Regarding primes, you'd be better off with this kind of list : http://primes.utm.edu/lists/small/small.html#50 than with the 1k smallest ones.

I'm not trolling, though. May be it's only bad luck. Shit happens, I know it as well as I know that shit can happen twice, and it seems that this just happened to me both with this new Microsoft homepage and with the then-new outlook. I don

Yeah, that's my point. I wanted to see their new oultook.com (I had seen screenshot, it was looking great), they fed me a bug. I wanted to see their new microsoft.com, they fed me a bug. Trying again gives me this : http://i.imgur.com/th3s

The new microsoft.com. I went through the hover menu and went for "See all products". Then instead of showing me the page I asked for, it asked me to sign up, with no way to go back. I went back and tried again. Impossible to access the pag

Not only you don't need an internet connection to get a GPS fix, but also iPhones geolocation data don't rely on GPS only. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assisted_GPS

No, I'm not. As I said, when acquiring geolocalization data on a mobile device, I have no way to decide if they're genuine or not. If you want a good excuse to just gtfo, come to Switzerland exchange business cards with me.

Reversely, paying 1$ in not much when you'll be travelling 25% of the world. In my very basic example it was 20 000$ payoff for travelling 25% of the world. Let's make it 1 000 000$. I'm still winning. Covering 25% of the world's surface is

In fact, I did came up with this idea one year ago. My idea was to cover the whole world with fog of war, and to make people team up to discover the world. There would be challenges, where you would pay like 0.50$ to participate, and then

Okay, so we can now do the "math" : 70 000 / (4 * 12 * 12) = 121.52 request per CPU

It says 12 datacenters distributed around the globe. I think we can safely assume each datacenter holds a dedicated load-balancing server. Let's assume they have only one of these at each datacenter, it gives us 70000 / (4 * 12) = 1460 requ

Exactly. What I really like when typing in the URL bar is that it looks for what I'm typing in my history, bookmarks, etc. This way my productivity when opening a website is greatly improved. By example, t opens a new tab (vimium), I then

I cannot answer your question -- I have no idea. (edited : well, why not for "customer service", along with the traditional FAQ ? Or use it instead of the useless "solve this problem" useless multiple choice walkthrough in Windows or such ?

You're right, they could turn up anywhere. Problem is, the alerts are shown in Dutch and German on my french-speaking Swiss blog. I don't think my readers, when coming across a 404 while looking for something, will read "Verdwenen op 2-jari

Sorry for the tone, didn't mean no harm neither. So we both aren't native speakers. I still don't think my tone was anything more than informative. ;) Sorry if I offended someone, though.

My first reaction when seeing this link here was "Yes, please !". Now that I read it, I'll try it. Feedburner having been dead for already a few days, as mentionned here, did help. [EDIT] Wait, what ? I want to sign up and it's talking ab

I think you missed something : the whole post is plain sarcasm. Maybe not obvious to you, but still.
