Lean to search. Put quotes around each word. As an added help the google results will not only actively tell you which words weren't present in the search but actually provide you a link to force include the word (by research with the quotes you didn't use the first time).
Google says there are 52,200 results. I click on the last page and it says "In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 300 already displayed.", except that there were less than 200 hits, very few of which matched the criteria.
Are you aware that much of the internet is just link farming and content copied from other sites? By the way if you haven't found it on the first or second page you're better off refining your search.
Google used to inform users of the size of each web page in the results.
Users used to care about bandwidth, in the 90s, when it mattered. 4MB of random words? A webpage of 10k bytes? Is this another throwback to the 90s? The relatively light page that is Slashdot comes in almost at 1MB.
Much additional information was available about each search result that is now denied us.
And the rest of your quote: There are competitors to Google as well. Note that none of them provide that information either. It wasn't relevant as a search result to nearly all people, much like the page size.
And I don't miss anything. Use ixquick, duckduckgo, searx. Don't use Google, period.
Cool story. Doesn't change the market share or Google's effect on web design. You do actually go to websites after searching things on duckduckgo right?
In any case, to prevent these kind of pointless posts in the future can you please get it out of the way now and give us an itemised list of all the things you don't have, don't do or don't think? That will save us some further wasted time in the future.
Why not start by defining what it is you're actually talking about. You use the word capitalism but you're talking as if you mean free market. If you replaced every instance of capitalism with the word free market this entire discussion would make sense.
But right now, the only thing correct anywhere here is the dictionary definition.
In its pure form, capitalism has nothing at all to do with any discussion on regulation or monopolies, other than the fact an unregulated capitalistic system is unstable and ultimately leads to monopolies as the ultimate goal of the players is to break down the perfect market and gain an edge over the competition.
I cannot. I can tell you what I liked about the movie, I can tell you that people come in many flavours, and I can tell you to go read the many reviews each representing the opinion of the reviewer and often in very verbose terms why they liked (or didn't like) that movie.
Why I liked it? Great despair story with an interesting premise for space travel, a very real plight of humanity's potential future. Accurate portrayal of science in many ways from relativity to conservation of momentum, to creative ways to solve problems experienced throughout the film without the usual case of outright making shit up. The use of relativity accurately as key plot device. A plot itself that doesn't rely on MacGuffins, red herrings, ex machinas (save for the completely irrelevant point of the main actor not dying at the end). An powerful orchestral track that drives the emotions of the movie. Overall decent acting. Realistic portrayal of the best of humanity breaking down in failure and isolation.
Speaking of the best of humanity the humours side point of people again saving a stranded Matt Daemon and continuing that meme wasn't poorly received either, though I highly doubt it was an intended casting choice for that reason.
You think shitty and overly long? I say just long enough to cover the exploration of several different planets in a story that could have been well served by a miniseries given the scope of what they were looking at. I'm glad they cut it down but you're complaining about shallowness, but likely for...
Was the ending a bit off the rails? Of course. But ultimately a) this is still fiction, and b) if you let any minor curve-ball ruin an otherwise good mood you're destined to live your life in misery, and this movie offered far more IMO that any single niggling thing was able to detract from it. Same with the shallowness of the movie. Just because "love" drove 2 minor elements of the movie, doesn't make the plot shallow. That's just letting a small niggling part ruin an otherwise damn good story.
There's no problem with the dictionary here, just what people's general understanding of two concepts are.
There are two fundamentally different concepts being talked about here.
The conversation started with boohoo about lack of regulation to defeat a monopoly. The following post talked about capitalism requiring well regulated markets.
That's where it all went wrong. The dictionary definition is on point. Capitalism has nothing to do with functioning of the market. What a lot of people confuse capitalism with is the concept of a free market. What a lot of people confuse a free market with is a perfect market.
A perfect market needs regulation, as a free market system under capitalism is an inherently unstable system. That's why the GP was right where he said capitalism (combined with the free market) naturally leads to monopolies. Companies fight each other and as soon as one gains an advantage over the other there's the opportunity to buy out. Hence capitalism in a free market tends towards monopolies unless a government attempts to regulate it back to a perfect market (something that can often be seen as against the spirit and definition of capitalism).
Generally everyone gets their time from a central source, usually the one feeding their cell phone or their network connection.
