This is problematic in many different ways. Tax reasons are one. Noncompete agreements with exempts for non commercial / open source work another. Having a balance on this site, even if it's zero, can have severe implications for

There are still some nuclear powered ice breakers in operation. The last one was finished in 2007. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear-powered_icebreaker

I went to school next to THTR-300 which was built from 1971 on and is now defunct thanks to incompetence and huge failures in crisis management. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/THTR-300

No, I've been working 20h weeks for years. Companies are very desperate to find decent people and it's better to have one for 20 hours compared to 0 hours. (I'm in Germany where students are not allowed to work more than 20 h

Some are available. Just search for OV or OmU in the catalog. It's a pain in the ass finding them, though.

A good CTO would help you improving. I know it's stupid to make assumptions, but I'd assume he's trying to manipulate himself into higher equity in an early stage. Telling someone that he's about to be let go is poison m

Melatonin is prescription only in Germany. Bad luck, I guess.

This is quite funny. I learned about JSFuck in 2012 when I took some of my fellow students to a JavaScript meetup in Hamburg. JSFuck has since developed to be a kind of running gag among the students at our computer science department when

I'm not familiar with US legislation regarding this, but our (german) laws regulating publicly traded companies would cause a lot of trouble for both Icahn and Icahn Enterprises. I wonder what he was thinking while typing up that doubl

Snake oil. Election day is coming, the conservative idiots in charge want some good press. The german interpretation of e-Mail (de-Mail) is utter bullshit. Encrypted e-Mail that is decrypted multiple times on its way, of course that will pr

I doubt the patch size is even configurable, as identified patterns can be scaled accordingly. However the author is not to blame, because JBIG2 is poorly documented and the implementation of the compressor is not specified in the standard.

Of course they would have been better off with T.6, as Group 4 at least did not modify the image content. However especially with TIFF there are/were countless implementations of viewers, components, libraries and every single one of t

CCITT Group 4 also known as Modified Modified Read is in no way something you'd be wanting to use now ever . I'm telling you why MMR sucks hard: 1. It's monochrome. No greyscale, no color. This works for text and lines, bu

JBIG2 compression is in no way a standard compression algorithm, as the standard only describes decompression. The compression depends on the implementation. And this is where incompetence comes back into the game.

by linohh 13y ago
Yeah, and because the libraries are not open source, we'll never be able to check who failed big time.

The trouble is, there is no reasonable in doubt anymore. Copying and digital archiving both rely on the premise that there is no manipulation. Lossy compression always seemed to be OK because the image quality was reduced without changing t

by linohh 13y ago
This was predictable. JBIG2 is in no way secure for document processing, archiving or whatsoever. The image is sliced into small areas and a probabilistic matcher finds other areas that are similar. This way similar areas only have to be st

U+F8FF is the last code-point of the private use zone. Appearance of the character is entirely random and depends on the font in use. Don't use it for anything outside of an environment you can control. For me it's displayed as a

I'm sure some redneck sheriff would love to send a SWAT team. Can't let the expensive team just sit around all day, they need entertainment and the city gets nice law & order pictures to please the crime-fearing crowd.

Unfortunately, I can't. In my opionion, ADD diagnosis must be test driven. There are some very good tests which indicate what your problems are. If someone suffers from borderline or bipolar disorder, ADD treatment may be bad as well.

What many people don't understand is the stress people with ADD are exposed to. Especially when they're smart. Imagine having a porsche in your driveway, but for reasons you can only use the first gear. No matter how hard you push

What's the point in this? Of course the stuff doesn't boost grades by itself. It enables kids and adults to work for school or university or whatever like someone "normal". It doesn't increase your motivation, it in
