would it not just produce 'b/c'? assuming 'b/c' is an existent file path

Thanks for the correction. It seems that all the layman’s explanations on Galois theory i have seen have been simplified to the point of being technically wrong, as well as underselling it.

I am no mathematician, but i think you may be overstating Galois result. it says that you cant write a single closed form expression for the roots of any quintic using only (+,-,*,/,nth roots). This does not necessarily stop you from expressing each root individually with the standard algebraic operations.

isnt most of the advantage of soap is that it gets the germs off your skin and washes them down the drain. the soap does not have to kill them to work.

a collision can send debris into an orbit with a higher eccentricity. these orbits may not last very long as they would also have a lower perigee.

Like if one of the things you have to do is claim to the other device that you’re 2.1 would that get you in trouble?

nintendo tried that with the gameboy. games had to have a copy of the nintendo logo in them. i dont think it was ever tested in court though.

To an archeologist both artifacts are worth having, just look at Pompeii the frescoes tell you alot but the graffiti on the sides of the buildings tells you something as well.

i use the rss feed of the channels i am subscribed to and download the videos i want to watch with yt-dlp. i may browse the homepage every so often but i just copy the links and download them.

I would have thought it was a typo of 'seafloor' rather than 'seabed'.

a simple solution is to have emergency contacts written in your wallet, with the added benefit of letting bystanders call for you when you are incapacitated.

that seems to be in the same vain as this presentation by guy steele https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ahvzDzKdB0 .

I think my strategy for JavaScript going forward is to 'drop & run'.

LLM attackers to find the LLM vibe coding bugs and flaws. sounds like they already have a man on the inside.
