I was baffled by the title, after some consideration I decided it was probably a metaphor relating to the diseased blankets given to native indians and that google was offering to help open source efforts while covertly killing them. After

He will be classified as a criminal when and if the courts convict him as one. Until then what he did is irrelevant to his tenure due to the concerns raised by potatolicious.

The analogy I like is that traditional currencies work in the same way, the money supply is the 10,000 coins and the central bank represents the 99 people and has the 1,000,000 coins. (In practice they have an infinite amount but whatever)

Could you explain your point to me please? I agree with the premise that the current situation is unstable but I am not sure what conclusions you are drawing. (Maybe something about the morality of the gambling industry?)

Not all testing is equal, it might be worth looking into the following concepts: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formative_assessment http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summative_assessment Standardised testing tends to be summative, if the teac

Well it's written by an SEO consultant, what's the money he has been called a "Snake oil salesman" at some point in the past?

From what I understand, in limited circumstances this can and does happen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piercing_the_corporate_veil But given that I am not a lawyer I have no idea if creating a LLC for the sole purpose of isolating a pate

I don't know much about the specifics of facebook apps, but could anyone outline the differences between facebook's approach to apps and google+'s?

I don't think drawing attention to the fact the comment wasn't short sighted, merely inane will gather much more sympathy for the poster.

I think there is a distinction between a platform's authors adding more functionality and the platform's users abusing existing functionality to make it do something it was never meant to. I would define the former as evolved and the latter

I assumed you would do the same thing as was done in the article. Create an interface and have a function that takes implementations of that interface as a parameter. The difference would be that in Java or C# you would need to explicitly m

When I was a student a lot of the houses I or my friends lived in had belkin routers/wifi access points. I don't think I encountered a single one that worked reliably, so I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you.

I assume every OS thread the go runtime is utilising is looking for an unblocked goroutine to execute and can't find any unblocked ones.

I am not sure how to read your question, go with goroutines does nothing that you can't do in C with p-threads because you could probably write something that would take go and output C. What go does is make some things easier, goroutines a

Maybe, however I read the original article to mean that the process some people use to make life decisions is the "following" stage in the context of shu ha ri. From what I can understand: It isn't possible to reach the second stage without

I believe that it's supposed to be read as Pre-Commerce is to Production as Derivatives are to a Hedge Funds. Although I could be wrong, as even considering that interpretation I am not sure what point the GP was trying to make.

I have heard it referred to as "Malicious compliance" but I haven't witnessed the concept referenced enough that I would expect a universal term for it.

Sort of, you can actually get away with invoking a function and not assigning its result at all I think assigning the error to _ is only necassary when you have multiple return values(one of which is the error) and you are interested in at

I usually see one on the front page every day or so (today there is two, often there are none). I admit I don't tend to read any further than that, so I could well be missing most of them.

It's worth noting that the original article has been upvoted to the front page. Also most of the comments in this thread that portray a blatantly sexist/ignorant attitude have elicited downvotes and replies espousing a saner position. I wou

I am not sure cards are a good example. In the UK at-least we had magnetic stripe and signature cards everywhere for years and years. When chip and pin was introduced all the merchants had to get chip and pin terminals and all card holders

Not relevant to the performance test but you can do this for index, value := range mySlice { } and you get the index and the value, or you can do for _, value := range mySlice { } If you only need the value.

I think it presents a clear conflict of interests if a solicitor is representing a client who was arrested by a close friend of said solicitor.

I may also be missing the point but what prevents you from putting a count method on an enumerable with a default implementation which does the same? In terms of .Count() which will attempt to call ICollection.Count you can create the same
