That's totally OK, because "some slacker animators figured out how to use the same tool that animated Dr. Manhattans giant blue cock for the Smurf hats in that insipid Smurf movie" is maybe the best bit of useless information

There is nothing so trivial that someone won't cheat at it.

So lemme get this straight...you did this 'research' without figuring out whether the 'target' will compensate you, or if they'd even care, and now you're on HN complaining that they aren't paying you some

OpenLook/XView is contemporary as well. And CDE is a thing, still.

I don't think the judge ruled "...even if they're a protected class", but I didn't read the ruling. And the actual case isn't even about what football team the candidate likes, so it's a bit odd to me the

It's...cute? But the idea that the site I go to engage with a therapist slows my laptop (Dell Inspiron 5770) to a nearly unusable crawl and spins up the fan to max seems to be one of the most egregious impedance mismatch between &quot

I feel like there's more entertaining detail you're leaving out here.

And it's not even the first time Intel has shipped an ARM for this use case; see "Intel StrongARM".

I had heard the 'sovereign citizen' silliness had made it to the EU. Did he complain about the magic flag fringe too?

Nobody pays for support if they remotely think they will not need it. Maybe in your experience. Virtually every company I've worked for or with in the last 2-3 decades (mostly enterprise shops to be fair) paid for support on critial

"Sounds like CA" is exactly what I thought as well. And now I remember why.

Some of us deal with the 95% of users who don't give a steaming crap what some condescending IT droog thinks about Microsoft. Excel is not optional out here in the real world with the unwashed masses.

I feel you. When we moved my mother into semi-assisted living, she insisted on taking all of her 'valuable' Lladros with her. She still mentions what an endowment she's leaving us. They aren't without value, but the i

I don't get the Tcl hate. I use it all the time on Cisco gear, and it's incredibly useful. Sure, if you try and turn it into a 10k+ LOC solution, life is going to suck. But in it's use case envelope, so much value. But the

For your scenarios, I have the police, the public service commission, utility regulators, my elected officials and homeowners insurance to potentially help. Not that it always works, not that it's easy, quick or without pain, but ther

I sure am glad I don't work under those conditions I think we're all glad you don't work on things that require long term stability.

Stack traces, too. I did some work with a heavy Java shop and pretty much everything sensitive ended up in a stack trace at some point.

That's really awesome. It's important that we not go down the path that there's only one tech to solve a problem. Unfortunately, I'm not in Germany, so I can't participate.

I think they're winding it down, but NEC still sells (or until recently sold) a version of their SX line of vector 'supercomputers', the latest iteration of which comes on PCI-e cards. Runs Unix and has things like a CUDA-co

The OP says that 8-bit CPUs couldn't handle Pascal well The 6502 might not have been able to handle Pascal well, but Borland Turbo Pascal for CP/M (z80, 8080, etc) worked very, very well. It was also released in 1983 or so, but

I think if the shipper can't determine the amount of copper in their products, then neither can customs. Customs doesn't have to. They can simply decide you haven't followed the rules, and it'll be up to you to prove

Having bumped into this world via family...even small manufacturers that do substantial portion of their business overseas often have dedicated import/export people, or contract to firms that handle it. It's just smart business.

multiply it by a guess There's your problem. It enables selective enforcement, because the authorities can decide at any time "if you're off by 0.1% we'll consider you in violation".

Parkes radio telescope has a 200'+ dish designed to detect infinitesimal traces of radiation from across the universe. I'd be wildly disappointed if it couldn't detect a microwave in the next building.

I use MAC based VLANs to automatically segregate types of devices no matter where they plug in. Works pretty well. I don't know if it's a feature available on all smart switches, particularly the low end ones, but it's comm
