Make a mapping of some ID to a URL in a database, make the final URL that redirects have the ID in it, not the target URL. That being said, this whole thing is pretty silly with the given examples. If banks were doing this it'd be anot

Your assertion that a game like Starcraft is built such that it makes cheating difficult is unfounded. Because Starcraft players both synchronize the full state of the game, even what's in the fog of war to your opponent means that che

Is it typical at this sort of event to announce new things? I'm generally unfamiliar with these sorts of conventions/conferences or whatever you call it, but reading through the titles and descriptions of the talks just makes it s

That was my thought, too. It seems like if they do this then they'll be going down the same path as Microsoft did with the Surface RT and Surface Pro, right?

That's basically the Veyron weight, and that feels like a supercar right? The important characteristic is the weight to WHP ratio, and even the 0 to 60 is very impressive.

A family friend with Comcast in the Seattle area has an IPv6 address that Google and other sites can see. That is, when they ask Google what their IP address is they only get their IPv6 address back as a response. This can only happen if en

Why don't you just use Spotify's native client? They have one for Windows, Linux, iOS, Android and I assume OSX. Edit: Oh, unless you're talking more about congestion being the problem for Spotify, though you can download pla

Is the reason EA aren't doing this on iOS because it's against an App Store policy or they're afraid of being removed/rejected?

The modern cars I've driven with LCD dashboards (modern as in like MY2013) have all allowed screwing with everything while driving, even GPS. I remember when it wasn't allowed, but at some point they relaxed those rules?

I don't understand, I'm not really seeing anything interesting in the SQL dumps, were they scrubbed of most of their rows? It looks like most of the tables are severely outdate/deprecated tables that were once used for testin

You must be doing something wrong then. MSSQL resolves the entire statement (CTEs plus final query) into a single query that it optimizes as a whole. Can you share an example of two queries that are equivalent where one is written using CTE

I feel like developers who haven't worked with medium-sized data don't know where to draw the "big data" line. You see this with companies overspending for complicated "big data" solutions when the only have so
