I had a quick look at the catalogue and it's all famous meteorites. Non-famous ones are available for very little (heck, I have about a dozen of them sitting on a shelf). It's sort of like the difference between hiring George Clooney vs. Shlomo Gefiltashlep to do a bar mitzvah.
The point is, you can incorporate if you want. Hire yourself as a sub-contractor and pay you to go to your day job. It might be worth it, if your tax burden is high enough.
Canada won't cut it, if Trump is elected I'll consider starting a new life in the off-world colonies Do you think Mars will be far enough away, or should I start looking for places off the shoulder of Orion, or maybe the Tannhauser gate?
I had surgery on my penis once. I wrote on it in larger letters "This is my penis. There are many like it but this one is mine. Please be careful how you treat it". On the remaining several inches I drew a smiley face.
The warm glow is just as jarring than a blue one. First two nights I had it on, I stayed up way too late reading crap online
Same here. First two nights I had it on I stayed up reading crap online. Changed it to yellow, and stayed up reading crap online. Changed it to purple, and stayed up reading crap online. Changed it to green and stayed up reading crap online.
Most developers know VC++ compilers are full of bugs and weird stuff. Why didn't they just stay with the compilers that are well supported across all platforms?
I do cross-platform development for code that has to run on everything (literally). It's plain C, not C++, so I'm saved from seeing various bugs by that. The VC++ compilers are some of the least buggy compilers I've ever used. I've actually never found a compiler by in VC++ 6.0 in nearly 20 years of use. In contrast, gcc is one of the buggiest (mainstream) compilers I've used, every new release seems to contain a new collection of code-generation bugs.
In terms of more obscure compilers, even gcc pales in comparison to some proprietary ones, the worst compiler I've ever used was the SCO one, with the PHUX compiler coming a close second. Some of the Solaris compilers were pretty flaky as well. And Arm's compiler also gets pretty hairy once you start using some of the more exotic features some of the Arm architectures support, you really want to get that with a maintenance contract to make sure you've got all the latest patches.
As long as the tech allows you to holoport into Tera Patrick's pants or Sunny Leone's bed, which, lets face it, is what 99.9% of VR gear will be used for, who cares?
My old first gen iPad is turning into a doorstop because most new applications and application updates require iOS 7 or higher.
That's why you get an Android device. Since the vendor will never update it, every Android app has to be backwards-compatible with versions carved out of stone by guys living in caves.
(Hey, there's got to be an upside to the never-updated factor somewhere).
iPad sales were huge in the beginning because . . . DUH . . . . the market for tablets was wide open. Now, nearly 6 years later, the market is saturated.
It's just a repeat of the endless "The PC is dead" news stories. No, it's not dead, it's that everyone who wants one has one (I have a ten-year-old quad-core Core2 desktop, upgraded about five years ago with an SSD, that's indistinguishable performance-wise from one I'd buy now - note, I'm not a gamer, so graphics doesn't matter), and the same for the entire friends-and-family support network I maintain, there's no reason to get a new one (in fact Win10 is a strong incentive not to).
Same with tablets, I have a several year old 9.7" tablet that does pretty much everything the latest 9.7" tablet does. No need to upgrade. The only things that still need upgrading is phones, but even that's mostly to deal with changing cellular standards (4G, 4.xG, etc). In fact with phones we seem to be going backwards, with batteries having shorter and shorter lifetimes in newer models.
The only thing that'd seriously make me consider upgrading my tablet is if someone made a markedly bigger one, but apparently 9.7" is what we're supposed to be satisfied with (yes, I know there are a few larger ones, but by and large the limit seems to be 9.7").
How do you get ten years? Depending on your distance from ground zero it's anything from microseconds to seconds away, it never even gets as high as minutes.
I'm not so much worried about that, I'm still trying to get phrases like "We do own the commitment to you from end-to-end" translated from authentic Business Gibberish into English. I tried Google Translate but it crashed trying to process it.
I have another approach, I simply never have an original or interesting thought, ever. Because of that there's nothing to keep secret, so I don't need any encryption keys.
Oh, I'm head of programming for a major US network, in case you were curious.
That's for a country like the US or USSR/Russia. The North Koreans are still working with close to 1945 technology, and given how impoverished they are there's no sign they'll get better any time soon. So you're looking at huge, heavy physics packages that need to be lofted using souped-up V2s that aren't anywhere near capable of it, the only thing that they've got any hope of getting right is the guidance via GPS' they've bought off Aliexpress, and even then I can't imagine them getting terminal guidance working effectively using the crude systems they're working with and the operating environment they'll be subject to.
This also makes the CNN range plot pretty nonsensical. Firstly, the chance of any North Korean missile making it anywhere near a fraction of that distance is pretty close to zero. Secondly, the throw weight of their missiles is pathetic, so even if they could manage to get their Golfball of Doom to the projected distance, you run into the third problem which you've already pointed out, guidance is essentially "we want it over there somewhere".
So if you're North Korean and you want to drop a Golfball of Doom somewhere into the middle of the pacific ocean, you're fine. Try and get anything reasonable to a target and you'll have to resort to Fedex.
It's not just that, I was clickbaited into reading the article and its linked article and another linked article trying to track down what a vuln in a "Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC" is, when it has nothing to do with the Snapdragon, it's just some Android vulns. The same software could be running on a 6502 and it'd have the problem. Conversely, a Snapdragon running anything other than the appropriate version of Android is fine.
So "Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC Vulnerability Could Compromise IoT Security" should really read "Several More Android Vulns Found, Buy a New Phone to Get Your Updated Firmware".

For example, in the 'Panama Papers' case, (if you know Mandarin), you do not enter the "Pa Na Ma"
That's a species of grass mud horse I'm not familiar with.

We were able to effectively end childhood hunger in the 70s,
... by redefining it to food-insecure. Not necessarily the best example.
if you are watching VR porn with a Google Cardboard VR

With an Intel GPU, you never know, it might just manage it.
