I don't know about food allergies, but for hay fever I think the allergies were there before - people weren't educated enough to recognize the symptoms. My father (born in 1948) got fed with anti-biotics for the first 40 years of

Not sure if that's wrong, but it seems that the program would crash if you call pop() on an empty Queue? I guess it never happens in this particular program, which I assume was the reason to squeeze even more performance.

The paper states that this would only alter the center of mass. If you catch the coin or it lands on a soft surface, it has no effect, because the outcome is determined by the time when it stops. If you allow it to bounce, then yes. TL;DR:

One could say the same thing for Win32 API. That's why you had Microsoft MFC, Borland VCL, wxWidgets, etc. running on top of it and making it more user friendly. The real problem seems to be that Android API is moving so fast, that it&

Yup, especially for strategies. It's much easier to touch the position with your finger then having to drag mouse across the screen.

I tried using VS some time ago and didn't find anything I don't already have in other IDEs like Eclipse (I mostly write C++ and Java code). Except that it is faster. Perhaps I missed something that could increase my productivity..

Heartstone is one of those free-2-play games with pay-2-win model. I see that many fail to see this just because it was made by a respectable PC developer. Heartstone is no different from Clash of Clans. It may be slightly less evil, but st

Don't buy a Nexus. I have and it's a huge disappointment. I had a perfect Nexus 10 device running KitKat. And then it keeps nagging to upgrade to Lollipop, so I did. Ever since that, it runs every application slow as hell. If you

Yup. I don't know if anyone researched it, but I bet it highly correlates with browser usage. On a couple of websites I run, I notice that IE market share is much higher in the US than Europe.