Generally people shouldn't generalise. My wristwatch doesn't get time from a central source. There's not an electrical component in it, let alone a network based one.
Try doing that in France. That earth pin is problematic.
Works just fine in France too. The devices which use these power supplies are double insulated and thus don't require earth or polar connections, they are universally Type C. The earth pin of a Type E socket does not prevent you flipping a Type C plug around.
So being bitch on twitter is the same as sexual assault of a minor?
Ched Evans was nowhere near a football field.
Or rape?
Shit man come join us back in reality when you get a chance. We miss you!
and the second one was even cleared on appeal.
And my post stands. Just because something shitty happened to one person does not mean society derranges into a shitty publicity game when it comes to work lives. If he was cleared on appeal than that would be grounds for wrongful dismissal. Mind you not showing up at work because you're actually in prison won't help your case much.
Why are templates designed in a way that makes you put the entire implementation in the header file?
Oh is that a thing? I am nothing more than a casual hacker at the language, more of a C person. The other day I saw my first template and was confused that the header seemed to do the heavy lifting.
I'm always amazed at the things I learn on Slashdot.
We don't have as an aim that architecture (of buildings) and engineering (of bridges and trains) should become more accessible to people with progressively less training.
Funny you should say that. Architecture is not what many people would consider a skilled job at all. Civil engineers spend a good portion of their lives telling architects that their silly ideas won't work.
I use lots of C++. I also ignore major portions of it. I do not need all of it.
Same. Except the other day where I was debugging a library someone else wrote and couldn't understand a word of it. What is a template anyway? (Does that make me an obvious non-programmer?:-) )
You're another useless male incapable of using your brain. There! Said! Now in a sensible country if my employer attempts to fine me for this post they will be in huge legal trouble.
Is she? Did she formally issue a position on something on the clock? Did she waste time at work? Did she fail at her job? Yeah she came across as an arse, but in her own time.
She is the victim here in terms of her firing. Just not in terms of people being pissy at here. Don't conflate the two. Employers should not have power over our personal lives.
Really? Which official company channel did she use while being a sexist jerk? I hope your employer sees this and fires you because I think you're and idiot and they are an idiot for hiring you.
Modern digital processors are no slouch on the freq front.
Indeed they are not and I guarantee you'll find gold somewhere in every bit of electronics, but the overwhelming vast majority of little black squares you see on a circuit board are not some high frequency, actually you may find plenty of them aren't even modern as there are some designs from the 70s that have well and truly withstood the test of time.
Tin sounds like a crap material for this use.
Indeed it is. Remember this post next time some electronics of yours fail for inexplicable reasons. *sigh*
LCD, plasma and OLED will additionally have gold plated connectors for the high speed data cabling.
which part are you considering high-speed? Gold plating on connectors are not actually for speed but rather corrosion resistance. Most of the connectors on the back are gold plated, and all the pins on the boards would be too. But there's not that many of them in a TV. A computer motherboard has far more gold.
There certainly are electronics out there that could potentially net you 5g of gold, but given what is inside a typical LCD TV it doesn't sound right for a TV. Maybe a brand new development model which hasn't gone through a cost optimisation process, but most TVs actually have a mainboard the size of an iPad, and one or two powersupply boards which are usually built to to such a low cost that they are single sided tin plated circuit boards (more whisker risk). I just don't see how you would get 5g out of a normal TV.
Not the GP, but having bonded chips before. Gold wire is 0.5thou thick and not used universally. The vast majority of chips actually use tin. You'll find gold usually in RF or other highspeed circuits.
5.6 grams of goal is a huge amount given that typical gold in electronics is electroplated to below 1 micrometer thickness. Go check out some youtube videos on people recovering gold from circuit boards. There was a good one from cutting of the PCB fingers from slide in cards since they are almost 100% covered with gold plating. 0.5kg of the fingers (enough to make up something the size of a motherboard completely gold plated on both sides) will net you return of under 1g of gold (a ball the size of a pinhead) likely with significant impurities too.

Market trends would indicate no one gave two shits about either of those features and the advantage Firefox held was lost sometime long in the past.

I truly do not understand what people liked about this movie
You truly understand people that poorly?
Yeah you remember right. Cooper pretty much narrates that end scene to TARS explaining what he was seeing. "They are us"!

So... just like most people's criticisms of C++ then?
C++ has moved since the 1990s, too.
Yes except exactly backwards. Much of the problems of C++ is how it has moved since the 1990s.

Yep, and not only that, we see spikes in heart attacks/death every time we fsck with the clocks and having it mess with our internal clocks.
I wish we could abolish it in the US too.
Nah, we should change the clocks 4 times a year to weed out even more of the weak from the gene pool.
