You seem to be pretty interested in being as bored as possible with this discussion.......

Weird. I just won it three times in a row without that happening. How reproducible is it for you?

Maybe he fixed this, but this doesn't seem to be the case as I am playing it right now.

Interesting tidbit from the announcement about this on SpaceX's website: > In fact, Dragon has so much interior volume, that we could place an entire three-person Russian Soyuz capsule descent module inside Dragon’s pressure vessel. Th

> "there's nothing illegal going on." That's not what I asked, is it? Or do you mean that only illegal activities are worthy of our attention?

Don't you think that there might be a difference between a person contemplating something, and an organization of people doing so?

Denial of service concerns seem to be at least briefly discussed in the paper (which I have not finished reading yet): 2 We do not prevent against a denial-of-service attack where an ac- tive attacker intercepts packets and resends th

And even better, just turn on Vi style line editing in your shell. Vi was designed for editing over high latency connections.

Isn't Go normally statically linked if cgo isn't being used? Would that mean that the DLL's in the virtual address space definitely shouldn't be there?

Exactly how much power to you think a tesla coil uses...? O.o Also, the primary reasons you cannot run (most kinds) of nuclear reactors in your garage have nothing to do with your power company (this said, if you do want to run your own p

No, it would not... Give me a break. I pray that Poe's Law is in out in full force here.

Unless you are claiming that he is lying, I don't think that contrived means what you think it means.

by burgerbrain 15y ago
Why do you get to say that what he does is contrived? What makes your usage patterns any less "contrived" than his?

The "clearing up ambiguity" thing is bullshit. Nobody is going to fail to use context clues to figure out what is meant by "Go" in this discussion. Where such disambiguation is actually needed, "Go (language)" or simply "go-lang"/"golan

Targeting systems programming is. The existing languages used there are rather firmly entrenched.

> "Anyway, "systems" in this case includes daemons and server processes." For that sense of "systems", Go excels and Java enjoys a great deal of popularity.

It's carbon neutral in the sense that the CO2 it puts in the air was taken out of the air a decade ago, not millions of years ago. >Which you can do anyway. Buying wood funds planting trees. Buying gas and oil do not.

frobozz is likely referring to this: http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Nuremberg_defense in response to this: ' Nobody is blamed for following the "rules" '

For the more traditional definitions of "systems programming", yes. I would agree with that. However I don't think anybody is really marketing Go for that niche.

Hardly anything wrong with them as far as I can tell, provided you don't have neighbours. I would suspect that all the wood people burn in North America as fuel is greatly offset by all the forest fires people in North America put out. La

I'm going to to off on a limb here and say that MU would not dare relaunch until after Kimble is released. If he is convicted I have a hard time believing they would/could relaunch even if they had the data. So what the MPAA is basically

I know that you're not serious, but I just feel the need to reinforce that having to hide a portion of your identity does not in fact shield you from discrimination. The simple fact that you have to do so is discrimination itself. Of cours
