You get those things in the event log, or via the minidump. But the vast majority of Windows users will never bother to figure out the cause of a BSOD your (or my) way, so restarting immediately is actually more helpful for spurious issues.

In Latin script you do. Most programming languages I know are not in Hebrew. And even then the LHS would be first in reading order, I'd assume.

> it always freezes FWIW, VS freezes for me come mostly from Resharper. I'm still debating whether the small productivity gain is worth it. Pretty much the only thing I'm really missing without Resharper is the smart completion

Or have those file formats been designed around having to parse them in a C program?

WPF predates generics in.NET or at least ost of the WPF APIs were stable and finished before generics were there and retrofitting generics wasn't done for some reason or another.

First of all, just being open-source doesn't make Windows Forms or WPF cross-platform and in fact, that's specifically not the goal or focus here. Secondly, Paint.NET includes quite a bit of non-WinForms/WPF code by now, talk

You haven't taken a look at WPF then, I guess?

They have to survive the launch through the thicker part of the atmosphere, yet still be light enough to not eat into the payload much. Made from aluminium honeycomb and carbon fiber mostly, if I remember correctly. But those things are qui

Is that at the game's discretion where to run the physics code or does that selection between GPU and CPU in the NVidia control panel actually work?

Of the languages i know, C++ and C# come to mind. Granted, in C++ the differences are fairly minor and inconsequential at runtime.

Well, this is personal preference and aesthetics, so I'm not sure others would have to follow. Palatino is nice, though and has a package where it's also the math font (mathpazo). That was as far as I got with fonts for plain old

If this is merely an input method then MathML is pretty much all you probably need as it can be pasted into or consumed by most applications handling math, including Word. Plus TeX for, well, TeX. This format is mostly geared towards input

Cambria. Personally I don't like it much, although I don't hate it as much as Computer Modern or Times. The main reason here is most likely that Cambria is also Microsoft's primary math typeface and having the body text and

It should also be noted that Murray Sargent didn't just do whatever he thought of. He has done at least one math layout engine before, consulted with Donald Knuth regarding TeX and some choices that were made back then and a lot of the

Also with a quite expensive hashing algorithm since ideally the password wouldn't be just stored as unsalted MD5.

I'd guess felt-tip pen and watercolour. Not a particularly exciting framework, to be fair, but works really well.

I thought the same, although such a filter would be intended to help out unknowing users who might give their password to a stranger. People who use passphrases may know enough to not do that in the first place. It could however in general

Encrypting passwords isn't really much better, though, is it? It's still reversible as there has to be a key somewhere.

by ygra 8y ago
Well, you can work your way up with ever increasing levels of safety by adding first MD5, then moving to SHA-1, then adding a salt, and eventually something sensible like bcrypt. That's four more press releases right there :-)

QR codes printed on thermal paper also fade over the course of a year and would be unreadable. There are always uncorrectable adverse conditions.

Falcon 9 doesn't have parachutes as far as I know. The fairings do, but not the first stage.

It eats into the payload, of course. That's why they have different landing trajectories (RTLS, barge in the ocean) and sometimes don't land at all, depending on the payload mass. The propellant itself doesn't cost much (Elon

For 300 ml there are measuring cups that have a scale on the side. Same for 250 ml by the way. Incidentally, I wouldn't be sure I could actually measure 1⅕ cups of anything (under your assumption that a cup is exactly 250 ml (Do I fill

My cupboard has cups in all kinds of sizes. Which one is the right one to use as a measurement? And for baking there's quite a big difference if my cups are 150 ml or 350 ml, especially when paired with counted ingredients like eggs. T

You should definitely give WPF a try. At least for me Windows Forms is way less productive and nice.
