I didn't say that they should ban normal ads. Tess Holliday and her HAES (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_at_Every_Size) followers are telling people being obese is okay and that science is wrong; you can't lose weight and 400+ lbs might be your "healthy" weight. What they're saying is dangerous and borderline criminal. They shouldn't be allowed on the internet.
They didn't make a mistake; Tess Holliday is obese and tells everyone that its okay. It's not okay, its unhealthy (I know, I'm the same way and know I need to get in shape; I'm not trying to by a hypocrite) it is hard to get back in shape and I don't blame her for being fat but I do blame her and her kind for perpetuating the "healthy at any weight" bullshit on the internet. She's not fat, she's obese; she's unhealthy and allowing her to tell people that it's okay is not okay. I know it's not okay for me to be obese, either, but I'm not telling people that it is.
Facebook, for once, did the right thing the first time; she shouldn't be allowed in an ad just like anorexic models shouldn't be either. Reversing their decision was the mistake.
Except an 18 year old girl was the one using snapchat and the 55-year-old man's wife is suing them. He wasn't doing anything except driving. The girl that hit him was to blame. Now, should the man's wife be suing the girl instead of snapchat? Probably. However, I wouldn't call this lawsuit frivolous because you think the person who was in the wrong shouldn't be suing over their mistake.
I used a music app on my phone for a while and after a few months, it's buttons were permanently burned in because I left the screen on so I could skip songs while driving. It kinda sucked.
Ok, so from your comment I'm assuming that Iron.io doesn't own Docker? Because, from the summary, I had no idea this wasn't the people that own Docker doing the Dockering.
There is a dropdown at the top to change language; english is selected when I go to the site. If they have different languages, they should use the language appropriate thousands separator character. Though, three-digits isn't a valid sub-currency-unit value anywhere I know of so it's still not a valid excuse.
You're right; I apologize. Chess isn't completely brute force but from the Go page on wikipedia:
"There is significant strategy involved in the game, and the number of possible games is vast (10^761 compared, for example, to the estimated 10^120 possible in chess)"
And from the Computer Chess page:
"The Nalimov tablebases, which use state-of-the-art compression techniques, require 7.05 GB of hard disk space for all five-piece endings. To cover all the six-piece endings requires approximately 1.2 TB. It is estimated that seven-piece tablebases will require between 50 and 200 TB of storage space"
Which is just not doable in Go; regardless of the fact that in endgame the match is usually already over or will only change the score by a few points.
This doesn't brute force the board combinations completely; they used a Monte Carlo algorithm and a neural net to intelligently limit potential moves. Chess is brute forced; this is not.
As wickerprints pointed out, this is completely false. A good move in a local position in Go may not be the best move overall and may, in fact, be a bad move when other areas on the board are taken into consideration. If a computer program split the board into smaller and smaller sections it could very easily get confused by a good player. Also, the number of moves possible at any given time in Go is exponentially higher than in Chess; you can brute force every possible path in Chess, you can't (not yet) in Go. It wasn't that it was more popular; it was much easier.
I didn't RTFA (because/.) but I don't see where it says that quote is from their legal filing; maybe it was just a quote while talking with news outlets?
Watching someone else code is the most maddening thing. They always seem to take the long way of doing something; use the mouse and doing eight clicks where a keyboard shortcut would do, etc. I do my best to not watch people code when I'm trying to help them. I would have killed someone years ago if I did that full time.
Unfortunately, Plex doesn't support encryped SDV cable channels or I'd have switched long ago (aka. when I got my CableCARD and already had XBMC installed I would have not installed Windows when it didn't work)
I have a Home Theater with a CableCARD and NEED Windows Media Center for it to work. They removed Media Center from Windows 10. If they add it back in I'd be glad to upgrade. Otherwise, they give me no other option and they can go cry in the corner.
Without backwards compatibility, they're useless for me at work. We do GL2 and GL4 side by side (legacy vs. new development) and the open source drivers just fail at initializing because they don't support the backwards compatibility profiles.
Also, with Vulkan coming out next year, it'll be a bit tough if they aren't working on that yet.
Windows Media Center which is required to record encrypted cable TV from a CableCARD was removed from Windows 10. If they auto-update my HTPC, all my recordings are useless as they're only playable from the machine they were recorded on. Also, I can then never record any more since media player is not available.

Don't tell me that you think the Chrome settings page is easier to use than the Firefox one; because if you do I'll have to call you a liar.
People in planes, maybe?

...and fix those pesky characters that /. thinks are html and removed!
seriously, whoever was using left-pad and was too lazy to implement this themselves deserves their fate.
Or just have the keys sent back to Apple when a phone is locked so they can decide whether to unlock it for someone?
Tin + Oxygen sounds a lot cheaper (and more readily available) than those iridium, molybdenum, etc compounds, too
AMD has a beta driver; it just hasn't been certified yet (which is stated in the slides)

If these are so much better, why aren't they just the official repos?

Did you forget the sarcasm tag? (If not, no media center, background data bullshit, ads in my start menu by default, etc)

Nope, once they release Vulkan to the point where we can start developing with it we're starting a new version of our software.
Without backwards compatibility, they're useless for me at work. We do GL2 and GL4 side by side (legacy vs. new development) and the open source drivers just fail at initializing because they don't support the backwards compatibility profiles.
