That’s awesome. What part of the world are you in?
SELECT * FROM fediverse
WHERE
instance = "lemm.ee" AND
interest = "data"
ORDER BY "nerdiness"
LIMIT 1;
Well I am here. What do you want to talk about?
You are awesome man. I wanted to wait until the instance matured before committing to a monthly donation but I am signing up now. You’re the best instance admin anyone can hope for. Glad to see your patch make it to 0.18
Do you know what would make Latin America safe against foreign interventions and coups: robust government and civil institutions with broad popular support. Blaming America for it’s history of interventions will do nothing to protect you from China doing the same thing. The only people who can build and protect the autonomy and liberty of Latin America are the Latin Americans themselves.
Background: my family was forced out of Nicaragua during the US intervention in the 1930s.
I’m going crazy, but if this compiles at all I bet it generates the same machine code when compiled with each line reversed.
Professional scientist here. I would take a table of logarithms. In a world without computers, the logarithm table and slide rule are the essential tools of how things got built. We built the Golden Gate Bridge and put a man on the moon using nothing more than log tables.
Any one person can remember the gist of the scientific method and write it down on a page. To write down a quality logarithm table you would need 500 pages.
Real life quantum physicist here. When you say you want the uncertainty principle to be bigger, what you are really saying is you want Planck’s constant to be a bigger number. This has much bigger consequences than you might expect, because if nothing else about the universe changes (for example Coulomb’s constant) then the energy levels of atomic transitions all get out of whack, you break chemistry and chemical bonding, and there is no such thing as a basketball because there are no such thing as rubber molecules.
Really enjoyed the read. Thanks for sharing. I’m surprised by the random page implementation.
Usually in a database each record has an integer primary key. The keys would be assigned sequentially as pages are created. Then the “random page” function could select a random integer between zero and the largest page index. If that index isn’t used (because the page was deleted), you could either try again with a new random number or then march up to the next non empty index.
I love the amendment that failed. Imagine being so full of yourself as the state Supreme Court chief justice that you try to change the constitution so you don’t have to retire. That shit happens in Russia.
