For now, you need to add both -Wno-return-type and -m32 when compiling.

Or you could text them directly. This scenario is only useful in the case where you have SMS but no internet, and your intended recipient has internet but no SMS. EDIT: Also, as someone pointed out above, Twitter already has an SMS interfac

That's the point. larrys wants to compare the Model S miles driven by "people who buy brand new expensive cars" against other car miles driven by "people who buy brand new expensive cars," instead of comparing the M

Nice job! Little bit of feedback: 1. The images don't update until after the first tick of the new exercise. It would be nice if the updated when the rest screen changes to the new exercise screen with the timer and the text. 2. It would be

That's an excellent explanation of what's actually going on in this situation. Thank you.

I had issues with the '-' character (for example, in the first line of the Shell Git lesson), and I'm just using the standard US keyboard layout. EDIT: also '_', as sp332 commented. Firefox on OS X.

What's the reason this isn't compatible with the iPhone 4/other devices? Also, trying to open the preferences (10.6.8) takes 20-30 seconds of beach ball frozen before the window comes up (and 5-10 to close as well, without changing anything

Indeed I was. That was in the shortcut when I originally looked at it. He has since edited it out. Thanks!

Ah, thanks for the correction. Knowing that, this doesn't really matter, but "git lg -10" produces no output at all for me.

Is there a way to limit this to the most recent N (either hard-coded or as an input) entries? It's a bit slow to load when it has to load all of the history ever, and I usually only care about at most the last couple dozen commits.

This is the best example I've seen. We've spent the last 20+ years training the public that ".com", ".net", etc equals "website". Now that anything could be a URL, it's going to be a lot more confusing for people.

Did you check the actual numbers on that? I was impressed with the speeds I was getting, and figured it must be because they were using a P2P mechanism, but when I looked at the download statistics (in the downloader, there's an option to s

Best of luck to the whole team there. It's such a great tool, and seamlessly pulled off. I'll be sad to see it go, and I'll be crossing my fingers in the hopes that it will work with future OS releases for a while.

What the article hints at, but doesn't really follow through on, is that you could use this to fire off multiple AJAX calls in parallel and the do something only when all of them have completed.

Thanks for a great tool. A suggestion: I'd like to be able to send a letter to all of my representatives and senators at once, instead of having to fill out the form multiple times.

The one issue this article doesn't address is what is being done about the FRA. Are there movements to change the regulations? Overhaul the FRA? Even something as small scale as what, if anything, the author is trying to do about it would h

1) No, and I would have been incredibly surprised if they had. I had only finished two years of school, and had very little experience when I started. None of us had any idea how it would work out. It would have been foolish to offer equity

I never really applied to the larger companies. It seemed like most of the really cool opportunities there were full-time positions only. My friends that had done internships at bigger companies hadn't enjoyed it very much, so I was looking

Thanks for the high praise, Rich. If anyone's got questions about the experience, I'd be happy to share. Short version: freaking awesome!

It's convincing, until you realize that the author is treating nukes as just really big bombs. If he's only looking at the area of total destruction, then he should be counting all explosives, since that's ignoring where the real deadliness

I had some friends that made OLEDs in a MatSci lab last year. It was an incredibly complicated and drawn-out process, not to mention sensitive and nit-picky. Sure, automation would most of the problems, but I don't envy the people who have

There's a very good game theory problem in here somewhere. How many bots can be run before the advertisers get fed up and stop donating? Somebody needs to make a model to find what the optimal bot rate is that gets lots of rice donated with
