In general, corporations do that more or less to hedge their bets. They want the candidate that they support to win, but if the other candidate wins, they will be able to settle with at least some influence on that other candidate through t

Huh...I never knew that. I wonder why the APIs were designed this way; there has to be legitimate uses for this, right?

Dumb question: since modern CPUs and operating systems support virtual memory, shouldn't it be impossible for processes to access memory of other processes, since processes no longer have to deal with shared memory? ...unless you'

At around the latitude of San Francisco (northern hemisphere), you should be able to find Sagitta/Delphinus almost directly overhead at around 10 PM. At around maybe 5 AM, both constellations will set due west.

For me, it doesn't even respond to ^C (or even ^\). I had to ^Z it, and then `kill %1`. Could be an OS-dependent thing. I'm using OS X.

I'm going to hazard a guess and say that military people tend to be much better physically prepared than anyone else for the forces they will experience during space missions.

Shouldn't be the former. I just signed up literally within the past 5 minutes. Well, unless you got really unlucky...

I still have my 128 MB thumb drive. It still works. At the price that I (okay, not me, but my parents) paid for it back then in 7th grade, I can get a USB 3.0 32 GB one today.

That's what I thought until my first summer internship at a Rails shop. Our unit test suite could take a very long time to run (on my Macbook Air dev machine, it would take 15-20 minutes to run). The slowdown came from testing ActiveRecord

I had issues with updating Eclipse itself. The last time I used Eclipse was when I updated the main IDE itself. The update somehow broke my plugins (including Google's ADT) so badly that I had to remove Eclipse and reinstall it and the plug

But how would you define "success"? For example, let's say that Ouya delivers the consoles to those who funded the project, but after a year or two, it dies out from lack of developer interest. Would you define that as a "success" because i

I highly recommend http://dochub.io/ over w3schools. Not only does it source MDN, which is much more accurate, but it allows you to instantly search for whatever CSS property or JS function/object you're looking for. (The only thing that

Agile isn't right for all software projects. For example, mission critical applications, like medical devices, shouldn't be developed with an agile methodology. Agile is better suited for projects that can be easily and appropriately protot

This has a side-effect that I don't like. Python's virtualenv, once activated, places the string '(venv)' (assuming you named it 'venv') immediately before your prompt to let you know that it is active in this terminal. However, this export
