That's correct, but in this case the blockchain is used by a single entity. How would they use it to increase their trust in themselves? Organisations already have procedures, checks and balances to address this problem. I suppose they could set up 50 blockchain servers with separate owners inside the government but it really seems such a system would have to be integrated into those existing audit structures.
I tried foobar2000 after moving to W10 at work, but found it would split many of my albums into 2, I think because some songs used a different encoding in the tagging. Maybe this has been fixed now.
I returned to Winamp but had to exclude some folders from scanning as it would hang. This new update could be my salvation.
In terms of interface Winamp is the most streamlined and foobar2000 is great. Rhythmbox at home pisses me off with its 'play the next thing you randomly browsed to' - the primacy of the Winamp playlist is perfect.
I'm over 50% sure this is deliberate as it generates comments likes yours (and mine), and like publicity, when it comes to a forum, any comments is a good comment.
That was pretty much my first thought. Bose and Beats do not sound bad, but they're more a triumph of marketing, and generally scoffed at by hi-fi enthusiasts.
Left-click on the image so it opens into the larger image
So, step one given in that post is to left click the thumbnail
The problem is that this opens the entire source web page. That page may contains 100s of other images you have to load and scan through to find the one you want. Or it may no longer contain the target image, yet that image still resides on their servers so would have been accessible by the original View Image link.
I haven't looked at the addon code like you, but a simple test shows it works sort-of as advertised. - Search for cat in Google images - Left-click first image in results, for me an allegedly 5360x3560 image from pexels.com - Right-click > Show image in new tab, shows 276x183 thumbnail from cache - Click addon's View Image button, shows a 1000x664 image from hir6.hu
Note, I had to select the second 'similar image' then back to the first to get the addon's link to set itself properly.
Assuming you're not trolling, the OP's example would be - Population of 3 men and 3 women - 1 man dates each of the 3 women, the other 2 men date no one
It depends how you perceive or ignore things. Although your point is interesting, I keep seeing newspaper articles about how survey X shows that men on average have had 30% more sexual partners than women. They're not talking about distribution at all. The conclusion fits with our stereotypes on male/female sexuality, but it's a mathematical impossibility more easily explained by self-reporting bias.
Really lossless refers to the integrity when converting from one consumer format to another, not from the original performance or master.
This is the primary driver for me in preferring FLAC. I don't want my music collection to degrade over time as I convert to whatever the current format is supported by each successive generation of players. Of course my ears are likely to degrade faster, but that's not the point.
It's type inference, not assignment. While I agree overuse of auto leads to decreased readability (and I come across plenty of its overuse), it greatly enhances it for a lot of STL work, namely containers of containers of pairs and iterators thereof.
Very clearly-written blog post. The final paragraph nails the problem Slashdot is having with it - context. Biometrics make more sense on a portable device with locked-down hardware and an OS that sandboxes its programs. On a generic desktop that could run any OS, and where hardware drivers could be trivially substituted, and wishing to log in to a random forum on the web, not so much. Slashdot is thinking more about the latter.
Pfft, any artist that even has a Wikipedia entry, let alone one with as many words on it as GG Allin's, can hardly be described as obscure. You are so overground.
Sorry, I just assumed you'd come to the same conclusion as I did, which is that it simply will fail to identify the songs and not phone home to look up a master database. It's a good point, even if my assumption is correct, nothing says they won't change it to do a dynamic lookup in the future without notification.
According to the article the local song database is updated once per week based on the changing popularity of songs on Google Play. The least popular songs are replaced rather than expanding the database in perpetuity, and if you never enable the feature the database is never downloaded.
Just realised 705,000 is the CBD population. Not sure the population to which this tax law would apply but it could be up to 4,500,000 people, making the ultra-conservative calculation more like 20%.
Yes, but the cost of a VM in AWS or Azure with a high-powered GPU is significantly more than the return you would get from the cryptocurrencies it produced.

As for multiple inheritance being bonkers. My car is a Honda and a vehicle registered in NJ. That's two hierarchies.
Viewing inheritance via the 'is-a' model this does not work as strictly a car is not necessarily a Honda nor registered (although if your domain is a database of registered Hondas, rather than of generic cars, perhaps it is fine).
In terms of class structure, having a base class of "thing made by Honda" isn't very useful. You're better off interpreting it as "has a manufacturer property whose value is Honda". The registration base class would fare a little better, assuming the system is a registration database, then you could inherit Car from RegisteredVehicle. Even so, such a database would be more concerned with RegisteredVehicle as the top-level object, not Car, and would probably want a VehicleType property rather than storing Car/Truck/Lorry objects that all inherit from RegisteredVehicle.
This is why inhertiance has fallen out of favour to composition - composition is more flexible (if more verbose) as it effectively allows you inherit from an interface and change at runtime.
That said, I do occasionally come across a situation where multiple inheritance makes sense, just can't remember at the moment:)

Betteridge's law of headlines is an adage that states: "Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no."
Using an unproven means is a clear ethics violation. Where are the double-blind clinical trials?.

Wow, that's a really useful restriction.
Metal itself is okay, just ignore the whiny, detuned pop that passes for metal from that country that's very good at producing entertainment.

In a follow-up study, sperm counts amongst women remain precisely steady.
Clearly it was the college girl's 'that time of the month' and she hysterically entered the wrong email.
Just realised 705,000 is the CBD population. Not sure the population to which this tax law would apply but it could be up to 4,500,000 people, making the ultra-conservative calculation more like 20%.
Given the tax is on individuals I imagine $250k would easily place you in the top 1%.
Using a very conservative assumption that the highest Seattle income is $250k;
- Seattle population: 705,000
- Estimated new tax revenue: $140,000,000
- New tax rate: 2.5%
140,000,000 / ( 250,000 * 0.025 ) = 22,400 people earning $250k
22,400 / 705,000 = 3.2% of the population
Yes, but the cost of a VM in AWS or Azure with a high-powered GPU is significantly more than the return you would get from the cryptocurrencies it produced.
A step in the right direction. Next they'll be limiting chome.exe processes to only 80% of installed RAM!
