Is it really Apple's font? I believe WhatsApp on Android uses the same. I guess everyone identifies them as Apple's because WhatsApp is not popular in US. I find it way uglier than Google's, too much detail makes them…
Well, not sure where you read I drive close to anyone. What I'm trying to say is that erratic drivers are dangerous because you learn to predict what a normal driver would do in a typical situation (e.g. jogger too…
I agree, legal or not, I very much rely on other drivers "signals" when driving. Over the years you learn to predict what the driver in front of you would do in a normal situation and adjust your driving in advance. I'm…
As others have said, I would go with simulated annealing, or any non convex optimization algorithm you're more comfortable with. But first I'd investigate what's really the gain of closely packing the candies. Would…

No idea, I don't use ubuntu. According to OP it's pulled by default in 12.04 and 14.04 as long as you choose to enable multimedia codecs at install time.
GStreamer is highly modular, so it makes totally sense to ship a set of plugins with subpar code, unclear patent/licensing, barely maintained in a dedicated package. They called it "bad", what do you expect? The issue…

right, it's so powerful it's also interfering with your sarchasm detector, apparently.
About reversed hot/neutral. We have these[1] symmetrical adapters in Europe. How are you supposed to know the proper orientation? You are not. Because you either have an earthed metal case or you have a double insulated…
The point is, how did Apple manage to get away with it for all these years? why weren't they enforced to ship only the properly grounded adapter?
connect the two prong adapter, take your shoes and socks off, feet on the ground... feel the vibe! the best shocks you get at the edges or at the pointy edges in that groove to lift the display up.
I definitely experience it a lot with math. I think the way we learn and "write" math is somewhat different from how our brain does it. So you need to give it a bit of time to translate everything to its language and…
About questions not being great, do they match what you could expect in a real world interview for a strategy quant position?
Guess like all engineering jobs, sometimes your job is so far from practice and so involved in regulations, meetings, standards, bureaucracy, reports, a little refcard with the most basic things can help to quickly…
"That - he said - nobody knows". It's kind of different from "we live in a sea of energy". I honestly think inertia is a lot easier to grasp than energy. It's a phenomenon you can experiment, describe and name, energy…
Definitely too much, mostly by a vocal minority of the userbase. I guess design is not enough, you need good charismatic leaders to be able to sell it to the community, and you need to be strong enough to not care about…
GNOME development has been mostly design driven since maybe 2008, the whole 3 era had professional designers on board since the beginning.
brew install mactex And consider ditching natbib for biblatex/biber

Actually I believe this particular example is basic and pretty understandable C. I was talking about the more broad idea of knowingly writing clever code to raise the entry barrier for new devs. Or just writing clever…

Sure, but you'll agree that's not the common acceptation. Anyway, I guess it was a typo for costumes. I found interesting the implication that you need to "consume" to have fun.
Fun use of words given the context, consumers.
IIRC git was already a huge success, i.e. most big freesoftware projects (Linux, GNOME, xorg, gstreamer and many more) ditched other VCS for it, when github was still in its early stages.
