I tried that first, actually. However, it doesn't support SDV and anything but "copy free" content. Most of the channels from my provider are either SDV, copy-once, or copy-never. Only the over-the-air content (like 10 channels) are usable with MythTV.
My only PC I haven't upgraded requires Windows Media Center to record TV; add media center to Windows 10 and I'd be happy to upgrade from Windows 8. Otherwise, they can go shove it.
How about we create rules that foster responsible procreation? If someone wants kids they should have the means (money, time) that is required to take care of them before getting pregnant. Netflix did something helpful for new parents, sure, (and people working at netflix are probably people we'd rather be having more kids than Joe Bob and his sister/wife Fanny Mae) but there are people out there who take their "right" to have kids and stomp on my "right" to not pay a dime for their terrible decisions. We shouldn't be incentivizing having more kids in any settings, we should de-incentivize having kids when you can't afford it (ie. jail time).

Is this a question for Hadoop employees or slashdot? If there's something better, why does it matter to anyone other than the company developing Hadoop if it's relevant?
Again, because of slashdot comments, I didn't realize that the internal loop code was "lost"
bad loop: s += (char)Math.floor(Math.random() * 256)
good loop: sb.append((char)Math.floor(Math.random() * 256))
I completely disagree. Dynamic typing makes keeping track of what you're doing more difficult; at least for a beginner. If they don't understand the difference between a string, an "object", and a numerical value (which is confusing itself) then they cannot be an effective programmer. Also, writing more code and being demanding aren't what I would define as being a additional bonus you get for using a dynamically typed language. You write more code because it doesn't work well and you need to fight with the language more than use it. Also, the dynamically typed aspect makes it more demanding the same way driving with your eyes closed makes driving more demanding; it is not helping you in any way shape or form.
Java's "syntactic clutter" I call "helpful verbosity" and most scripting-turned-application languages are sorely lacking in readability; something Java has been getting better at in recent years. Java forces readability and corectness more than most scripting languages I've ever used, at least. Structure is more beneficial to a beginner than freedom.
Stop using dynamically typed languages altogether. Java is much more C-like than python or VB and can be used to teach most of what C can do in a relatively painless fashion. Kids aren't stupid; stop trying to dumb things down for them. Java handles memory allocation and other object-creation issues that might hamper someone learning a programming language while still containing classes, abstraction, inheritance, and a typed object/primitive hierarchy that will do a lot more to teach students about programming than confusing them with "hey this can be a number or a string or a pig object." Java also has many IDE's (Eclipse and NetBeans mainly) that help with the memorization issue in most API's and are very useful when learning. Compiling is much easier than in C as well but still retains the items necessary for understanding how compiling should work.
Any dynamically typed language that isn't just used for scripting (your perl is probably okay) should be taken out to pasture and shot. JavaScript used to be okay; then application development came and it should go die in a fire.
Yeah, my first thought was "one queue for tokens and another location for pickup using the single-queue-to-multiple-registers". This blog post was more along the lines of, "durr, me like ice, get now" than an actual "algorithm."
I completely agree. I wasn't trying to say how it should be, just how law defined how they decided what you owed. If you have no profits locally you owe nothing. The "see-no-profits" game is a completely different bullshit loophole. They should get rid of income tax and increase sales/property tax to compensate or use something like the APT tax.
Because taxes are used for paying for municipal/government protections, services, etc. If they have no physical entity then why should they pay for these things? It's not that simple, is all.
I would say that they distrust it, not dislike. It is also expensive to implement over something that has been used for decades and since they see things more short term than long term, the savings aren't seen so upgrading is deemed not worth the cost and training.

He was a sub-contractor as I recall. As such, he'd probably not have taken that oath...
Except to get clearance (which he had) you need to agree to keep what you learn secret; he did so. Even as a contractor.

It works but it can't do SDV or encrypted (non copy-free) channels.

It looks like most of your stack trace is from a third party library and not actually java. gg

The biggest source of damage to the ecosystem of javascript is javascript

Why couldn't they have formed further apart and floated or were pulled in closer? Also, a million light years seems pretty far to me...

gd. slashdot can... ugh. both loops go to 1000000
Again, because of slashdot comments, I didn't realize that the internal loop code was "lost"
bad loop: s += (char)Math.floor(Math.random() * 256)
good loop: sb.append((char)Math.floor(Math.random() * 256))
This is exactly why Java has a StringBuilder class.
final long startTimeBad = System.nanoTime()
String s = ""
for(int i = 0 i s += (char)Math.floor(Math.random() * 256)
}
final long endTimeBad = System.nanoTime()
System.out.println(s)
System.out.println("bad: " + (endTimeBad - startTimeBad) + " ns")
final long startTime = System.nanoTime()
final StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder()
for(int i = 0 i sb.append((char)Math.floor(Math.random() * 256))
}
final long endTime = System.nanoTime()
System.out.println(sb.toString())
System.out.println("good: " + (endTime - startTime) + " ns")
System.out.println("diff: " + (endTimeBad - startTimeBad) / (double)(endTime - startTime))
bad: 399644443512 ns
good: 76023788 ns
diff: 5256.834130811792

Also, PSU's last longer and die less often if they're run at less than 60-75% of their rated output.
