Shouldn't the title say "Veterinarians Use Google Translate While Delivering Baby"?
This is stupid for at least two reasons. The first reason you know well, and this is why you hide behind an AC. The second reason is because Google Translate only translates to human languages and even though, in a different story, the subject would be an animal, instead of a Woman as it is in TFS/TFA, G.T. would be of no use.
I have a few friends in Europe on facebook. Unfortunately, facebook defaults to bing for translations, and bing's translations are pretty poor.
Facebook favors Bing over Google for the wrong reasons.
The google translations are a lot better, but I found out that if I go from, say french to arabic to english, instead of directly from french to english, the idioms seem to be translated better
Try English => Japanese => English, you'll be surprised....
On the other hand, what makes Java powerful compared to C/C++ is its optimizer. Provided that, among other things, there's no [directly accessible/modifiable] pointer in Java, the compiler gets much more room for deep and complex optimization.
Well, should have added to my rant some fair positiveness: as it's been said on this page, whenever something is a bit exotic and other players cough to death, usually VLC manages to read the file and show something. That's ok. And thank you for that. But, seriously, the main features really need some improvement. Please:-)
Fine. But the essential features we do need all the time, like acceleration, streaming: buffering during 'pause', random access to a position while keeping in memory the part that was loaded 30 seconds before [algo], general ergonomics and intuitiveness - are they finally working well? (On Linux at least, that's far from working well)
What has he created? What has his labor produced? Or is he just a landlord?
How many people in the late 90's were anticipating that.com rush? So the guy may not have created much, but at least he did something hazardous at the time you didn't see coming.
Recent history shows that despite new TLDs and country code TLDs, most entrepreneurs still prefer a.com to start a business (then may own a country or.biz TLD as well).
There is one big concern: the chip cannot be removed. Outside the company you're a person, not an employee. So when things turn awry, some guy installed a RFID reader and knows (and can prove) you were at that place at that time, or some better ideas yet unknown, your surgery skills will be at test.
No problem. You see that nice girl in the street, take pic and immediately FB gives you her address and phone number. Cool. The next day you step on the foot of this unsympathetic guy in the train. He takes a pic of you and during the week-end your house is burned to the ground. Everybody knows everyone, that's great!
Some do (big investment banks). For the others, the problem is the management does not have the relevant awareness of where money has to be spent, in IT.
At least your bank tracks what you purchase and sell. Anyway, when it comes to money, we'd all prefer the bank systems are at least as safe as Google accounts. No?
Slashdot Mirror
you almost certainly have a device in your pocket that can do the same thing as well if not better: your smartphone
implies that you already have a smartphone. So, use it instead of purchasing another device...

Since when Irish people speak French???

And it still runs like a pig, thanks (...) lack of unsigned types (...)
Not sure the lack of unsigned types shall have a huge consequence on Java performance...
Hmm he was probably looking forward a +5 Funny.
NASA in TFA relates in details that the work they did mainly comes from the European Space Agency results from the Rosetta mission.

Your Java Code Is Mostly Fluff
Nope. Not mine. Coming from C and C++, I know what I'm doing.

VLC Acquiring Lots of New Features

now that Better Call Saul starts to be available on (some) Netflix!
1 GB of RAM is not that bad for a phone.

Unfortunately scientists cannot afford the instruments used by Hollywood rich people :-(
Vive la liberté, you mean (your comp has some encoding pb)

It's Ubuntu. So you'll have Tetris and Reversi.

I did, but then my system asks
rm: remove regular file 'abc.c' ?
Not yours?

Easier to remember. But who likes to type a 28 chars password?
Some do (big investment banks). For the others, the problem is the management does not have the relevant awareness of where money has to be spent, in IT.
The question is "rm what?"
At least your bank tracks what you purchase and sell. Anyway, when it comes to money, we'd all prefer the bank systems are at least as safe as Google accounts. No?
