Hello, I'm the author of this project. Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.

I wonder if that characteristic correlates with greater math ability.

It's rather ironic that a discussion on what Christians believe would be based entirely on quotes from before the birth of Christ.

I think though that he did say something relevant to the question at hand: "The kingdom of God is inside you" (Luke 17:21) (ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ ἐντὸς ὑμῶν ἐστιν).

Now isn't God in his kingdom ?

Tat tvam asi.

Sorting has a simple local optimum implies global optimum property. If a list is sorted than any (not necessarily sequential) sublist is sorted, and the converse. No such property applies to TSP.

I think that the best way to think about why some combinatorial problems are hard and others easy isn't to ask what makes a problem hard, but rather what makes a problem easy. Combinatorial problems seem to be hard by default. It takes some special simplifying property to make them easy.

That still seems like a major issue, because I and probably quite a few other people rely on the security page to decide when to look into upgrading.

I hope there is some rationale for why the security fixes in later releases were not serious enough to warrant an advisory on the security page, rather than it just being an oversight.

That's concerning. Do you have a link/source for that ?

Out of curiosity, what would be the advantage of DTL over TTL, which I would think would be the default choice for building discrete logic circuits ?

Yeah, that might work with a default keyboard layout but it doesn't work with a polytonic Greek layout. How would you type a lowercase alpha with an acute accent and a macron that way ?

Yeah, I was hoping to find some general information on how the Compose key is (or was) supposed to work. It's easy to find info on how to assign the Compose key to a particular key but I haven't found anything on how to actually use it to input more or less complex character codes.

Part of the problem may also be the difference between precomposed and non precomposed glyphs in Unicode, which I don't really understand, but it seems that if a keyboard layout is designed to use precomposed glyphs it may not allow you to further compose those with other code points.

For example there is a character that is a lowercase alpha with both an acute accent and a macron on top. With the right font it displays correctly (it probably wouldn't if I tried to copy-paste it here) but I don't know how to enter it on the keyboard. I suspect that's because there's no precomposed Unicode codepoint for it and my keyboard layout only seems to work with those.

The correct encoding for it is "GREEK SMALL LETTER ALPHA WITH MACRON" (Unicode name) composed with "'".

Has MRI actually been proven to work with similar carbonized scrolls ?

Does anyone know of a good resource explaining how the compose key is supposed to work in general beyond the simple cases like those discussed in this article ?

I have an interest in some less spoken languages like Ancient Greek and Sanskrit and though there are specific keyboard layouts that mostly work there are still some less common combinations of diacritics used in writing Ancient Greek, for example, that don't seem to be covered.

Is there some way to use the compose key for entering general Unicode sequences for example, that would work for different applications ?

I'm a Linux user but I'd be interested in seeing a solid exposition on this topic even if it was for a different OS.

I assume it's just old inventory. It's not supposed to be refurbished because I enabled the "New" filter.

Yes, and you can still buy those new on Amazon with no mention that they're unsupported, just like the chromebooks.

With the high level of self awareness that you've developed as evidenced by this post I would think you would be largely immune to falling into the kind of traps you're worried about. Maybe you should ask yourself why you don't trust your self enough to avoid such traps in the future ?

I think there is also a risk in becoming too skeptical or even cynical. I agree that there is much in most religions that is not useful and can sometimes by very harmful yet at the same time I think many religions contain elements of truth that are worth being open to.

My recommendation would be to approach all ideas with openness while maintaining a healthy amount of skepticism. Try to find the nuggets of gold without becoming burdened with tons of sand.
