You already round to the nearest penny on your transactions, rounding to the nearest 5c isn't that much different. Especially when it only applies to cash transactions.

Really? I remember it topping out much higher than 50k. I remember maxing my download speed at 800k. Must've been a low slots/high queue server.

As someone who used to dabble in Hotline servers, you could make enough bank to pay for your internet with those "find this word" directions. Most people would do it if they really wanted the stuff on the server, or they could pay

D is excellent for metaprogramming and performance. D's static language is D.

Same question, but for Idris. I've found that Idris is quite easy to understand and looks similar to Agda.

Sounds nice, though I hope they keep support for more esoteric platforms. My only real choices on z/OS are vim, emacs, and the ISPF environment.

You don't have an explicit one, but they have an "excessive use of bandwidth" clause in the contract, which is similar to the early days of Rogers Cable.

Yes, every major ISP has bandwidth caps, some of which are prohibitively small (20GB). Even the smaller upstart ISPs, like TekSavvy are forced to have a cap (though at 300GB) due to wholesale laws. At least they offer unlimited for a reason

iWoz is also a decent recollection of those times. A very interesting read overall though focuses more on Woz than on Jobs.

This is very interesting and actually seemed like a fair comparison of the two languages. Say I wanted to write my own bittorrent client for fun and to learn a new language, is there a good guide on bittorrent I can read?

This is a decent guide for installing from source, which is itself, quite instructive. I just wish they included the make check lines as well, probably the best way to make sure things are going according to plan.

What if you just did var x = { ...}; var y = Object.create(x); Object.freeze(y); Object.preventExtension(y); Wouldn't that achieve the same effect?

You're not alone, I feel the same. I'm becoming increasingly hesitant to go to the US for a vacation, despite there being some places I really want to visit. I've even turned down two very good job offers in the US. My other

The lack of generated assembly shown makes this explanation just as likely.

Netflix should be fine, they've already implemented Canada mode, where they stream super-low bandwidth versions. Because while 300GB may seem small for you, in Canada we have to deal with bullshit like 80GB caps on 35Mbps internet for

The killer app for me was the built-in FM transmitter. Yes that's right, transmitter. I could change the user agent, then listen to rdio in my old car with no tape deck. Plus the overclocking, the bash prompt, it goes on and on. It was

Just saying that JS has a good debugger (it isn't that good, really) isn't nearly enough to counteract the original points about terrible exception handling. Exception handling isn't just about fixing errors, it's about

In iOS5, css transforms worked great, a bug was introduced in iOS6 crippling the performance, it still hasn't been fixed in iOS7. I'm not comparing to Android, I'm just saying that a huge mobile market is basically unavailabl

I wonder if the SIMD part of this could be integrated into D's compile time regex support. Would be neat to see.
