according to the liberation newspaper, documents dating back to a 2014 inspection by the French National Agency for the Security of Computer Systems reported a staggering detail: "the password of the louvre's video surveillance server was simply " louvre. "

For general context-free grammars, at least if you count ambiguities for each tree (which I'm fairly certain JSON's grammar doesn't have), you can do it as a bunch of interleaved recursions, though converting that to a single polynomial is difficult in general

That's not a problem, since what I was trying to say is in fact that you can reduce every recursion in JSON's grammar not involving element into Kleene stars, so element is complex regex of element, and that's the fixed point

If you use a form of BNF with regular expressions, you can inline everything into <element>, crunch that big regular expression into its rational generating function, and get a fixed point formula for the JSON one

I don't want to get into the weeds but I do think that people talking about this stuff with NC specifically should learn about the Moral Mondays protests, why and how they happened, and the name and title of the person who started them.

I think you're confused about who you're talking about, because it sounds like you might be describing pre-state hunter-gatherers which was a very different thing from medieval peasantry

Knowing things like "where the word Β«serfΒ» comes from" and "when the Northern United States industrialized" I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be hard to turn this sort of statistic into Confederate apologia

Ironically that actually definitely falls under the enumerated rights of the copyright holder, but then gets its own carveout as educational uses are one of the big things that get you pushed towards it being fair use

I don't know about the pairing but the Frobenius is basically just x mapsto x^p over a field where p=0; it turns out that this also preserves addition and the integers mod p (Fermat's little theorem)

I think the role of straight-up luck shouldn't be discounted either.

I think I recall seeing that preserving supersymmetry requires that parallel transport preserve a spinor, and I know that in 6 real dimensions that's equivalent to the monodromy group being SU(3) in SO(6) which can be shown equivalent to the Calabi-Yau condition

That's not even correct, though; the original was "Can't have shit in Cincinnati"

I feel like this is a message I try to send by being visible. I am a trans adult. I wish I could have had gender-affirming care as a kid. I didn’t.

But I’m happy. I’m successful in life and love. I am myself.

I’m sorry the pricks are doing this to you, but there’s always a light ahead.

It is indeed a loan from Japanese けび, though it's rarely used to refer to the art style in Japanese; that is usually called "SD"there

Maybe a bit surprising that they haven't fallen into the MAGA wormhole by crank magnetism but the transvestigation stuff is 100% something that people actually believe in

I thought it was middle-of-the word and end-of-the-word more than anything else. But it was definitely long s and distinct from f, albeit similar enough to make it easy to mistake it

Only dating advice i can offer is that that old carbon in solution in river water is absorbed by fish and then enters the bones of people who eat a lot of fish. Radiocarbon dates measured on the bones of these humans might come out too old, and a lot of Soviet era finds have never been calibrated
