Since IPA uses a lot of unicode characters, would it be that much of a problem? IPA, imo, usually has a very specific look to it that wouldn't be confused with "normal" text.
This is unrelated to multicore, but Ocaml is a language I want to like. I wanted to learn OCaml with the make a lisp project. That is, until I realized it doesn't have Perl regex built in (yes, I have been spoiled by…
Does this blog post even contain evidence of the court's leaning? From what I gathered yesterday, the court was hesitant to shake up the software industry. This post seems to just contain the author's hunch/desire?…
It's pretty wild that the largest discussion site on the internet with untold numbers of young kids on it regularly has NSFW posts hit the top or second page. It makes me wonder if Reddit will try to push down or…
I unironically miss forums. It was a completely different experience from post/comment based sites because everything was one thread, but the biggest thing I miss is that forums were usually pretty well moderated,…
I agree that voting with your wallet doesn't affect large companies. However, for me, not using Amazon is about ethics and choosing less evil companies. Honestly, and I think others would agree, Amazon has had a…
I would rather just not use clocks than do this. Yes, it would be "better" if we shifted clocks every day, but that's not practical for mechanical clocks. You may could get away with monthly realignment, but even with…
I have to constantly look up US imperial amounts. I like that the imperial system is sometimes based on twelves, the problem is where it isn't (volume is based on doubling, inches are successive halving). It's really…
I know you can use emoji as variables in Ruby. Unsure if you can in Python. Imo it's fine to allow Unicode. Latin will still be the de facto standard character set, but it allows international users to code natively and…
Every time I want to sit down and write an elm app I have a great time until I need to do anything complex.
Reading this comment caused me frustration. The only workaround I've found to be effective is selecting a few letters on one end of your intended selection and using ctrl+arrows to precisely select.
Even that's too generous. It's got to be just going to a socket somewhere that redirects to `/dev/null`
I heard a Reply All episode about the use of CompStat in NYC, which is just a manual algorithm for predictive policing. It started as a useful tool to prevent crime, but devolved into racial profiling as officers began…
Thanks. Currently stuck on the wrong side of their paywall.
I would hope. In my experience, sometimes government offices can be specific about payments. For example, my sister had to pay a speeding ticket and the courthouse only accepted cash and money orders, iirc. It all…
That's messed up. I never carry any cash and I wouldn't carry more than $50 if I did. And all that for an expired license. For a lot of people, that could mean losing a job and all kinds of other consequences.
This is not about defending new ideas, but about them trying to get Christianity into schools in an official capacity.
I would love to use elm. For me, it needs more in the standard library, but this is the language that has an unzip function and removed the zip function.
Did you read the part about survivorship bias? And on top of that, it's a blog post. Evan gave examples of really helpful error messages. I don't use elm, as I don't do webdev and I don't agree with Evan's tendancy to…
That would be my first idea for a new name. With that project being last updated in 2004, I'm sure they would be fine.
I can't understand why vaccinations aren't mandatory for non-allergic, non-immunocompromised children at this point. You shouldn't have the option to kill your kid, and especially others' kids.
I think even beyond that, I didn't see a link to any docs in the readme. It may be cool, but I can't use it if there's nothing to tell me how.
Is there anyone Oracle won't sue? I think most companies would take that as a signal they need to improve their offerings. Oracle on the other hand says, "Are our cloud offerings sub par? No, it's the customer who is…
I haven't had a lot of time to dig through the docs yet (also, I think your certificate is expired, btw), but this seems like a great alternative to Mathematica and the like. This is definitely a project I can get…
While Wolfram alpha got me through Cal 2, why are you plugging it here?
