You misspelled the word consistently with each usage. I thought you were trying to be funny. So, it wasn't clearly a typo to two distinct readers. PS - It looks like you edited the second outrage, but not the first.

I don't trust those things on TV. They seem so easy to slant in a direction that suits the producers. That's not to say that a bias wouldn't exist in that scenario. However, it's not like you can conclude that most peopl

Is the patent troll moniker appropriate in this case? Wasn't IA Labs actually building and trying to sell similar products?

That falls flat for custom/vendor classes. It's a fairly convenient route for a device that doesn't fit the other molds using libusb/WinUSB drivers.

ARM and Samsung probably get a little credit for the processor too.

Then they would ask for the keys again. If they thought you did it on purpose, then it's another--probably much worse--contempt charge.

I live in Florida, and my first thought was "hell no." Imagine the damage it would do when the first hurricane sends it flying through the air.

Scooter Libby was charged for obstructing an investigation. He didn't leak any secrets. I don't see the connection.

If you are referring to its origins in the French Revolution, then you could say the same for "conservative" and "right." I personally don't consider any of the aforementioned terms as derogatory. They are sometimes

There are multiple ways to unfold a box into 2 dimensions. For example, see this printable pattern that you can try at home [1]. Also, how else would you determine the distance between two coordinates in a plane without using the Pythagorea

I don't understand why people accuse politicians of using politics. Isn't that like accusing a farmer of plowing a field?

That's a bait and switch. Perhaps they wouldn't have made the purchase without the incentive. If the mortgage goes underwater because the law is changed, then they lose a lot more than a tax benefit.

There is an interesting story in "Three Felonies a Day" where an employer discovers child pornography on an employee's computer [1]. They contact their attorney, and the lawyer deletes the offending content to protect the company since simp

That wouldn't help with housing prices. Demand is still reduced when grandfathered owners try to sell. That would definitely make it harder to move for a new job.

Why do the start ups need to be Arduino-based? There are a lot of excellent microcontrollers on the market aside from the ATmega. Also, that form-factor doesn't seem well suited to most applications. For example, this thing has most of the

I'm equally repulsed by huge, highly nested functions. However, I'd have to say that the game play provided by this function was one of my favorite parts of Jedi Outcast.

In my opinion, having (1==true) evaluated to true, but (2==true) evaluate to false is more inconsistent. Even non-professionals should follow logic if they are going to program.

Are you confusing (1==true) with (1 and true)? The value 1 is a number while true is a Boolean. Why should apple==orange ever be true?

I've never seen this before: void bar(int myArray[static 10]) Is that standard, and if so, how long has it been? I also ran across this construct in a quick search [1]: void bar(int myArray[const]) [1] http://stackoverflow.co
