  1. There is a whole book on how to do this on How To Deal With 200k Lines of Spaghetti Code · · Score: 2
  2. Re:No Really on The Math Formula That Lead To the Financial Crash · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The Black-Scholes model is an attempt to apply solved heat flow equations to a financial pricing problem. It requires demonstrably invalid assumptions to be made to make it work (such as markets do not trend). Just because a Nobel prize was awarded does not make the model valid.

  3. How about on Ask Slashdot: Techie Wedding Invitation Ideas? · · Score: 1

    Using an augmented reality image (requires a smartphone).

  4. Re:This article was written by an idiot on Microsoft Previews Compiler-as-a-Service Software · · Score: 1

  5. Re:spolier:The sonic screwdriver seems to be gone on Daleks To Be Given 'A Rest' From Dr. Who · · Score: 1

    I suspect that the Doctor that died is a Ganger (Can Ganger timelords regenerate?). It would stretch things too far for the Doctor to also be in the spacesuit...

    Would anyone notice the difference?

  10. Re:How do people pay eachother? on UK Wants To Phase Out Checks By 2018 · · Score: 1

    How about an off switch? Payments can only be made when switched on.

  11. Re:Good Riddance on UK Wants To Phase Out Checks By 2018 · · Score: 1

    Wait til you have to pay for goods in a power cut.

  12. Re:left an important detail... on Former Interplay Dev Talks "Disastrous" Old Star Trek Games · · Score: 1

    No it does not require an iPod - just some form of mp3 player.

  13. Re:You're damn right it is too broad on Major MMO Publishers Sued For Patent Infringement · · Score: 1

    Microsoft don't want to say that software patents are a bad idea. Blizzard will have no problems with that one.

  14. Re:Spoiler? on Turning Classic Literary Works Into Games · · Score: 1

    I have read both versions. The text is 90% the same (P+P+Z is slightly longer due to the added fight scene's). P+P+Z is arguably an improvement on the story.

  15. Re:That's all well and good but what if you get a on The "Doctor Who" Model of Open Source · · Score: 1

    Firstly how can you be overly picky on Slashdot? Secondly the modern Dr Who is a continuation of the "old" Dr Who not a reimagining like say Battlestar Galactica.

    So it only works if you know the password (unique id) which can be verified against a server stored password (unique id)? Sounds obvious to me...

  18. Re:This will apply to SIMs on Passport Required To Buy Mobile Phones In the UK · · Score: 1

    Since when does proposed legislation have to make sense?

  19. If you can't find a project start one. on Where's the "IronPerl" Project? · · Score: 1

    If someone wants IronPerl then why don't they start the project? It is just that no one has yet got around to scratching that itch.

  20. Re:Cheap. on Designing The Ultimate Netbook · · Score: 1

    They give you the discount even if you are going to an EU country!
