True | tinou | null | > With that framing, how is it possible to verify the solution in polynomial time? How do you know that you have found the optimum solution without first comparing it to all other possible solutions?
P and NP are classes of *decision* problems (whose outcome is a boolean). TSP is an *optimisation* problem (where you want to minimize/maximize a function). If you want to express it has a decision problem, you can consider the following (parameterized) one : "There is a tour of length ≤ L that goes through the whole set of points". This one is clearly in NP for all values of L. | null | 0 | 1316154689 | False | 0 | c2k9fll | t3_kgfhb | null | t1_c2k9fll | t1_c2k4uci | null | 1427606862 | 3 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | Paiev | null | >And P are problems that can be solved without checking every possible answer?
Not necessarily. Some P problems can be solved by checking every possible answer. For example, the problem "given a list of numbers, determine if they are all even" is in P, and it could be solved by simply checking each number in the list.
P is problems that can be easily solved, while NP is problems that have solutions that can be easily checked.
As you go into the specifics of whether certain problems are in NP or not, it's important to bring up that P and NP are groups of what's called *decision problems*: problems that have a yes or no answer. For example, "determine if a number is prime" is a decision problem, while "find the factors of a number" is not. The decision problem for the rock pile problem would be "determine if there exists a partition of the rocks into two piles of equal weight". Note that this problem always has a solution: either they can be or they can't. | null | 0 | 1316155219 | False | 0 | c2k9h0s | t3_kgfhb | null | t1_c2k9h0s | t1_c2k68mi | null | 1427606889 | 2 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | adrianmonk | null | > This is true, but one-time pads are useless for most Internet communication
They're useless now because we have better options. They might also be useless if we didn't, but they might not.
Suppose tomorrow we wake up and all forms of encryption except one-time pad have been broken. Well, Alice can still send Bob a message by mailing him a 1 TB hard drive full of random bits. It sucks to have to physically mail something, but at least you get to trade 1 TB of data, which is not too shabby.
Of course, that has a weakness: Alice can only (securely) talk to Bob. But you can get any-to-any communication (without pre-arranged trade of pad data) by using a trusted broker. Alice sends the trusted broker a 1 TB hard drive full of random bits. And Bob also sends the trusted broker 1 TB of random bits. Now when Alice wants to send Bob a message, she uses the one-time pad to deliver it to the trusted broker, who decrypts it and then re-encrypts it using one-time pad again but with the random data they've received from Bob.
Now, you may rightly point out that the trusted broker can read all their communications, so they'd better be incredibly trustworthy. Well, you can improve upon that. Get *two* trusted brokers, Broker A and Broker B. When Alice wants to send Bob a message M, she sends random data R through Broker A (using one-time pad), and she sends M XOR R through the Broker B (using one-time pad). In other words, she uses one-time pad *on top of* one-time pad. Both brokers can decrypt what they receive from Alice, but both of them get something which is useless by itself. It would require collusion between Broker A and Broker B in order to decrypt the communication from Alice to Bob.
Of course, collusion is possible. One way to deal with that is to increase the number of brokers. You can reasonably expect 2 brokers to possible collude, but what if there are 8 and all 8 need to cooperate in order to decrypt the data? Still possible, but less likely and probably useful enough to consider using it.
There may also be viable schemes you can build on top of that where you flip around between pairs of brokers (based on previous communication), so that brokers don't necessarily know who to collude *with* to decrypt your data. Or maybe you eat up pre-shared one-time pad data to trade new one-time pad data, in order to perturb things.
It's all kind of messy and not as easy as what we have now, but it might still turn out to be practical if necessary. | null | 0 | 1316155829 | False | 0 | c2k9inj | t3_kgfhb | null | t1_c2k9inj | t1_c2k65gs | null | 1427606903 | 6 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

That's not what he said.

