Given that much of Graphite's weakness is due to sliding sheets, I was under the impression a single sheet would be far stronger?

If we fast forward 20 years, I wonder if we could be a graphene 'sawing' diamond?

I've just noticed how my post could be misinterpreted. Shit.

SimCity 4 has it's share of bugs, even with mods like NAM/CAM/etc installed, but not normally to this extent.

As regards iOS Messages, it's possible. You just need a server to send/receive iMessages and interact with the App.net API. From my experience with http://irepl.im , I wrote an introduction to playing with iMessage: https://46b.it/blog/20

If that VM is isolated, you're fairly safe. Most people in practice run VMs on a Mac with various Sharing options enabled where files can be dropped to/from your Mac filesystem if the VM is breached. Given that a lot of people don't run AV

This isn't a show of force, it's just a show. Whilst those policemen are doing the arrests, all their children and half their neighbours are doing exactly the same without a care in the world.

Nice triple negative. I think there's an element of layoff about it, but comments from ex-Yahoos about lax work culture in remote employees might well mean it's the best thing to do. Especially when your management clearly can't work well w

If your app is Railsian and will have requests that take a few seconds to be served, I'd suggest AWS. If it's ultimately a simple CRUD app then Heroku should be fine until you're at significant scale - and this issue will never be as severe

Thanks for this codewright. I've consistently found that learning things others are afraid of is a good business decision - and I reckon this is a big one.

Several Rails apps I develop have been suffering from similar issues. Perhaps 2-3% of requests take 0.4-2s in just processing. If the allocation is a little intelligent, it'll not perform too badly and is less work than much harder optimiza

If you're purely interested in holding government accountable for their actions, I can see why you might write this. A lot of the open data released has been things that will benefit entities other than political campaign groups. Consider d

Most hackers aren't involved in government procurement and so assume that it will be done with extra care and attention, rather than the opposite for 10x the cost.

Send yourself 80 messages and it'll open again, then delete the conversation the File:/// is in.

No. It's being curious as to what you might be able to do with it. In my case, bricking Messages.app until they send themselves lots of messages.

How often do lost tourists ring your doorbell at night? After it's happened a few times even a statistician might wonder what was going on.

I expect some aspects of EU working law apply, which gives you a lot more protection than a simple contracting relationship.

Adolescent in what way?

by 46Bit 14y ago
Yes, although I don't think this is just a question of open access. It's a question of research verification - and expected of all published research.
