It is unclear what leaving the city quickly has to do scaling or resources per capita. You seem to value this; most big city dwellers do not.

> The conjecture was widely believed to be true — if so, it would have automatically validated several other important results in the field — but the community greeted the new deve…

It's more to the point that disruptions tend to be very disruptive, too frequent, not well understood, and the reset takes a really long time. But you're right that this does not q…

He cannot name and shame them because this did not really happen.

Their Lumia with the Windows OS was great too. Unfortunately no market => no apps => death. But I loved it when I had it. They made great phones no doubt.

Too many. I still write /bin/sh syntax (I know it's a symlink to bash now but I mean the old school sh). Anything that requires bash-that-isnt-sh is usually better written in perl …

The oil industry is not larger. I believe oil and gas is not even a separately measured category so the numbers you're getting are probably including many sectors across the board …

You're right about the respect part, but it does in fact compute. We (I'm Indian) treat books with respect, but we have no preservation ethic beyond treating them with respect. An …

It absolutely is. For a language whose biggest selling factor is embeddability with C/C++, that decision (and I'm being polite) is a headscratcher (along with the other similar sou…

You mean there's no sliding scale here as in tax brackets? Citation please?

Same. But I don't conflate Koolaid with arithmetic.

Do you know why people in Okinawa and Sardinia have great longevity? Is it Ikigai, or living simple village life, or eating maggot infested cheese? No, it's because of lack of reco…

A lot of responses from people who have never taken a cruise, how typical. There is a lot of nickel and diming but floor plans and room views tend to be shown when you're buying. E…

I think you must live in a city. Literally everyone in your 1000 people rural area would be affected by 10 shootings.

What? The redesign is way simpler than the original website.

Irrelevant. The article is about ROI, not about happiness. Income isn't the only measure of, I don't know, longevity, calorie intake, hair color, number of children, etc., either, …

You must be in some good writers' microcosm. A lot of human technical writers really write like that.

You are reversing cause and effect. You "perish" by being unable to procure grants. Grants require a publishing record. Why? Because estimating success is harder than simply lookin…

Yes? Title has no mention about specific regions. Abstract mentions specific regions. Even your comment is clickbait: you only include the title and a sentence that does not mentio…

The problem with Make is people abuse it with phony targets. If there's discipline in writing Makefiles and most targets are files, Make works quite well due to the basically simpl…

This is just your run of the mill STEM looking down upon other fields argument. There is rampant fraud in STEM. If anything it's harded to detect because the people who do it are b…

You're using geoemetrical construction not dissimilar from proving the theorem for a != b. So it's not in the spirit of this new method. No one disputes there are easier methods to…
