He was elected by a so-called council of experts. Those experts are elected by the people, although screened by the council of constitutional guards. The council consists of six lawyers assigned by the leader and six…
As far as I understood a locked device can install other firmware if the current firmware supports it. A cooperative flush, so to say. But not an uncooperative one. Fine for using, not good for tinkering.
Copyright should be commoditized. A possible first step could be giving copyright owners a single obligation: you have to sell what you own. That thing you have must be available on the market. This rules out…
This is common sense. Germans are our long term neighbors and generally friends. As "Pravda" wrote at the end of WW2, "Hitlers come and go, but the German people remains". It's about time they take their country back.
I used the Selenized color scheme once and it indeed came in four variants: light, dark, white and black. One may also think about a grayscale theme, perhaps.
Chekhov went from rags to riches. But this was closer to the end of the century.
Differences are supposed to convey information. E.g. a paragraph's first line is indented to indicate that this is a start of a paragraph. Differences in line width convey no useful information, so the are suppressed.…
When I grew up in Soviet Union we heard "political" jokes and also heard that they were written by CIA. It was not generally believed to be true. Even mocked later, like "You think Soviets could not come up with jokes…
This would still take at least time. But it's a bit more layered. Art must be original. But the originality cannot be the aim of art. It will emerge itself if the artist strives for truth, because all the originality is…
Art became an investment and artistic properties ceased to matter.
There were experiments that zipped music pieces, I think, and then classified the compressed files by similarity. They got rather interesting resuls. But I do not remember much details. It was, I believe, about 20 years…
William James suggested a criterion to tell these two apart.
Well, I can only quote Pushkin's letter to Vyazemsky (used Google AI to translate; in the letter Pushkin wrote about Lord Byron's lost personal memoirs): "The crowd greedily reads confessions, memoirs, etc., because in…
The usage of the term varies. E.g. the GNU C library uses the word "arena" to describe the internal structures used by its 'malloc' allocator. What you describe they call "obstack", which also has internal "arenas". So…
"Honesty is a skill most people don't appreciate." This phrase starts an excerpt from a Piter Ralston interview that was one of turning points for me. I was caught by the word "skill"; not "virtue", as honesty normally…
One is getting guidance and another is using that guidance. They are not substitutes. Zen teacher talks with students, but then the students work on their own. They cannot get that knowledge in a dialogue. In Zen the…
That would be the quality of any allocator that is created as a separate object. Internally it can use any algorithm, e.g. a typical malloc-free cycle. Once you're done, you drop the whole allocator, it returns big…
There's a book that briefly mentions the same effect on cluster headaches. They are not the main topic, but in the foreword author tells a story about having them as the reason he started the the journey. "The Presence…
It's both. You have a purpose defined by God, but you have to understand what it is and the journey is your own. There are a lot of hints, explanations, personal stories, but you have to do some work to understand what…
A normal computer company mixes finely with residential and commercial spots: clean and quiet operation, employees can live closely, etc. A woodworking shop would be noisier. But it has to be normal, not a cryptominer…
True understanding requires not knowing, and LLMs cannot "not know". LLMs have to come up with an answer, this is their nature. They are search engines. We do have a similar mechanism; one can notice it by reflecting.…
Bradbury was very popular in USSR. His Wikipedia page has an anecdote of a Soviet filmmaker recognizing him in a crowd and surprising the rest of the celebrities around who had no idea who Bradbury was. (Another such…
As "Forever and the Earth" shows it wasn't just stylistic, but essential.
No.
The problem is not that it limits the wearer's free will. On the contrary, it allows the wearer to exercise it way too effectively on the premise that the wearer already knows exactly who he is and what he needs.
