My daughter purchased the new jackless iPhone. The misplacing of the adapter for a non-bluetooth pair of headphones has been occurring on a semi-regular basis. Its a terrible design decision. Not everyone wants to also charge their bluetooth headphones. Now, if they introduce a line of bt headphones that cost 20 bucks and don't suck we might be getting somewhere. Or at least include them instead of making it an upcharge.
I am actually in this boat right now. Although it lists 45% developing for IOS, I need a dev platform I can target both Android and IOS on. I mean, sure I could scrape together a hackintosh, but its just so much easier to drop 400 bucks or so and grab a mac mini. Its unix, I can install homebrew, its fine.
Um, that's the whole point of non-SAC mission aircraft honestly, either Navy or Airforce. Once you've eliminated the few hard targets or someone's laughable air force, you are supporting the boots on the ground. If you are an air marshal and bitching about some Army or Marine butterbar "bossing" you around on the radio, you shouldn't be an air marshal.
Elon Musk must not fit into the correct mold for the new American Entrepreneur, which is odd considering he plays the political donations game like every other American billionaire. I personally cannot afford one of his cars, but if I was able to I can't imagine anything in that price range I'd rather buy. I'm just not much of an early adopter these days.
My reaction to the headlines was "Seriously? Even after they know its not a bomb?" Then I read the students name and the location of the "crime" and my confusion evaporated.
Self driving cars cannot disobey traffic laws or "drive erratically"... so, the answer is we don't have traffic cops. Period. When the 70 million driving jobs evaporate from self-driving car adoption, so should the jackboot jobs as well.
Well, seeing as shooting a police canine can result in a hefty felony, I'm guessing shooting their drone buddy will be about the same. They'll write the law to make it as if you were shooting at the operator him/herself.
Interesting articles, and thanks for posting them, but I wonder about this from the OP article:
“From the beginning I offered simple solutions,” Assange said. “Come to the embassy to take my statement or promise not to send me to the United States. This Swedish official refused both. She even refused a written statement This is beyond incompetence.”
If this is true, you do have to wonder. If Sweden is notorious for not extraditing on espionage, how hard would it be to give written assurance that it was only a rape investigation and under no circumstances would he be extradited anywhere?
Trucks are the main reason why we need to overbuild roads, and also the huge contributor to their constant need for replacement. Building roads for light weight vehicles is much cheaper and easier.
That's actually philosophy, not superstition. Feynman wasn't discussing supernatural causality - he was discussing the ramifications of human action. Couching his discussion in an older philosophical form(ie, religion) doesn't negate its value simply because your fedora gets triggered by words like "heaven" or "Buddhist". Also, reminiscing about that one time 70 years ago when you were doing science is not science, its history.
Here, I'll help you out. "The key" = knowledge (scientific, philosophical, biological, etc). "Gates of heaven" = Place you would like to exist; a place that doesn't suck ass. "Gates of Hell" = Detroit. Or maybe Cleveland. Therefore, what he was saying is akin to "Your knowledge and methodology can either put everyone in a nice spot, or fuck it up for everyone." See? Metaphors are your friend.
I also find it odd that someone with the moniker "420" after their name would get so riled up about religion, as I have never EVER met a stoner incapable of spouting actual superstitious nonsense about his drug of choice ("weed smoke is safer than cigarette smoke!", "Don't ever smoke a joint made from a gideon's bible page!", "Don't ever smoke with a white bic!", "Weed cures cancer!", etc etc).
Wow. You don't even need to know anything about the Israeli/Palestinian situation to recognize blatant jingoistic propaganda.
FTA:
Lefebvre sees Israelis as the problem.
“It’s a moral stand point. You see a lot of people all over the globe complain about China, Russia, and take individual actions to dissociate themselves from them. I don’t agree with what Israel is doing and although they’re forced to take action and defend themselves I don’t believe they have their back against the wall without any other possible alternative.”
(author of blog's response): Yes, the Israelis could just lay down and die.
They cannot. They don't understand the differences between right after post-war and now.
For example, I make very good money writing software. At entry level I am considerably higher than the region for software engineers. I went to a private college (thanks GI Bill!), still came out with 40k in student loans, and needed a 4 year technical degree to land that job. Adjusted for inflation, I earn the same as an 8th grade educated automotive line worker did in the 50s and 60s.
I used to get upset about this stuff. Now I just realize its collective bit-rot. History is Booooringgg.... understanding the multi-generational con, the 70+ year effort to undo the tiny fucking concessions FDR was able to yard out of the Rockefellers and their ilk is complicated. Who cares if the salary you have has been stagnant for 25 years? Oh, your 401K got swallowed up by Madoff? Sucks to be you. Guess you should have worked harder. Life would be so much better if we didn't have dat gubmint picking winners and losers - if only the true economists were in charge!
So, why must it be that we get rid of Richard? This absolutist garbage is tiresome. Instead of whinghing on about "ZOMG teh Clazzz warfarez!!!" maybe pull your head out of your 5th point of contact and educate yourself about the myriad solutions to this actual real problem instead of dismissing it with bullshit talking points. Talking points, ironically, you lifted straight from Richard.
I landed an entry level C++ job out of college (where we lived in Java land). Read Design Patterns. Read Essential C++. Read More Essential C++. Know the stdlib. Learn the gotchas. Just be prepared to keep at it.

Star Wars spoilers? NO WAY. Ah Reddit - you are the Florida of news aggregation sites.

Stupid then, stupid now. How about trotting out the "LOLZ mah cellphonez iz smarters than that raspberrry pie!" chestnut as well?

Tons of marketing speak and a link to Lynda.com. Write a document explaining its use, get marketing to put a price tag on it, and call it good.

along with the entire Steam library over on Linux. DirectX as well.

Funny - I have root access, alternate ROM, twrp, and an LG-G3. My phone is clean.

Who knows what the premise really is, since we can't RTFA.

Well, the thousands of municipalities who depend on that citation money aren't going to be thrilled.
Just in case - Robert Oppenheimer quoting the Bhagavad Gita when asked what it was like to witness the trinity shot.

I mean there's this person's account, and this SF Gate article stating that yelp can manipulate reviews for paying customers .
"Freedom of speech". Riiiiiight. Yelp is an extortion racket, plain and simple. Pay your hush money or lose your rating.
It will be state mandated or company mandated to obtain legal insurance.
NOT a C64. Its an Amiga 2000.

Right, because that is the ONLY alternative to Palestinian "aggression"? I mean, just look at what these self-hating jews think. Crazy, right?
