Oh yes, that makes sense. My apologies for misunderstanding your point. I would have thought that law-enforcement discharges were tracked as they are often fatal. If not at the federal level, then certainly the state level.

It would be difficult to track discharges in the USA. Tens of millions of Americans go hunting and skeet shooting, and go to firing ranges, etc. Unless the discharge is illegal and results in injury or property damage, it's not really an is

I think HN is a reasonable place for that.

They are the best programming and general technology questions and answers anywhere by far. Discussions are not tolerated, nor are open-ended questions, but if you need to know the most efficient way to do X in language Y, then look no fart

It's pretty simple really. The answer does not have to be right. Just talk your thought process through... how big is a golf ball... maybe 2 cubic inches. I wonder how many cubic inches are on a bus... how big is the bus? Well, it doesn't m

Not only will they be sued, but they'll no longer be able to accept credit cards. They'll most likely go out of business. It's a serious matter to be non-PCI compliant.

While I understand the reason for auto, and see the benefit in less typing, etc, I still do it the old-fashioned waytoo. I prefer be explicit.

They can't store the CVV2 either. Doing so, even encrypted, violates PCI-DSS.

The CVV2 is not recorded in the mag stripe.

You'd be surprised. I know several guys who pay regional sales manages 15% of net. No matter how much is sold, they get 15% every month. This encourages them to work hard and allows them to directly influence the income. And yes, if they se

What sort of hashes are those? Edit: Nevermind... they seem to be passwords, not hashes. They look randomish though. Likely computer generated.

They sometimes take on too much. They are very ambitious.

At least someone is innovating in search.

That's why I like C++ so much. It doesn't force OO down your throat. It lets you program using whatever style is best suited for the job.

That's nothing. I wouldn't worry about an app that uses 2.2% of one core while it's idle. It's no big deal.

Yep... I think in terms of, "How many bits do I need to store one of those things." ;)

Yes, now they charge governments a fee to read your data as now they have more of it. This is a joke. I hope most people realize that.

While it is an excellent service, tarsnap is not a replacement for Dropbox.

A loop is a loop. Math doesn't change much either. Nor does the concept of space and time, etc. It seems new and different to young people, but underneath, it's mostly the same as it was 40 years ago.

Yes, he'll need a non-technical person to teach him when to use then , and when to use than . Believe it or not, that's very important and they are different words with different meanings. Perhaps an English/PR major or a well-rounded MBA

There's a difference between an excuse and a reason. The author does not seem to understand that.

by 16s 15y ago
Knowing data structures separates the men from the boys. If you do not understand the difference between a tree (C++ std::set for example) or a hash table (std::unordered_set) you have placed yourself at a disadvantage. You can learn these

No it doesn't. JS runs automatically on my computer when I visit a website. By default our browsers execute it automatically. This is wrong. They do not ask for permission or check for signed code or offer any protection at all. JS infect

Many people don't understand the distinction between client-side and server-side. Javascript typically runs on your computer . I know that it seems to be out there on the Web, but it's not. It's running locally on your computer . It's usi

Many sites won't accept my passwords (SHA1_Pass). They say that they are too long or have inappropriate chars or that they are not complex enough. Here's an example of inappropriate chars: UTP+NnhabgHKx6 So I make a different password and t

Are they not still a private firm? Who is the due diligence owed to? I'm sure they've been watching this and mulling it over for quite some time and that the folks in charge approve. That's all they need to do.

I'd like to be able to use C++ in a purely functional manner rather than use Haskell, etc. Has anyone done that, if so, what was it like?

Use a weather rock. It's the most accurate weather prediction device. If it's wet, it's raining. If it's white, it's snowing. If it's not there, there's been a tornado. here's a photo of one: http://www.cookislands.org.uk/image/Tais%20weat
