It’s quite common for a DOI to be assigned to a paper after it’s accepted during camera ready. However, the DOI won’t work until the conference or journal version is published on t…

Can this be solved by storing a timestamp of the record along with precise GPS coordinates? Could we then utilize some database to compute the drift from then and now?

At least, Cisco survived. Nortel and Lucent were not so lucky.

Many years ago, I reported an issue where iTerm2 leaks sensitive search history to preference files [1]. The issue was quickly fixed. But until this day, I can still find people un…

Interestingly, in the end of the article, the FDA links to an old article hosted on web.archive.org[1] even though the linked article was originally published by FDA themselves. Co…

A related question: what is the state in term of supporting the SQL standard among the popular RDBMS? It seems that almost all database engines use their own custom syntax.

You are confusing two different units. The earthquake moment magnitude scale measures the amount of energy of a given earthquake. It does not concern the location you are and the s…

I mean that it is hard to scrape these git.io links used in the research papers to build the archive. Unless of course, if Github provides a DB dump, it would help everyone a lot.

Compared with Rust’s Result monad, which allows developers to clearly see the effects of error handling, there are two other hidden fallible effects in Rust that are much harder to…

May I ask what missing fields you are referring to? Why @online/@software/@dataset type in biblatex [1] cannot do the job? That being said, I think GitHub should acknowledge that i…

Since many papers have existing bibtex, it would be better if GitHub either provides tools to convert bibtex to CFF or supports bibtex directly. FWIW, bibtex is the de facto standa…

Just like any autoencoder, it is not about getting back the exact original, which is of course impossible. It is about summarizing the image in 96bits information, which is quite e…
