    The HTTP IETF RFC (2616) states: > The first digit of the Status-Code defines the class of response. The last two digits do not have any categorization role. There are 5 values for…

    To be more precise, ZFS snapshots are mostly just a timestamp reference, similar to how a git commit is just a reference to a git object. Writes don't change the value of the files…

    The fact that it’s a “non functioning future” is exactly why people are concerned. It’s entirely possible to regulate a set of activities out of existence if you make the cost of c…

    Are you seriously saying that buying something and throwing it away is better than donating the same amount of money?

    The MVP for that system wouldn't be all patient data, it'd be just one metric or something that you could harden the system's other properties against. If you leak one metric, you …

    At the height of the great depression only ~23% of workers were out of jobs. That's hardly 100% during a "downturn." At 100% unemployment do you really think our current system of …

    How are you going to view the diff between more than two temporally adjacent commits? Or find the commit upon which an arbitrary line of source code was added? Or x, or y, or z rea…

    Then again, maybe the alternative methods of funding won't emerge and AdBlock will destroy the web as we know it.

    In Haskell, and I assume Scala, you can name types of the same form, so I might say a TimeSeries is a list of floating point values. If I use that data type, you can't accidentally…

    Actually the primary correlate of SAT scores is not intelligence but wealth.

    There is an inconsistency in naming: you call it "flags" at the top but "options" at the bottom. I think you should also say "Regular expression quick reference" rather than "Regex…
