More like a quarter.

Hate to break it to you, but almost every language uses 0-based indexing.

Mathematicians and computer scientists are natural enemies.

Badgers? We don’t need no stinking badgers!

People on the other side don’t deserve a mnemonic.

Made me feel like I was crazy the first time I installed pedals on a bike.

My cat used to go in my bathroom and yowl until I went in and got him. Now he has progressed to just yowling in any room with no people in it.

They’re usually end notes.

Then use C or C++ if you really need performance.

And that’s where I stopped. I’m a real working programmer who’s done tons of work in C++, so I know firsthand that it absolutely sucks compared to Rust. Go back to Typescript if you hate Rust so much.

const

They don’t do it well, but an attempt was made.

To be fair, that’s an issue in almost every imperative language and even some functional languages. Rust, C, and C++ are the only imperative languages I know of that make a serious effort to restrict mutability.

My brother in Christ, the average person doesn’t even know Lemmy exists.

It’s not representing anything will if people don’t know about it. And I think most people who shall out the extra money for a brand like Chocolonely are doing it because they’re already aware of what a clusterfuck the chocolate industry is.

A drone made up to look like some kind of weird flying animal.

Me personally? Probably not. But I’ve read that safrole is a good starting point, and it comes from sassafras.

Is someone trying to make root beer? Or molly?

Cool professors just give you a formula sheet.

What matters is the total mass of the black hole, not its density. If you replaced Earth’s core with a black hole of the same mass, the gravity you’d feel at the surface (or beneath the surface) would be the same. You’d only notice a difference if you were in the hollow region formed by removing the core.

The way I see it, the real problem with a planet like Earth is that because the inside is so hot, the inner parts are too soft to support their own weight, and the crust is probably too fragile to support its own weight. That’s not a problem, though, in an asteroid or a planet that’s solid all the way through.

This is the sort of arrant pedantry up with which I will not put.
