if you multi-click the timeline, the current time will change to NaN:NaN. And why can't you change the current playing position?

what about noise? Audio noise. If it works, this is the next feature I'm interested in. For example, I have an HP laptop, and the charger is noisy.

if you have some cheap speakers, set hardware volume somewhere over 50% and then never touch it. Use the software volume. That's because the hardware volume button will almost certainly break (mine were Logitech).

I always wondered why would you send a probe around a planet... It seemed dumb. But it seems that the probe would steal some energy from the planet's speed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_assist

about NDA: I've worked with a friend on an idea. It was my idea. Because of the way he worked I decided I don't want to continue on that project. He continued anyway. The funny thing is that even though I told him all the details of my idea

from my own experience, yes it does. The way it worked for me was that I was ready to take more risky or uncomfortable decisions. But from reading your post I sense that you don't really want to do this (who wants to be desperate? nobody):

people complain about artificial inflation, when states print money for no reason, while this article talks about inflation generated by real economic facts (like a bad year in agriculture). So yes, if you ignore half of reality, you are ri

I just want to point out that yes, there is a big difference between airtime and actual money. When I buy credit for my pre-paid card, if I want 5 euros credit, I will pay 5 euros + VAT. But because people pay in our local currency, most of

Yes. I was thinking at some similar service. With a bank (regulations), you go there, make a deposit for $10 and you will have $10 in your account. With a mobile operator (no bank regulations) if you give them $10 for anything (like pre-pai

I think he means sad in the sense that this should not be in application code. It should be in PHP interpreter. Fixing the interpreter in application code. Sad.

It seems to me that the problem is in all kinds of code that relies on time to do some critical operation when it really should not. Time is for people. Computers should use a separate "time", that only moves forward. A numbered pulse.

I would tax buildings-activities for congestion. If you rent a building for residential use: no tax. If you rent it to be used as a Shopping Center: big tax. If on top of that, they don't have a big parking space: huge tax.
