    Given that the author's post and comments all sound like they were run through an LLM, I'm not at all surprised.

    No matter what you do, you still have to deal with diffraction [1], which means the resolution is inversely proportional to the aperture. I think the Trump/Iran release was estimat…

    The overwhelming consensus among (secular) biblical scholars and historians alike is that the Egyptian Exodus very likely never occurred. The Pentateuch is a work of mythology. The…

    You're 100% correct that this was a case of good presentation and not investigation by the reporter. Questions: 1. Can you point me where to find more info on UCS ignoring results …

    C++, especially modern standards of the language, offer far more than OOP features. /If/ you know the language and tools well, there is no reason that C++ won't be as efficient in …

    As the article and others here have said, if you have the requisite proficiency and understanding of C++ and the C++ compiler(s) that you're using, and if you are using a high qual…

    Np. That was just the first thing I found on Google; b'tselem does not have a neutral point of view. But the fact is that the wall is being built mostly on the West Bank side of th…

    The reason that the barrier is outrageous is not that it's made out of concrete; it's because of its location. It criss-crosses into the West Bank [1]. [1] http://www.btselem.org/d…

    Probably RTL would be more correctly known as "Register Transfer Level" as in a level of abstraction, in contrast to for example the lower "gate" level of abstraction.

    I think that this reputation is waaaay overblown, due to the mostly futile efforts of the Académie Française to preserve the "pure" French language. As an American who spent a seme…

    One thing that I can't help thinking about in all of this... would Apple have contested this case had the Snowden leaks never occurred?

    The std::tie function can also solve this problem in most situations, if you are stuck with C++ 11.

    This would be a really cool illustration if you could solve the closed loop transfer function, and display the locations of the closed loop zeros and poles.

    Yep, and as someone else mentioned, flying right over one of the more heavily militarized areas of the planet (Kashmir). Also, why would Russia choose to hijack a plane full of Chi…

    The scenario described in the article could only have gone down with the support of a state level actor. In foreign affairs, states are mostly rational and risk-averse. The risk in…

    The Sparrow and Standard are "semi-active radar homing missiles", meaning that they have a radar seeker head and no emitter. They require an external illumination radar (from the a…

    The advantage of changeset evolution is obvious to me. But as a longtime Mercurial user, I don't grok the benefit of bookmarks. Do you have a simple example where a bookmark is mor…

    I'm still on Python 2.7. I've built up a lot of infrastructure at work surrounding the "scipy stack". Are there any major libraries that have not yet been ported to Python 3? I'd b…
