The newer, lighter planes are using a lot of plastic and are worse at isolating passengers and crew from the radiation at high altitudes.

With the huge R&D investments of DAPRA&Co they need fewer and fewer people to operate. It's not a problem to find a few dozens of loyal people ready to kill kids and whoever else tries to disobey the orders.

Let me tell you how useful an automatic weapon is against a swarm of drones: not useful at all. Those drones are very similar to the laptops and tablets we use everyday and can be mass produced in millions on the Pentagon/Occupation&#x

Of course they are. Hopefully next time the police and the FBI will do their job properly: after killing 20 or 30 terrorists the rest will get to know their place.

Because nerd's will inevitably outcompete suits in a perfectly fair environment. So it makes sense to work towards one.

How about: 1. Use your technical skills to built something of value. 2. Use a small part of the inevitable monetary reward to pay Dropbox.

Well there are two types of young nerds - those who use open source and those who use cracked commercial software. It's only natural that the first type doesn't usually end employed by MS.

8 core Xeon would be good at video rendering, but as of now for VS and R# you need single threaded performance, where a 3.9GHz Haswell shines.

VS is not there to make money directly, but to sell MS platforms - Windows, SQL Server, etc. They give it away for free to students, startups and pretty much anybody who asks. The only reason all editions are not free is to not kill the oth

Are you serious? That's a medium size project, just get a fast machine (e.g. i7 4770) and you'll be perfectly fine.

Nope, where did I say that anything about making new laws? It want matter much anyway as the really rich people and privately hold companies don't keep the majority of their money in own bank accounts.

Yes, these are real problems, but how is redirecting to the home page helping in any way? When the user navigates back to the page she wanted the in-secure script will still be fetched. A MITM is still able to serve a copy of your page.

Nooo, don't erase the address that took me 5 minutes to type. What you say doesn't make any sense. You should obviously configure the https redirect as a site wide setting and not per page.

Being confrontational is very often a great strategy, especially in front of a dumb crowd (luckily the Eternal September is yet to happen in full force here).

Yeap, the advice here is that you should use `pull --rebase` instead of `pull`. What that does is it eliminates the merge commit to the "central" branch (e.g. on github). That is it fakes the history to look as if you started to work on a b

Ufff, I must be doing something very wrong. Once in a while rebase continue will just fail with cryptic error messages and nothing but a hard reset will let me continue using the repository. Never had a problem with regular git pull.

IMHO you're over simplifying. Oracle was better positioned to capitalize on Sun assets, so they were likely to pay more than Google. Microsoft or Apple may have decided to bid to prevent Google from acquisition. Merging with a huge enterpri

There was async stuff in 1.0, but the really good stuff came with version 4.0 and 4.5. The Task Parallel Library is a very nice implementation of the Promise/Future pattern, that came from the functional programming world.
