I'm honestly not sure what the Representative meant. This is just what my mother told me (non tech person, she could have misunderstood). I left out the part where the rep told my mother she was already on the cheapest plan. Fortunate

It's frustrating that Verizon and friends can make grandiose statements in their advertising about "unlimited bandwidth", "faster wifi" ,"stream 5 things at a time", etc, etc. Or lie to customers, My mothe

I recently translated one of my Apps from Android to iPhone. I had 0 objective-C experience, but I made it work. It was a bit of a frustrating experience. Many times I found myself writing Objective-C boilerplate-ish code that I had 0 clue

This is awesome on multiple levels, but mainly it unchains the "cloud" from Cross Platform app development. Everything but vanilla Apache Cordova (Intel App Framework / AppMobi, PhoneGap, Xamrian) insist on compiling your cod

Regardless of the actual product, I can't help but think the $495 dollars he spent purchasing a domain name would have been better spent by picking an available domain name (..what $20) and putting the other $475 into Google Adwords ,

Either way, it's called "Boolean Logic" and as far as I knew every Computer Scientist had to take this class in college...Not sure how you could get a job as a programmer without understanding that...

Definitely not "Ridiculously false". I've lived in the midwest most of my life. You can live ~1 hour within a major metropolitan area (minus chicago) and rent an apartment for $500-$800 a month. $10 / hour is $20,800 a y

I'd like to point out that this story takes place in one of the highest cost of living areas in the country. $10 / hour goes a lot further in Kansas than it does D.C. I think a lot of people could live OK in the Midwest on $10 &#x

The fact that so many of these online services are basically using The Echo Nest to build their "music discovery" engines (aka their radio option) is a bit unnerving. What's there to differentiate them if they all use the sam

It's not that ideas are worthless, more like ideas are like assholes, everyone has one. Ideas are cheap, execution, implementation and "finish" is hard.

How complicated of a config are we talking here? Did you spend like 2 weeks hunting around for a correct Nginx + WordPress config or was it more like "apt-get install nginx php5" ? I think Wordpress is big and bloated, but it sure

Aye, I love my Nook HD+. Works great with Cyanogenmod. Too bad they crippled the software so much in its default configuration (in the beginning anyway, better today...too late). Put vanilla Android on there with a high quality e-reader app

I would wager money that there are just as many FBI agents who to this day are disgusted by what the idiots at the Portland Field Office of the FBI did to this guy.

As I understand it, yes your basically correct. Imagine a function like this: def init_prng(int x): state = x def prng(): state = md5(state) return state So while this is a good, simple PRNG its very recoverable if yo

So I think the most up-voted response does a great job of explaining the "why it matters" part of the question, but he never really touched on the "whats the difference"... IE the fact the pseudo-random basically means g

The Constitution specifically states "unreasonable search and seizures". I did not say it should be easy for the FBI to collect. I specifically was referring to "reasonable". Again, if you were tasked with collecting thi

I used the Android NDK extensively for an app I wrote recently. The main reasons were for cross compatibility (future iOS port) and because a 3rd party library I needed was written in C. If your new to the world of C/C++..then maybe it

I understand people who have an issue with the "grab everything" mentality. But, from a technology point of view, how else do you do it? Imagine your the FBI IT guy. How long do you think it would take YOU to walk into an unknown

I would agree with with the author in gnenral. Django is very powerful, but it can be painful, simply for the mental capacity required to get up and running with it. Sure after you spend a few (at least) hours wrapping your head around ever
