A lot of people are missing the point, debating whether this was reasonable or not. Mark got away with telling Congress ~"we don't share with third parties" and now they're saying Blackberry's not a third party. If

The last one with the truck does count, I agree. If it enables inattentiveness, it's likely to cause harm. The Skoda driver makes less sense: if you are trying (like he was) to stop, brakes should always outpower the engine. Unless t

Insurance rates will probably go up on "self-crashing cars" if this trend continues. For some reason, people aren't dying so dramatically due to cruise control. I love cruise control, because it helps me focus on "drivi

I thought Travis really did want to use the limo(s) himself. Wasn't shared access to high-end limos the original idea? And didn't the Airbnb founders put the literal Ur-airbed in their own house? I think you are right that there

> shorthand for a function with only a pattern as its body. Only an expression as its body seems more like it. Just to be clear, would you require the last function clause to be a catch-all/wildcard pattern? Or could you just def

Well, you'd be wrong by a mile! On my machine, the .map(..) way is almost twice as slow. It ain't even close. But you're right, I failed to consider that it's "probably optimized". And "C++". &#x2F

A thought occurred to me the other day. What if it's not so good to "be one with the bicycle" ? What I mean is, I feel the narrator identifies too strongly with the machine. The frustrations of the machine translate direct

Why $500? Mac Pros do not, strictly speaking, require the official stock "Mac Pro ATI Radeon &c &c" with the mounting bracket and everything. I had a HD4870 running strong until a couple months ago it died. I replaced it

Look for weaknesses you have as "a developer" (or whatever you want to be). Focus on them. Work at them until you get better, or at least more comfortable. Find new "muscles", skills, what have you and push them. It&

What would that look like, code-wise? Is there a good library for this stuff? It's easy to reach for complex numbers when they're built-in. Do you have to use Maple/Mathematica for this stuff, or can you do it easily in Pyth

I run a Mac Pro 5,1 (2010). It's a fantastic piece of hardware and I doubt we'll see anything quite like it anytime soon. It's ancient in a sense, but it's very fast and it runs OS X 10.12. I wanted the pre-2013 model

I'm excited, skeptical, and interested all at once. When the hackers leave, who's going to end up doing maintenance on these projects? It's not unusual for a gov't developer to work on a project just long enough to be p

Any idea if a network-level FFI has been started? I'm thinking along the lines of the Haskell erlang-ffi [0]. Speaks the Erlang network protocol and impersonates an Erlang node on the network. Fully capable of bi-direc
