Here in Australia there is a move towards this same technology. Vehicle registration stickers are being phased out because the registration of vehicles are auto queried by police vehicles, RTA cameras, etc I'm pretty happy about this becaus

Actually I was using a google docs spreadsheet to store usernames/passwords for various forums I had registered on. I didn't want to use any of the various password storage systems, the usernames/passwords weren't something I really cared i

So I just set this up on my home machine and a work machine.. I got caught out with the pre-defined host config because I didn't realise I needed to allow both tcp AND udp through the firewall, so my work machine was unable to access my pri

It's extremely hard to get an accurate idea on where you rank. The sample size you have to draw on is small and biased. I just find it overwhelming that the more I learn, the more I realise I don't know. However I will say, your ability to

Was reading the article, excited by the prospect when I realised, we have a hard enough time identifying planets dozens of light years away, from direct light, that surely the reflected light from a massive object 3000 light years away woul

Yeah amazing they finally managed to ship it. XE3 came out last September, and had essentially nothing new over XE2. They had to pull C++ support because it was so buggy. Anyone who has been a C++ Builder customer will no doubt be excited,

Not really a fair comparison. Unless the start-up was tax payer funded, and was doing objectionable things like selling customers credit card/personal information to third parties, and you knew about it, maybe then you would be lauded for e

He's spent a good % of his life in prison, he's facing spending the rest in prison. Admirable that he is attempting to try and take the heat off of WikiLeaks/Assange, even after the incarceration he has already suffered (and likely to suffe

When your tax dollars are paying for military strikes, and you yourself are then made a target by angry foreigners blaming you for supporting your own government, I'd say you have a right to know what "they" are doing. How much? As much is

reading that back, damn, the "depresses me deeply" is a terrible exaggeration, making light of anyone who actually suffers from genuine depression.

Anything I've ever read that Alan Kay has written, either inspires me greatly, or depresses me deeply. His POV is worth 80 IQ quote is something I live by. It applies to _every_ aspect of life. Then you listen to him talk about computer sci

Australian Cyclist here. Firstly, if I could ride to/from work without riding on roads, I would. I don't feel safe riding on the road. I don't like riding on the road, but I do it because where I live there is no other option. I have travel

Making your own biodiesel is completely viable. Until the tipping point where there are too many people making their own biodiesel, and you find yourself competing with everyone else for access to oil/raw material

Once everyone is driving a Tesla, and filling up for "free", where do the taxes come from to pay for the infrastructure? In Australia, the high price of fuel comes because the government puts something like a 50+% tax on it. Most people (in

The video shows Australia. Particularly curious to me was the abundance of light in Western Australia, given a lot of it is unpopulated (sure a bit is mining operations). Turns out it's bush fires.

Pro-active log review is a good idea. No argument. I'd been incredibly lazy about log reviews on my two vps's. I started looking through the logs weekly and was incredibly freaked out by what I saw. There are almost constant attacks on the

I would recommend using one alone, because I do it all the time. Survivor bias! ;) With SS/Stronglifts/Whatever, you begin with an empty bar, (or no bar if you can't squat at all), so the weight doesn't start out being something you need an

exactly! Imagine my surprise when I disovered Delphi has class methods too, but they were not copied to C#. I guess most of the time they're not particularly useful, but when you do need to create some factory code, having pure virtual clas