True | JamesF | null | I don't think codecs are super complicated at all. I think it's a binary thing: If you have written an encoder/decoder or two, you can pick your way through the source for another encoder/decoder without much commenting.
When I look at proresdec.c versus e.g. an MPEG-2 decoder in the ffmpeg source, I see a lot of similarities. I suspect the guy who wrote the MPEG-2 decoder almost appreciates the lack of comments in proresdec.c.
What you probably want is a general document that explains the generic structure for any encoder / decoder source-file in ffmpeg.
Also, codecs tend to be written in a very hardware-centric fashion - hardware guys don't do comments :) | null | 0 | 1316157266 | False | 0 | c2k9m63 | t3_kgqdd | null | t1_c2k9m63 | t1_c2k9e36 | null | 1427606959 | 4 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | ThatsALogicalFallacy | null | P, NP and Turing machines are mathematical constructs. They follow mathematical definitions. The mathematical definition of a decision problem lying in P, or being computable in constant time is that there exists a Turing machine that always computes the correct answer given the time constraints. The mathematical definition doesn't specify that you have to prove that the Turing machine does this, you simply need to prove that one *exists*. I know that a Turing machine exists which always says "yes" and there's also one that always says "no". One of those two always outputs the answer to any specific question.
Does it sound like a technicality that has no bearing on the real world? Maybe. On the other hand, if I *did* have a proof that there was a 500-clique in that graph, I could tell you that proof and output "yes" in constant time. I'm sure you'd agree that this would be sufficient criteria to call the problem computable in constant time. However, there are some mathematical statements which are true, and yet there are no proofs which exist to show that they're true. If I could still hand you the correct answer, but there's no way I could prove to you that it was the correct answer, would you tell me that my machine didn't perform the task within the time constraints? Probably not. Because it actually did. | null | 0 | 1316159229 | False | 0 | c2k9qjc | t3_kgfhb | null | t1_c2k9qjc | t1_c2k9dt4 | null | 1427607012 | 5 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

But the proof's *existence* does not imply that *you* know what it is, nor that *anyone* knows what it is. It still requires work (i.e. computation) to produce it.
As an analogy, Andrew Wiles proved Fermat's Last Theorem in the 1990's. In (say) 1985, the proof existed (in a mathematical sense) but nobody knew whether it did. The problem "does there exist a proof for Fermat's Last Theorem" did NOT have a constant-time solution just because someone could have spit out the proof *if* they magically knew what it was. It took work to discover the proof. | null | 0 | 1316159891 | False | 0 | c2k9ruh | t3_kgfhb | null | t1_c2k9ruh | t1_c2k9kh8 | null | 1427607024 | 1 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

True | Paiev | null | "Problem x has a constant time solution" is equivalent to "there exists a Turing machine that solves x in constant time". And in your Fermat example, the problem *did* have a constant-time solution because there exists a Turing machine that spits out its proof.

True | madewulf | null | Thanks for the very relevant comment.
For you first point : the response is that the map shows the number of people that were born in a country and migrated to another and that are still alive (hence no Irish immigration). That said, it is difficult to have a concise human readable explanation of the data set (see here :http://www.migrationdrc.org/research/typesofmigration/global_migrant_origin_database.html)
For you second point : I tried to add arrows, but it cluttered the map too much. I might try to add triangles on the arrows, but honestly, it is quite difficult to get it right on svg (that said, writing this, I may have thought of a solution).
For your third point, changing the colors dynamically is not really an option if you want to really see the gradation (it is already difficult to find 10 visually discernible colors, I add to use this to get it right: http://colorbrewer2.org/). That said, your idea with proportional bars is good, I will try it.

True | johnwaterwood | null | Your comparison is a little silly. I love C++, so I absolutely don't want to attack it, but you're comparing apples with oranges here.
First and foremost, you're a **stack** allocation in C++, but a **heap** allocation in Java. This is fine if the usecase asks for it, but just as often you need to allocate on the heap in C++.
Also, you're declaring the variable as the actual type, but it's more common to declare the shorter interface Map.
You also do not have to repeat the generic typing in Java. The second one can be left empty.
You thus get:
**Java**
Map<String, String> map = new HashMap<>();
** C++ **
map<string, string> mymap = new map<string, string>;
Second, in idiomatic C++, you very often don't import the name space. It's very typical to see std::cout << "blaa" << std::endl;
You can import System in Java, so you'd then write out.println("blaa"); hmmm, I guess we just made Java a little shorter.
