Thank you! I will need the entire client code though. Let's switch to email - the one you logged on with is OK, right? EDIT: sent.

Thanks, Web64. What was the issue? Any error messages or you just didn't get the output you wanted? I imagine you're interested in Norwegian? EDIT: I forgot to mention that you don't need to code to test-drive. You can simply

It could be possible theoretically if not the context of the article. "We are asked to imagine" and so on. But even if it were the case, the fact that the same idea was commonplace in the USSR means that it's not inherently c

I absolutely agree. Plus, the meaningfulness of the task sometimes is beyond economic; many people code in crazy hours because they love the job. I doubt it was the same with miners 500 years ago. But all these nuances aren't even look

It's wonderful that there is someone with mind as unclouded by propaganda to enlighten me and improve my limited world view. Did you find any figures or arguments in the original paper that I overlooked? Like, Chinese peasants, German

Ugh. The paper reeks of political agenda. The very first sentence is: > One of capitalism's most durable myths is that it has reduced human toil. What about the Communism? Why would they spread this durable myth? Because I remembe

It depends on the kind of panspermia. If it's about generic organic molecules then the DNA is a local construct. If it's about microorganisms, then it's different.

Sounds like a part publicity (NYT was invited), part employment fair for the Bezos' ventures. He can talk to the candidates, observe how they behave, and at the same time intrigue them with the prospects of working for him. Amazingly,

In addition to that, even if we were limited to the "last moment", there was about half a second or a second time to react. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that should be enough for the car to at least try something. Isn't

And today they circulate articles bragging with the number of supercomputers. It's the same as publicly listed companies increase headcount to look like they are thriving ("X is profitable and hiring"). Microsoft, for example

Agree, and given the standard "liquidity preference", the founders are likely to net $0, except for the Google bonuses for the engineering (Jack Barker-like Rosenthal is not likely to stick there). It's sad, really. It's

Unfortunately, very plausible. It's ridiculous how much neat stuff is buried by corporate lawyers "mitigating" a danger as probable as a meteorite strike.

That sounds plausible but they do collaborate with the .NET open-sourcing efforts, that could be an opportunity for them to test new waters.

I remember early reports about self-driving experiments saying that some of the issues where because the cars were driving at the speed limit, which is usually not the case in the US with the human drivers. Maybe they decided to change it.

Concerning another dead mobile OS, I never understood why Microsoft did not try to spin off or open-source their mobile effort. In fact, the rationale for killing it seems an example of corporate waste: it had user base in double-digits in

I wonder how many people can pinpoint where the boundary between the two communities lies. What does this division help to achieve? The two communities are in exactly the same format.

OK, thank you. For these guys the blogging seems nearly a full-time job though. I wonder if it's realistic to get there with a small slice of time.

I do hope that Stack Overflow will become usable again. In my opinion, the problem is mostly the answerers. I went all the way from a simple coder to management, and now I'm doing both, running my second startup. I talk to people of di
