agents have taught us that there are more responses to a PR review than: 1. LTGM; or 2. You should use single quotes rather than double quotes for this string because that is less visually imposing Related

Java’s String.indexOf can be slow (quadratic) In Java, you find the location of a substring using indexOf. String haystack = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"; String needle = "fox"; int index = haystack.indexOf(needle); Naively, you might implement ind…

String theory for the masses. This is how popular science books should be like: interesting, enchanting, inviting.

I think to a large extent you feel like it's a skill issue. It's not that the capability is not there. It's that you just haven't found a way to string it together of what's available.

But then all you need to connect that to the outside world is like an optical fiber, right? An optical fiber cable which you can string up on poles, you can run underground, you could even use microwave links if you really wanted to.

Yeah, that was a leading candidate for many decades. I think it's slowly pulling out of fashion. It's not matching experiment.

Programmer and writer; co-wrote The Rust Programming Language and worked on Rust's documentation for years.
When should I use String vs &str? Rust has two main string types: String and &str . Sometimes, people argue that these two types make Rust code difficult to write, because you have to think about which one you should be using in a given situation. My ex…

Their words
I do think that string theorists were a bit overly ambitious… Not overly ambitious, but a little bit overly arrogant in the beginning, thinking they could solve many problems that they weren’t going to solve.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
