I'm not sure that the math doesn't work out. I'd think that 80% of the part of the military that actively engages in combat is well below 5% of the population. I'd consider it obvi…

Exactly. The key difference is how advanced the statistics that matter are in the different sports. Only very advanced stats will really tell the story in basketball whereas it is …

By most statistical measures, the Lakers are an elite defensive team. They allow only 0.458 efg% and 101 points per 100 possessions. I'm not exactly sure where that rates overall i…

I wouldn't lump named parameters and defaults together like that. They're completely separate concepts.

Not that I agree with his proposal, but youre assuming that someone wouldn't pirate something that they weren't willing to pay money for. That almost certainly isn't true for a sig…

The real failure that opened you up to this race condition is naming. Initial is not specific enough and thus colided with another variable, that was also not named specifically en…

Although your point on efficiency stands (at least with data structures that have to reshuffle contents on deletion), the type of loop that you use has nothing to do with the order…

Actually, you will never delete the final element with that code. I think what you meant was: for (int i=this.MyControl.TabPages.Count; i > 0; i--) { this.MyControl.TabPages.Remove…

What do you mean by "relatively easy to create"? If anything, I'd say that an MMORPG is probably the hardest (and most time consuming) genre of game to create.

I can appreciate continuancy of mind, but red squiggles shouldn't be a deterrant to that. Rather, it is simply saving you the step of compiling before giving you information. You c…

What you just described is the opposite of targeted advertising. Advertising, in general, can be disruptive, but targeted advertising is definitely better than random advertising (…
