For columnar data storage I think. The description references Parquet and they appear to benchmark against Parquet, Vortex, and Lance.

Sounds like they're saying that since the distribution doesn't come from measuring or calculating the probability of something , it has the form of a probability distribution but i…

This title is clickbait. From the abstract: "The Index captures technical exposure, where AI can perform occupational tasks, not displacement outcomes or adoption timelines." (emph…

I think they prefer "Jovians".

Well no actually it'd still clear to me that they mean the the multiplication of 3 different variables X, N, and D. I don't think of it as eliding obvious operators. Rather in math…

I assume they use N⋅D rather than ND to make it explicit these are 2 different variables. That's not necessary for 6N because variable names don't start with a number by convention…

Mosh looks very cool, though I've never used it. Does Screen provide some advantage over tmux in this setup?

My calculations says that moving 1cm up or down earths gravity well (at the surface) changes the acceleration of gravity about 5x more than the acceleration you'd feel from a 100kg…

From tfa: Often, randomness is thought of as something you want to keep hidden, such as when generating passwords or cryptographic keys. However, there are many applications where …

The chance that a positive result is a false positive depends on the false positive rate of your test and on total population statistics. E.g. imagine your test has a 5% false posi…

Why does YYYY exist? Is there some common need I'm not familiar with? Also, I clicked on the title because I wanted to know what format Yyyy was... I feel mislead.

The second is (and has been) defined independent of length for a while. It's the time it takes for a certain number oscillations of a caesium atom. The meter was redefined as the d…

We (the humans) would fit into Texas regardless of whether the land we owned would ;-)

According to your link, both of those are applied to extracted stem cells which are then reintroduced. The ability to perform clonal expansion and DNA sequencing makes it possible …

Not really. You actually have a unique set of sensory neurons that tell you the spacial orientation of your body by measuring muscle/ligament stretch: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wi…

Sure, then they're left with a pretty incriminating pattern of behavior when someone objects to the officers behavior during that traffic stop.
