Yes, I felt those too. Thought it was only me. His idea of future scares me.

I keep hearing people talk about this Ender's Game book. Should I buy one to read? It's gonna be a hard endeavour since I will have to import it (can take up to 2 months to arrive), so is it worthwhile?

I wish I could save this thread for future reference when buying books, like I do in reddit.

I knew those already. Studied those as curiosity on Algebra class. Up to 11, but there are rules for up to 17, as far as I know. By the way, took me three seconds to figure it was divisible by 7, using multiplication properties.

Sorry, dude. I will also downmod you. It has nothing to do with your political opinion. It has to do with the fact that it is political. Wanna post about politics, go to reddit. I'd like this place be clean of it myself, and I will use the

1, You're not screwing anything up. You're creating some new product from scratch, and resources spent learning a new tool will be resources saved in future projects that use the same tool. 2, And old releases have bugs that will hardly be

But if you don't sit down to learn, you will never learn. You will fall into a chicken - egg trap. You will not use a new tool because you don't know if it is any better, and you will not know if it is any better because you did not use it.

No, it doesn't. It gives me a rush for less than five minutes and then I am back to the lower levels. Sleep works much better, but not the night one. Sleeping midday for less than an hour works way way better than caffeine. Shame my boss wo

I read the captcha on GMail is the safest around and it is impossible to break. One that does it would really put the captcha test to dust.

Ok, let's see if I got it right. He wrote a program that could pick pieces of other programs after testing to find the "fittest" and made new ones until he found one that worked "correctly"? Was it?

Everyone heard of that project that was dubbed "TeslaNet", right? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wardenclyffe_Tower I wonder what would the world be like if that had been successful.

5.5 hours, out of necessity. I usually oversleep during the weekends. It is a poor compensation, but it is what I can do.

Ok, call me stupid. I am a coder, not an accountant. Besides, I am Brazilian so I don't even know how american economy works exactly. Can someone explain what's this fuss is all about in good layman terms?

I think I learned more about music on this thread than by listening to radio on the last year. I will try some of the artists mentioned here later on. I usually listen to internet radio. Music doesn't really bother me, but silence does. Sil
