A bit of a bad analogy as, in water, the sodium and chloride are not bound together; rather, the ions are separately distributed throughout and wouldn't have the same density that they would have in a dry, crystal, ionically bound form.

There are many non-radioactive carcinogens.

This appears to be a blog post from 2015 so maybe not as newsworthy as the headline would indicate.

Newly created account.

I use Control as well, and it was an adaptation to prevent typing spaces or letters into the password field that I would have to delete before typing in my password. Perhaps you had a similar experience.

Certain viruses maintained their lethality as time went on. Smallpox was very lethal throughout time. Influenza lethality ebbs throughout history. I don't think we can or should depend on less-lethal, common-cold-like symptoms from Covid-19 at any point.

This should have (2009) appended to the title. I imagine that the code for this site has changed a great deal in the last eleven years.

I can remember tar commands.

It's an interesting argument; however I am a little dissuaded by the fact that half of the support for the claims of similar syntax between Norwegian and English (split infinitives and placing a preposition at the end of a sentence) are generally considered poor grammar in English.

John Singleton wrote HurtLocker for Android (available at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.featurepro...) for this exact reason.

It allows you to surreptitiously wipe your phone when you are coerced or intimidated into involuntarily unlocking it.

Watch out, you are in the same market as wwwizer.com who offers the same product for free. You are going to have to distinguish yourself somehow to compete with that price.

Prof. Ng is teaching Machine Learning again next year, too.

The source cited for the Gohmert quote on batteries is a joke site called rumormill.com.

I'm glad that dailykos checks their sources thoroughly.

Just for independent verification purposes, I tried to find a free copy of this book using his search terms, and didn't come up with anything in a few minutes of clicking after results.

It appears that there is a 5th edition of his Javascript book and a 6th edition of another author's HTML book easily reachable from those terms, but no free electronic copy of a 6th edition Javascript book.

Google will remove links to pirated copies of books, one needs only submit a DMCA request. I doubt that DMCA requests will drive publicity for your book launch like an entitled blog post, though.

We are looking for high-scalability data processing, machine learning, ETL, and/or browser-internals/javascript experts. Contract or contract to hire. Remote or local to Santa Monica, CA. Typical startup environment.

That Document structure stores a URL and its pagerank for later processing.

In the Sawzall paper, it's used in a program that reports the top URL from a domain, ranked by pagerank:

     proto "document.proto"
     max_pagerank_url:
          table maximum(1) [domain: string] of url: string
                weight pagerank: int;

     doc: Document = input;
     emit max_pagerank_url[domain(doc.url)] <- doc.url
          weight doc.pagerank;
