I actually reserved my most creative names for Mages. I am not sure why. Some left over love from my Diablo 2 mage? I would always just pick hard to obtain names on other characters. A use case for this data is creating a game and reserving

My SSD died. Much like a USB drive, when it died, I could still read from it. Just made a direct ghost of it onto another SSD. Was up and running in less than 15 minutes.

All they had were my vehicles. They also think I'm a 72 year old African American. Nothing on my home, shopping, etc.

This is considered a benchmark and comparison? Edit: Ok, rather than being an arse, some feedback: The IOWait tidbit was interesting and worth the click on its own. Build times and bandwidth should vary based on usage on the shared host. Ru

Brandyn, I ended up shipping my Glass back last week. I wish your team and you the best of luck. As I have said, I am not sure Google Glass is the correct vessel for my apps, but you guys are really onto something. If they happen to send me

My biggest potential profit was during the American Idol reign of terror. At the time, the keyword in Adwords was 1/cent a click. You read that right. Literally, 200,000 impressions/minute with a click-through rate of 1.3%. Nearly

We are using Ingres Databases from the early 90s or late 80s. We have tens of billions of rows. List of missing things: EVERYTHING. Primary/Foreign key relationships are buggy, therefore, not used. Views are somewhat available. Joins a

My biggest fragmentation issues have been the result of hardware differences. Carriers pick and choose which permissions are allowed/denied. An example, only ATNT denies access to AlarmManager. This means you cannot set or change the a

I find Big-O is mostly applicable to SQL queries. A hard drive/memory bottleneck exists in all database queries. Programmers will easily ignore bad SQL and chalk it up to 'database bottleneck etc'. The truth usually goes alon

Startups are much different than these toss it up to die schemes. They worry about design, presentation, correctness, speed, etc. I cannot name the online system we use, but I am willing to say that page load times average 15-30 seconds. Th

I was with my CIO the other day. He turned on his monitor and said 'look, is this what you want to really do?' Spreadsheets on time management, project management, and convincing his fellow Chiefs that he was on the right track. H

When I first learned Java in school, I cranked out a couple of Android apps. I coded one in 30 minutes. It currently has 24k active installs with a total of 125k people trying it out. Free. Horrible programming. No unit tests led to a scena

This number is really easy to pull of if you know how to sell yourself and be social/on the offensive. $150/month product that saves businesses $4,000/mo (one less programmer). Hard part: Find 70 clients. Working in industry,

According to my university's accommodation services, sleep disorders do not fall under the scope of these type of service accommodations. I took in sleep studies, health records, etc. I wanted to have exams proctored at 7PM-9PM. My log

You are correct. Interest was not factored in. 5-10 year investments with loan options are also a great alternative. 40,000 was mainly a number based around family, mortgage, food, transportation, classes, hazard/maintenance(car/h

I would feel secure at 600,000 post-tax for a 15 year adventure into research for bioinformatics, analytics, and embedded design. During this 15 year break, I could easily notch away at the big circle of knowledge, generate side income, wri

Agreed. Work restricts youtube/vimeo 80% of the time. Next, we use Pentium D computers for programming. Finally, looks great. I wish more people would use gifs rather than videos. If you can convey your message without audio, cheers to

I can really appreciate this opinion of my comment. It is truly genuine and a great analysis! There is much more truth to your words than I would like to admit in other facets of my life. Their priority is indeed far from mine. Many times,

Growing up in Hattiesburg, MS, innovation was stagnant. There were no technology related jobs other than Tech Support at Comcast(who I regarded as pure evil at the time). People do not want to leave Hattiesburg. It is completely foreign to

At this point, without voiding my warranty, I can basically poll data, reflect data through options, and use voice commands (that barely understand me) to reflect data. I have seen interesting manipulation of the Mirror API to make voice co

Saab utilizes this through Tech2. Just to turn the Aux Out component on my stereo would cost $150-300. Disable the Alarm system beep? $150-300. Disable the airbag warning? $150-300. Replace the stereo? $150-300. Disable daytime running head

First option: Drive downtown and write down every business you see. I would imagine 99% of them need technology, 75% of them have some form of technology, and 50% of them are using legacy software. Call them. Something is running at O(n^5)
