I honestly have no idea where stupid people like you get off spewing idiocy such as you do. It absolutely has no basis in reality. Everything you said is completely full of shit. The world revolves around IP. If it didn't exist, millions in the US alone would be unemployed and the global economy would be much smaller.
Literally, the level of sheer stupidity required to have such illogical and unsubstantiated reasoning can only be understood at the depths of stupidity.
Grow the fuck up. The world works on IP. Grow the fuck up. IP pays people. Grow the fuck up. IP empowers massive segments of the world economy, of companies of all sizes. A massive chunk of that includes medium and small businesses. That's how they become big businesses. Grow the fuck up.
But, I look at so many of today's young people, and they have no drive, no hunger, no need to do anything.
And yet they feel they deserve everything simply because they want it. And fuck you if you disagree. I call them the, "Entitled Generation."
Unless things dramatically change, this generation is going to completely fuck over America. And thus far, they show every indication of being extremely proud about it.
That was entirely the gp's point. They likely have a mental disorder which motivated the crime for a reason other than to benefit financially.
So you disagreed by agreeing and then turn it on its head by offering they may have done it for a reason other than the reason you first offered by disagreement. WTF?!?
And the claim that the "proper python indention" prevents bugs is utter nonsense.
No, you're position on the subject is entirely bullshit and idiotic. People literally change their coding style to avoid these types of bugs. Python, non-rigorously enforces such concepts.
Basically you are completely wrong, added nothing to the discussion, and have every appearance and not only sever brainwashing, but a willful desire to maintain it and general ignorance. Sad.
And a quick walk around the school after it had shut wouldn't have let them discover this without the need for expensive analysis!?
Sure - quick walks around the gym, between the hours of 9pm and 3am, when no one is there. Its cool how a quick walk allows one to know things they otherwise wouldn't know.
I guess I don't know enough about the game. It doesn't really sound like they are being milked. It sounds like people who wish to buy extras can do so for cash. It would be different if certain goods are only available for real cash and they require a subscription. Is that the case?
You've never been involved in a disaster response, have you?
Let me know when you decide to pull your head from your ass - if its even possible. That has absolutely nothing to do with anything. Again, you're either a moron or purposely conflating things for the purpose of being a moron.
On what planet? Here on earth, citizens who have taken video of cops in action rarely, if ever, edit them to make the cops look good.
You completely miss the point. What a surprise. The first thing people want to see if the unedited video. That's generally what is provided. It is the rare exception when it is not. It is the exact opposite for police when there is a dispute. Police rarely want to release video. And when they do, they try to edit the hell out of it. And when editing can't hide their crimes, the video magically disappears.
Perhaps you should learn to read. They has some regressions in performance from a specific kernel version forward. They have a fix for the regression; well, mostly so. Thusly, when the fix is released in the 3.x, Linux version 3.x will be faster than the window of Linux kernel versions in which the regression appeared. Saying Linux 3.x will be faster than 2.x is completely false and even acknowledged in the original Linus comment.
Why? Cops should have no expectation of privacy because they are public servants serving the public, and they actually are on-call 24/7, so of course they should expect no privacy in their homes, either.
Bullshit. Flat out lie. There is a difference between being on call and being on duty. Police are not paid for 24/7 duty. Period.
No, in real life, a recording of the situation will be edited to paint the cops in a bad light. Nobody gains much from releasing a tape of them doing things the right way. There are considerable advantages to selective editing. Like, edit out the abusive drunk throwing a punch or two at the cop, but leave in the cop shoving him up against the car and cuffing him. Sell that to the media, or to the drunk's lawyers who have conveniently filed a police abuse case...
Except that rarely happens. And in fact, the exactly opposite is considered standard operating procedure. Every day, all across America, video either disappears or is edited with unexplained data loss so as to hide criminal behavior of cops. Inversely, there are tens of thousands unedited videos of police wrong doing readily available on the Internet. The public generally encourages transparency where the police has established a long, long history of lying and destroying evidence, even at the departmental level.
To be clear, I'm not out for cops. They are people. Some are good. Some are bad. But please stop characterizing them as all good. The reality is, even the good cops are frequently forced to do dishonorable things on a fairly common basis simply because of the blue brother code. You'll be hard pressed to find good cops who are not tainted by one or more of their coworkers.

