Different rules have different punishments. It's in the nature of rules. I very much doubt that anyone at Hacker School has been kicked out for feigning surprise.

While Resig's dedication is admirable, I'd caution against applying his advice too broadly. He is doing it because he has side projects that he wants to complete. There's no reason to force yourself to code every day for codi

Really, the hard part about writing an emulator is getting the documentation on the system you are trying to emulate. What console are you trying to write an emulator for?

Maybe I'm just a psychopath, but after reading your comment, reading through the article, and getting to the picture at the end, I couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of it. It just looks incredibly fake, like something you&#

I may be wrong, but I think that your credentials with a site are only vulnerable if they had the heartbeats extension turned on.

What? Every mailing list I've ever subscribed to has the original sender in the "From" field and the mailing list address in the "To" field. Otherwise how would you know who sent the message to the list?

It sounds like you're not familiar with Amazon Fresh (understandable given that it's currently only available in 3 cities in the US). You don't have to use this device to buy groceries from Amazon Fresh. You can just use thei

Of course we won't starve, but just having enough food to go around is a pretty low bar for a society in which people can live comfortably. The working classes in the developing world today generally don't starve, but no one would

So they're homophobes because they donated to Republican candidates? Are we seriously doing this now? Just because you donate to a political candidate doesn't mean you agree with his/her positions on everything. I doubt many

This probably differs from school-to-school. At my school most engineering majors had senior projects or capstone classes in which you had to apply the things you learned to produce working products.

Employers rightly think so. There's a lot more to engineering than being good at math and problem solving. The "other stuff" that Bahamut so flippantly dismisses as easily self-taught involves a lot of domain knowledge and be

Fancy private schools with lots of Ivy have pretty good financial aid. If your family has a relatively low income level it might even be cheaper to attend an Ivy league university than a state university.

That's not really what FPGAs are good for. Unless you are using a really high-end FPGA (read: >$10,000/unit), the raw compute power is not going to beat a decent gaming GPU. The benefit of FPGAs is that you get very precise tim

The DE1-SoC board is $199 or $150 with a student discount. http://www.terasic.com.tw/cgi-bin/page/archive.pl?Language=E... It has an ARM processor on the same chip as the FPGA, which I've found to be incredib

From the article, it seems that the problem is on the iOS side, not the PC side. Having a converter doesn't change the protocol you have to speak on the device itself.

According to the original Newsweek article, Dorian S. Nakamoto is not Japanese, but Japanese-American. He has lived in the US since age 10. But actually, what makes you say the creator of Bitcoin ("the real Satoshi") is not Japane
