I've always assumed array iteration is more expensive you don't know the size of the objects and/or they aren't contiguous.

Never in my life have I found these totally generic advice collations useful. They're always vague, unfalsifiable, borderline platitudes. They "work" for the same reasons horoscope…

Absolutely. You're being downvoted because we're once again forgetting history as this modern wave of left-leaning pearl clutchers feels justified in having biased moderation which…

The engineers at Google, YouTube, get al are no more qualified to gatekeep COVID information than any other layman. People are only rooting for this censorship because at the momen…

Here is the first study[0] which correctly looked at the combination of HCQ with zinc sulfate ionophore, as per the original theory, which originated from a Dutch researcher who pr…

>that all matter has some associated mind or consciousness, and vice versa. Where there is mind there is matter and where there is matter there is mind. That doesn't make sense. We…

This is a fantastic resource. I've long lamented the difficulty of finding textbooks. Since colleges buy them back every semester to control demand, it's actually hard to find some…

>There are no shades of gray here. We're weighing human extinction against an economic system here. These things are not comparable. The whole point of an economy is to facilitate …

>And idiots will continue parroting this exact line as billions of people are dying. Exactly the same way idiots are protesting social distancing, lockdowns, and mask wearing in US…

>The big difference here is that the risk of climate scientists being right is that billions of people die. That's literally an absolute worst case prediction. You cannot guide pol…

>Being a geoscintist does not make you a climatologist. It's amazing to me that people who are experts in one domain think that gives them the authority to talk about other domains…

>Do critics of government hold other prediction "markets" to the same standards? You realize that modern economics is basically divination for the same reason that climate science …

I'll buck the apologist trend here and mention that artists by and large are not technical people and are only concerned with the superficial pleasant appearance of pixel art, and …

>Vietnam currently has no deaths from covid-19 precisely because scientists were in charge Vietnam was prepared because they, like Taiwan, knew from the start that China was lying …

How anyone can continue to place so much faith into dogmatic science, after the global and nearly universal failure of these same institutions to properly prepare for and handle co…

Google is regularly accused of leaning left and has taken open steps to curate search results and other content in an ostensibly unbiased manner, but one which may disproportionate…

Interesting, I wonder if it has anything to do with this [0]. Google wanted to play politics by choosing winners and curating results...now they get to face the consequences for ab…

Everything remotely related to adware is just gross. It's hard to believe that after 10 years of this nothing has changed and the tricks are as dirty as ever. Totally unethical ind…

It's tragic to see how Music TeleVision was destroyed by vapid commercialization. A cultural icon was forced to blandify all of its content to appeal to the most common denominator…

There was a comprehensive literature review posted on /r/coronavirus some two months ago that strong (and statistically robust in my opinion as a professional data scientist) indic…

What special knowledge do you think you need to interpret 5 months of COVID studies? That's almost two semesters of grad school. You don't need a PhD to gain enough knowledge of co…

I absolutely agree with this sentiment. It's why I had difficulty reading "how to win friends and influence people" despite how frequently and casually lauded it is. It's literally…
