I find it silly to try and disprove idiots who think some bogus alternative medicine works. Let the evolution take its course and weed out the morons.

At least computational physics and chemistry has practical applications. History - not so much. Our society doesn't need so many history graduates. History should be a hobby, not something a million kids each year dedicate their life t

As long as they can squeeze more than $4.7B out of RIM, it doesn't matter if it's a dying brand (which it is).

It doesn't matter. Developers almost never develop/test in an environment that mimics production - multiple load balancers, multiple app servers, multiple database servers, failover to a second data center, etc. If your dev enviro

Is that the only place in the country that employs? At her age she shouldn't even be working. What has she been doing for over 60 years? Where is her social security, 401k/IRA, savings?

OK, if I never need to write insanely slow object oriented code for no good reason, I will download your "library".

by rorrr2 13y ago
So your code is 45.7 times slower. HAHAHAHA.

I think converting numbers to objects and back is ugly. And insanely inefficient. For this particular example it must be orders of magnitude slower.

by rorrr2 13y ago
Why would you do this for numbers? How is $number = new Number(6.9); echo $number->ceiling() // 7 ->max(array(5, 9, 49.1)) // 49.1 ->floor() /&#

Show us the numbers. I'd expect an order of magnitude slower for most of string and number operations.

Oh, I absolutely agree that the US healthcare system is absolute shit, but there are ways around it. She should have planned for it long before 83. I started planning my finances for retirement at 25. She should've been eligible for Me

I would do private tutoring. I bet it pays much better too. Considering she worked very relaxing hours, she could spend 10 hours a week searching for new clients.

You actually don't have to minimize it, that's why it's on the right hand side. You can copy/paste directly, even dragging text with a mouse.

That's not true. The lady worked part time. Most dish washers work full or longer time work shifts. The academia pays alright, you just have to do the hours. She didn't.

US has social safety nets, she just didn't bother to use them. She didn't bother to pay for health insurance. She didn't bother to finance her IRA/401k. She didn't bother to find a full time job with health insuranc

And in Sudan she would be a child soldier or a rape toy. What does this have to do with what actually happened? Living in the US without health insurance is a ticking financial and health bomb. Even I, as an immigrant, knew that. That'

$10K/year is equivalent to $5/hour full time. Even a complete moron with no education can make more money doing cleaning, washing dishes, delivery, etc. And that lady was not a complete moron, she was teaching.

I agree with many points, except the smaller compose window. 1) It's done so you can search your email while typing a reply, maybe find some info and copy/paste it. It's extremely useful. 2) You don't tons of horizonta

Why didn't she get a full time job? I can't see how the school is responsible for her horrible career and long term financial planning. If you're making $10,000/year is the US, while having an education, it's your o

What I see is iPhone (red) had no effect on RIM's share. But once Android appeared, RIM's share melted to nothing.

If we want a 60Hz app, the touch latency + processing + display shouldn't exceed 16.7ms. 1ms touch latency would be nice indeed, but I think 5-8ms would work just as well on most devices.

1) How do you do that? His random generator is not even controlled by him, it's a bunch of open source browsers. 2) That's basically bruteforcing. Considering he is running pbkdf2 thousands of times, good luck with that. You might

They still have their chances with Android. All they have to do is make the best damn Android devices. Considering they have money, they can do it. Other than that, nothing short of miraculous futuretech invention-acquisition will save them
