I am not going to even click that. "superposition of probabilities" is not a real thing, merely a mathematical tool. The definition of probability still involves something that is …

I think drinking too much is why we are having this problem in the first place, so maybe people should just stop it. You'd end up with Maßßen and Maszen eventually. Ich geh dann ma…

I maintain that ss is a legitimate substitute in standard German orthography, just as ae for ä etc. not only because I can't be arsed to switch key layouts, but because ß is a usel…

That does very much sound like magic. The wave function is in principle just describing the probability of measuring a value, if I recall correctly. What you make of it is but an a…

Skepticism. What's not observable now might become observable eventually.

The linked page notes that the Alexa provided stats might be considered inaccurate. Either way, it has youtube.com on place 2. If that is counted as English, which I simply suppose…

While I completely agree with the sentiment, I still wonder what's the difference to graphics. Is drawing easier, for lack of a better word, than gfx-programming? I would argue thi…

By your own argument, this is obviously not primarily intended to teach coding.

> an eke-name I'm not buying this. "eke" as "also" may give the sense "by-name", alright. What irks me is the lack of explanation of the rebracketing, which would appear like a mis…

My pet peeve in English as well as German is conjunctive use of "that" or "dass" respectively. I'm glad that you got right at least :)

No, I don't believe this. Rather, as you note inhibition, you rationalize an excuse before hand, here that you have no control over your actions, and as that has so far always work…

Cut it out. I think it could be better. A lot of oversees development has not been documented well and "studied" on an ad-hoc basis. The incorrect division of Italian "(n)arancia" …

> ... the "status" of English by making it more latinized (things like, not ending sentences in prepositions). very interesting, that's something I'd really need to learn more abou…

not only that but it comes with access to learning material built in. Still though, English is probably not the majority spoken language, much less absolute majority, even on the n…

With all due respect, madams and sirs, I beg to differ.

0 is a symbol, but that symbol has quite literally no value. It is special that way.

That's not easy to prove, because nobody can look into the quasar. The question still stands. What are "those objects"?

I did say "on the boundaries", though

> those objects What are you talking about, quasars? They emit heaps of light for all I know.

Old shaky hands aiming a looking glass at one of two moving elephants standing close by each other would tell a different story, perhaps. I'm not sure how well established Virtual …

No, no, null is not meaningful. That's the whole point. It is meaningful as neutral element of a ring, as center of a coordinate system or as limit of some function, sure, but only…
