+1, pg is using a pretty typical argument you see in analysis/topology. If you want to get to real analysis/topology the typical sequence is 1. Logic and Set theory (recommendation: How to Prove It, Velleman) 2. Linear…
Sure, maybe my definition was imprecise. Good catch. But my point remains. I don't feel like I should be compensated for my HN posts. My great aunt doesn't expect compensation for posting her cat pictures. To be honest,…
Ok, but the author referred specifically to "Creators", which usually means the minority of users who post things other than text. If you read more of the author's post: > We are a webcomic duo that has been creating…

How is it flawed logcally? Seems perfectly correct to me. Although I'd agree it's a bit over-literal. As if the emotional workings of the human mind can be precisely reasoned about (i.e. precisely enough to say…

Mitigating the risk of downloading a script from the internet and executing it -- even from a "trusted" website or package manager -- is absolutely a good reason not to use it.
Ah. Is 8 bits really optimal? I don't know how many UTF space characters there are, I thought there were only a few. Why not a 16-bit lookup?
From reading the article, how is this more efficient? Doesn't any word counting algorithm have to iterate through all the characters and count spaces? What makes this better than the standard algorithm of wc = 0 prev =…
