In particular, If the secret police starts breaking down your door, just calmly shuffle the deck. (Don't throw it up in the air; you'd be surprised how much of the deck ordering is maintained during a game of 52-Pickup.)

There are two links to this post on the front page right now. This one, https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/T4X... , loads fine on my computer and comes up in the "new" Google visual design. It completely fails on my

To be fair, I don't the the point of Texts From Last Night (which this is a parody of/homage to) is "celebrating" ill-considered drunken text messages. For whatever reason, humans find it entertaining to watch other humans do stupid things.

Also, sizeof is an operator, not a function, so you can write that as long_struct_name *foo = malloc(sizeof *foo);

I pirated some music today[0]. I went to my usual shops to try to buy it, and for some reason the label had explicitly decided not to offer downloads of any sort. Just vinyl and CD. I wanted it now, and I couldn't really be arsed with those

So, it takes the same amount of time to tap something on a touchscreen, no matter what size it is and how far away it is from your finger, then?

How are screen edges no longer infinite? If I ask you to tap something and drag it off an edge of the screen, you don't have to aim.

One possible reason is that people tend not to upgrade their fonts. Therefore, old and buggy versions would remain out there, and lots of people copy fonts from their friends instead of getting them from the source. It's a difficult problem

I take issue with your last statement as well. Anyone can idle their life away. For many depressed people (at least myself), changing their broken neurochemistry with drugs, ECT or both is a necessary but not sufficient condition to identif

This page doesn't answer the posed question. It's actually something about SCM advocacy and adoption curves. The chart on the front page is much more informative.

The idea that fast-forward merges are easier to follow is subjective. I find my --no-ff history easier to read. This author doesn't. What always using fast-forward merges really means is that you rebase each branch onto master once it's r

I don't understand the point of "uri":"/transactions/1". Isn't the new resource's URI already part of the response (in the Location: header)? It's sort of like saying GET /posts/show/1 vs. GET /posts/1.

Very strange that he describes the MIT approach as "good" and the New Jersey approach as "not good enough" -- I have always understood them as "good" and "good enough". As in: why didn't we succeed? Because good enough was good enough. Base

I'm not sure why you think this lattice method does not teach place value. The page you linked to doesn't explain (at all) why it works, sure, but the method is just a clever way of notating place. I would expect any good teacher to get his
