I don't know about the 6700k. I didn't mention the 6700k. The post I replied to claims Intel doesn't ship coolers. You appear to believe this.

Here are four distinct unboxing videos showing the Intel branded fan+heatsink emerging from the i7-6700 Intel sealed package. Case closed.

They also had the same problem of tracking the car exactly as they found that even the difference between front and back seats would cause nausea.

ASP is not a language, it's a framework.

Mmmm...I find that picture to be misleading. There are variants of the mini 14 that can do a lot of damage and are not for hunting anything but humans.

Size matters sure, but as is often the case it's what you do with you got that matters.

Given a situation where you would use an assault rifle (lots of people, relatively close range), you're going to do a lot more damage with a full auto Ruger mini 14 than with a Remington 700.

If you want speed, go for MongoDB. It doesn't use joins & it's webscale, plus it can even use /dev/nul as storage for ultra-high throughput.

For those who haven't seen it, the parent is (I think) referring to this very amusing video.

I've only written a couple of apps using it, but I found the syntax to be much more straight forward than either C++ or Objective C. It was pretty easy to pick up on.

The long-hand syntax is very similar to Pascal, with some slight changes to fit more closely in with modern languages. They've replaced BEGIN and END with {}'s, and instead of writing function/procedure, you simply write "func", just to name a few example. Pascal was used as a teaching language at universities back in the 80's until it was replaced by C/C++ in the 90's, and eventually Java more recently. I grew up programming Pascal. It was a wonderful language.

I've found a few excellent YouTube videos which helped ease me into using Swift. The first is the slightly long Swift Tutorial for Beginners, where the guy covers all the changes you'd notice when coming from another programming language.
Another is the Developing iOS 8 Apps with Swift, done by Stanford University.

I've been using Swift for a few months now, and I think it's brilliant. Once you know the long-hand version of some of the syntactic sugar they've added, it becomes trivial to develop in. That being said, I find Apple documentation to be about as bad as Oracle's and Microsoft's. The language is easy, the toolkit libraries are vast and sometimes hard to decipher. In addition, being so new it's hard to find good help for specific problems, as most of the answers are in Objective-C.

Everything that goes on in your body is genetics, especially ageing. Why do some animals live nearly forever like molerats? It isn't their diet that's for sure. In fact SENS is working on moving Mitochondrial DNA into the nucleus cause the nucleus is very good at repairing DNA damage and protecting it compared to the Mitochondria. According to SENS, this is something nature was already in the middle of doing and they're just trying to complete the task.

So yes, Metochondrial DNA damage does cause ageing. Therefore DNA is very important part of ageing. Besides the fact that everything in the human body is in one way or another controlled by DNA, including ageing.

Yeah! Who wants freedom from colonial rule when you can sacrifice Liberty at the alter of convenience?

NYC is infamous for things like cops running out into the street and attacking cyclists, or parking their cruisers in bike lanes and then ticketing cyclists for not riding in the bike lane.

Despite the public outcry and idiocy of that, were up to the same thing the next year.

And then the year after that...

Thanks for raising these concerns.

Despite having studied physics (inverse-square law) and electrical engineering (though I wasn't the best student), I am concerned by how readily and glibly folks dismiss concerns about possible health effects of EMFs. The fact is, there's a lot we don't know about our own biology, and heating effects and ionizing radiation aren't necessarily the only possible modes by which EMFs could harm us.

This documentary, while suffering from some poor production values, presents the hypothesis of some researchers (whose CVs I have not examined) that round-the-clock EMF exposure reduces the body's natural production of melatonin, a potent anti-oxidant and regulatory hormone, since the body doesn't distinguish between visible light and RF radiation. This reduced melatonin production allegedly can lead to a reduction in the body's ability to fight cancer growth.

Time will tell but, as you say, we're performing a large-scale experiment on ourselves.

This has been done before.

AI is an extension of human intelligence in the same way a telescope is an extension of human vision. The IBM Jeopardy stunt still blows me away, "self taught" open ended trivia is a far more impressive feat than Deep Blue.

They are adapting, but aviation is much like a government department and only marginally better than fusion. Everything takes longer.

