Computers just don't show up, despite, as far as I can tell, being properly configured for it. It's probably a network settings thing (as I believe it is with BTMM). I've only used it on my local LAN though.

I'll concede my claim requires a belief in an absolute morality, which I don't necessarily, but take it my claim in the following form: 1. You believe that copyright infringement is a "wrong" committed by one party on another party (the vic

This is one hundred percent a personal opinion, but I suspect its one that I'm not alone in. I use iCloud and Dropbox, I don't even really see how they're competitors from my perspective. iCloud does things like sync my iCal calendars and S

You could make the case there are victims in the US though, no? I don't support the concept of extradition (period, I think?), but there is a case to be made that the U.S. is aiming to protect its citizens (the media companies in this case)

You compute 'centroids' which denote the centers of the clusters, but you don't have to change the values of all points to the centers of the clusters. In other words, you can maintain the detail in RGB space (as this author has) while reor

I also did something similar to this recently, but in PHP. I did grouping similar colors (although I rendered mine as tiled squares), as well as a few other things like grouping by brightness. Some neat results, for sure. I can put the code

The hot dog stand will be motivated to keep the store open (i.e., allowing it to make its bills, and generate zero economic profit) to keep the profitable rent behavior viable though. So we can expect Spotify to make just enough to be satis

I can respond to his comment from my own perspective. With my own customers, I have a policy of accepting blame for everything and always working to fix pretty much anything. This, semi-regularly, results in customers who notice this policy

The first line says that he meets 10,000 women, then the next line says there's a 1 in 2000 chance that he has kids with a woman he meets... that means he had 5 wives?
