I think that would be true if you waited an hour for your next drink. However you're more than likely to have another glass of wine < 54mins, hence stock piling future booze in the pipe and making you more drunk than perhaps you&#x2

I often wonder how quickly Valve would have abandoned that handbook if they didn't receive the guaranteed revenue stream from Steam.

I could not agree more with you. You would never write a class like that for a skinning system, it's full of bloat and template guff. Also at some point you're going to have to promote this to the GPU, at that point the original c

I've often wondered why login systems don't simply rely on the same system they use for password recovery. Instead of logging in with a username and password, why not request a login token that is emailed to me. I then use that li

I do wonder why GitHub gets hit, and people say it's a high profile target, yes almost definitely. Another thought occurs to me though, I guess one of the problems when writing a DDoS is measuring how well it performs. The GitHub statu

There are legal firms in the city who will review your contract for IR35 compliance. If you don't know what you're looking for I highly recommend using them. Do not be afraid of amending a contract and pushing back on the client.

Of course it's deliberate, it's part of Google's ongoing business model of ring fencing the internet. People tell you not to run your own mail server as it's a nightmare to keep on top of all the security aspects, and ye

Wonder why they don't add an average weight to the time rather than this troublesome extra second.

Resources blowing the memory was a common problem on the PS1. A common trick was to bake the resources into the exe. I worked on a game where the final disc was a directory of 25 exe's. Each exe was a level, even the front end was a se

How about I have something on my phone that verifies I'm connected to an authentic provider tower, and not connect to anything else. Another thing to think about, if it's happening in the UK, it's probably happening in your o

Ah sorry, I was interested in what broker you use for market connectivity. Also, are you able to detail where you source your market data from? Sounds like a really interesting setup I'd love to know more about it.

Would you mind detailing the platform/portal that you use?

I was reading some of the enhancement requests Navinder asked his broker firm to build into his trading application. Here's a quote from the FT. "He said he would “like to be able to alternate the closeness ie one price away or th

Not sure I add much worth to the view portrayed by this article. However, as you progress in your career become a specialist in a particular field. Avoid becoming a general programmer. So far I've had two programming careers, the first

You're quite right. He didn't leave finance, you often see traders leave banks and set up broker houses or hedge funds. Same stuff, different building.

I think the theory is that you need to distract a certain part of your brain if you want to get on with a task that requires a degree of concentration. Dance/trance works pretty well for this (for most people). After all music is just

The first time I saw this kind of thing was watching Notch on the Ludum Dare challenge. I don't really see it as a way to learn much about programming, it's more entertaining and a fascinating insight into how other people work. F

Really nice, noticed a few jitter issues on the bridge example, that's possibly one of the hardest thing to do in a physics engine (that and fast moving objects).

I couldn't work out from the article if you could run Facebook on your own servers or not. This will be a massive hurdle to jump if they really want to sell to enterprise.

I never tried these guys as their pricing seemed too good to be true. https://hubic.com/ Maybe someone can comment if they've used them in anger.
