Using a prepared statement will give you the determinism you want as well as avoid having to optimize and plan the query on every time it is executed: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/sql-prepare.html SQL…
I think if the universe is deterministic the probability is 1 and if it is not the probability is definitely 0 (like a random real being rational).
I think the general idea is very good. Hardware is "hard", but it's hard for the competition too - if you're good in that area that should be what you want. The social network / web app market has few barriers to entry…
In complexity theory, n is based on the length of the binary encoding of the input, NOT the decimal value as was used here. Therefore, the x-axis should be based on n = log2(k), for each number k. Overlooking this would…
I would love to see a study done comparing the benefits of Ritalin, Adderall etc. to users diagnosed as having ADD/ADHD against users not diagnosed as having it. If the former group receives significantly greater…
According to the Time Hierarchy theorem ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_hierarchy_theorem ), for each number k > 1, there exists a problem in P that can be decided (solved) in O(n^k), and not decided (solved) in…
I don't usually enjoy any of the activities I suggest as ideas for "dates" in and of themselves (on the occasion I need to come up with one). I just try and think of something that is cheap, but will not seem like I…
