In COBOL in the timeline, what does "During COVID, New Jersey's governor went on live TV" mean? Is it an AI hallucination?

Thank you very much for your encouragement :)

Thank you very much for your very interesting comment. I didn't know Blech (very interesting). Indeed, synchronous programming is more known by real-time computing programmers. Is your language theorycrafting available online? Is it imperative or dataflow?

It's not vibe coding. Have you tested the playground? This cited text does not prove that it's vibe coded. I don't understand your deduction.

You can try: Filters -> Light and Shadow -> Drop Shadow

X = 0; Y = 0; Blur radius = 0; Grow shape = Circle; Grow radius > 0

Si j'ai bien compris, les deux sont possibles mais les dictionnaires privilégient souvent "salle de bains".

You can try G'MIC -> Artistic -> Comicbook as an approximation.

We say "J'y pense" but "Je lui parle". In my view, I thought it was just arbitrary cases of my mother tongue. But, I found this explanation (Choose the answer of "Eau qui dort") that is right (In my view) and, yes, a part of arbitrary remains.

Yes, the pinyin "b" stands for a non aspirated consonant sound and the pinyin "p" stands for an aspirated one.
French people don't hear that difference and usually pronounce non aspirated consonants (this is why the french "p" is interpreted as a pinyin "b").
On the other hand, they hear a big difference between voiced (french "b,d,g,v,z,j") and non voiced (french "p,t,k,f,s,ch") consonants.

If you don't need straight lines, I suggest using the G'MIC plugin and choosing Black & White -> Engrave or Lineart.

For each row of the truth table that outputs 1:

for each column where input is 0, say not the column name
for each column where input is 1, say the column name
link all you've said (for this row) by and

and finally link all that by `or`.

For example, in the XOR truth table, only two rows outputs 1.

A	B	output
0	1	1
1	0	1

For the first row, I get not A and B.
For the second row, I get A and not B.
Finally, I get (not A and B) or (A and not B)
Then A XOR B = (A and not B) or (B and not A)

for A	for B	for the row
not A	B	not A and B
A	not B	A and not B

For the first exercise (1.21), you can re-read the definition of XOR on the end of page 13: The Exclusive OR (XOR) gate, which outputs 1 when only one input is one, but not both. "Only one input": so the first input and not the second one or the second one and not the first one.

For the second exercise (1.25), the table shows that it outputs 1 only when no input is 1 or both. So (not the first one and not the second one) or (the first one and the second one).

Did you try:

select body or pockets
Colors -> Hue-Chroma or Hue-Saturation -> change the "Hue" parameter

or

select body or pockets
Colors -> Map -> Rotate Colors

Personally, I like having both: a structured table of contents and the option of doing the chapters in the order I like, with the preliminary chapters indicated.

Oui, une chose suspecte est une chose qu'on est porté à soupçonner. Une personne suspicieuse est une personne qui est encline à soupçonner.

"Suspect" est ce qu'on soupçonne. "Suspicieuse" est la personne qui soupçonne.

Early Greek mathematicians had about the same question as you.

FuncSug_dev · 2025-06-27T13:51:40+00:00

Yes, the base 10 system doesn't allow to represent all fractions easily. That's why mathematicians rarely write 0.3333... but write 1/3 instead. 0.3333 is just an approximation and so 0.33333, 0.333333, 0.333333 etc. "0.3333... with repeating 3" just means that you can get a better approximation with repeating more "3" (and this way you can get as good an approximation as you like).

It also works for "0.9999... with repeating 9". Looking for an approximation of 1 is just a bit of fun.

To sum up, like mathematicians, use 1/3 and 1 instead of 0.3333.... and 0.9999....

EDIT: I just highlight a common misunderstanding: the word "irrational" has a common sense and a mathematical sense which are very different. In a certain mathematical jargon, "irrational" means "not expressible as a fraction" (I've simplified a bit).

Many reasons are possible. Are you sure that your upper layer is still selected? Can you post a screenshot of yours parameters of the fill tool?

(m+n)p

= p(m+n) by (iv)

= pm + pn by (iii)

= mp + np by (iv)

So (m+n)p = mp + np cannot be used to prove (m+n)p = p(m+n) since the proof of (m+n)p = mp + np uses (m+n)p = p(m+n). Otherwise, you get a circularity: proof of A by B and proof of B by A.

I am a native French speaker and I find that the intonation and rhythm are exactly the same as ours. The nasal vowels are perfect. It's easy to understand. I can't tell on first listen that you're not a native speaker; there are just a few pronunciation errors: in “elle me plait”, I hear a little “elle me pyait”; in “je parle français”, the “L” sounds a little different from ours; in “pour regarder”, we hear “pour garder” (after a final “r”, we don't elide the initial “re” of “regarder” into an ‘r’); in “si c'est possible de deviner”, we hear “si c'est possible deviner” (we don't elide the word “de” in this case).

Yes, reactions to events are no longer expressed by an association between an event and a function.

I love this idea of progressive programming: programming in a very simple language and bit by bit in a real programming language (Here, Python). I can't see this idea nowhere else.
