    Wealth inequality is a direct cause of authoritarianism and is not benign.

    I’m sorry but no. Maybe it’s my ignorance of TM’s, but O(log n) doesn’t read all input by definition. It doesn’t follow that it is therefore _independent_ of the input size. What m…

    What is the relationship between n and N? log(n) is still unbounded so I can’t make sense of your comment.

    Obviously by how well they teach, but if we give them a stake in their teaching performance, their teaching should improve even more…

    If it’s a federal or state tax break it shouldn’t affect cities’ revenue too much?

    This immediately reads like gobbledygook to me, while the parent is easy to follow. I’m not trying to dunk on you, but I can’t help to note that the denseness of math is too much f…

    This would only give employees a giant incentive to tank the company this way…

    There is nothing wrong with apt and dpkg. It’s just that Ubuntu infected apt with their poison by making ‘apt install firefox’ install a snap package and they’re poised to do it wi…

    Debian testing doesn’t get security updates. I’d rather run Debian sid (unstable). But tbh I don’t run Debian myself. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianTesting It is a good idea to ins…

    CFDs are zero-sum. They don’t create or remove wealth in aggregate.

    so is it: -Dlog4j.formatMsgNoLookups=true or -Dlog4j2.formatMsgNoLookups=true ? Every project seems to list one or the other, even this cheat-sheet seems to list both in a random w…

    It's a matter of risk that I'm paying for to avoid, not absolute quality. I would not wager my life on a random doctor in Africa even while 90% of doctors there might be more skill…

    This is what api's are for. A telemetry service asks each service for the specific data, combines them and outputs the combined metrics. This doesn't really break a barrier, but it…

    I really wish micro was the default editor on Linux, nano's hotkeys are completely bonkers.

    Even though I didn't expect much I'm still disappointed after using it a little. It's very rough around the edges. When I run 'winget list' It says I have Firefox 88.0 installed an…
