    The irony is, germany was controlled by the allies then, including the US, the ones whose population you just called ignorant, that watches movies about prostitutes' escapedes or w…

    In the decimal system it is just as easy to associate 5+5=10. 5xN is easier to remember than 16xN on account of 5 being the smaller number. 2^n is logarithmic whereas 5*n is linear…

    I'm not sure if those are the meassures that guide the decision: Searching in linked lists is suboptimal (was it O(n)?), as is their cache performance. Sure, with small lists, that…

    Having been mildly disappointed by the simplicity of monoids, after intimidation from the complexity in maths, i expect that something like an adjunction is something already known…
