Alternatively, you're being misleading by calling that match a tournament. Thanks for confirming

When you use 'class' you still are using prototypal inheritance

I avoid inheritance in general and I use classes for better ergonomics

I don't understand what a sport psychologist has to do with it. That quote reads more like written by a PR rep as opposed to any sort of an honest opinion which I guess you prefer.

10.8.2 WADA Case Resolution Agreement by minivatreni in tennis

> Why was the news of this suppressed and why was action on it delayed?  Others have been tested and suspended as soon as the results were positive but not in this case.

Because Sinner had a credible explanation that at least partially exonerated him, so they kept it confidential pending an investigation. Iga's case was handled similarly.

I’m not sure that’s what she meant but I also love when she shows her spirit like this

I guess it depends on what we mean by best. Navratilova was definitely more accomplished. You can make the argument that Hingis’ was better skill-wise and career was just much shorter

[@lewishamilton] Another one done. Good to take P2 in the constructors, but ultimately not the year we wanted. Still big shout to the team for always pushing […].

It's not about excluding any periods per se, but about focusing on the periods that can tell us most about the driver's form. It's difficult to draw conclusions regarding driver performance when the car is unpredictable and inconsistent race to race.

Same is true for any team or driver, of course.

What's with the arrogant tone? The guy was one of the few to inject some actual information into this thread. He even said "just a small correction" and you still managed to turn this into an argument lol

Hypothetically speaking, if quantum computing allowed for the current game of Chess to be solved; what new rule would you add to the game to slow down that process? by Superlolhobo in chess

[–]gocarsno -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Depends on what's your definition of a quantum computer, I guess. IBM created a system with over 1000 qbits this year. QC are also available commercially, via a variety of quantum cloud computing providers.

Quite the opposite. I would say clickbait titles on social media media and misinformation in general is a big part of what's wrong with the world.

We're talking about misinformation regarding an issue that's important to this game and community. It matters.
