    Not an expert, but if you can test for contamination why wouldn't you be able to test for the drugs themselves? Raman spectroscopy[1] is one that I know of that is frequently used …

    I would personally prefer it, just so that it's not always dark before I leave the office. The more daylight at the end of the day the better, IMO.

    You can have the activity graph show private contributions. edit: I may have misunderstood, assuming you mean it's patchy because you're contributing to a private repo that's not o…

    Didn't that lawsuit end up being entirely misconstrued [1, 2]? IANAL, so I can't verify the legitimacy of the sources there but it made sense to me. I'm interested if someone more …

    I'd second this. I don't game, and have never had any interest in developing games, but there's certainly nothing wrong with it. I've always seen game development as a positive whe…

    does "out of wedlock" really matter? I think the benefit of marriage in that context, is that there are 2 income generators, instead of a single parent. Isn't that accomplishable w…

    can you elaborate? Devices transmit PROBE frames containing the SSID's that the device "remembers."

    I'm getting an error about it still being in development mode when I try to log in with Facebook.

    am I missing something? why would you assume it's included by default in Ubuntu?

    I would imagine it's simply a temporal comparison of pixel colors at predetermined locations, similar to how the Shazam algorithm[1] works? You'd just need to analyze enough pixels…

    I did now. But I need to book soon, so I think this has a long term lease in my browser tabs real estate :)

    Wow this is great! I'm planning on taking a vacation in March, and I'm definitely using this to help plan. Thank you!

    I thought Google Fiber was on hold entirely (everywhere) now[1]? Did I misunderstand that? [1] http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/10/google...

    My thoughts as well. Does anyone here have any insight on if it's misguided to worry here? Second, what exactly, if anything, can be done to fix the lean, or prevent it from leanin…

    I really like this response and I do truly believe that cutting out or minimizing sugar is a truly beneficial thing. But when I got to this: > I can't even drink a soda, I spit it …

    I've used it a lot for C with great success, although that's not C++. Give it a shot with the cpptools (I think that's what it's called), as well as the clang extension (which impr…

    I agree with you for the most part, but I think if his sentence read: > A CS degree can prevent you from making a lot of obvious (if you have a CS degree) and costly mistakes. I th…

    This is awesome! I too have been there, feeling unemployable, anxious, etc. That said, I got past it, just as OP will. I'm willing to do the same. Email in profile.

    Given the amount of complaints about this (from me as well) I would think this would be priority #1 for Atom developers, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I remember some time …

    I would always recommend a MacBook. I used to always stick with various non-Macbook laptops (Sony, Samsung, Lenovo, etc). I switched to a MBP a few years ago and don't think I can …

    Not very. For example, at the company/startup I left recently, lunch would arrive at 12 and would sit out until the evening. So come 5 or 6 PM I would eat dinner from the lunch lef…