Once you get over your white space phobia and brainwashing imposed by other languages and closed minded programmers, you'll actually learn to love python's white space scoping. It saves types, prevents common bugs, increases readability and slight consistency in structure. There are literally, only two down sides to python's use of white space. One, some editors do really dumb things. Two, it feels unnatural for the first couple of weeks because of the endless brainwashing from other developers and languages.
That's a ridiculously dumb statement. If they are too dumb to figure out the tab key, there doesn't exist a programming language to help them.
Your argument boils down to new programmers shouldn't understand scope. That's dumb. That's idiotic. And worst case, you can have the classic, basic-like, linear, non-nested, procedural, rats nest which coders have long associated with learning basic. The only difference is, python encourages something smarter, something saner, and something more professional on which to grow whereas your recommendation re-enforces just about everything bad with undisciplined coding.
Without a doubt, python should be the goto language for newb, wannabe programmers. Pssst - see what I did there.
Not all hardware is used across all OSs. Many hardware packages are only available, for example, on Windows or Android, exclusively. Furthermore, look at some of the low end devices from Motorola. Some of them have been real stinkers. IIRC, HTC made a odd here and there too. And, there are lots of other players. In Asia, there are players you've likely never heard of. Quality is typically absolutely shitty and I wouldn't be surprised if those numbers were tossed in to dramatically bulk up shits rates for Android.
This really smells like either fanboy marketing posing as journalism or an Apple smear campaign getting primed for their latest iPhone entry. Either way, the fact there is more than a couple of posts to this article submission is pretty pathetic.
Microsoft promoted their inferior browser, which served solely to lock users and especially corporations into Microsoft, to the detriment of the rest of the world. Google is pushing their services along with everyone else's which embracing either standardized technology and/or perpetually free patented, technology - again, for the better of everyone.
Android runs on the full gambit of available phone devices. That means on the low end, crappy hardware is there by design. Crappy hardware, by design, driven by cost considerations, are going to have less reliable hardware and less QA.
Basically the story says, "Shit happens. Sometimes free market economics create products which are far from ideal." Is anyone really surprised. Next story. I mean, that's really all that needs to be said. Duh.
Nope. That didn't happen until later. NASA freely admits their old procedures left gaps. They've later confirmed its extremely likely some bugs got at least as far as the space voyage there. As we can't physically check on the far end, it is technically possible none arrived on Mars but the chances of such are a very, very long bet.
Of course modern procedures are far more efficient and effective.
Holy shit you are stupid and clueless. The vast, vast majority of the time, coding schedules are set by marketing. Worse, most companies don't even allow time for actual requirements gathering nor project planning phase. All of that tends to be lumped into back of the napkin projections from marketing.
Basically your post only confirms you're completely fucking stupid and have no idea what the hell you're talking about. Perhaps you should blame yourself, which we've already proven, for failure to understand before you start criticizing people who actually do have a fucking clue.
Holy shit you guys are fucking clueless and dumb. Everything in my post is factually accurate.
Before Microsoft created low quality software and introduced it to the masses, software was rarely released with a long list of bugs. Microsoft literally created the release poor quality software with consulting services centered around it, with later releases (for sale) which will fix bugs created in previous releases. Literally, Microsoft lowered the bar for an entire industry.
And as for programmers - holy shit you moderators are stupid. Managers and companies set schedules - not programmers. Typically, this is how it works. Marketing idiots says we need feature x because he has a hard-on and absolutely no basis to demand feature x. He then demands feature x and says its needed in y months. Programmers say it will take 2y months. Company says tough shit. Programmers do their best to create feature in y duration. Its buggy. This is known. The company releases it anyways. Morons such as the moderator of the parent post then blame the programmer for marketing and general company idiocy.
Holy shit you moderators are fucking clueless and stupid. If you're going to moderate, at least bother to know something, anything, about the topic on which you are moderating. Holy shit you moderators are fucking stupid.
It can, but certainly not likely. At those distances the frag pattern is so large, the likelihood of purposely hitting someone is tiny. But, random targets do get hit.
As a side note, with so many references readily available, people like you who are both too stupid to use Google and too lazy to even try, only validate just how bad humanity has become. The world at your finger tips and you're too stupid and lazy to use it.
If you go the less formal route, and if a new shiny plane isn't important for your training, you can actually find planes in the $60-$80/hr range with instructors running around $30. Keep in mind, most instructors are lucky to make $20-$25/hr through a company.
Also, with the advent of the light sport category, you can significantly reduce the number of hours to obtain your license. Private pilot requires an average of 70 hours. Light sport requires an average of mid 30-ish hours. After which, once proficiency is obtained, you can usually get your private pilot in an additional ten hours or so while flying until you decide to get it. And planes such as a Piper Cub qualify under light sport regulations.
Getting your license nor owning a plane need be extremely expensive. And given the loan terms, you can frequently get a used plane, on the lower end of the scale, with payments comparable to a nice bass boat or second car.
The average private pilot makes roughly $40k/yr. The average private plane owner makes less than $80k/yr.
Now if only we could get the FAA to allow free market competition and shoot all lawyers, we could all own a nice Cessna/Piper-ish for roughly the cost of a nice sports cars, but with payment terms over 10-25 years. Meaning they would be broadly affordable.
I believe the focus was in relation to helicopters. Most modern helicopters are modern marvels of high precision moving parts. This is why, even non-turbine helicopters are so damn expensive to operate in relation to a fixed wing.
Helicopter: engine quits, it can glide (autorotate) to a landing that most of the time is successful, and nearly all of the time doesn't kill anyone.
Not necessarily true. Most helicopters require a minimum forward speed be maintained. If its not available, the aircraft will stall and fall out of the sky like a rock; not having enough energy to allow an autorotation to be performed. Not to mention there are specific flight profiles in which a helicopter literally drives itself into the ground.
Airplanes fly with the grace of eagles. Helicopters beat the air into submission. Once you can no longer beat the air into submission, the failure modes tend not to be pretty.

For starters, you might want to learn what self righteousness is. ...ugh...why do I bother...damn slashdot has gone to completely shit.

Okay. That's what I thought. Definitely not milking anyone. Effect on game dynamics is a different issue, but definitely not milking anyone.
