That's right, a 72 year old woman decided that she'll be a terrorist earlier this week. That old hag will be what the martyars will be fighting over in their afterlife.
Sorry for the inaccuracy. I haven't actually used Autopilot myself, because my wife won't let me drive her Tesla. But I did watch her use it from the passenger seat. It is very impressive.
It doesn't sound like she's exactly 'driving' it either, at least not since the Autopilot update.
Why doesn't this happen to Halley's Comet? It gets perturbed by the gravity from the gas giants, yet has managed to retain a period of 74-79 years since 240 BC. That's a lot of trips through the solar system. Because it's a short period comet, it spends more time around the gas giants than a long period comet. That should subject it to more gravitational perturbations, but it's still remained very periodic. Why is that?
Luck, mostly. An object will either be expelled or gravitationally (tidally) torn apart by the sun after a few trips around the solar system, with an exponential distribution describing how many trips it makes. As with all exponential distributions, the curve flattens out to the right, and if any particular object has just the right orbital parameters to make i.e. 10 or 20 or 50 passes, then it's pretty much fallen (by luck) into the sweet spot of orbital resonances to keep making more passes. The chances are astronomically low that any particular object will have this luck, but there is a huge number of objects out there, so some do beat the odds.
Halley's comet is simply one of the few that beat the odds.
Is this a problem of WordPress, or just a popular CMS? If the admins aren't doing their job for WordPress, why would they start doing it for some other package?
Because for most websites, I've got to pentest from tens of IP addresses to find your vulnerabilities. There is a minimum bar for cracking your site. But if you're running Wordpress I can look at your meta tags and know wxactly which exploits will work and what I will get out of them. Even better, I can use DuckDuckGo to find your site and tens of thousands like it, all with doors wide open.
The difference between Wordpress and a well-built site is the difference between the corner prostitute and Melinda Gates. Somebody will be fucking both of them, but one is available for all to come and do as they please, while the other requires just the right special touch and quite a bit of luck and patience.
Right. However, Quickbooks is the de facto standard in the industry and the client was not about to be a revolutionary for no personal gain. People who work in the financial industry are very, very conservative (and stingy with their money).
99% of software out there is still single threaded. that makes a old pentium 4 single core running at 4GHZ will beat the hell out of a i7 3ghz 8 core processor brutally if that i7 has hyperthreading turned on essentially cutting the processor speeds in 1/2 to emulate more cores.
To make this clear: last year I wrote Python-based system to interface with Intuit Quickbooks, which the client was running on a 3.4 Ghz dual-core something. He asked what he could do to improve performance as we really were pushing the limit of that poor machine, I told him to get the fastest clock speed processor that he could as Quickbooks is single-threaded, even when in Multi-User mode or whatever they called it. So the expert at the computer shop convinces the client to buy an octocore 2.8 Ghz something (numbers pulled out of ass for example only) which absolutely tanked performance.
Tools are tools and the best tool for somebody else's job might not be the best tool for _your_ job. Processors or any other complex component cannot be judged on a single merit alone. See how consumers buy their cameras based on megapixel count for example.
I think that the real reason that so many people want to see per-tab CPU use is due to Firefox freezing so often. Another poster above posted this link, which seems to resolve the issue partially: https://helgeklein.com/blog/20...
This gang culture arose over the last two decades, as rap music and hip hop music which glorifies a criminal, degenerate lifestyle became more popular... By associating with a culture that's first and foremost known for its criminality, these youth are going out of their way to make themselves targets of the police.
Thank you for being brave enough to post this. It seems that people do not understand that the popular media that we encourage today will be reflected in the youth of tomorrow.
What exactly happens to a poor family that gets pregnant a second time and cannot pay the tax? A forced abortion? Is the child taken away? Jail or eternal debt for the family?
Actually, my comment was based upon a quote from Leonardo himself, in which he stated that he simply removed everything that wasn't elephant. It was my way of agreeing with the OP even if his argument sounds ridiculous.
Challenge accepted...am I limited to the caliber of ammunition I can use, or is it unrestricted?
The screen is "guaranteed not to crack or shatter." There is a difference between "the screen cracking" and "JustAnotherOldGuy cracking the screen".
It's like the difference between dying and being murdered: this screen is guaranteed not to spontaneously crack, but if _you_ crack it (drop, bend, touch too forcefully with your finger) then the guarantee is not valid.
Helium also has two neutrons, while hydrogen has none, so you do need four particles - two protons that stay protons, and two that become neutrons by absorbing an electron - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/....
And my first thought on this was the same thing. Random mutation is long-term. But when a selection event happens, the "hidden" trait isn't created, but selected for.
Based on that logic, the elephant statue was already in the marble block before Leonardo began carving, and he just removed everything that wasn't elephant.
Slashdot Mirror
Did the rest of the world suddenly get dumb?
That's what happens when you're in hypersleep for 57 years.
It's like my only value as a person in a capitalist, consumerist society is to buy shit, any shit, just buy stuff.
Capitalist: from the root "capital", i.e. money. Or did you think "capitalist society" is a society other than one which is driven by money?
Good thing I use Firefox instead of Chrome.
Good thing I use Windows Phone instead of Android.
The more infidels they kill the moslems are being told that their 'allah' will reward them with more virgins
The scriptures have been misinterpreted all along! The martyars will not get 72 virgins, they will get a 72 year old woman:

You mean the garbage they keep adding, like pocket?
I specifically claim to mention this. Removing Pocket should be the first thing on their list.
It's a reference to this Ken Thompson quote.

If you had a magic wand to make one change in technology right now, what would it be?
I wager that he would have creat spelled with an 'e'.
So how was she? All the time and patience worth it?
Ask Bill. He always gets the girl!
Oh, and the Space Shuttle wasn't reusable, it was rebuildable.
This is the best way of describing STS that I've ever seen. Not STS as it was designed, but rather STS as it was in practice.
And that was part of the problem: the orbiters were not designed to be disassembled as had to be done.

That is for memory use, not CPU use.

I like to hang out at Area 15. Less security and you glimpse an occasional dyslexic alien.
The alien writing system is Right to Left, that is why they get confused:
http://dotancohen.com/howto/rt...
This is also why ancient writing systems such as Hebrew are Right to Left, they learned it from the aliens (who built the pyramids).
I really hate the fact that the name of the dominant OS is "Android". This is going to be really confusing once we start building real androids.
I'm waiting for IoT FleshLight running the Android fork Gynodriod.
Forced abortion seems to be one of the ways they enforce the law (though probably not so publicly): http://mobile.nytimes.com/2012...
I understand that to be an isolated incident. Horrible, no doubt, but hardly the 'regular' action taken. I'm asking what the usual, regular action is.

Oh, I'm sure. But not really, really sure.
