While the answer boils down to "diet and exercise" the point of the article was explaining the changes in mindset it took to get the author to change his habits. Knowing that diet and exercise is the most effective way to get heal

The author said they started at a DUMBO station. Then they walked for half an hour. The author doesn't reveal the location for obvious reasons.

You can get more modest powered paragliders for <$10k. Paratoys and Fresh Breeze are a couple of the more popular brands.

You probably know this, but I think the author is confusing a string literal with a lowercase string. String a = "hello"; String b = "hello"; a == b will evaluate to true. String a = new String("hello"); String b = new String("hello"); a =

It doesn't happen like that though. Natural gas, sure. Power bill, definitely. I've never had natural gas or electric service where I entered a contract for a service at a fixed price. My cable and cell phone service are on a contract, they

This isn't a credit card error. This would be like signing a contract with Sprint for 500 minutes a month for $20, getting charged the $20, and then being charged an extra per-minute fee that wasn't in the contract.

A TS/SCI is required for just about every intel job in the military, so sure it's probably factually accurate to say that's the lowest clearance for an analyst. But it's also the clearance that 95% (an educated estimate) of analysts hold. T

These PRC 152 radios are pretty common in the military, I imagine DHS folks have something comparable. I'd wager that you wouldn't be able to figure one out without training if it was just handed to you. http://rf.harris.com/capabilities/t

I do a bit of consulting for MS CRM and this looks like a straight ripoff of the UI from 4.0. What differentiates CRMFly from any other CRM product? Are you competing solely on price?

I'm surprised nobody has done this, actually. I live in Alaska and have a friend who is a dentist. He works exclusively in remote villages with a portable kit of equipment he flies around with on small chartered aircraft. It would definitel

I did something similar once with a flatbed scanner. Put my hand/face/whatever on the bed and moved it parallel to the scan head. Made for really long creepy fingers or a smushed up face.

When I was a kid my father worked for Southern Bell. I used to go in with him on trouble calls to the local office and it was a building full of rows and rows of relays like those. Smelled awesome.

According to Google that's not true. "In order to do this we had to deploy no additional machines and no special hardware. On our production front-end machines, SSL/TLS accounts for less than 1% of the CPU load, less than 10KB of memory per

Part of being a good developer is teasing the constraints out of the customer. You're never going to be handed a perfect requirement. If you're not given constraints don't get annoyed, simply ask about them.
