    What?! Insane take. NixOS is where the most "magic" happens, over and under the hood. It brings it's own language! Simple package based distros like Arch basically just extract arc…

    Though a good language would point out that what the junior (or in some cases even senior) dev is holding in their hand is in fact a gun and not a gun disguised and marketed as thi…

    Huh, I used the extra time I had during Covid to educate myself on health, nutrition, exercise. I lost 15 kg, reached my target BMI and have been replacing fat with muscle since. I…

    Sure, we can. You're wrong.

    In frequentist statistics it's either 1 or 0 after the experiment (dice roll, card flip or universe creation). Either it happened or it didn't.

    What are you talking about? Do you mean first few frequency bins, and setting the others to zero? That would be a simple linear-phase lowpass filter. And if you do the shifting pro…

    Thanks. I don't see what would clump, because it's not negative-mass matter floating between galaxies that I'm suggesting. Just like entangled particles that are lightyears apart, …

    May I get your thoughts on this idea of mine: We all know the marbles on a rubber sheet experiment. Masses produce "dents" in spacetime that "pull" on other objects. Couldn't it be…

    Anything exists because of survivor bias? That's backwards logic / you've missed/evaded the question. It's not like asking P(A|A), it's not even asking why P(A) > P(N). It's asking…
