    Maybe not the case if they looked crooked, but having irregular placement of construction elements is a valid way to decrease tendency for self resonance through different vibratio…

    I would very much like to have something like Google authenticator, but for billing. With the ability so set it as alarms on my phone (and coworkers), preferably with some smarts t…

    I don't know anything about how the licencing works, and what parts are covered, but the patents reported to ITU for H.265/HEVC as a whole is substantial, see: https://www.itu.int/…

    Actually, it's chloramine alone that is the culprit for both the smell and the red eyes according to the actual report. Which isn't reporting any new finding, as far as I know this…

    There appears to be some volume limits for the free tier, that might explain the difference in experience. Right now I get the following for most of the graphics on the linked page…

    There might be a difference that's worth noting. There are game designs that are clearly engineered to create either outright addiction, or at the very least, cravings. Porn, at le…

    The parent seems to agree with you, that Haskell is maybe too eager to keep to 'mathematical' names, but it almost sounds like you interpreted the parent the other way around? Your…

    Game theoretical, I don't have a solution, but for the scoundrels they tend to have a different set of truths for everyone they talk to. I think it should be possible to use this t…

    Very few people are really able to spot people with even quite blatant sociopathic/anti-social behaviours, they just fit too well into the stereotype of the able, charismatic, and …

    I've certainly seen this behaviour, years wasted on things that could never work in the long run, then rinse and repeat. I've only been on for one cycle, but the pattern is quite c…

    The reproducibility problems of psychology general - of which this is only a small fragment - is showing a few things: 1) Psychology is harder than almost anyone thought. 2) We are…
