"deliberately (created and escaped)" is very implausible yes. "(deliberately created) and escaped" not so much though.

That one I can't be too mad about. Better FIFA gets the profits instead of ticket scalpers.

Simplex noise is nice because it's more efficient to calculate, especially for larger dimensions but it has a noticeably different look to it so it's not a drop-in replacement.

Is it so hard to explain what the term "High-NA" is supposed to mean at the start of your article?

Transputers have nothing to do with quantum computing. They're completely classical computers.

If I search for "Open AI" on google right now the first search results are openai.com, chatgpt.com and the OpenAI wikipedia page. None of which are open AI.

The cosmopolitan capital of Tórshavn. Population 14k people.

Because then you have to add that you mean UTC since the time format looks like local time. With beats it's obvious from the formatting that it's internet time.

I almost think that one was a bit too early. Having a "universal" way to share time that's not timezone ambiguous would be pretty handy these days.

There's for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_Chinese_timekeepin...

You can't clean them without leaning dangerously outside for one.

Sliding windows are terrible though. Why would you want those?

The person doing the hiring would be criminally liable and probably go to prison. The corporation itself would at best pay a fine.

I wonder if a source-based distro like Gentoo would have made OP's life slightly easier. Portage for instance should allow you to maintain a set of patches to automatically apply w…

>This is literally not a problem. All Python projects use 4-space indentation. Tell that to the one team at my old workplace that used spaces for all their scripts. Like I said it’…

Well yes. Say you check out a project that's all tabs but your editor is using spaces for indentation. You change a line and now the program is broken. Calling the auto-formatter w…

You can't autoformat broken indentation with significant whitespace since it would make the program not parse (or parse incorrectly)

It‘s a source of problems with mismatched tabs/spaces being used for indentation between team members for fairly little upside. Imo it also makes moving blocks of code more cumbers…

Adding significant whitespace to a new language feels like a bad choice. It's not terrible but I do think it was a bad call for Python in hindsight.
