I'm British, so you don't need to explain using mixed systems, however in any kind of academic, engineering or scientific contexts metric units are used almost exclusively. Yes, people still refer to height in feet and inches a lo

I wonder how many lives are lost each year (not just in aviation but globally) because the US refuses to convert to the metric system.

Firstly, does your approach still invalidate the original password? If not that's really counter-intuitive. If I click a reset password button I want my password reset. Secondly, it sounds like you just give auth based on this token so

One trouble with JIRA is that it doesn't come opinionated, this often means that if one team starts tweaking it, another team gets presented with 30 fields and no idea what to do with them all. Or you get one location who try to use it

This may be a culture thing but I'd be uncomfortable asking a 20 year old professional to bring me a coffee. Edit: This was originally in response to a suggestion that OP would be uncomfortable asking a 40 year old for coffee which has

The blog post is sadly not easy to follow along to try to do an implementation due to what appear to be minor description mistakes or poor writing which confuses. It switches from saying that 0 in the map represents white, to saying it is

There's a never ending stream of aspiring actors and writers too. Forming a union has offered them some protection from being exploited by studios and perhaps game developers should do the same.

These conclusions are frustrating to read because they haven't handled the numbers properly at all and have drawn poor conclusions. Take a scenario where Java/C# are popular and have 20 people applying for each position but Go isn

If you look at most of the recent smash hit indie games\* they really don't innovate graphically at all, instead they bring something new to the table in terms of gameplay. Most are "rogue-lite" which is a hot genre right now

I feel this comes from a frustrating kind of purism, like xp, which is a nice thought experiment but is completely unworkable in the real world. The real-world consequence of this would be people not writing tests until after they are fea

Both options there feel like the wrong solution. Why would you call the constructor 100 times to popuate 100 4-byte arrays? It's a service, surely the best approach to call the constructor once, then populate 100 4-byte arrays by calli
