...he would have wiped the recording the moment he felt they were on to him. And then protest innocence, offer to let them search his devices, and so on.
I cannot even tell whether he's guilty or not, how's a security guard supposed to know? Just put the thing in your pocket when you enter the theatre.
I'd go further. he could be planning an attack on the cinema complex. He should have been sent straight to Gitmo.
...There are many clauses. The police will start working you towards something that will enable them to search you. You have to practice otherwise you will be an amateur trying to battle professionals.
Yes, I agree. This is also exactly why legal professionals have but ONE recommendation for anyone being questioned by law enforcement, regardless of the accusation or situation: STFU.
Readers in the UK should bear in mind that our legal system is different. If you STFU it may harm your defence if you don't mention something which you later rely on in court.
Why? Because some overzealous pimple-faced minimum-wage snot might call the fucking FBI over it?
No, keep wearing them. And let the idiots keep involving the fucking FBI every time, until they give up with the bullshit nonsense.
What they will do - and should have done - is just not allow you into the theatre without taking your glasses off. The same would happen if you pointed a phone camera at the screen.
shouldn't the goal at this stage of the game really be CS education for all?
If you really mean Computer Science rather than general IT skills or computer literacy then no. True some subject should give a taster of what computer science involves, but most people need to understand computer science to do what they do with computers as much as they need to understand automotive mechanics to drive or fluid dynamics to run their washing machine.
How are you going to get the groceries back home, make 10 trips? I think I'd prefer to drive.
Certainly for 'the big shop' we need the car - But if I'm doing a 'medium shop' I just throw on a big backpack, clip the leash on the dog and walk the kilometer to the supermarket.
It also brings up social Darwinism as if it's an aspect of evolutionary theory
Actually, Social Darwinism is the one kind of Darwinism your typical Creationist is happy to believe whole-heartedly in. If you start believing the poor might not necessarily deserve to be poor, a whole lot of modern Republican politics suddenly starts to look very unchristian.
[sarcasm]Why should the poor have more now when they have the "Kingdom of God". If you ask me they are getting the best of the deal, so we should take more from them. [/sarcasm]
Other so-called education texts being used by the Responsive Ed program teach Western superiority and how feminism forced women to 'turn to the state as a surrogate husband."
It brings up a whole new connotation when they say "fuck the state"!
Unfortunately developer communities can tend to get rather hostile. It only takes a few hostile folks to tarnish an entire community. Python is a classic example as well.
The API is pure C. It's much easier to create wrappers of GTK+ library than Qt in other languages (as a replacement of Tk GUI), because C++ doesn't fit well with others.
I think that "much easier" is an exaggeration here - its not hard to wrap an object interface with a flat "c compatible" interface.
CADT also brings us cheesy, amateur-hour user interfaces, butt-fuck-ugly skins and themes, and terrible usability.
GTK isn't inherently riddled with those problems though. I mean, yes, most of the time when you see it, it's pretty god-awful, but it *is* possible to design a UI in GTK that looks pretty good, and which has a degree of UI uniformity. Take a look at elementary OS for an example of how it's possible to do GTK right. (and yes, I realize I'm cherry-picking an example, and that it's incredibly easy to find examples of GTK done horribly horribly wrong)
Of course, to throw a little gasoline on the fire, I prefer Enlightenment...;)
The question is "in GTK projects that do look good did the developers find that they were fighting the toolkit as much as using it?". I don't know the answer but that's key - "possible to" is not enough for good interfaces to be common-place.
So if it actually separates the oxygen what about the hydrogen? That's fuel.
If this is real it's more than just a breathing device, it's a low cost way to separate water into 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 Oxygen atom. That is a much more significant breakthrough... then again that's a big IF.
Evidence please.
yes because fish always emit bubbles of hydrogen from their gills
The last category, fortunately, is quite rare. It's the type of person who has heard about some bug, but either not heard or not interested in its details, but now wants the developers to devote all their time into investigating this, BEFORE the complaining user might run into it.
Yes - I've come across this.... I've heard that GIMP can't handle APNG files... have you ever used APMG?.... No but.....
There are two kinds of them : the one who complains for any reason and often doesn't even know why, wasting coders' time, and the one who sends logically articulated problem reports (not necessarily in a bug tracker), helping coders to improve their software.
Three kinds - the I expect the most common user is probably one who doesn't report anything but just uses the features that work.
Slashdot Mirror
Not to mention Candy Crank
Fake reviews, Fake adverts, Fake court presentations...
And they complain if we use a fake copy of Windows!

Don't they realise that the IT industry runs on coffee!

But it's QUANTUM!

You're working too hard, you need one of these.
But I work from home...
Open a convenience store in your garagae
Teens drivers are, on average, 4 times as likely to be involved in a crash.
Shouldn't they pay 4 times the cost rather than 10 times then?

One word: C++.
That's three!
Gimp developers - please don't feel obliges to play catch-up and incorporate this. It should be a separate application.
If we are going to have impossible inventions then I want oxy-gum
Too good to be true.

Do you take every observation: square it, average the total, then take the square root? Or do you remove the sign and calculate the average?
WTF! - he's managed to get both the definition of standard deviation and mean absolute deviation wrong.
MPHJ has a First Amendment right to notify companies that it believes its patents are being infringed.
This is the corporate equivalent of shouting "fire" in a crowded theater.You really need to be sure that you are right before shouting.
