Addition/subtraction are also much simpler/cheaper than they would be in an entirely logarithmic model. If floats were just 2^x with some 64 bit fixed point x, it's not clear to me how to do addition efficiently.
The "200 basis point spread" comes from the difference between the very low or non-existent interest paid on the cash in brokerage accounts and the rates the brokerage can earn by lending that money out basically…
The problem being solved essentially is: you have two binary strings, and you want to offset one of them so that they match up the best. For each offset, you're taking a dot product of one sequence with the offset…
In general, xz beats zstd in compression ratio, as xz is very committed to providing the strongest compression, at the expense of speed, while zstd provides a range of compression ratio vs speed tradeoffs [0]. At the…
Well sure, but from an asymptotic approach both unsorted and sorted are "linear", so asymptotics don't necessarily provide enough information to answer GP's question.
The article mentions the applicable exception: > Everyone who is born in Canada is eligible for Canadian citizenship, with one exception: those who are born to employees of foreign governments.
I'm not sure where you are but I find it quite uncommon for university students.
I'm not sure about the US but in Canada it's certainly not true that everyone has data plans (in fact as far as I can tell unless you have a company sponsored phone, data plans are in the minority), and SMS remains a…
If you actually think that and aren't just trolling, would you care to back up your statements? While the Ontario debt is larger than the California debt, it's not really a fair comparison.[1][2] And on the communist…
Perhaps I misunderstand you but since it's HTTPS, in theory there are no MITM attacks.
This looks cool really cool! I like the site, however it can be hard to read the text with the flashy background. Perhaps have the flashy background scroll up with the first "panel"? On the crypto side of things, are…
While that is true, part of the contents that is hashed is the time of commit. Therefore if you (somehow...) managed to get that hash, you could just reset and commit again. Or amend. In any case, I believe he was…
Ok, thanks for the reply. Do you guys have any plans to try client-side encryption at some point in the future and/or do file encryption as well? I have to agree with kenrikm to some degree, if the encryption and…
Looks interesting, although more information on the encryption schemes used, how the key is stored/represented/generated would be nice given that the idea is to trust the service with my private data.
I know how you feel, a few months ago I was working on a game with a friend just for fun (I was coding, he was doing everything art, music, etc). At one point I realized I was putting off working on it because I wasn't…
I think > Your passwords are as most as strong as the protection of the place where you store them. would be more appropriate
He's not saying dice or other activities like that are rigged, he's saying the odds in casinos are manufactured such that the house wins most of the time.
I'f you can get a vpn into Canada it's even better, CBC has every event on demand as well as highlights, etcetera for free. As a Canadian, it's wonderful and reduced my productivity by 90% the past few days.
