Yeah, I bought a camera today.. and 256GB of storage to put into it.
I can take 80GB of 1080p video in a day, this camera will do 237Mbps 4K video. Still images have 50MB files and I've been known to take 2000 photos in a day. I'm also taking the camera on a ten day holiday later this year and wasn't planning on taking a laptop..
If she wants to earn a living selling her body then that's a decision she can make when she's legally old enough.
By then she'll also hopefully realise that she can control her own work and income, and only allow third parties to assist when she feels they're adding value.
What's so sick and twisted about the law? How is foster care so much worse than potentially coerced and illegal prostitution? What makes you think she's getting thrown into the foster system anyway, rather than returned to her family that reported her missing?
Hasn't that war already been lost? I thought RESTful APIs pretty much killed it off.
No data-only structs is a beautifully purist vision but also pigeonholes all data into a specific object type. Separating data from the code that does the work with the data means you can easily do different work with the same data.
Shit, look at the whole Big Data arena. Wrap all that data in behavioural constructs and you'd flounder.
I went through this whole design debate/cycle between 1998 and 2000, and haven't looked back since. Rather surprised to see it suggested here now.
Shit, I've put code into production in at least eleven languages running on half a dozen different operating systems (let alone OS versions) and at times running in sophisticated application servers. Right now I couldn't get through a good programming job interview on any of them.
Even now I can look at code and tell you the bugs, tell you how to optimise it, tell you how to make it more maintainable and tell you what it'll do. I'd still need days of practice to be able to write anything meaningful in any language.
Of course, the Smalltalk afficionados were complaining because they'd switched to use the other language. Smalltalk set a lot of precedents and had a positive influence on subsequent OO languages but many of them surpass it.
One reason would be that the Michigan electoral college votes will be based on the number of votes cast for each candidate across the whole state, so additional votes for one candidate in a certain county would be combined with the votes for both candidates in other counties to give the final figure.
When some states are being decided by very small margins it doesn't take terribly much electoral fraud to make a difference at the state level.
The problem is that if you enjoy playing computer games it doesn't matter how many free and open source games there are, they still can't fully replace commercial offerings.
In three years at university I spent six months (actual time) playing one open source game (to which I contributed code), completed Angband (back when you couldn't save scum), played several dozen other open source games (and contributed code to several) and still found time to play Geoff Crammond games, Elite: Frontier and Micropose Golf.
These days I still play Angband, I regularly download free or open source games and play them but I also have 590 games in my Steam library.
Mostly play Open Source games? Almost nobody; anybody that enjoys computer gaming will go beyond open source. Commercial games continue to offer experiences the open source options can't match.
FM17 still hits 100% CPU on one core for well over a minute during new game initiation. Yeah, I'd like that to go faster. I already have a m.2 pci drive, I have lovely fast RAM and I have a CPU running at 4.2GHz. It's not fast enough.
Can confirm what the other three replies said. R&D that needs one-off workloads is an ideal AWS use case.
Others include swift onboarding of new workloads, where in-house can't move quickly enough.
Another is the processing of customer data that they already have on AWS - it's cheaper to pre-process it there and only pull down the results.
But yeah, you could also put your factory work on there. Between them Azure and AWS are seriously increasing the size of business needed before owning a data centre remotely makes sense.
TFA - I really don't think people should try overclocking i7s.
Why deny people their hobby? Why force people to buy a more expensive chip when they can get good compute performance from their cheaper one?
There's a whole market out there for overclocking support, it's a mini industry in its own right. Sure, you could just buy higher compute capability by throwing money at the problem but where's the fun in that?
When you're looking for terabytes of RAM for your database it's not the fucking SQL that's the issue, trust me. Shit, there's a good chance your database doesn't even support SQL.

Take my lens cap off.
Photojournalist ethics are a fucking minefield, I tell you.
If that's not the case, then only the subset of people who want to play dolly with their avatars will spend money on your F2P game.
Oh no, you may only have one of the 12 highest grossing games of the year. Or three of the top 24.
Shit, several of the top 12 offer purely cosmetic enhancements.

Did he also mention that COM was fucking horrific?
It was actually easier to use DLLs than COM objects, and that's a indictment if you've ever done 90s Windows programming.
Not if they're decent interviewers.

I learned Eiffel at university. It was interesting, and actually helped me massively in understanding and effectively using less formal languages.
I'd go seriously fucking despair if I had to use it for commercial code though.
Hmm. I have. Multiple languages, even.

Makes a change from blaming it on scousers.
Only if you're so cute she actually gives you what you're being arrested for trying to procure before arresting you for trying to procure it.
Wait? There are people other than fetishists?

Fucking hell. You deal in small small databases.

Subpoena. It's not that easy to spell.
, you simply won't have the attachment to a robot that you would to a real meat puppet.
I have Aspergers, you think I really care about other people?
Maybe I do though, I don't call my partners meat puppets.
A woman won't pay for a robot
The $15bn sex toy industry has some compelling evidence to the contrary.
You get your wife on all fours, naked, in front of a healthy male dog, and tell me it's not consenting.
legal precedents about living together as a couple equalling rights to property on separation
Fortunately not in the UK.
I don't want to lose my house, half my pension, everything I've built up over my life just because a relationship ends. Fuck that.
I can imagine an unmarried man in this environment having zero presumed(?) rights to his own children in the eyes of a judge.
Not quite. He has every right to pay a punitive portion of his salary to the bitch that wont let him even see the child.
A Laptop processor is far too slow and clumsy for code development!
I think you should name those top-10 schools, so that we can mock the quality of their PhD programmes.
