It's little o notation. It does not depend on n. For example x^2 is in O(x^2) but is not in o(x^2).

Yep, blurred on one of my devices.

I do not know why but this game makes the winning font look much better than it is when I use my code. Whenever I try the winning font (b612, fira mono), I always go back to Libera…

MBAs are seen as people without skin in the game. They are rewarded if things are going well, and are not punished if things go bad. The asymmetry makes these individuals look as i…

I remember that a bunch of my classmates in elementary school knew German through watching Pokemon on a German cartoon channel that was broadcasted in Croatia (required no paid sub…

Any idea if amount of cannabinoids produced by our own body is high enough?

I discussed it elsewhere in the thread.

Yes, but the usual cases of -> "app starts -> load some state from local storage -> store it in memory for sync access -> do app" sometimes get lost due to the ease of async/await …

Sometimes you don't want to pause (with await) and give something else the chance to execute (happens a lot in UI). When code is sloppily written you realize that at some point you…

No async/await is a good thing, IMO. Using fp-ts there is never a need for async/await and the code is still linear, (Promise is transformed to TaskEither , similar to the example …

Automatically evaluated leet coding session (2 hours) + Live English language check interview (15 mins) + 2 week fake template project + Live coding session (30 mins). I was fortun…

This was my experience too. After the initial period where recruiters are a bit afraid to give you your first engagement everything starts flowing really smooth. I started at Upwor…

This is computer modern optimized for printing. It’s not bad, the pixels are constructing the glyphs in a way that makes them good for printing. Bitmap version of the font, I guess…

They should do this for competitive programming tasks.

In Europe some families are still insanely rich from being rich 500 years ago. There's not much being written about them today as many do not seek publicity.

Yes, I saw the figure and that's why I commented that the day 2 conversions for the control are basically giving all of the information in the assumed model. To me it just looks li…

A/B tests work fine if the signal you are measuring is strong. This is not the case here. Is it even fine to use the distribution assumptions in the later analysis? Looks like thes…

I guess it depends on what OP is talking about. Async code can be written with callbacks (callback hell incoming), or with Futures/Promises, or with syntax sugar like async (do not…

async, when looked at from the "writing code" perspective is horrible. it pollutes every function with async annotation. it allows you to quickly write the code imperatively by jus…

It's just amazing how DL made most work completely irrelevant. Stuff before 2010 in natural language processing is ridiculous. Dynamic programming algorithms, beam search, dependen…

Obviously Chinese miners went to Kazakhstan to mine.

Damn, first video I open is of castrating piglets. Can't believe it's done while the animal is awake and with no sedatives. Brutal. I'd rather have a farm raising plants than do th…
