Yeah, but as the Wikipedia article states: not even diamond is strong enough. So don't hold your breath.

I think it is mathematically proven that that's a sphere. Once something is mathematically proven there won't be anything ever that invalidates this. Also: Imagine any shape. Now imagine to inflate it. What shape will it more an

I wonder what would have happened if a Vacuum airship would have had a similar accident. Meaning a hull breach at a 200m (650ft) altitude. No fire, just a bit of a drop. Maybe shrapnel? Well, I guess it would drop much faster.

There it's two records in two banks (in the general case) for each transaction. The sum must check out to be zero. And beside that there are laws that are enforced because it is not legal to create money out of thin air. Ok, it is done

I think this is a bogus argument. Maybe it somewhat works for this particular case, I does not work in general for such activities. Also what's he gonna do with the money? Probably buy something on Amazon or Steam or go on vacation to

It's about providing value to other people. If you write a software that is really used for something you provided a service. If that service is worth 100,000€/year then so be it. But he just gained money from the misjudgement of

Yes, but these items are basically only flags in a DB under the power of Blizzard. It's not real in the sense that Blizzard could just enter whatever values they want in this DB and it would be perfectly legal. Conspiracy theory: Maybe

One might want to add: There are not "native" controls under X11 (and I guess also Wayland). There Qt is as native as any other toolkit.

I only down vote when something is demonstrably wrong or offensive. I thought that's how everyone is doing it, so I wondered what could I have written that was wrong or offensive?

Ah yes, that's probably true. I meant because of the higher frame rate.

Why did I got down voted for that? It's true. Proof: http://www.crackajack.de/2014/08/04/visual-microphone-audio-...

So maybe the only option would be The Hobbit?

I had the exact same idea.

But if there really is live down there, how do you then explain to them that you just dropped some nuclear waste into their ocean?

Yeah, in other languages you don't use "preventDefault" but e.g. "acceptProposedAction". So they could have added such an method to the event object. I guess it's a bit of a quick fix thing why Microsoft didn&#

The problem was that SQL is a giant standard that nobody implements really correctly and it would blow up the HTML5 standard enormously. Also I don't think there is anything wrong with an async-only API that does potentially do disk ac

Subset? Isn't it more like a super set? IE6 (and above) has no files array that can be read with a FileReader and it only supports the types "Text" and "URL", no support for proper mime types.

About prevent default: You need to tell the browser that this element will handle the drop/has handled the drop, or it will perform its default operation. What is it's default operation? To load the file/URL that you just h

Indeed. I also implemented it by hand once and once I did a bit of event throttling (which jQuery also does) it worked smoothly enough even on a very old Android 3 tablet (in Firefox). And the dragged element has opacity!

It's possible with document.getElementById("something") even for very old browsers.

One can argue it isn't "no instructions". The symbols have colors and arrows. How much more do you want? Someone that can't figure out how it works from that won't get very far anyway.

If you count that than so can C/C++/Objective C (via pointers/references). But I like to use tuples and destructuring of tuples more (syntax wise).

> multiple returns, closures, etc What other new(ish) language in this day and age does not support this? You have closures in e.g. Haskell, Java, C#, Rust, C++, JavaScript, Python and Ruby. You have destructuring/unpacking support

I'm a noob concerning all of this, but how would it be different to MADV_DONTFORK? Or why can't MADV_DONTFORK be used for the same task?

Yes, I even mentioned that.

Yeah, depending on the image putting a bmp into a zip is actually significantly smaller than a png. Well, bmp has no alpha channel, but just as comment to the size of pngs. pngs even uses the zip algorithm in a way that is supposed to be op
