And there are already fifteen being worked on, all that this means is that I need to wait until one of them is fixed to report it? (No, of course not, but seriously, the thing about many regressions is that they somehow fall outside the functionality covered by unit tests, and aren't noticed in patch review.)
Though I appreciate that the development process will involve closer attention to regressions and unit test failures known at the time of the commit.
Only if the computer is also playing randomly. If the computer's strategy presumes a pattern or bias where there is none, it might actually lose to a random player. For example, non-random humans often have a bias against repetition. The computer might falsely guess that repeating a choice a second or third time is less likely than a different one, when they're equally probable.
I'm not using a random generator to pick my moves, so the veteran algorithm should be able to predict what I'm thinking at least slightly. Instead, it gets it wrong more often than not, and after 20 rounds I led 6:4 with 10 ties. Maybe it'll get better after I play a while.
This is a completely retarded idea. It was thought up by people who think email works like the postal service. What it does great is accumulate control and bureaucracy where it is not needed; what it does badly is any kind of security.
If the federal government of Germany wanted to actually effectively help people secure their online communication, they would certify actual end-to-end encryption and electronic signature programs for official use, and provide some kind of root CA (or the PGP equivalent). Instead, we will have an incompatible reinvented email implementation that will, based on the German government's track record with electronic passports, be buggy, riddled with critical vulnerabilities and badly supported on non-Windows systems, if it will even be accessible without the web at all.
Manning is accused of creating pretty much all major US military leaks published in 2010. Within months of these leaks which focus on the Middle East to a great part, a cascade of popular revolts sweeps through most Middle Eastern nations.
Naturally, the promotion of actual democracy in these nations threatens the strategic position of the US as the sole bringer of Iraq-style "freedom". It's hard to force a regime change in democratic countries (well, the US did that during the cold war, but that was before the internet). Freedom in the Middle East is the enemy. Manning and Wikileaks aid the enemy.
The thing is, they hold an extremely great amount of US federal treasury bonds. If the US get uppity about honoring that debt (such as declaring parts of it void based on the verdict of its own courts), then they are pissing off a very powerful creditor.
Since it is now in all major browsers, I wonder how the idiots running the "why firefox is blocked" campaign are going to react. Maybe they will now block the internet.

It's GNU/rms. :P
(Okay, so the second one would require a slight redefinition in the calendar.)
By varying the notation.

Hey, that would work in Hollywood OS.
"Enhance!"
Same reason. There are not enough consumers who care in order to put any kind of pressure on the music cartels.
Also in NCIS, any time a file is deleted, it must be displayed on the screen in a sort of dissolving animation.

You can buy stamps with cash. It's not like they'll run a background check or enter you into a Stamp Owner Registry. :)
rotfl.

Some balls.
Subtlety is clearly their middle name, and also their first and last name. :P

Germany and the Netherlands.
They won't necessarily arrest you, but being unable to show ID when asked to is a petty infraction with possible fines.
For people who want roguish good looks?

It's now forbidden to be tolkien about Tolkien?
Perhaps not, but one can dream.
I'm sure he meant "they wouldn't of known."
Except for the insufficient horizontal screen space to show two medium-length URLs end to end.
By the way, when I hover over a link, Chrome shows the URL in the lower left where other browsers have a status bar.
Before they blame their shitty product and horrible marketing?
Then they'll no longer be accepted as genuine.
