If itwere 20k lines, he would probably have said something like "it was a 7 line Perl script that generated 20k lines of c that generated inputs for whatever"

He does have linodes and s3. i have his very same setup. Just replace the s3 with a desktop, xmonad with ion3 (i know), and the mac book with a T40. Also I thankfully do not use latex too much.

I stand corrected. it's 1A when used with the proprietary cable. when used with a regular miniUSB cable , i only get 0.5A. or the one i have from a 3Gs box is only 0.5A.

Previous diesels were awful because of the stuff we had in the diesel itself. The engines are still the same, mostly. any year car you get that still have good compression will give you a clean burn (if it's too lean, you get too much nitro

I'm not. I pay 300 a year, but i don't even cover my car. But yesterday i did the car coverage for a used 09 bmw 128iC. Couldn't get any lower than that on several websites

Not suggesting a 50s diesel. But anything up to the price of a prius would be better. Point is, even a gasoline suv pollutes less than a prius overall if you don't use it that often. Just arguing that as an engineer, you should look at othe

The main thing is: - she don't need the car often - buys expensive new car - buys a car that can't sit for a long time If she researched a little more she would have not got a new hybrid but some old diesel. It's probably cleaner than agaso

The insurance company can't have the cake and.eat it too. Either the owner pay as if she wasn't doing a business, or the dead guy's pay as if he was driving a rental. Mine is pretty basic and i can pay my deductible for rentals.

Just for comparison, here in the us insurance for a 25k car and minimal (some 100 or 300k for the described case in the article) plus uninsured driver would be well over 1.2k per month. In other countries i paid that per year for way more p

isn't items more efficient than iteritems when you are going to go over all the items for sure on a short list?

the problem i ever had with the short outlet plugs in the US is the cable falling on it's own. can't fathom it being stuck there in any circumstance.

It just misses the core factor mentioned in the fiction. The Nietzschesque need for a 3rd war were we would come out as a unified earth. Under one government. Also the immediate need to focus on that after contact with the vulcans.

not sure what's the decent CS. also, i took the 120 from nowhere. i pay it at att for two lines. and would be exactly the same amount for tmobile. so, no, changing operators is not an option. service and price is the very same.

The least i can pay at tmobile for: minimum voice, 5gb data is a total of 89 something. Stop spreading lies

For #3, if it's that broken, kill it. Always though Amazon were putting crap on the categories in the hopes I'd buy it. Like markets puts peanuts close to beer. If it's all textual search, and that bad, kill it.

Sorting by most sold/popular is ok on the fist items because other ppl looked for the actual stuff and bought it. but even that doesn't help on less popular categories

There's no excuse like that for Amazon. Ideally, you would click electronics category. Apple. IPod. Order by price. You didn't select category iPod accessories, so you shouldn't see them there But some slob at Amazon sacrificed search by ad

It's only bad because they are lazy greedy slobs. It's the easiest problem to solve. Just remove bad categorization. Open Amazon, click any category. Let's say hdmi cables. What do you see? Probably televisions, screws, microwave ovens, inf

Why they wouldn't? It's a very solid regulated monopoly. Name one thing you can do. only answer is "exchange one $120/mo plan at company A to the same at company B"

that's the point of view of a small agency. And the big agency would go nowhere if it actually had to do the creative work. and yes, when the client is clueless, there's lot of people in the way making money.
