Yes this certainly doesn't add incentive to get things done right the first time around.

Wow, I was expecting this to get some criticism as I clicked the comments, but this is a bit more negativity than I would have expected from HN.

On the topic of searching, F# should have a Hoogle equivalent.

He's no longer a minor, so does that still apply because he was a minor at the time it happened?

So is it .bind() itself that is slow, or the function that it returns? Assuming the bind operation itself is done during initialization, its slowness is pretty irrelevant.
96.
by cjfont 13y ago
Since bind() creates a new function just before it's added as a listener, you'll have to save that function somewhere and use that as the listener you want to remove.

The use of list comprehensions is optional, and would probably not be covered in an introductory course anyway.

What psychiatric illness was she diagnosed with that would make her a threat to others? I couldn't find anything beyond self-harm, and not to make light of it, but a survey seems to suggest that incidents of adolescents and adults sel

It would be hard for them to prevent it, to them it would look like it's just another computer on the wifi.

I'm having a hard time seeing how Yale's decision would protect other students -- on the contrary, the message that would send to other students is, "you better not do something to deviate from the norm in an undesirable way

As is usually the case with language design, performance and optimization are often on the opposite side of the scale from code learn-ability and usability. More than likely, the "huge engine" would be some other burden the langu

It's hard to believe a group such as the Gates Foundation would think this way given the stakes.

And yet he doesn't care about type systems, which are largely implemented to help with optimization, you see.

Well given the subject matter they've both chosen to revolve their life work around, doesn't seem that implausible. Edit: Basically I'm just agreeing with you.

I believe this is incorrect, anyone can confirm?

You mean another galaxy, assuming the supernova would create inhospitable conditions throughout all of M82.

HN is the closest thing I've found that addresses that -- I still have to wade through much of the startup stuff which is irrelevant in my case. When I already know what I'm looking for, using HN search will lead to me to what&#

Nope, I wasn't aware it existed. At first glance it looks very useful, although I don't think I'm a fan of the bubbly look and the spider leg edges (my maps tend to be fairly large, so I suppose I like a more compressed look

In Freemind it's the tab key, which is both intuitive and easy to find.

Fantastic work, I've been using Freemind up to now and I haven't been able to find something web-based that is comparable until now.

I can confirm this is true, as I've been escorted into SCIFs before I obtained a clearance.

To my knowledge this is usually because the server responds to the browser's user-agent and serves content appropriate for the mobile device. If you override the user-agent and mimic a desktop browser, how would the traffic pattern be

by cjfont 13y ago
Can you elaborate? How can they detect this other than using methods such as looking at your user-agent or TTL, both of which could be controlled on a jail-broken device?

Cute, but it has to be annoying to try to solve a Rubik's Cube without being able to flip it around. Also, not sure if it's due to the quality of the photos, but the colors seem a bit difficult to distinguish. But hey it's

That is because the animation capabilities of CSS are still meant to be used for presentation purposes (like a cute response to mouse movement or a head bobbing around), rather than an all out game engine. The idea is still cute, but I fre

A simple improvement would be to make overlapping drops unite into one big oval, but it's otherwise very realistic.
