I have to clock in and clock out. I can't clock in when I am commuting. I don't give over time savings to work tasks, Why would I. The time was my own time.
Anecdotal evidence but when I used duckdb and Python and Pycharm the Pycharm table viewer was not working as well as Excel. The rendering was messed up. Could be related to the remote desktop rendering but still not as flawless as Excel. The patchwork of multiple software from different vendors needed to replace Excel with database plus viewer plus Code has downsides compared to the single app single file solution that is Excel.
No. TUIs do not work everywhere. They can break because of terminfo which I really don't want to deal with. I hate wasting time on such configuration issues.
Tunnels can recoup their cost easily if they are used massively by many people every day. Any reason why you are against building a subway / underground railway?
Yes. Similarly, safety needs to be there even after the aging of materials over product lifetime. So basically when aging is the only variable to be considered end of life date is the worst case scenario.
Fritzbox brand and possibly others updates itself automatically by default. ISPs often also control the devices they ship to clients and install updates as part of a "fleet management".
Agree that we are allowed to waste time. Sending money to scammers doesn't help anyone it just makes whoever is in charge of the criminal ring more powerful.
The display can only show a video well that has this property of only updating parts of the screen but not everything at the same time? What if the video content is like so?
No, measuring light doesn't remove the air quality confounder. Measuring air quality would allow to remove the air quality confounder. What are you smoking?
It's also good practice to chose an appropriate language for the problem. It's not premature optimisation to use a compiled language instead of Python when you already know the code will run thousands of times in a loop because of the application and use a lot of electrical energy in the process.
A part of my question that you didn't go into was, can new knowledge be added in a new version without making the answers with knowledge learned in previous versions non-deterministic?
The answers can be recorded and reviewed. The other points are true, or is there a way to make outcomes deterministic, when compared to previous versions while allowing to add more knowledge in newer versions?
If you are unsure what you are doing, do not do it. For example, I just posted to hackernews. The button in my app says "submit", but doesn't warn me about posting to the internet. Is there any problem with that? No, because I know what I'm doing and anyone using the Internet should too.
Even if you can not compute the result in a finite number of steps through the naive approach there could still be a better approach, let me call it shortcut, for determining the value that can be computed. E.g. the geometric series result is known (a/(1-r)) but not computable through evaluating the series itself. A problem is undecidable if you can prove that the shortcut can not exist, it is decidable if you know a shortcut exists (knowing the formula is not required), and potentially either decidable or undecidable if a proof in either direction is unknown.
While it technically correct to say this it also gets the wrong point across because it leaves out the fact that ordering changes create only a small difference. Other examples where arithmetic is not commutative, e.g.
matrix multiplication , can create much larger differences.
