    Question of the day: Why is everyone on StackOverflow so snobby and arrogant about their programming abilities?

    It's just rude. You have a question and they destroy you for it. Even if you're a novice.

    EDIT: To clarify, I'm stating this given that all questioning rules have been followed and all respects and manners have been given to other users.

    Pumping Lemma Automaton with two cycles?

    Posted: 31 May 2018 04:16 AM PDT

    Hello, I understood the basic idea of the pumping lemma, and also can prove that a language like an bn (where Alphabet is {a, b} and n a natural number)is not a regular one. This I also find understandable as an bn cannot be constructed with a regular grammar. But I'm not sure I really have understood it, so this question:

    What is with a grammar that produces words like am bn for n,m in Natural Numbers. I could have a regular grammar like S->aA, A->aA, A->b, A->bB, B->bB, B->b. So as these rules are permitted, I clearly have a regular language in the end. But how can I construct a pumping lemma automaton with only one cycle that recognizes this language? As I understand it, if I cannot find an automaton with one cycle, this is not a regular language but that would be contradictory to the Grammar above.

    cyber security labs in the US

    Posted: 30 May 2018 05:31 AM PDT

    I am a CS student who is mainly interested in operating systems, system programming, reverse engineering and binary exploitation. I am planning to sign up for a Master's degree program after graduation, and I think it would be the best if I could keep studying subjects related to cyber security. Can anyone recommend me some good cyber security labs, Master or PhD programs in the US that are tolerant to students from outside their school?

    How worth is a 2nd year course in Systems/machine architecture

    Posted: 30 May 2018 08:19 PM PDT

    I have a choice between taking this course or taking another one that interests me (Machine learning).

    What do you think, Will not taking this course prove detrimental to my future career ?

    Here's the following course description:
    COSC 211 (3) Machine Architecture

    Organization and design of computer systems and their impact on the practice of software development. Instruction set architecture and assembly programming languages, design of central processing units (CPU), memory hierarchy and cache organization, input and output programming. [3-2-0]

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Running biosimulation

    Posted: 30 May 2018 08:08 PM PDT

    I'm helping to design a simulation of a small ecosystem involving real-time mesh deformation and many AI entities. I'm not restricted heavily by the number of CPUs or GPUs or by the number of manhours necessary to create the program. Which would be a better approach for this problem, a BEAM language like Erlang or C++ with MPI and OpenMP

    I came across a "Good and not-dull" Compilers book

    Posted: 30 May 2018 09:30 AM PDT

    Has someone made it before? A program/database that can search for/generate meaningful "acronym" ?

    Posted: 30 May 2018 09:06 AM PDT

    Many acronym are easier to remember when you know what it stands for. For example, I just found out "nbsp" stands for non-breaking spaces so I'll probably no longer go to the commenting wiki page just for the 4-letter code for line breaks every time.

    What about some random strings or abbreviations not having intuitive meanings? That would save our memory so much if there were such a program which could search the Internet, articles and corpora and output a meaning phrase consisting words whose first letters are the same with our random strings concerned. Perhaps it gave out "not bad social phobia" for "nbsp" so I could associate the meaningless letters with this phrase, making it easier to remember.

    With countless resources available, it wouldn't be a problem to generate much more meaningful catchy phrases.

    A simple guide on Spanning Trees (distributed networks)

    Posted: 30 May 2018 05:04 AM PDT

    Hello everyone, I wrote a simple guide some time ago http://john.mercouris.online/spanning-trees.html, when I could not find any suitable information online. I hope you find my explanation useful!
