1 and below
