When you double down, you have to stand, and you can only double down on your first hit. The article makes it seem that he doubled after getting the card, when reality he made that decision before he got the 2's and 3's. He split his 8's to

As much as I'd like to see the cable co's die, not the TV industry entirely. The internet is not a truly viable alternative for now. I'll say this as someone who lives last mile (half or even a quarter if you want to be technical). Televisi

Thanks for this, I was late on finding out about the first bundle, and didn't know they had a second one out yet.

Even your parody is flawed. If you go back to when the Latin Alphabet was introduced there were approximately 100 million people in the entire world, and only a subset of a subset would have been required to adopt this. Over nearly 3 millen

Yes I remember that, but my eyes are actually adding elements to it and creating more noise around them. If you want to fit more information into a smaller space a script without a 1:1 relation to Latin alphabet might be better. It's almost

Is this a piece of satire? I might be able to use it, but I still feel that I would need space between characters otherwise there is a risk of error, without needing to slow down and make sure things are aligned properly. Also the examples

The combination of 1 and 3 can be found in 'The Illuminatus! Trilogy'[1]. Lake Vostok isn't involved in the story, but there is a portion based on the same rumors of the Nazi secret base. The current time period is set about 40 years ago. [

And when you factor out just the ITA acquisition, as it was pointed out in the article, it drops to just over 15 million per acquisition.

Having just come in to work at an independent bookstore, I find most of it accurate, particularly the part about checks. We have an abnormally high-quality customer in that regard. The one gripe I have is the thought that when people ask fo

It was discovered that you could embed user images for chat based on user id, or reference, a few weeks ago [1]. I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't related to this as well. I haven't seen this before, but I do agree it's pretty interest

This was making me feel like there was something wrong with my eyes. It took me about a minute to figure out it was the site and not me; I didn't figure it out until I spotted the article numbers. The contrast in the bar is really low, so I

If I remember correctly there was a minor bump with the release of su.pr, but the recent growth has been correlated mainly with their mobile applications.

On the assumption that your question is verbatim what you give applicants, I'd say your success rate would be low. Your question lacks appropriate definition to be solved, in it's current state. You have multiple types of folds that could b

If I can reuse the knowledge gained by understanding it, I go for it. In understanding, I can reduce complexity, or at least try, for future users. Also if I find something that is complex, e.g. OAuth, I try to preserve the sources of infor

First off, I like the idea, but there are some noticeable flaws, many which have been brought up. One interesting one for me, which is more an oversight, is that anyone can make money off of the sale of a link. There is no way to validate
