Very interesting work! Did you guys get a chance compare with [1]. These seen to be the standard for high-performance not Crypto RNGs. [1]: https://github.com/DEShawResearch/random…

Which Python 3.10 and static type checkers much of the benefits of algebraic data types is already available [1]. [1]: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16258553/how-can-i-defin.…

There are two primary criticisms of this move in this thread: C1) This is just hurting ordinary Russian citizens and serves no other purpose. I empathize strongly with the Russians…

Filling out tax forms and FBAR requirements were a pain.

One theoretical objection to this idea is that distances measured have an accuracy limit of Planck length (1.616e-35 meters). So if your number needs more precision then "just mark…

Surprising-ness is a not a good metric to measure social/psychological science research by. Often a statement and its opposite can be intuitive. If the opposite result was stated h…

What would be the benefits of this over neovim-qt?

Honest question. Why not just use C/subset of C++ with a template language like Python+Jinja2 for meta programming? Code generation is already popular with popular C++ libraries li…

Performance is the currency which you trade for ease of development, new features, etc. Ignoring performance comes at a cost to you (server side resources) and your users (device r…
