Yes, I seem not to have expressed myself very precisely. My point was that if you learn a pattern on a QWERTY keyboard, then trying to log in from your mate's computer will be pretty difficult if he uses Dvorak.
I rather doubt the lecturers intend to sell those notes to the students. I realise that my experience at a British university may not correspond at all to the experience at an American college, but most of our lecturers just handed notes out on the door at the first lecture. If that's not what the lecturers in question here are planning on doing, one wonders why they don't go to a publisher and get their notes published as a book.
I don't carry my phone in my trouser pocket. It's in my coat, which is loose-fitting. When I used to have the phone on vibrate only, I missed about 70% of calls.
Some of us don't like changing our email addresses every few weeks. My email address hasn't changed since 1994. I'm getting about 650 spams per day.
That would make sense under the substitutions s/week/decade/ or s/1994/April/.
Would you now give your e-mail address away in the way you gave it away in 1994? Time was I was quite happy to post my address on the web as a mailto href and the link text of the href. I don't do that with my current address, which I've had since 1999, and I get about one spam a month, without any filters.
Right now you can't tell anything from the subject line - porn spam comes with subject lines ranging from (no subject) to "Your Mother Called".
Sure, automated filtering is nice, but I don't need the subject line to filter out spam - I just look at the from address. If you're getting so much spam that you need automated filtering, perhaps it's time to change your address.
Firstly, if you can't just pull a library off the shelf, it forces you to think about alternative, heuristic, approaches. Secondly, it's testing your ability to (optionally derive and) implement algorithms rather than simply your ability to select a language which has libraries with good documentation.
Incidentally, if you write tens (yes, I know that 54545633 / 532 is larger than that) of getter and setter methods per class, I think you need to study OO a bit more.
As I read it, they're not prohibiting you from using libraries for basic datastructures like trees, but from using libraries for things like symbolic algebra and graph algorithms. The example given, LEDA, contains basic datastructures but it also contains MSTs, max flow algorithms, BFS, convex hull,... The competition is about problem solving, not real-life programming, so it's perfectly reasonable to let people use their favorite language rather than require them to do some research into which libraries are available for the languages permitted.
"I was just clobbered hard by having no backups, but if I had storage elsewhere I'd use that instead and still have no backups"? I think that's a fair summary of what you said.
I've written to the five main parties contesting my region (the Eastern region of the UK). So far I've only had a reply from UKIP, who don't appear to have a policy on software patents, although they might have a policy this term of voting against every single piece of legislation put before the Parliament. Edited text of reply.
And tech support becomes a lot harder, because everyone expects you to support all the peripherals they could plug into the box if it were running Windows.
And while kids still play, the market for cards is not nearly what it once was.
Who you calling a kid?
I didn't play M:tG back in the days of the Power Nine, but I estimate it's still the case that you can make more by selling the cards individually - most sets have one or two rares which sell for four times the cost of a booster, and the last couple have uncommons which sell for twice the cost of a booster. Sell the commons in chunks of 100 cards on E-bay, and you've probably got a viable business model. (I haven't done a complete analysis, but AIUI there are a few businesses running on a model similar to this).
Tony wants to be at the centre of the EU, and so do the Lib Dems. I've no idea what the official Tory line is this week, nor how many of them support it, but there's a very solid majority in the House of Commons pushing a pro-EU agenda.
Blocks aren't the done thing? What on Earth do you mean by that? Most Java programmers use loops rather than tail recursion.
Yes, I seem not to have expressed myself very precisely. My point was that if you learn a pattern on a QWERTY keyboard, then trying to log in from your mate's computer will be pretty difficult if he uses Dvorak.
Try using a keyboard with a different layout.
No, actually I break it when it falls out while I'm cycling to work, but the net effect is the same.

I have a ringtone so I can tell that it's my phone ringing.
Yes, but D6s or D20s?

As I write this, it's 09:38 BST on Thursday the 20th. I think you need to check your clock.

HFS+ is also journalled by default.

Or should that be Insightful?

He didn't say it was entirely effective.

Under UK law, there are four requirements for a contract: offer, acceptance, consideration and intent to create legal relations.