I'm not sure it makes environmental sense to force people to scrap old engines. I somehow think it would be better for the environment and the people who live in it not to crap quite that much perfectly fine machinery as waste, especially since it's not the engine that's the problem. I think the estimates for engine conversions are between $30-50k and the problem is the people who own these planes are the people least likely to afford the replacement engines (small business owners, tour flights, tiny charters, farmers, etc).

You also have to remember that we didn't tell everyone else to adapt by buying a new car. We gave them the alternative. That's what's being worked on here, it just takes for fucking ever to approve a fuel for use in aviation. Fun fact: Kerosene drawn off a crude distillation unit and run through a merox process is identical in all the regulated specifications to kerosene drawn off a fractionation column after hydrocracking and then run through a merox process, but for some reason the latter is not permitted to be used to make Jet-A1.

Airline fuels are in a world of their own. Also a lot of fuel regulations come down to where we are polluting, not how much. Kind of like how we need to ensure diesel is less than 10ppm sulphur in many western countries, however we can put up to 2500ppm into Jet-A1 providing we oxidise the mercaptains out of it so it doesn't smell bad. It reminds me about a satirical sketch by Clarke and Dawe about an boat leaking oil: https://www.youtube.com/watch?... "The ship was towed outside the environment"

Aviation is much like shipping in that regard.

It all sounds so easy... yet you clearly are not aware of the case law that supports the current system... something the Second Amendment protects.

If you were serious... there is a way to How to Create a Gun-Free America in 5 Easy Steps... though I don't think you'd like the all too predictable result.

John Oliver delivered an excellent treatment of this topic that is both informative and entertaining (and maddening). It's worth a watch.

So far the USA is averaging more than one mass-shooting (involving 4 or more people) per day this year. Ever wondered how non-US people view US gun culture? Here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Apparently Master Locks didn't used to be this bad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Guess that head of industry just wanted to have more profits so they cut corners until the insides are just "soft marshmallows."

This a new lock:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?... [youtube.com]

Wow that is so cool. But most doors on residences are not build to security specifications. If these locks become common and cheap the crooks will simply attack the door itself with, say a crowbar.

Yes, but attacking the door itself is obvious, and NOISY.

Something like a bump key attack is nearly silent.

I still don't understand how 3D Nand works or why it's so much cheaper but I'm glad it exists.

Why, you know, your bits can just Get Perpendicular!

(Actually, 3D Nand doesn't work this way at all. But this Hitachi video still has to go down as one of the most entertaining and ridiculous explanations of new ways to cram bits in. It's common to do stuff like this today, I suppose, but in 2005, this kind of video release was pretty awesome.)

Is this really a dig at religion? I've seen far more idiotic expressions in powerpoints from the boys over in marketing. Now spiritual practitioners who really know the field of their own game (such as Alan Watts, for instance) -- they celebrate nonsense. Scientists who have any grain of self-awareness get this too: is there any sillier proposition than, "everything originated in a Bang?" Or this one: "space was made and is perpetuated by quantum entanglement." Once you get this, you realize what a vast difference there is between nonsense and bullshit.

If nonsense wasn't so enchanting, we wouldn't have been blessed with the Turbo Encabulator.

I have actually watched a lot of videos by bosnianbill and I'm not even remotely surprised by the outcome of this.

Cheap locks are weak, expensive locks may result in delaying the intruders enough to make it inconvenient to make entry and pick easier alternatives. If they really want to break in then they don't care about a lock anymore but take down the wall instead.

I have concluded that the weakest lock to be considered are the ABUS Granit series of locks, and that the alternatives are Abloy and Anchor.

You'd think Master Lock with all their cash would come up with clever ideas like this lock's mechanism.

To come up with a new mechanism would imply that the old mechanisms aren't all that good, and they will never admit that. It could lead to a major class action suite. In the US, the only option for any corporation is to just pretend that there's no issue, and continue to sell the same old shit. Until someone comes along and forces the issue, like this guy.

I'm sorry, but your denial is just as bad as Holocaust denial.

Oh, and if we're talking about how these obviously sub-human Arabic people speak their true feelings only in Arabic (that obviously nobody civilized can understand), then you should look at Russian-language Jewish émigrée forums. Phrases like "painted monkeys" or "just shoot them all" and "perhaps genocide is not such a bad idea" are quite common.

What makes you think elemental lithium is any safer than elemental sodium? Pro-tip: it isn't.

That depends on how you're measuring "safer". For example, sodium is more reactive than lithium in water.
