    I don't do video because I don't work with it, but I do image compression for fun and no profit. I do use some video techniques due to the type of images I am compressing. I don't …

    SOAP is used far more than most people realize. I deal extensively in "cutting edge" industries that rely heavily on SOAP or SOAP based protocols. Supply chain systems and manufact…

    Are the libertarians and right wingers going to not use the services they don't want to pay for? Or receive the benefits? Are they going to leave the educated society and start the…

    Recognize and hand over to a specialist engine? That might be useful for AI. Maybe I am missing something.

    I don't think it's the economy or anything else. All this seems like rationalizing to me not an understanding of what happened. Trump was able to motivate more people to vote than …

    You still have to move. It's the same effect as evicting someone. It often takes months to find and get into a rental in my area. Then you get hit with first, last, and deposit whi…
