My second biggest annoyance with the keyboard this......my biggest stems from my being in the UK - Apple obviously never tried entering a UK post code...
letter letter switch to number pad - no long press on the top row that I know of number number space switch back to number pad - because it's assumed you want a letter next number letter letter
My job (partly) involves testing mobile apps - so I have to go through the registration process a lot... utter pain in the proverbials...
Read this part again: "For commercial-level code... fair enough" - I agree with you entirely on that score.
I wasn't talking about that though - the whole point of demos WAS to use as many tricks as possible, to show off to your mates (and the wider world) for a few weeks, until the next bare-metal coder found a way to do something that blew yours away... If it ran on one specific variant only - so be it.
Out of interest - how far away does the proximity detector kick in?
There's an episode of Top Gear where Clarkson drove Hammond's vehicle away while it was parked, and the key was in Hammond's pocket (he was inside a diner at the time as I recall). The car got 100 feet or so before the system realised that the key was no longer nearby and shut off the engine.
If that's typical then the potential for theft is huge - by simply driving the car onto a tow truck before the system locks it down.
Instead of adding an exception to the Valgrind ignore list (which you most frequently must have in any moderately sized project, esp one that handles its own memory management)
If you need to add exceptions to get a tool to work... the tool is wrong for the job.
would probably be a lot more sympathetic if he were, instead, a barely-legal female in barely-there clothing that their readership could bitch about (or perve over) despite their claims to be a "family newspaper"

My thought exactly...
Not like the 52nd State to be ahead of the rest of the US in something...
"Is Sagehorn a total ****?"
Actually, yes.
Guessing that's the 1st Generation "G"?
Cue the "if you don't use your real name - you must be a terrorist" angle from the politicians
I already do... :^D
If the ranking mechanism FB used was any good, I wouldn't have installed FB Purity to override it...
...just showing everything, in the order it arrives?
Hear hear!
I get sick of the permanent BST brigade here in the UK... if they want to live on European time, they should bleeping well move to Europe!

At which point the industry will present their "new improved" model (at twice the cost, naturally)
Two letters...
U 2
"plus our allies are buying a whole bunch"
And in the meantime we in the UK won't have an aircraft carrier worth the name for the best part of a decade...
We have the boats... just not the planes (I assume the recent grounding will put back delivery another year or two)
Should have stuck with the Harrier...
*whoosh*

Actually, timing-dependent code is a gross violation of Commodore's published Amiga programming standards.
For commercial-level code... fair enough
The demo-coders, though, would have taken one look (if that many) and said "screw that - look what we can do!"
"possible malign foreign actors"
That'll be the NSA then?
So you leave your doors unlocked and open when you go out do you?
I assume nobody in your neighbourhood would even consider walking in and stealing all your shiny things...
*ducks*
So if I were to gun down the entire US population - just to make defend myself from the possibility of being shot next time I'm there - is that OK?
(Yes... I know it's a stupid comment...)

Assuming they're not brought about by "accidentally" selling things off via some offshore location (or three)
Gains? What gains?
The NSA has apparently known about heartbleed since the start

Should have used furlongs... you'd getter bigger numbers that way - and we all know bigger is better ;^D
