   I'm going to guess that he doesn't know anything about web sites, that his website was created by some student long ago, and nobody knows where that student is or what the account password is any more.

   What you are asking them to do is legal suicide. If they were to claim this was their fault, they would be immediately slapped with multi-million dollar lawsuits from everybody who ever had a problem with auto pilot. It would end the compan

   Also, Tesla can mistakenly think you aren't holding the wheel when you are. Happens to me all the time. Regardless of the criticism of Tesla here, surely the driver wasn't watching the road, or otherwise this wouldn't have ha

   We already have this. Just use C++ and stay away from the features you don't want. If you want to enforce specific restrictions then start an effort to provide a formal C++ feature restriction specification.

    Good luck getting any serious technical support with Qt. At least with HTML5 there's a huge amount of users and technical resources. I was never able to get answers to any technical questions that weren't trivial.

    I don't think put a fake progress bar in shareware I wrote 25 years ago. And even then it was as a joke about other software's obviously fake progress bars.

    freetype and harfbuzz don't draw text. Freetype reads font files and gives you individual glyphs, and harfbuzz does "shaping". Pango does layout but also doesn't draw text.

    Wasn't Stockfish gimped for this competition? No openings, no endgame tables, low RAM, etc? If that's so then this AI did not in fact beat the computer chess champ.

    This is the correct explanation. The journalist misunderstood something he said to mean he discovered Fourier transforms at that later time.

    The way my Tesla auto drives, traffic jams would be worse. It's slow to respond to speedups and keeps too far a distance, even at its lowest setting.

    Your criticism seems a bit overboard. You are making assumptions about things you don't know about, and are judging personal choice floating point representation.

    There needs to be one about scar tissue. Programmers tend to fear doing anything that they feel burned them in the past.
