Next time I'm at the gym I'm going to be very weird looking at everyone putting their pants on.

This is your fault. I will not thank you for your service

I feel like assuming you already know at least one programming language it's a lot easier to pick up another one then it is to learn another language. But for the first one, I agree with others that it's like comparing appels to oranges.

Learning to code is way different than learning a language

What is this? Do I want to know?

What does American football have to do with living bushes?

You can't send bits at a constant rate in this case. You essentialy get to send one very large number, the amount of time since your decided starting time (plus the one bit we were actually intended to use). The bit count grows logarithmicly with time

Thus, the amount of bits n you can send over t time steps would be

n = log(t)/log(2) + 1

As an example, say they wait 8 seconds before sending you a 1. You have received the number 1000 and the bit 1. That's a total of 5 bits.

If they choose to wait twice as long, 16 seconds, they have in effect transmitted the numbers 10000 and one additional bit, a total of 6 bits. Double the time but only one additional bit.

"landhöjning", land raising, we call this in Sweden. Here it's a well known phenomenon here. But it was really cool to see a map, I didn't know it was so much faster in Canada. Also, I didn't know that other parts are moving down due to this

No, as far as I know the convention is to measure by melted height. Although this may be more useful for actually understand how much snow fell. Measured by molten height, the actual snow is about ten times as deep

Edit: I could be wrong, but this is the way that Yr and SMHI measure things

Also, my android phone calculator says 16

So for my intents and purposes, this is ambiguous and dumb but the answer is 16 :)

EDIT: I own a TI calculator

Do you make this comic? And the one on analognowhere? I've only really read techno mage (which is amazing) and now I see this one?

I would love to have/make some of that fabric. Seems really cool

Is there a guy behind the woman with the book hugging her? There are two arms without a clear owner

What? Milk and chocolate? Another shocking discovery that cultures vary. In Sweden it would be porridge for the hustomte (house gnome), at least in my experience

 
 
 

The previous page i visited had that image and apparently my phone really liked it. The guy in the image is apparently named Olle Alkholm

 
 
 
 
 

And do believe that I, this random guy on the internet has a soul

I personally don't believe that I anyone else has a soul. From my standup I don't se any reason to believe that our consciousness and our so called "soul" would be any more then something our brain is making up.
