Also note that when Google complies with these court orders they do so only within the jurisdiction of the court order, so in this case anyone within India will not receive these search results, but will instead see a message that some results have been removed due to court order.
Google translate makes a rather nice proxy if you are behind a filter and don't want to bother with a better proxy. It's a commonly known trick, I'm sure Google doesn't appreciate it though.
If you think the Taliban does not have an internet presence you are sorely mistaken. While I doubt the coalition troops are in any danger from these documents, I do think there are a good number of villages that are in danger of reprisal attacks by the Taliban if they were to see the full documents. What better way to find the right targets than to read the nicely formatted official reports of your enemy?
These military actions have been mishandled from the start and at this point every time we make a friend and try to help someone out we are just painting a target on their back. The situation is complex, I'm not sure a good outcome is possible at this point, just pulling all the troops out will result in thousands of deaths due to our inaction and staying there is just prolonging the inevitable.
Part of the competition was to use Canvas tags in interesting ways, and considering IE9 doesn't even support Canvas I think you're out of luck unless you get a standards compliant browser.
I agree completely my first language was QBASIC and I didn't bring any of that with me, but I could still go back and do it just fine. That said if I were to teach someone how to program now I would probably use javascript.
I did something similar working as a CS tutor at community college when I was 17ish, the people I was tutoring really were idiots, but I did learn a lot about effective teaching. Just because I realized they were idiots did not mean I treated them poorly, I treated them as though they were capable of understanding the material and tailored my tutoring to their specific problems. It's not a superiority complex when it's just the truth.
I did what the article is describing on my own. I took a state exam that allowed me to enter community college instead of continuing with highschool for my last two years. I don't think I was ready for university, but community college was just fine and I was able to get a considerable amount of coursework done before I continued on to university, also it gave me a better understanding of what exactly I wanted to do in university. When I entered university I feel I was better prepared than those that had just come from a highschool and I was able to enter an honors program that allowed me to do undergraduate research. I think that this stairstepped progression is a good idea because the transitions are more gradual than the usual highschool to university transition.
Non Sequitur gets a pass on the running out of material problem because it's not necessarily following a set of characters, it's really just a space for the artist to draw whatever he wants. Definitely something that is more commonly found in webcomics.

Seriously, why would they use a guy like him for a two line character.
Actually this sounds like fun to me, I get bored with running pretty quickly and I could see some sort of treadmill game being a good way of helping with that. Especially if it's not just about the running as in this case.
I had a compound bow at the age of 7 and was using it without supervision within 6 months. At no point between the age of 7 and now have I ever used a projectile weapon irresponsibly. I think it is completely possible for this 11 year old to be responsible enough to own and use a cannon. Do I think this is the norm? No not at all, I didn't trust most of my friends to use my bow without supervision until I was maybe 12, but to just write this kid off because of your own irresponsibility is not fair.
If you ever get a chance to watch him present on Armadillo Aerospace you will understand why. This really is his baby now and he is really making sure that they build everything from the bottom up rather than trying to start at some mid point. The result of this is a very thorough knowledge of all of the systems, how to optimize them and their potential problems.
Good to see more NEAT stuff I worked on NERO while I was at UT. GAR looks pretty cool glad to see some of the ideas we discussed back then being put into action.
I saw Carmack give a talk a couple weeks ago and OpenGL came up in the Q&A session. Carmack's take on it was that OpenGL had not continued to be update to take advantage of newer technology and had therefore largely fallen into disuse, though he also said that the graphics code was not that large a portion of their codebase so they could fairly easily write OpenGL and Direct3D versions of their engines with minimal effort.

So do I!
Well it's a M9A1, but yep Steyr Model Ms are fantastic.

Nice try, but all of those came after International Practical Shooting Confederation.
They could have chosen the name better that acronym is fairly well known for something else...

I wonder if a bluetooth mouse could be used, maybe some sort of 10 key for the left hand and you would be set.

It looks like a South African rifle actually, so neither Warsaw Pact nor NATO.

No for that you need a Mountain Howitzer.

That would probably be a Sten.
The animation was smooth, the audio played without a hitch, it was great.
