Google, nor any other corp, should be a Judge on a legal matter. That's why a Judge should be involved. The entire idea of of the DCMA is just massively flawed and biased towards a world where only big publishers and big criminal ente

Windowing and Widgets; those are the two things that always seem to be the biggest issue for cross-platform apps that should be trivial if the groundwork were in place. I solidly blame MS for shipping something like 10+ of their own framewo

It's a lot catchier to say I-5 or I-95 than it is I-10... However dropping the classification from a number is equally problematic be it the timezone (E.G. EST / New York) or a freeway. Absent even any other context, MOST American

If the tire doesn't explode (seems like none happened to) then the drill method leaves the rest in good condition for failure and life analysis.

A related big C myth that I believed for far too long relates to structs / bitfields and how they are NOT required to be packed as tightly as possible by the spec. Worse, offhand, I don't know of any portable / standard way t

They probably haven't and even if they have there's probably some other bogus data in there. A lot of these maps will have a couple 'tells' added, things that don't really exist to say that if a set of things was co

IIRC Panduite is the brand name version of something closest to that. Though you could also use Unistrut as a trough and protect the cables that way in a different enclosed space. More generally I'd like modern houses to have more &#x

I disagree. Your example is like reusing the 'stock footage' again in a new production. While I generally agree that producing a given scene should be work for hire (and similarly studios shouldn't collect residuals for them

I love the idea of a surface layer without cars at all (other than emergency vehicles, and some rare permitted / licensed construction stuff). All of the motor vehicles on a dedicated layer beneath, an industrial transit zone.

I'd like the option to add small positive or negative weights to intersections / roads I know to be problematic. Generally I also prefer to stick to more major roads unless there's a major time savings (E.G. >= 5 min, this

Were it that easy... The community is not that understanding. Groups of people go mean surprisingly easily. This is also one of the reasons victims of other crimes are further damaged beyond just the initial crime. They become classified

The slander / reputation damage alone is the issue. It's an attack on their sense of self and community.

Maybe something like: If a property is vacant for 6 or more months out of a year, the (government regulating this) can forcefully change the 'offered' terms to be as good as the best for any active lease's term item among all

You imply it's the only tax, rather than one of the total taxes.

Land Value Tax should help reflect the opportunity cost for the community as well as the benefit to cashing out of a property.

It's been 12 hours, so rather than an edit to elaborate I'm adding a reply. I mean very different robots from the rovers we've sent to date. Maybe not even more complex robots but definitely bigger (and smaller too) robots.

An Abstract Syntax Tree / or Double-Linked List both qualify, but they're also a lower level implementation detail than I'd expect to frequently interact with in a reference safety focused language. I've still been meani

It does scream 'Research and Development' site way more than literal spaceport. If they get all the other issues fixed and the rockets are mostly reusable it might still be good enough as a production line.

Send a pile of good robots and tools there first. Build a lab. Run it with things that we hope are good enough, but don't value enough to get home (back to earth) safely. If we're really smart we can even use the whole thing to b

What's a frequently encountered case for such cyclic loops? Without details I'm drawn to trying to break the cycle, either by promoting the shared state to a container object for the set, or by breaking it out into it's own

I can see longer than 90 days if there's some HUGE change required, and a decent sized team is allocated to the problem for most of their work time. OR if there's a solution but it needs to progress on a specific (and relatively

I would hope they at least: * Require a copy of the badge number, and verify that this officer is assigned and expected to be at this business right now. * Require them to sign into and out of the site. * Annotate which systems / compr

I suspect Fry's had other issues. At least when they finally came to the Seattle area they picked one of the worst possible locations to open. Much like the ill-fated 'supermall' that opened in the valley south of Seattle (s

Reminds me of how restaurant chains get bought out, and the menu's "optimized" for the best sellers only. Cutting ingredients that are used in the niches. Narrowing in on the stuff that sells the most only. Until all that
