Very addictive! Reminds me almost of a reversed minesweeper.

Haha I remember that southpark episode. I think relying on cameras and law to stop vandalism and theft is a little naive though. Perhaps you've never owned a motorbike but being an owner of one I can tell you it happens much more often

I'm still not convinced by delivery by drone. There's many problems that have yet to be solved, some have obvious solutions that are still none trivial to implement - others at least in my mind are very much an issue. So far as no

This is great. Something that I'm sure I and many other developers suffer from when it comes to projects at home is "it's not done yet" syndrome, usually to the point where it's never done and gets abandoned. I thin

Bit of a strawman on googling for results - sure I'm not suggesting you can hide the fact it's a relative of C, but I know when I first started out every question I would ask the almighty google oracle would be appended with &quot

References in my opinion should actually be called "Address of" operators, then it's much easier for someone new to see why pointers and references exist together. Printf and the cstdlib - eh yeah I'll hand you that, if

Is it just me or are these bounties really low. Unless I'm misunderstanding identification bypass could be incredibly damaging for the company and their customers, but it's only got a $3000 reward? In my personal opinion you want

Of course - the war on drugs itself is a failure and the morals and reasoning behind it is suspect at best, if not downright wrong. And you only have to look at Russia to see what happens when supply completely dwindles to addicts of hard d

You must take the harm that these drugs can cause into consideration when you say that you want to legalize them all - it is unfortunately not that black and white. Heroine is a prime example. Whilst the argument could be given for "Ed

Doesn't work on Firefox 30.0 on Ubuntu. Blink worked though.

If this is interesting to you, another topic to look into is corewars evolvers. A very similar concept, and the results from the programs that are generated are pretty amazing. http://www.corewar.co.uk/thorsell/paper.ht

Ah I didn't think of the OS, that's a good point!

I don't think there's many situations where you'd have to abbreviate Firefox anyway, it's not a large word to begin with. Internet Explorer as IE I can understand, it's large and compounding it is useful - but we do

There is some interesting behaviour so far as cat communication with humans. Cats will not meow to other cats unless it's a kitten / mother situation. Meowing with humans is pretty unique. http://en.wikipedia.org/w

I think this is a good point. F.E.A.R did this amazingly well in the first instalment, and the way that the enemies worked with cohesive group strategies was pretty ground breaking for the time. I think this title could benefit from somethi

I've been on the alternative last.fm beta streaming player for a while. The alternative is using their recommendations and scrobbler for youtube hosted content. This version is not shutting down. It could use a little curation, but ove

I can kind of see it, touring on my motorbike I'd use one of these for charging whilst camping. Unfortunately I just can't justify that price tag.

Yes, here in the UK we have adverts before the movie, and messages that say "You may not record with any device", or something to that effect.

Possibly, although I have never been given a WPS enabled device from an ISP, nor have any of my family ( have to love being tech support ). Come to think of it though I have seen routers in the past with what can only be randomly generated

by Derpdiherp 13y ago
Interesting, but it still relies on the default username and password on the router. I think this points at a glaring hole in router security, why aren't password and username changes forced on the first bootup of the device? Having th

Programmer art at it's finest. I think the idea is functionality over presentation though, just look at the sites most GNU projects are hosted on.

This gives me an interesting thought, in the story all lower levels of the simulation are identical copies from the top level, in every way. The first time that they create the black ball the top level universe will diverge from the rest (t

Useful article. But the background of the blog flickers rather badly, it's pretty migraine inducing.

I use Steam on Debian stable and it works absolutely fine, I've never had an issue with it. The games run great too.

Didn't they say the same thing about iMacs? Can't comment though, I personally don't run an AV on linux.

Best of it is - less tech-savvy criminals that didn't know about the possibility of printing gun parts before in the UK? Will sure as hell know about doing it now. Nice work BBC and the old bill.

Indeed, back when I used to develop on a Windows box I swore by f.lux. I was very disappointed when I discovered the state of their Linux version after making the switch. Redshift is definitely the best alternative.

Completely agreed - working in areas that I do char* style strings are still commonplace, and that does make you appreciate boost or std::string a great deal more. But it does not hold a candle to the ease of string manipulation in a lot of

for(const auto &i : data) { ofile << i << std::endl; } The for loop definition there with the auto keyword. The rest has been standard for donkeys years.

It's proportional to the size and complexity of the code base really. Precompiled headers help.
