I think the author means to say that it's kind of an all or nothing thing. You either go purely functional and get all the benefits, or you don't and barely get any benefits at all. You could say that "almost…
If anything, Haskell is based on lambda calculus. More particularly System F. As in any lambda calculus, you can interpret the type system as a category where the objects are types and the arrows are functions. Classes…
Yes it's common to have software which can find plagiarism like that. However, if the student actually does these things (change all variable names and move code around) it will be hard for an examination board to…
That's only for trains. For bus/metro/tram you only need 4 EUR on your card. See https://www.ov-chipkaart.nl/reizen/tarieven/instapenbasistar....
I think these results are fairly good. 'Just' some neuron loss at such doses. A lot of drugs can kill you if you take 20 times the recommended dose!
I'm surprised by the huge difference between those articles. Somehow i do find your article more believable. News outlets prefer to spin the story the other way because that kind of story is much more popular. It sheds…
This idea of immutable infrastructure reminds me of NixOS [1]. A linux distribution where nearly the whole filesystem is immutable. Definitely worth a look. I'm not sure if it's fit for production usage, but i think…
A spelling error in the title is actually very easy to miss. You might read the main article an extra time before publishing, but the title is probably in a separate textfield which is not checked. It's always a bit…
Ah you're talking about the user comments under the article. Took me a few minutes to figure that out :)
Exactly. In a certain way, you could call jQuery UI effects a very limited physics engine. I don't think the author is saying everyone should use a physics engine now. I think he means that we should use real-world…
Simpler indeed. That's actually what stash does internally. I usually don't make a separate branch, but just commit it in the current branch. Then you can rebase or amend later. You never need 'snapshot' if you know…
This is the way that github recommends (https://help.github.com/articles/creating-project-pages-manu...). A separate folder for the gh-pages branch makes sense because this branch has nothing in common with any of the…
You make it sound like git is unsuitable for this, i disagree. I often use git for one-man projects, both with and without an external repository. Once you learn how to use it it works great. I would never want to…
Yes. For the 0.7 chain, it's as if the 0.8 chain never happened. All transactions and all mining in that part of the chain is irrelevant now.
Yep S1 still exists. Nix does not do destructive updating. When you install or update a package, you'll always be able to revert to the previous state. The best explanation of that process can be found in the original…
Note that this is such a case where you've already got the pointer. mdwrigh2 is totally right. I flipped the O(1) for linked list insertion with the O(n) for verctor insertion :).
I use emacs mode for bash, which is default on mac. Then i bind 'option cursor left' to \033b and 'option cursor right' to \033f. Voila, next and previous word using alt+arrow keys. Good enough for me :).
The author does an insertion sort in a linked list, of course that's going to be slow. For a sorted insert you need to do 2 things: find the right spot for insertion and the insert itself. An insertion sort does this n…
I don't think this is unique to the US, and not unique to the last 10 years either. Consider this: Of all the products made a 100 years ago, only 1% was made to last for a long time. Right now the other 99% is broken…
