A bug that sneaks into the two or three offsite locations, destroying the tapes which are randomly checked before being shipped to ensure they contain valid data? Really nasty those bugs.
And if someone does not license out a life-saving patent at reasonable prices, it should not just be government's prerogative, but also their duty to take control of the patent and license it out.
Why would people think this would be a problem more than it is in the space ship game called EVE? It's not like the mercs you hire will be randomly selected, they'll be part of a corp that has built up reputation through countless battles.
In Norway, and most 'loser pays' (but not always depending on if the case was sound), if a company tried to tell the judge they'd used $xxx hundred thousand on lawyers...
You know what would happen, and has happened? The judge would say; "Find cheaper lawyers next time."
And what do you do when the pulsar star has the 'glitch' in its rotational speed, caused by what ever it is... adjustment of the crust, startquakes, or what the theory of the month is.
We have plenty of winners, they just don't live in the US.
It doesn't matter if you're paying taxes or health insurance, it's still money you don't get to spends on stuff. Might as well make it as cheap as possible.
It is due to this kind of thinking you got the most expensive health care system in the world and none of the benefits to show for it. (Unless your ass has that very rare disease that makes it spew out dollar bills 24/7)
Except 'free market' means different things depending on if you're a Conservative cheerboy or a Democratic cheergirl... For the former, it's the 'Answer to every question and cure for cancer and no AIDS does not need a cure cause it's a leftist myth', while for the latter it's what you said...
God help you all. (And I'm only saying that cause you're a country of religious nuts)
They don't work even in Tokyo's subways, with the exception of the stations. And the reason you're usually taking the subway is to get from point A to point B, not to camp out at a station.
Yeah. They should also get rid of that useless physical education thing, it's useless as it's not really education. Of course, they should keep the small part that is theoretical stuff, perhaps roll it into the biology classes.
Not, "I don't know". Something along the lines of, "uh... it's a thing that has functions and data, which can be private or public so other classes can see them,..." Is that really that hard?
Cause that's not a proper answer? And more specifically, someone who knows much about something is easier stumped by simple questions as they see all the different ways in which it can be answered.
Templates are a statically compiled generic programming paradigm. Yet that doesn't really say what a template is, so unless I was explicitly told it needed to be a one-liner, I would never use just that answer.
There's a difference between 'I don't know', and 'There's too many answers I could give, which would be the most fitting?'
Nope, cause you're doing it wrong. If it is inlined operators and you're not doing anything 'different' in the ++x and x++ operators outside of returning the previous value, they'll still optimize to the same code.
If you can't tell me, in very general terms, what a C++ class is, then you're not qualified to claim you're an expert on C++. It's that simple.
I've written a reasonably large C++ project containing a lot of modern C++ programming techniques, a lot of template magic and what not. You wouldn't look at my code and say I'm not an expert on C++.
Yet if you ask me 'What is a C++ class', I'd be stumped too. How the hell do you answer that kind of question, you expect me to have memorized word for word the definition of a C++ class? Or am I supposed to describe all the properties and rules that apply to a class? How abstract an explanation do you want.

Well, what about powering the pump for the artificial hearth that was posted on /. a few weeks ago?
Imagine not having to worry about keeping those batteries recharged, nor having to lug around the device holding them and all.

It's called 'kicking idiots out of your corp', something that happens often in EVE.
Why would people think this would be a problem more than it is in the space ship game called EVE? It's not like the mercs you hire will be randomly selected, they'll be part of a corp that has built up reputation through countless battles.
You get kicked out of your corp and relegated to fighting in Factional Warfare, which means no support from super-rich alliances.
Or, you know... If you happen to sleep with a guy that has a problem with flatulence.
The part of 'depending on if the case was sound' was towards the 'loser pays', not the part about finding cheaper lawyers.

You know what would happen, and has happened? The judge would say; "Find cheaper lawyers next time."
Those are software problems, not hardware.
You mean, error bars to measure how bad the counters were at counting?...
1... 2... 3... 5... 6... oh... wait... shit
'duh...'?
You're on slashdot, we've never even gotten close to those 'promiscuous, uneducated teenagers', except in our fantasies.
Yeah, it's clearly out of season to go shooting Apple Retail Staff this time of year.
No no, obviously they're currently pushing fuel through those copper wires, and the nanotube things are going to percolate the fuel much better.

Not a very good clock, now is it. ^_^

Bullcrap.

Well, if you're not wearing pants in public perhaps it _would_ be a good idea if the proper authorities were notified?

Let me ask you a question; What is life?
Well, just don't live in the 'many parts' where they do stupid stuff like that.
