Because nothing says "fun" like figuring out how to consolidate two completely different ways of doing things into one while still staying efficient and getting the most out of either way. Round peg. Square hole. I needs me a coding hammer. D:

Something I've wished for several times recently is a database-document program. By "document" I mean that the database is a single file, which I can move, copy, etc., as opposed to living in a database...app. And finally, it should have a file format that either is obvious how to parse, or has a specification, or is supported by many other programs. Does such a thing exist? (If not, I might write it.

I just got done my first class with the new GSP Professor they hired here. I'm glad they got another, we really needed one. But actually they got two, the other is a woman who I believe I will have next... Did I get it?" I came up with another one, too: Sometimes I see the cup as half empty, sometimes I wonder whose blood it's filled with. I think those two sum up my outlook alright. The world sucks

Boot times are becoming a major hassle again to everyday users. NYTimes is reporting that many laptop vendors are resorting to a technology called SplashTop to boot a small Linux environment from...source community , but none at the theoretical center of activity. Collaboration is part of the Code of Conduct , and I hope our bright minds gathering at Mountain View in December take it to heart

Я что-то не догоняю или действительно ответа на вопрос "Человеческий мозг - это машина Тьюринга или все же больше?" нет? Если есть, то просветите меня, плиз.

And so it came to pass that I had a link that created a popup window upon click. That popup window had links in it with some action on the click event. I was supposed to replace the function called on...my_function); }); } If you expect the $(win).load event to fire unbearably late, you can set up a timer to register the $(win.document).ready event after like 100ms but I haven't tried that.

I'm going to comment on a point or two about Python and program design from the perspective of someone who primarily hacks in Common Lisp and C, with the disclaimer that I'm very new to the language and... Python, or the like (and perhaps we have similar issues in C++, but I'm strictly results oriented in C++ and not inclined to spin my wheels on trying to write beautiful code in an ugly language).

For a while, I was convinced that the Bay Area had the convenient property that a degree of latitude was about the same distance on the ground as a degree of longitude. This is wrong, and it should have...about 77% as wide as it is high. It's not quite the same ratio as the map actually called for, but it's close enough that you have to be paying more attention than I was to notice that anything is wrong

На английский "ядрёна вошь" переводится как "kernel bug" .

... Somebody once programmed an RPG for his major project, which sounded quite fun. It's a little early before I can begin on my major project (one year to go), but since I don't know anything about game programming, I figured if I actually want to do it, I'll have to start early. Then again, it sounds difficult. Much more than say, programming an software system for a business. Following this link...
