I think it's a reference to this pact: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov%E2%80%93Ribbentrop_Pac...

There is strong correlation of top countries in the list with the list of happiest countries in the world. https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/happiest-... Top 10 in…

Saunas (at least the way we enjoy them here in Finland) can be pretty humid, because we throw water on the stones of the stove. But throwing too much water can make it intolerable,…

R0 > 1 rings any bells?

Your strategy is not optimal. If you want to be efficiently freeloading, you should not be announcing your position. Freeloading with vaccination only works if just a small enough …

I used to be heavily involved in the demoscene during late 80's/early 90's. (And still occasionally visit demoparties.) I think the best thing in making demos was the feeling of ac…

This is not about peak sensitivities. The RGB colors are used as primaries because they provide a large response on one type of cones, and as small as possible response on the two …

CMY/RGB is not an arbitrary choice for color model. It's the best approximation for stimulating the color receptors in the human eye. RYB on the other hand is just historical model…

It's an even older Aggression logo https://demozoo.org/graphics/148490/ (from times before Jani joined Aggression).

Now that the Atari ST part of the article is out as well, I'll add some corrections regarding ST graphics format. The article states that "There are no bitplanes here like on the A…

Typically you'll see a "wave" of blinking emergency lights arriving well before the sudden congestion, you pass that on for those behind you, and prepare to slow down.

I think the intuition gap comes from the misleading arts education about colour. It's still common to teach in schools that primary colors for paint are blue, red and yellow - when…

I suppose you don't live in Finland, because I've never heard opinions like that from a fellow Finn. Last night the outdoor temperature here was -20 C (-4 F). In conditions like th…

I'm from Finland, and I think the fine system here works well. There are some crucial differences from the US system however. First, fines don't go to the local police departments,…

I think it's important to know when a theoretical framework can be applied to the full extent and when the real-life situation is actually a subset that behaves differently. In thi…

Late to the party, but the proof requires integers with infinite amount of bits. With real-life programming languages there's limited number of bits in integers, and this means tha…
