My only reply to this: Ram is free. You are optimizing the wrong thing.
I have found that any art does the trick for me. Over my life I've played Viola, crafted pottery, attempted to paint, and done photography. Of those two were wildly expensive (photography, oil painting), and the others…
Ours was prepared, and admittedly it looked terrible. I would second adding this to the recommendations.
This guy suffers from the "schools are job training" mentality that I've noticed has grown in popularity recently. He expects students from the university to be able to work on his development environment without…
Just so you know, if you plant an apple tree from an apple you buy at the grocery store you will likely be sued for patent infringement. Though, it's probably sterile anyway. So, the idea of a "free apple" is a pipe…
I like the facebook redesign. I think it's snappy and I can still easily get to all the information I need when looking up contact info. Further, the AJAX loads pages considerably faster, and in many cases incrementally…
Ah I knew there was the checkin, I wasn't aware it was currently useable. Thanks for the info, I will have to check it out.
It took me a very long time to learn how to hack without smoking after I got used to it. For those that have never done it, there is a real measurable performance increase for smoking while programming. It comes at the…
In good news, the security conscious part of you needs to stop browsing the web in a graphical browser now, because all the competitors were also hacked in a similar manner :). /me ponders how secure lynx is
I agree it's worth discussing (especially if you're unsure about future malleability of the web framework to your needs), and I apologize if I was excessively curt.
As I see it, if we get enough traffic to be worried about scaling issues we'll deal with it then. Django isn't terribly designed and going in and hacking multi-db and sharding in should take less than a week from a…
I was wondering exactly this last night and did some napkin calculations. Assuming the "10,000 writes" commonly claimed for SSD's is accurate, 5 year lifespan = 4.37 hours between writes on one page.
iTunes TV is insanely expensive, for instance I recently watched Heroes on Hulu (I had to borrow a few episodes when I fell behind because NBC "didn't want me watching" the show on a channel that made them money). Total…
Huh, I watch Hulu on my projector. I kind of thought that was the whole point?
I find the title highly sensational and misleading. Of course it was hacked in seconds given a prepared exploit, I would be shocked if it took the computer longer than that to execute the exploit code.
I don't understand why I would want C++ syntax when I could have python syntax for the same task? I checked and the python code for that matrix multiply is significantly shorter and arguably more readable, and that's…
It is better typography, though it's kind of obviously a iWeb template (not that there's anything wrong with that).
I've found the best answer to that is "I only do theoretical Computer Science." If you do it while other computer scientists are in hearing range the look on their face will be worth it.
I have to second this, of all the programming books I've read CTM comes closest to teaching me how to think in new ways as SICP once did. If you haven't read CTP yet, buy it now and make it your downtime reading.
