Of course the second email sounds better: it's an entirely different message. Email #1 says: "If you want to work from home, ask for permission with an explanation." Email #2 says: "If you want to work from home, let us know when." Email #1

I wish there were ido-style searching, where typing "slstr" would match "some long string". (Provided, of course, there were no other strings that were a closer match.)

What is the reasoning behind this? It sounds like this would encourage people to pirate more games. Perhaps now that it's free, they won't feel an obligation to provide support?

CSS works fine. (Try this one: https://raw.github.com/twitter/bootstrap/master/docs/index.h... ) I suspect that JS that didn't depend on the page-load to trigger it would work too. I had never considered looking at JS-enabled pages though.

This seems like a lot of code... Here's what I use: javascript:void(document.body.innerHTML = document.getElementsByTagName("pre")[0].innerHTML.replace(/&/g,"&").replace(/</g,"<").replace(/>/g,">").re

Very nice! I'd prefer to see the user's karma on the little popup though, rather than beside the link I clicked.

Amber is A) a woman B) working in the tech world C) successful. Chromosomes have nothing to do with it. Obviously, you know that what you're saying is hateful or you wouldn't have created a burner account in order to post it.

His headset analogy is pretty accurate. It even goes one step further though: In China, some headsets have the mic and ground pin swapped. So before putting a signal on the mic line to see if it exists, you have to detect which pin is groun

Not really. You only need to space out the levels by a few ohms. Microphone impedances start around 500 ohms, so if you go higher than that, you can't distinguish between a button and a working mic.

by rcfox 14y ago
The linked answer is close, but not entirely correct. There isn't a specialized wire for buttons; it uses the microphone line. Play/pause will usually be connected directly to ground. The other functions connect to ground through different

Sure, you can spend your time looking for ways to blame other people. Or, you could just go back to getting stuff done.

In that case, you can be pretty certain that you need a signed integer.

Unsigned integer overflow has defined behaviour in C, while signed overflow doesn't. Is it really better to protect people from a simple logical error by exposing them to possible undefined behaviour? With signed integers, you'll run into t
