He may have changed only a single line, but making the queue 4 months instead of 3 could break other parts of the system. Perhaps the "save data" and "backup" functions assume 3 as…

If you played the sequels, you would be in doubt.

Buy ad words or quit complaining about it. You act like you are entitled to search ranking. You aren't.

"new customers" is not a valid metric for a restaurant or a pizza place. You want new customers, sure - if you are a small place just starting up. What's important though is repeat…

It's a single photo of the entire earth from space. 121 megapixels is good, but it's only 10x the 12 megapixel sensor of my current camera. It's good, but it's not Gigapixel good. …

Aspen, Rocket, Tornado - granted a lot of these have C modules for speed, but they are Python. There are several others.

Yes, I'm referring to a 'knob' interface, not this emulation. This is more of a round slider bar.

Too many slow javascripts on too many pages, the web is ridiculous these days.

Not even then. Touch interfaces pay no attention to the rotation of a single point, so this would require two fingers, and if even then, you couldn't rotate it more than 180 degree…

I'm curious if the problems he mentioned are applicable to IPV6 or not.

Yea, when I was a wee programmer, I made a "class" for socket.h which was just a wrapper that mapped things to a class, so when you wanted to create a socket connection, you just c…

Because it's summer, they want their $480k to spend on their vacations.
