Oh wow, it almost like Yandex delivery in some districts of Moscow. Though there it is a land drone.

This is so blatantly wrong. On macs it became a little bit hrder very recently (you need to tick a checkmark in the system setting to allow untrusted program running) otherwise you…

The first example (signed integer overflow) is no longer valid in newer standards of C. Now it should use the two-complement semantics and no UB.

All the references are on the wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenwick_tree

While it might be ok to use colloquially the term, "Fenwick trees" since it became a common name, calling them "a Fenwick's work" and not mentioning Ryabko is a clear misattributio…

The proof that e is irrational is very simple, follows from its famous expansion as a sum of inverse factorials. Non-algebraicity is a can of worms though.

I thought the problem with the IPv6 is that it incorporates a lot of bloat compared to the IPv4.

I think the text is geared towards people with some mathematical background who want to understand learning theory. Besides it is clearly stated that this chapter is a review (so i…

He worked in Russia more than in any other country and died in St Petersburg being a Russian citizen.

Yeah, the greatest Russian mathematician.

In all recent US wars civilian casualties vastly outnumber military ones. In the Ukrainian war civilian casualties constitute less than 10% of overall casualties. Outstanding preci…

You are being nitpicky about the names while missing the substance. The first battle was the French capture of Saarbrucken. So no, Prussia did not "attacked first".

>Germany attacked France in July 1870 It was France that declared war on Germany.

Are any of those things bad by themself or in combination?

It's no "the poor" its the thieves. Are you insinuating that all poor people are thieves?

The problem is not stated clearly.

This universal prior is both theoretically useful and help conceptualize the real-world compression techniques.

This is a misconception. The main result in the Kolmogorov complexity theory that there is precisely the "universal prior" that comes simply from the notion of computability.

A proper city has plenty of places for children to play even in its center. But maybe I'm just an outdated european.

Your comment would be relevant if the guy written something to the devs. He has a sacred right to rant on his own page as he likes.

in posix (so in any reasonable C implementation) printf is thread-safe by default, so your comment doesn't make much sense.

Why it is even relevant? Godel's incompletness theorem applies to almost any strong formal system with self-referential abilities, so if you want to do a good formalization, you bo…

>I'm not talking about Gödel or unprovable statements, because even if something is not provable it might be constructable. >Or proving the Collatz Conjecture. You need only basic …

I'd appreciate if you point me to a study showing that vaccinated spread COVID at a lesser rate. As far as i know, currently the findings are inconclusive at best. Lower risk of se…

not only can, but there is evidence that current covid vaccines can only higher you chances of milder disease. The probability of you getting infection and being a spreader is the …
