I enjoy things around information theory (and data compression), complexity theory (and cryptography), read hard scifi, currently work on weird ML (we'll see how it goes), am somewhat literal minded and have approximate knowledge of random things. I like when statements have truth values, and when things can be described simply (which is not exactly the same as shortly) and yet have interesting properties.
I live in the largest city of Switzerland (and yet have cow and sheep pastures and a swimmable lake within a few hundred meters of my place :)). I speak Polish, English, German, and can understand simple Swiss German and French.
If in doubt, please err on the side of being direct with me. I very much appreciate when people tell me that I'm being inaccurate. I think that satisfying people's curiosity is the most important thing I could be doing (and usually enjoy doing it). I am normally terse in my writing and would appreciate requests to verbosify.
I appreciate it if my grammar or style is corrected (in any of the languages I use here).

This also looks like the hinges used in folding tables in trains (such as https://img.chmedia.ch/2019/1/31/3781ec25-d1b6-4e51-914b-a81dcd0cb2ed.jpeg?width=1080&height=720&fit=bounds&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=5246,3497,x0,y0).

I’m looking for a job, so…
I’ll be living in Gliwice (Poland), so I’m preferably looking for a remote job that can be done vaguely within the EU timezone, but local in office is fine too. I’m a (mostly backend) software developer with ~10 year of experience. Currently most fluent in Rust, but no language should be a barrier. I also have experience as an SRE and maintaining servers, plus lots of maths knowledge. I’m happy to do any of the above and more, as long as the result has a non-negative impact on society. I believe all my past employers have been very happy with my performance, and I can definitely promise you’ll be too!

Made by Zach, but not Zachtronics: Kaizen is the just-announced Japanese-factory automation game from Coincidence that'll have you managing and optimizing an assembly line making all sorts of stuff

https://atomic-spectra.net/ shows emission spectra of various atoms _with intensities_ and with pictures acquired experimentally.
@mcc it's iirc the only voting system that's an exception in the Arrow's theorem
@koakuma You can reduce problems that are NPC to that. E.g. for 3SAT consider a string that is equal to "01" repeated 2*num_var or so times, "#", "%001%010%011%100%101%110%111" repeated n_clauses times and a regex that goes "(.)(.).*" repeated n_vars times, "#", ".*%\a\b\c.*" repeated for each clause, with a, b, c replaced with 2* identifiers of variables in that clause, incremented by 1 if the variables appears negated.
Or shit with appropriate level of break ability: Ikea shipped me a glass teapot and mug in a 1m^3 box once.
My naive view (so take it with a boulder of salt): they might have different bacteria in the alimentary tract.
TIL that in oceans (assuming lack of salinity gradients) it's actually the coldest water that sinks:
> The temperature of maximum density and the freezing point of water decrease as salt is added to water, and the temperature of maximum density decreases more rapidly than the freezing point. At salinities less than 24.7 psu the density maximum is reached before the ice point, while at the higher salinities more typical of the open oceans the maximum density is never achieved naturally.

For my father: a priest accidentally swapping the date of birth and date of christening, the town records burning down, and a clerk misunderstanding what mistake occurred when copying from the church records.
@mcc You have that problem if you wake up on time, too (expired sleep will remain expired forever). Hacky solution: reset it to some time in far future.
But your setup with Either need not require creating and destroying the future all the time: you can make an `Either<&Sleep, SomethingElse>` (well, remake it each iteration).
IMO a better approach would be to require an affirmative specification that a path is local. Cutting out some specific parts of a cartesian product of features because users find them unintuitive makes for more complicated scripting.
By individualistic drivers of performance you mean the assumption that performance of a team is a function of the sum of "performances" of members? (I would guess something like this, but my very literal reading leaves me confused whether this has something to do with some kinds of intrinsic motivation.)
