I now use "ASCII em-dashes" by using two hyphens -- like this. Or--if you prefer no spaces--like this.
Ok but no one here actually implied that they think like this.
YouTube already supports that natively these days, although it's kind of hidden (and knowing Google, it might very well randomly disappear one day). Open the description of the video, scroll down and click "show…
In that case, how come they "left in the first days of the job" because "they saw what they were going to work on and peaced out"?
I seriously doubt saying "big blond haired baby who likes burger and fascism" instead of "Trump" would have made a difference for these people.
What? This doesn't "need to" exist, it's just a funny parody that someone made.
No, and this is where this formal notion of basis I mentioned unfortunately diverges from what is perhaps more useful in practice. You can represent any function f: [-pi, pi] -> R as an infinite sum f(x) = sum_(k = 0 to…
The set of all real->real functions is still a vector space. This vector space also has a basis (even if it is not as useful): there is a (uncountably infinite) subset of real->real functions such that every function…
Is there any reference to pigs being possessed with spirits that predate the New Testament?

I feel like this is kind of pedantic - if your definition of the word "political" renders their point moot, then clearly they must be using a different definition. But I understand what you mean. The problem is that 99%…
Here's another (seemingly finite) problem being analyzed with the same "Nim but with ordinal numbers" approach: https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/85984
I suppose the point is that it's not the voiceless glottal fricative? To my ears [ħ] sounds closer to [x] and [χ] than to [h] (even though the place of articulation is closer to [h]), but I'm sure it's different for…

What does a more recent language offer that C# doesn't and that would enable more powerful IDEs?
I feel like at this point, browsers should at least not prefer text/html if "open image in new tab" or similar is used.
You're right that discoverability is not really the issue. However, I still agree with the GP that if you are not on the Play Store, you lose most of your installations. If someone has already discovered your app and…
As a customer of Kagi, it's better than the current Google but it's still not the Google of 2010. Google sponsoring irrelevant results is one thing, but the bigger issue remains: in 2024, creating a trove of worthless…
I remember it being the case before too. It wasn't unconditional like it is now. For example, I distinctly remember being able to scroll through someone's profile in a normal browser window without being logged in, but…
It is, and if you choose the number uniformly at random, it's not just "effectively" zero, it is precisely zero. GP's point, as I understand it, is that it is not actually possible to choose a number from [0, 1]…

I don't think it is "pure GPT" because of the "As someone...". It seems more likely that this is someone who is using GPT to make their comments longer or "fancier". Or it might be a rare example of someone who actually…
