Looks interesting (great partners!). However, I can't discover what exactly what we will be hacking on (I must note that I'm on IE8). Is any further information available?

Irradiation causes the copper itself to become radioactive. The copper atoms get hit by the radiation which causes some of them to change in radioactive isotopes.

Given the question asked, it's a reasonably fair swipe, though. I don't think there is much to argue against: Vaccination and eradication of diseases has a more direct effect than access to broadband on health. The secondary effec

Customers and law may demand that the data is stored in the EU. For businesses with demands hosting in the US is simply not an option. This was a concern earlier but my guess is that this will only increase in the near future.

Why is this information stored in a cookie the client has access to? Why doesn't ROR have a shared secret so the information can be stored on the server like, for example, PHP does?

I believe the point is to not use any HTML on both sides. The docs pajama.js (pjs) is a serverside and clientside templating engine... GitHub only has the first commit so I don't think it is production ready but I find the ide

I'm not sure. What we do know is that their most profitable enterprise ceases to exist. Less profit means less money to spend on weapons, bribes and hiring goons. Sounds good to me!

Great analysis, indeed. I miss one thing though: what was causing the incomplete printing of 'Testing' in the loop?

You could call it SPQR, for something like Super pretty quick R if you want to. I'd say not calling it SPQR is an opportunity missed anyway.

The website states that epub and mobi will be available soon. I assume that it will be made available to early buyers.

Can someone share experience about using Numba in practice? I'm interested in use cases and the performance gain achieved. I guess that once you have compiled the code the application will be rock solid, is this correct?

I can't downvote and, in this case, wouldn't do so even if I could. I respect your opinion and I fully agree with you that in the relation with his wife Einstein was no saint. However, I do not think it is relevant and the quote is also not

On the subject of relativity I can recommend the "ABC of Relativity" by Bertrand Russell. After reading I can't say I really grok relativity but I can at least give a decent explanation. Unfortunately I can not find a free version of this o

What is your quarrel with Einstein? You're not adding much to the conversation in this way.

I never really mingled with the worst of them but this not something that many students do. Drinking in the weekends and on weekdays sure but regularly getting a delirium tremens (if that's what you mean with DT) made me sit up in my chair.

I hope not, I hope that anyone that googles her is as outraged as we are and won't hold it against her. If she is interviewed by right minded people it might even be a nice thing to talk about.

I can't imagine that US students drink significantly more than the average Dutch student. Maybe more but not something like 20% more. Edit: what I meant: students drinking much seems to be universal. Pretty sure that German and Belgium stud

That seem to some very serious charges and also a bit far fetched. I mean: running the Pirate Bay and doing very complicated hacks against high profile targets is a lot of work...

People on Twitter, which of course is full of speculation, hint that it may be an attack.
