What kind of draw can you put on these batteries? An 85kWh battery may be more useful in every garage than this article claims. The added expense is claimed to "keep consumers away", but really it means things like solar panels be

Putting aside the fact that the budget for that particular small public state funded University didn't require more than the public funding and tuition, that premise seems odd. If the justification for someone's salary is "th

Or perhaps the average salary of non-administrative and non-exec workers. And 10x seems like an arbitrary (and large) multiplier. What justifies it? What does the president of a University do that adds that much value to a University? I rem

VAC has never been particularly effective. This check isn't particularly useful as it doesn't actually prove that a player is or has ever cheated. It's also trivial to bypass (`ipconfig /flushdns`) if you are an actual c

That wouldn't be the result. The result is that the final card is swapped only once, and can never be swapped with itself, meaning it is always somewhere else in the deck. If the final card is the ace of spades, then the ace of spades

It seems to me that the only major issue here is using a seed which can be trivially brute forced. Even if you don't look around the expected server time in order to guess the seed more quickly, 32 bits is really not hard at all to bru

It's worth noting around 2009 that the harder Computer Science exam was no [longer being given by AP][wikipedia]. The course I had was AP Computer Science aimed at the AB test back in 2004-2005. It was in Java but every bit as rigorous

A long long time ago before I ever wrote a line of code, I'd just play all the games I could. I was fascinated by how they worked. I later found a book on BASIC that introduced programming by having the reader write simple word games.

Both. They aren't mutually exclusive. I don't believe ads are a valid source of monetization. Once you start showing ads, you invariably become evil. Free to use, free content by default, with premiums and ratings/comments to

Coroutines (or generators) are a really nice sugar for callbacks. This looks a lot like ES6's yield, just s/await/yield/. But to answer your question, since these can't be done in parallel, you'd have to keep t
