Leave the field to the censors, create an alternative, and hope that they will not pursue you? Or stand your ground and fight them wherever they are? That is the question.

A note from the author: go to line 126 Finds all items partially equal (not necessarily literally equal) to val. In a generic slice in ascending or descending order. Returns the Ra…

It is worth mentioning Jan Hus: Orthographia Bohemica, 1406 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthographia_bohemica which introduced diacritical marks to facilitate expressing all the …

Granite blocks that slot together.

This is unfortunately just one of many examples of generally widespread malaise of conflating correlation with causality. It is especially common in certain "sciences" which typica…

The orbits of the electrons very much follow the pythagorean (natural numbers) laws.

It is sad that even in this case, the orthodox line that "the ancients were ignorant about the movement around the Sun" is pushed by the very people who perhaps ought to know bette…

Lichess is so good that I spent more time there than I probably should have.

You can make that one truck descend five times faster, giving the same output.

"The principle suggests us to focus..." Should not it be: "The principle suggests that we focus..."?

"...and millions of dollars in federal funds he’d spent developing the attack ...." Sounds like rather expensive 30 lines of code.

It would be more efficient to use a pressure tank half filled with water and use water pump and Pelton turbine for the energy cycling.

FB predictably reacted only when an article came out. It seems likely that they blatantly censor all kinds of things for their own partisan reasons. It is only when you have a frie…

That fiasco with "parental controls" blacklists reminds me of when I was doing admissions for one of UKs universities and suddenly we stopped getting any new applications. School l…

"It is not bout killing off long words" rings rather hollow when it is followed by a list of longer words to replace with shorter ones. It is not the fault of the innocent words th…

Am I the only one who finds The List of Words to Avoid rather depressing? I mean I get what they are trying to do: minimise the number of letters. Yet, language is also about varie…

Of course this is a pro-nuclear article. It is by "UK Nuclear Institute", run by UK nuclear industry. First published in their "Nuclear Future". Come on, did you really expect it t…

I was Richard's tester, in as much as I was one of the first to reach Wizardhood and thus able to use FOD (Finger of Death) on annoying and misbehaving newbies. I guess that was a …

Postal voting is beset with problems but I would hope that it is not a racial issue, as the author seems to be suggesting. It does sound like a right mess though.

I initialised something to 1e64 instead of 1f64. It somewhat affected the results. By 64 orders of magnitude ;) The Rust compiler, always so full of complaints at other times, was …

Did not read past the subtitle, which has a verb (is) missing. Somewhat cast a shadow of doubt over the linguistic expertise of the author.
