Uh, did you watch any of the track events? In the preliminary rounds, the winners (1st, 2nd, sometimes 3rd and 4th) of each heat go to the next round, along with the next fastest times from all the heats. Thus, accurate timing is vital.
I can't exactly say I'm extremely experienced, but I do actually work in the games industry and I've never encountered this strange divide between programmers and graphics artists.Programmers should be given a task to implement and then left to go and do it. They might design a way TO implement that task, but even this isn't ideal and is the kind of thing the development lead should be doing.The graphics artists, likewise, should be given tasks to accomplish with strict limits (i.e. "I want a big red barn with a slightly curved roof that's no more than 800 triangles") that should be set and maintained by the graphics lead.Then all that's left is the design of the game itself, which comes down to whoever is the lead designer who is the real middleman between the programmers and the artists.He's the one that sits down and outlines exactly what it is he wants to achieve, the Programmer lead will tell him what is and isn't possible from a technical level and the graphics artist will tell him just how closely his vision can be matched. There really is no need for this "technical artist" and I can only imagine his role being somewhat counterproductive as the whole game relies on him having a good understanding of technical limitations AND artistry limitations, which is unlikely. He may have a basic understanding of both, or even an advanced understanding of one, but few people can master both fields.Then again, it can't be any worse than Valve's "lets let everyone have a say and spend months debating which is best" approach and they tend to get good results.
Your regexp example isn't awfully good - any language that has regexp support will have lines like that. These days, PHP has regexp support (possibly always has), C has regexp support, C++ has it, Java has it, and I expect that even C# has regexp libraries.The alternative to a regular expression is usually a very convoluted parser that's a lot of effort to support.
I friggin love this site. And here's about as cheap as you're gonna get. Though it won't exactly test your landlines.http://www.electronickits.com/kit/complete/fibe/ck1500.htm
If the remote server only offers FTP, there's no way to ensure no hops are done in cleartext.Personally, I'd mount the remote FTP site to a local drive using WebDrive for Windows or something similar for Linux (SSHFS does not do vanilla FTP, although I'm sure there's a tool that does if you look around) and then install TrueCrypt or some other file based encrypted filesystem.That way you can mount an encrypted remote file system on the remote site and sync it using rsync or any other garden variety file syn
So far as I understand TFA, the claims of artificial photosynthesis aren't well founded - what they have actually done is to use manganese as a catalyst to improve the efficiency of electrolytic hydrogen generation.That's good, but the fact that they used manganese doesn't mean it's photosynthesis just because chlorophyll also happens to have manganese in it.It's just a fancy catalyst in this implementation.

Learn how to work 'equivs' - then you get your nifty metapackage that "provides" kdegames, which tricks "kde" into staying installed.Equivs was made specifically to fix this "issue".
Lol, why does everything have to be for the porn industry. It couldn't possibly have been because it'd be useful for any other group that uses large numbers of photos... Just about any photographer would find it userful... whether it's a wedding or a fashion or a sports photographer. I'm not attacking you personally, there are just so many insane, "well this format won because the porn people picked it" type urban legends that it gets a bit ridiculous after a while.
It is in the same vein as handing civics books to victims of a dictatorship and asking them to act like democrats. Some folks just don't look at the big picture.
Prrffft. Until you get that set up strung together with decent platinum coated directionally lubricated CAT-5e you can't possibly truly appreciate anything.
There are a number of problems with a transponder.1) There's no identity attached to a transponder, except for a 4 digit code you can set yourself. (is that plane 5 miles directly behind you a little 90 MPH Cessna 150 or 250 MPH Turbine?)2) They only are useful to ATC. If you're not flying under ATC control, (perfectly legal!) or haven't contacted ATC yet for whatever reason, (such as opening a friggen flight plan) you don't know about the Turbine 5 miles directly behind you closing in at 150 MPH.3) They us
A relevant 1st post?You must be new here.Seriously though, I wonder if this genetic defect correlates with any genetic traits that make kids more likely to enter politics?I.e. Just like Dyslexic persons are usually able to see patterns and correlations that mis others, perhaps these none learners have that extra arrogance which says "a million strangers will choose me over you".
you could try to get an internship through an international organization called IAESTE. They have organizations set up in over 80 countries around the world to do internships abroad. Go to www.iaeste.org (or more specifically http://www.iaeste.org/network/index.html ) and choose your country of residence to see if your country has a chapter. If they do, you should be able to provide you with the necessary information about applying for an internship through them. You can also get information thru the IAESTE-US website: http://www.iaesteunitedstates.org/
.. let me say hooray! PHP5 is worlds ahead.
Let me also say they're wrong about legacy systems being slow to migrate: PHP5 runs PHP4 code just fine (notwithstanding a few copy-on-write and unassigned reference issues, which are very easy to fix).
PHP5, in this context, would be better called "Zend Engine 2", since that's what the real update is. PHP4 the language is essentially just a subset of PHP5.
Incidentally (perhaps) the phpMyAdmin 3.0.0 beta just came out yesterday which sacrifices Zend Engine 1 (PHP4) support. It also drops MySQL 4 support, and I think lots of projects will follow suit; PHP4 is going to drag MySQL 4 with it, which is also great.
Anyway, any place that looks at those certifications is likely to eat up anything you tell them anyway, because they usually don't know any better. A place where they ask you technical questions usually won't care where you learned the stuff, as long as you know your ****. I prefer the later type of setting myself.
The odd thing about it, though, was that once I selected the flights that I wanted, I was able to go directly to the airline's website (Air Canada, in this case) and buy the tickets for cheaper than Expedia was offering.
The problem is this: When expedia et al first entered the market, there was a basic airline ticket offering. It was economy class, it let you check a bag, gave you some frequent flyer miles and might have given you a meal.Today, many of those offerings are a la carte offerings, presented in the airline's site, at time of ticket purchase. It's difficult for expedia to present all those options, so they usually present a baseline ticket price that includes 'most of what customers likely expect.' However, if you're willing to go absolutely bare-bones you can probably get a cheaper ticket at Air Canada's site. I bet if you compared apples to apples with identical options on the tickets, you'd find the prices the same.

Code is art, therefore art is code. There, fix'd it for you.

Why haven't I heard about your site until reading this on Slashdot five seconds ago?
Except that I don't think even the magic of stackless will give me the true multi-CPU concurrency that I want. :-(

There are none (or few, anyway) in the South Polar region of Enceladus. That's what makes it interesting, the terrain appears to be quite young.

Wow, I've never seen a reference to that book on Slashdot.Hmm I have a hardcover of that somewhere. Now I gotta read it again. Thanks!
