Wu's solution for the Cluedo puzzle seems inefficient. Could've saved an array assignment by doing mur[] and wep[] at the same time since they are of the same length. Also, there might be a bug in Wu's solution. It seems the first time thro

There are many objective studies that show that individuals with their own specific trading/investing strategies can beat the street. But that's not really the point. The point is that AAPL is now only second to XOM in terms of market cap,

Or maybe the "analysts" are just not any good. For a specific example, look at how the "hobbyists" are beating the "professional" analysts at predicting Apple's quarterly performance, time and time again. http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/0

I'm going to stick my neck out and say RealBasic. Yes, the language is proprietary and costs money, but it's really easy to get some code going, it runs on multiple platforms, and you can make native API and DLL function calls where the sta

Outside of the United States, there are test standards called the GC(S)E "A" and "O" levels which are roughly equivalent to entrance exams for college/senior high respectively. Because these exams have been going on for DECADES, the examini

4 out of the 5 things you mentioned are in Rockmelt. And you can bet Rockmelt is doing analytics on the activities being performed.

This is similar in a sense to how Adobe mishandled their "Flash on iOS" play, right from the start. They took it for granted that Apple would allow Flash-developed apps on the App Store.

Thanks for sharing your story; and it does seem similar to what PG experienced: http://www.paulgraham.com/yahoo.html Seems that the aphorism: "don't explain concepts to someone whose salary depends on his not understanding them" applies.

It's the "curse of the x0s"; people tend to take stock of their lives when they're near 20, 30, 40, 50 etc. and can be quite harsh with themselves during this period of time. Have a look at Steve Jobs's Stanford commencement address on YouT

I'm learning LISP through this book, and it's fun! On p.42, when explaining the c*r functions, I found it easier to just read the "sequence" right-to-left. For example: (cadadr '((peas carrots tomatoes) (pork beef chicken) duck)) BEEF

I bought the print and eBook bundle and so far I'm really pleased with it. I'm at Chapter 3 already and it's an easy read; the author explains things in simple English that's very easy to follow. The illustrations help in clarifying concept

Apple should acquire the rights to Steam from Valve. It makes a good fit for their business: 1) Prevent competition on the Mac app store 2) Proven distribution/scalability 3) Instant community that can bolster Ping Edited. Brainfart, put

PHP-powered sites accounted for a lot of vulnerabilities through the years. Part of it was due to its popularity (like VB was back in the day), but part of it could also be blamed on certain design decisions e.g. register_globals.
