The Mono framework[1] has been pretty popular in some circles for years now, so I imagine a decent amount of adoption can be expected once .Net Core proves stable. 1: http://www.mono-project.com/

Sure but implementing the card back image is more difficult, which is what I think the parent post was getting at, rather than the flipping itself. The rest of the page is implemented without any images, which is neat; you'd have to wo

But... but it's not a wormhole. Not in the usual sense of the word anyway. When I think of a wormhole, I think of a "hole" through spacetime that transfers something from point A to point B by entirely bypassing all the space

I think his point was that if you're seeking out all the pairs when you curl them together, you're still spending unnecessary time and effort matching socks, just ahead of time instead of in the moment when you need socks

How would you filter out the offending MMS messages? People send legitimate videos as well; is the bug such that it's obvious which videos contain exploits?

The most standout part of this attack (to me) is that it can be 100% silent. The fact that the bug hits before the text notification is fired means that an exploit could potentially stop the notification, delete the message, and go on tramp

P1. Any given moment must be designated past, present, or future. P2. The designations "past", "present", and "future" are a true trichotomy, such that it is impossible for any moment to not have any of these

McTaggart's objection to the B-series sounds equally applicable to space. As I understand it, B-series conceptions of time consider it essentially another dimension. The summary of McTaggart's objection could be rephrased: > [

afaik it's certainly not any kind of established fact that time isn't a property of the universe. Time is fundamental to causality, which makes it hard to reduce away. I've heard it theorized that a linear conception of time

You may be right, but huge problems arise with the open-everything-testing solution with regards to access to resources, especially with standardized testing. SATs (and standardized tests in general) are meant to be a blind test that object
