Not sure if it could be extended here, but I've seen a lock free hash map that supported lock free reallocation by allocating new space and moving each entry one by one, either whe…

Is this just an issue with the way the editor is presenting the LSP feedback to you?

I use an android (and iOS I think) app called Xodo. The "reader mode" re-flows the PDF into a screen-width single column like an e-book. The latest update really buried the option …

Most teachers I know vastly prefer to grade on paper rather than digitally. Easier to just circle sections and write comments with a pen than deal with the review features in a doc…

Usually it's done so that the teacher can tell how long the paper is without counting words. Times New Roman at x pt with 1 inch margins fits a well known average number of words p…
