This is essentially what 'swatting' is.
I don't believe there is anything 'weird' about the tie-breaker, it's a pretty standard technique - local elections, tournament tie-breaking, movie night voting. What's weird about using second and third choices to…
I don't do a lot of this kind of work, but as an interested party with sunday spare time, I think the problem here is that you're scoring anything other than the first picks. If you just look at first picks, Newbie…
She's a Star Trek character that died a few times.
I thought the abuse was part of the story. The lengths we will go to preserve ourselves, even to destroying the weakest of us in the effort. The subsequent Ender novels delve into Ender coming to grips with how he was…
The idea of a basic level of income isn't that it goes away once I find a job that pays the same or more, it's that I'm always guaranteed that base pay. If I take a job that pays an additional 2800 per month, then I'm…
As someone whose employer just underwent Chapter 11 and a subsequent sale, I hope that the power-jousting, cockfights, backstabbing, and general dumbassery that I experienced will not happen to the members of THQ. The…
In most RTS games, an arbitrary Resource Mine generates resource X at a fixed rate, but the resource is delivered into your resource pool in fixed-rate chunks. 100 units of X per minute, delivered at the top of the…
Confirmed -- I've used WebStorm and it's derivative PHPStorm for several years, they are excellent IDEs.
Another blog that talks about an ambiguously-named product and provides no links to or descriptions of said product. I had no idea what Cheddar was after a couple minutes of skimming the blog posts.
I'd imagine the allure of getting in early, perhaps?
Who would get offended by that? It's not even close to offensive.
PNG8 (which IE6 supports) has had support for alpha transparency for a long time, but only Fireworks was able to create those files. I'm guessing that these guys are making PNG8s? I haven't tested the site myself.
I'd like to see the prosecutors of these cases jailed for the equivalent time lost by by those wrongfully imprisoned. "Sovereign immunity?" Sorry, I guess you should do your job then. If you find out later that you did…
The simplest solution is that each member of the household customize the seat to their liking before performing any actions. If you fall in and flush your intestines out, well, tough giggles.
Big buckets of data my ass. My 2gb cap is pathetic, and I've only got 3g.
I need to learn from this. I'm usually too excited to start turning out some code, and I almost always end up at a dead end a few weeks later (talking about personal side projects).
Just a guess, but the inclusion of -ms prefixes indicate the use of a CSS preprocessor and some off-the-shelf mixin libraries for all the fancy crap.
> The more the iPhone succeeds, the less leverage the carriers have, Mr. Kuittinen explained. All they have is bandwidth. I look forward to the day when mobile carriers are nothing but dumb pipes. Maybe then they'll…
I'd spend $600 on a new phone if my monthly bill was going to be $30.
The three laptops I had before my MBP were all from different companies, ASUS, Gateway, Dell, and I hated the hardware on all of them. There was always something going on. The case didn't close right, the battery life…
That's a really good point that I've begun realizing more frequently in my work. People are blown away by most things, and there is almost no correlation between how difficult the problem was and how amazed they are. In…
Why do the technical people always seem to get the short end of the stick? I have people approaching me on a monthly basis with their 'great idea' and 'all I need is someone to code it', and compensation varies from…
What problems does it not solve that the unframework concept is supposed to solve? I'm a but curious on what I'm missing out on, as I continuously feel like it meets or exceeds all of my needs.
> Thats idea is lovely and all but Flourish never made it out of BETA after years of development. I'm happy to see Flourish getting some notice, even though there doesn't seem to be a lot of love for it with the…
