Wow, well that's certainly the wrong way to address the problem.

This depends entirely on which compiler you're using. Saying that these are mistakes "the compiler" won't catch is disingenuous. While VSC++2005 didn't catch these, I know that xlC on AIX will catch all of these except the integer divide "b

Wow, haven't played this since the CS lounge 7 years ago. We used to play all sorts of chess variations just to see how they'd work out. One of the most fun for us was reverse chess. First person with 0 pieces wins, and if you can take a pi

Got any sources for that? I'm interested in reading that research. Couple anecdotes: I work in a semi rural neighborhood that's 2km from a regional airport (a bit off to the side of the approach path). I work right next to a window and have

At 70PNLdB, I doubt anyone in their car could hear it. In fact pretty much only rural quiet areas will hear it. Though I'm sure there's going to be some "concerned citizens" that claim that the sonic booms are causing their children migrain

Leaking is a harder problem, I don't see any way around it other than using hot air or having some sort of autonomous in-flight refueling. As for the wind, I vote that it shouldn't matter, as long as it doesn't get stuck in a downdraft that

Didn't know that, that's pretty awesome.

While I agree that there's a bit more to it, let me see if I can rebuff a few of your points. 1. Yes, a typical weather balloon will do that, but it's possible to make a balloon reach neutral buoyancy at a specific altitude see:zeplin. 2. W

Isn't this essentially the Star Trek economy? These people work to improve themselves and their surroundings.

This is really nice, but I wish there was a way I could add more locations to explore. I'd love to do this to my own city. I've tried exploring and hacking in my own links, but it's pretty obvious that the data was only preprocessed for the

This article was pretty good run, it's like using Haskell inside C++. Not exactly real-world useful, except in very limited scenarios, but still an interesting read.

This is actually very similar to a method of doing tessellated origami with a grid of folds. [1] I wish I could find a picture of it, but I've got an origami tessellation I folded that has this same 1 degree of freedom that allows it to be

There's far more to it than I originally thought. Using epsilon = 0.00001f had been working fine for me, but now I see just how wrong that could've been in certain cases. Definitely keeping this around for reference.

I got one of those recently, they said they were from "Visa Mastercard", they fell apart pretty quickly when I asked which one they were from.

Sort of. As of right now executable code is only allowed in the lower 2GB, but data is allowed anywhere. "Below the bar" I think is the term.

Much in the same way the Poul Anderson story "Sam Hall" progressed. "Sam Hall" originally started as an fake record entry, but then slowly people in a rebellion started to use his name as a symbol. The decentralized nature of Anonymous lend

Well that certainly sounds reasonable. Maybe I'm just being overly cynical, but I'm wondering if there's a catch to this.

Which if you look at the sorting visualization links at the bottom, is actually a really effective way of showing when things are very out of order, or close to in order.
