“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
–Presidential announcement speech, June 16, 2015
“I can never apologize for the truth. I don’t mind apologizing for things. But I can’t apologize for the truth. I said tremendous crime is coming across. Everybody knows that’s true. And it’s happening all the time. So, why, when I mention, all of a sudden I’m a racist. I’m not a racist. I don’t have a racist bone in my body.”
– Interview on Fox News’ “Media Buzz,” July 5, 2015
“What can be simpler or more accurately stated? The Mexican Government is forcing their most unwanted people into the United States. They are, in many cases, criminals, drug dealers, rapists, etc.”

You know, racism doesn't cease to be racism only because it sounds good to you.
You and me both. I don't know what bothers me most, that Slashdot is running so many misleading headlines lately or the fact that people can't seem to bother to think about what they read anymore.
"Moving forward, we will restrict ad serving on pages that misrepresent, misstate, or conceal information about the publisher, the publisher's content, or the primary purpose of the web property".
This is straightforward. Why is everyone acting like Google is trying to control news?
Yes, but they scale to a problem fast. Minimizing boolean expressions is NP-complete (a set cover problem, in fact) and once you go above 2-3k terms, which is little really, you need to resort to approximate solutions in order to get results in a reasonable amount of time.
Again, set cover problems arise frequently - optimizing costs when you have suppliers with different costs for combinations of materials is one case i actually worked on. Hell, even Sudoku is NP-complete.
Variants of the exact/set cover problem, or travelling salesman. There's also a good bunch of NP-hard problems when you start working with graphs and trees.
I'm amazed how most developers don't get floats at all. I used to work for a company writing billing software for Telcos which would, without exception, end up with rounding errors every single month. These added to a load of money over time, and no one had the faintest clue why.
Didn't see this coming but it looks like the republicans will control all branches.
This is the truly scary thing. Trump is a moron, Pence is a fanatical and this election not only put them in charge of the White House but gave the GOP senate majority andthe Supreme Court. Expect that empty seat to be filled real soon now.
I agree, and it is kind of my point. The thing seems to be reactionless - we know nothing, nothing about it because it has never been studied at more than experimental level. With good reason i might add. Yet it seems to work. We don't quite know if it does though, and even less under which physics principle.
Now, i still don't know how this is related to the idea that it generates constant thrust. It was tested on a lab at three power levels, for pete's sake.
Sorry, but i'm being this repetitive for a reason. The guy decides that if this EM Drive thing works it must generate constant force and hence it is impossible, yet we literally know nothing about the device other than it was tested in the lab and it seems to generate unexplainable thrust.
No, stop getting hung up on this device and how it works. Just imagine any device of an unknown mechanism: the precise mechanism and its details are immaterial. It produces a force when power is put in.
Jesus you're dense. The details are very important - a car produces force when power is put in. Too bad it requires friction to work.
Slashdot Mirror
Sure. Let me transcribe his full speeches until i hit something that doesn't make you uncomfortable.
The irony of you providing a YouTube link to prove Google biases news was delicious. Thanks.
Ah, so you were only being racist towards illegal mexicans.

But the announcement has nothing to do with news. Why is everyone acting like it does?!
Oh, the ones about all Mexicans being rapists and murderers (but some are good people) wasn't enough? Never his mind xenophobic views on Muslims.
You and me both. I don't know what bothers me most, that Slashdot is running so many misleading headlines lately or the fact that people can't seem to bother to think about what they read anymore.
You really need to read that sentence up there again.
"Moving forward, we will restrict ad serving on pages that misrepresent, misstate, or conceal information about the publisher, the publisher's content, or the primary purpose of the web property".

Jesus H Christ, are we on such a low point that "sites will starve" unless Google gives your money?
PS: What's with this shit about "no proof" on Trump being racist? He's on record making racists remarks during his own campaing, for fucks sake.
People, please! Stop asking to be removed, it doesn't work that way!

NP-hard problems are easy to run into everyday problems. Its just a matter of identifying them; most people seem unable to.
You can do shared memory in go, locks and all. But yes, it encourages the use of signals.
Seriously, i spend more time thinking on this than anything else lately.

You understand that if an "illegal alien" can vote then he, by definition, is not illegal right?
Why bother with dems? You can quote the man directly.

No I'm arguing that it's a really stupid position by showing the absurd consequences.
Well, we're finally agreeing on something...
