Actually, an easy way to see an impossible color is to watch the David Letterman show. On his set, there are a number of things painted in a burgandy/maroon color. If you let that color burn into the retina for a while, when you close your eyes, you get a blue green that's just awesome.
If all the other planes can do that, this one should be able to do so as well. If what someone below noted is correct, that 7 meters is only 10 degrees, then I'm not a fan of the plane either.
I literally have 30 minutes of booked flight time. And even I know that pilots are supposed to use positive communication about who has control of the plane. When a pilot wants to override the other pilot, he says "my aircraft" and the other pilot says "your aircraft" takes his fat fingers off the yoke/stick/trackball.
I also don't like the idea that the plane handles differently in an emergency situation.
I suspect he fired the guy for not closing the program when the boss walked into the room. You play solitare when you are on a conference call, not when the mayor is wandering around.
It's (hopefully) not like the brain teaser is the only metric in the hiring process. And I'm sure there are ways someone can fail the brain teaser test and still be a great employee. They are, when used properly, ways of getting insight into an applicant's personality. An applicant who says "jeez, I've never seen something like this before, what are the constraints?" is going to probably be a better employee that just shoots off the first BS answer they can think of that seems to solve the problem.
Depends what you are looking for. A competent cog in a machine? Then your method is probably best. (And I'm not knocking cogs, every business needs them.) But if you are looking for an idea person, maybe not so much.
Unlike many other tech companies, they actually support older versions. As opposed to many other companies, where "support" is advising you to upgrade.
I agree. Upgrading costs money and time, neither of which I want to spend on screwing with computers. I only upgraded to 7 on my main machine because it came with Vista and sucked many balls.
Also, don't expose anything that isn't necessary to the outside world. Make sure anything you send to the client doesn't contain any information besides what is absolutely necessary. No hints as to what is behind the scenes.
I think the idea is that it is too big and too popular to be super secure. Using a smaller app as your webserver reduces the surface area for penetrations, and a more obscure one will not have as many people exploiting it. A small, stupid server is easier to harden.
I would agree with that 100%. In addition, using different machines for different filtering tasks. You might have a firewall that keeps bad stuff out of your network, but then have another firewall type of machine that protects and sanitizes only your app server. And have different physical networks. Nobody, not even system admins, should be able to get to the machines from the outside facing network.
Yeah, I'm not sure what the point of the MAC lock is anymore, except maybe to circumvent people hooking a hub up to the ethernet out of the modem and trying to get IP addresses directly from the modem. But with the Comcast stuff, I've found that a couple of reboots always solves the problem.
My experience with Comcast is that they have various levels of technician. The people who do the installs are the first line. But they also have line (RF) techs and data techs who handle the infrastructure. Those guys are the ones who are rarely going to show up at your house, but actually know how to get stuff done.
I'm not sure about the display, but the rest of it was possible. The Apple//c was pretty small, and a big part of its volume was the disk drive and keyboard. Then, eliminate the circuitry for all the unnecessary I/O devices, probably reduce the RAM chip count and I think they could have easily fit it in that package.

There will be a decoder ring to encode keystrokes.

Hipsters aren't carrying them around, so they aren't important, man.
Some people call those "puzzles"
Good point!

Wasn't there something about this county versus that county versus a statewide recount?
Since when are the works of other people "ours"?

It is not perjury to suggest an alternate explanation to the evidence, AFAIK. Or at least for the defendant's lawyer to do so.

Because it isn't saying anything. "could care less" can mean his level of caring is anywhere on the spectrum, except the dead bottom.
So "could" and "could not" are equal now? Idiot.
I think you just need to show them the physical discs and you are done.
It might be coincidence, but I get way faster service when I tell them my television signal is out.

They didn't invent it, they just made it *useful*. APPLE4LYFE
