Listen here, Little Dicky
  • And it denotes an operation that gives you that fraction in operational algebra...

    Instead of making it clear that d is an operator, not a value, and thus the entire thing becomes an operator, physicists keep claiming that there's no fraction involved. I guess they like confusing people.

  • How indeed
  • The hell of one idea that just won't die. It was created out of thin air by sheer force of racist speculation, and known to be wrong for close to a century. Yet people still keep repeating it.

  • I had to work with Excel today
  • Oh, excel is a bad tool. There's no argument about it.

    Just look at the meme about dates somebody posted just around the same time as this. Excel has that kind of shit about everything. It does solve a good problem, but the tool is a piece of crap.

  • Types of development illustrated
  • Lots of "maybe"s, I see...

    On which of those application types there are developers that write most of one of the halves, but do not touch the other half?

    (Oh, yeah, on the phone apps, but only the ones that are a web site cached on the phone.)

  • Consider this:
  • Fluorescence is a thing.

    The problem here (despite using a giant laser on the least effective way possible) is that any kind of error correction can deal with your pulsing interference, and you are letting the drone get a bit too close.

  • Types of development illustrated
  • maybe that’s all the customer needs

    The food truck is often better than the restaurant experience in every dimension... The same is valid for the app analogies.

    How many people worked on it is not a dimension that counts.

  • That clears things up
  • That excerpt does nothing even similar to claiming the definition makes things clear.

    I have no idea what l is, but given the context of axiomatization of arithmetic, I'm almost sure the author picked a fair and precise example.

  • As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

    I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

    Why do all those US universities have dealings with Israel?

    All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

    Is there some educational or research resource they get?

    What do I do with the !community@instance links?

    The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

    I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

    Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

    What is the recommended way to use those?
