That sounds like a Depth-First-Search[1] (which wasn't included exactly). In DFS you'll go all the way out one way, until you reach the end, and then go back to when you last had a choice, and go out a new way, etc (a bit like the

.... this is simply lame, the master/slave term describes perfectly fine the relationship between the parts, and leader/follower is a bit more vague, since a follower is during it voluntarily, while the slave adheres to the master

I have friend that once intervened between two drunk women fighting on the bus. What he got out of it was that both turned on him, and threw stuff at him. Nobody else on the bus turned to help him, but he managed to get the women off the bu

I don't really intend to risk my life going up against a knife-wielding crazy person, just so you'd be able to keep your phone. I would probably call the police though, which was also my reaction last a bigger fight happened near

I like food, but sometimes it can be time consuming and I only do it to satisfy my hunger or lack of energy. If I had energy for everything, I would love to cook and eat, but more often than not, I simply want to prioritise my energy and es

If you're saying that the students in the other countries get a better understanding of the material, they would then also be better at taking the test. So, the whole base of your arguments falls, since you compared the way they teach

Not an American, so don't know much about your school system tbh, but what is bad about these tests? The benefits of them (I guess), is that you can collect data on how kids are doing around various parts of the country, and maybe look

That's actually one of the reasons I like it. Instead of allowing your application to live in a half-working state, you're required to fix such things. While it might not be as instantly gratifying and being able to refresh and se

I can recommend VIM with Syntastic[0] and vim2hs[1]. You'd probably also want Vundle to manage plugins though. What I get from that is my code is checked for style/compile errors everytime I save with ghc-mod and hlint. There&#x27

I definitely also see the appeal of not having to install anything :) Could just imagine it'd become quite bothersome having to reactivate it repeatedly.

Instead of having to click the bookmark, why not present it as a plugin instead? Allowing for it to be automized.... Just a suggestion.

You can criticize the article about no making any proposals itself, but I don't think that's the point of the article. I think the following bit, talking about the effect of such events as "The Day We Fight Back", sums i

Impressive speeds. You usually don't see anything over 100 Mb/s here in Denmark.

by Tehnix 13y ago
I think you meant Mb with a small b. I guess they would, but this is a matter of providing that speed. I don't think 128+ Mb/s is very common, usually caps around 100 Mb/s in a lot of areas.

so, you have like a 128 Mb/s connection or something?..
