It makes me wish that Firefox searched whatever it's searching - whether a flat file or a tiny integrated RDBMS - in a separate thread to the one it uses for processing keyboard input and rendering.
The birthday problem is relevant for finding clashes in hash functions. The fact that on average you need to check half of a cipher key-space to brute force the key is an even more elementary result. Suppose you draw up a list of the keys in the order you will check them: K1 to Kn (one-based indexing makes the sum that's coming up easier), and let the true key be K. Then, assuming you don't have any information to allow you to check more probable keys first we have P(K=Ki) = 1 / n, so the expected number of keys checked is SUM_i=1^n P(K=Ki) * i = SUM_i=1^n (i/n) = (SUM_i=1^n i) / n = 0.5 n (n+1) / n = 0.5 (n+1).
The Snopes article you reference and that statement that the copyright on Happy Birthday expired some time ago everywhere except America are in no way mutually incompatible. In fact, based on the information given by the Snopes article I would have to conclude that in the EU it expired in 1991, 75 years after the death of Mildred Hill.
Did you actually read the portion you quoted in context? The "clicks outside their control" he's talking about aren't made on his computer but by some random person/bot visiting his website, which he was trying to monetise via Adsense.
NASA may not charge you, but my quick calculation is that we're talking about 1,7 terabytes (uncompressed - it will compress fairly well, but probably still half a terabyte to download) so it's not going to be free to get the whole lot. OTOH if they set up a suitable server then NASA's very own free open-source WorldWind software will allow you to view it, and if you know C# or Java you can write your own filters to false-colour it.
I read it in the Spanish newspaper El País, although I had to follow their link to the NASA site to get the real details. It's not entirely clear from their story whether the author realised that the handful of images (L.A., a glacier, the Grand Canyon) are false-coloured renders of a DEM.
An IDE takes a huge amount of trivial work out of designing GUIs, fixing syntax, refactoring, integrating with version control and just helping you remember the names of objects or methods or whatever.
There's an odd one out in that list. IDE GUI designers are horrible for producing maintainable code which doesn't lock you in to using the IDE in the future.
In a month? I'd be delighted to get a job here in Spain which paid 2000 euros per month, and that's with a degree from a prestigious university and over 5 years' experience. In the US I would probably be earning about $4000 per month.
Even if the kids started learning metric-only they would still have to know imperial units because thats what everyone else uses (as in, people who are out of school).
So? Plenty of children in the US are growing up bilingual. You think they can't handle knowing two measurement systems?
I fly through UK airports a lot - admittedly mainly Stansted rather than Heathrow - and I've never had staff be rude to me. They're not all friendly (although some are), but in my experience they are all professional.
Start with slower dances which are closely related: rumba and cha-cha. You'll have time to think about where you should be stepping next. When you get the hang of it you'll find that a lot of figures transpose into salsa and mambo.
No, it's a logically impeccable statement to say that commercial space tech. can get off the ground. If it doesn't then it must be something else entirely.

Be serious. It's like Ford missing "black" from the list of options for the Model T. Having an "other" box doesn't make up for it.
You missed "pink" from the list of colours.

I think you missed the bit he put in parentheses.

That's a lot easier when you're on the same side of the Atlantic as Boston. I'm not strong enough to throw a computer across an ocean.
If I earn $2000 in the US, or 2000 in Europe

I think that much was already evident from GPP. What I don't understand is why the wheel group is relevant to this.
Cool. Time to make friends with some doctors.
Airport screeners know how to use monster.com?!

I swear road safety campaigners are all those morons who took 5 tries to pass their test and think that driving is actually hard to do.
Or maybe they're cyclists who've had too many frightening experiences involving drivers who weren't paying attention.
Tax on electricity and water bills? I hear that growing weed requires a lot of both.
The better way is to mark up your paragraphs as paragraphs by wrapping them in <p>...</p>.
Try re-reading your excerpt in context. Those were options the poster offered to the sales rep, and it was the sales rep who wouldn't accept them.

Talking in secret in advance helps them to take to the streets at the same time and in the same place.
No, it was dead dead. And now that it's alive and going to have to start paying taxes again, it's going to be really pissed off.
