I think it was related to something about how a pointer to the video data worked in the game engine (not a property of Apple II itself).

Maybe it was the positive/negative bit that was flipped, and made the pointer read backwards and underflow, but end rendering anyway due to some hardware quirk.
try going into a Costco, just having a small index of what they carry let alone what aisle its in would be helpful.

Most traditional grocery stores put all the healthy / low storage lifetime items on the outside of the store perimeter.

Trying to find stuff in the interior is quite hard. Wholefoods is a perfect case in point. Try finding ketchup, you would expect it to be next to bbs sauce, but its in a totally different aisle.

If you factor in the TV time spent covering the individual campaigns, which is the broadcasters betting their money, I'm not so sure money had little influence. I wonder if anyone has compiled the coverage times of each campaign.

Your larger point about backup being required is very salient, however it is no longer the case that GPS can be turned off or impaired by DOD.

When SA was turned off in 2000 it was irrevocable. GPS satellites designed since that date do not carry the SA feature capability.
The utility is the lower cognitive overhead of having all the UI that you don't need hidden, responsiveness, and having more lines of text visible on one screen. Similar reasons one might use WriteRoom.
I agree with almost everything you've said here with the one exception being that an AR-15 is actually an excellent home defense weapon.

Drywall penetration depends on which tests you're looking at but generally speaking it penetrates walls less than or at least not more than any standard pistol or shotgun round and its more likely to fragment on impact.

As a sibling pointed out, the overall length of an AR is actually less than that of the commonly recommended shotgun, making it easier to handle in tight hallways. (Though its arguable that you shouldn't be doing much moving at all in such a scenario).

I would also add that the recoil on an AR-15 is vastly more manageable than a pistol or shotgun making you less likely to hit things you don't intend.

I'm in 100% agreement with the other stuff however. The "tacticool" segment of the market is basically adult dress-up.

Interesting. Wikipedia lists two pronunciations, neither of which I had been using (I was using a latin-like "ay" for the e instead of a long "ee"):

His brother was not particularly charismatic either, but he's a former 2-term president and also a former 2-term Texas governor.
In France, you'll get some of your information (name, address and line of business; financials are optional) published even if you hold personal liability. And as others have said, the public financial data is not very relevant if someone is trying to assess a company. It's also too complex for the consumer.

I think if we were to redesign the system from the start, it'd look more like Ebay with feedback and escrow. It wouldn't be enough and it'd need other protections, but my point is the current system doesn't work great neither for customers nor for entrepreneurs. And as a consequence, it may be that it stifles commerce and entrepreneurship.
He also quite explicitly said we need Latin American immigrants because we natives aren't as entrepreneurial as they are, a very bad position for this election, and something the base has been in frank revolt about since his brother's big 2006 push.

And, yeah, he was the anointed establishment candidate, raised 103 million for his super PAC in the first half of 2015, none of those play well in this election.

He's much more hapless than his brother on the campaign trail, as noted by others we've had enough of the Bush family, etc. etc.
Disclosure: I work for Daqri

No-one I've seen in the space is trying to do hard-AR. It's all transparent displays - us, Magic Leap, ODG, Hololens, etc.
Let me expand a little more on what I meant and see if it makes more sense to you:

Much about Go/Weiqi is still unknown even to the top players. For example Ke Jie (the current highest ranked player) feels that the current komi (compensation given to white for playing second) is too generous and he prefers white (last year he won almost all his white games). This is why professional players seem very excited about AlphaGo. If AlphaGo can consistently beat top players it may teach us more about the game. It may discover or settle questions about josekis (pattern conventions). It may tell us what komi is fair. It could settle questions about how a particular board position should be valued. On the other hand since it uses patterns learned from human plays, this could also motivate new theories of play that could defeat past strategies. Or if no one can come up with ways to defeat AlphaGo it may indicate the valuation function it produces is approaching ideal.

But AlphaGo is very much about combining existing tools of ConvNet and MCTS, albeit in a highly innovative manner, to solve the search problem of Go. Its success or failure could teach us a lot about how amenable the Go game is to such an approach (and potentially advance theories about the Go game), more than I would say about how in general problems in AI can be solved. That is what is learned here is very specific because Go is a very visual game and/or humans play it in a very visual way to take advantage of the massive parallelism of our vision system to quickly narrow down choices.
There are signs posted about dynamic speed bumps, and the speed limit. Speeding anyway is optional.

The right-wing militias ideologically lay claim to themselves as the successors of 18th century militias. In actuality, these militias were basically auxiliary military units set up at local levels to deal with low-level threats that required fast response--slave revolts and Indian raids being the main ones present. These sorts of threats have all but disappeared in the First World, so their modern counterparts (National Guard or Gendarme) end up doing very little.

The self-titled militia organizations, however, use a warped view of history that glorifies their role in the American Revolution, seeing themselves as the necessary vanguard against government oppression and particularly the potential oppressive nature of a standing army, which usually turns out to mean "I want to use this land that no one's using but the evil government won't let me."

To lend credence to their claims, they need to look the part of a militia--the part of a well-armed, well-trained soldier, while their ideology precludes them from gaining experience in an actual properly-trained military environment (it seems to me that there are very few ex-military in these militia groups, and most current and ex-military are as disdainful of these groups as the general populace). I rather suspect that even if they did end up fighting the US Army, they'd still do it in their uniforms because a) they'd be clearly recognizable as heroes then and b) they think they'd still win anyways.
This is what the debate is all about. The government wants to have surveillance of its citizens, but wants to call it something else.

> Arguably, they intended to use them to defend themselves if they were attacked. (By humans, yes.) They were not hunting people down and assaulting them.

Then again they overtly sought to institute their own court system, and overtly sought to subject government officials to trial for various crimes by that court system, and issued threats for non-cooperation with that effort, so its not at all clear that the end game, were they not arrested before that escalated further, wasn't "hunting down people and assaulting them".
Those "real" Windows laptops have smartphone CPUs (and less RAM than recent smartphones, to add insult to injury); and run in the same price spectrum as Chromebooks – there's $200 ARM Chromebooks, too.

Actually useful versions cost around $250+ in both cases.
It's this kind of stuff that has me boggled that they charge the same prices for apps in the store vs. apps on media or downloaded directly. Tha app store version is more conventient, maybe, but fundamentally less featured. I'm essentially buying just a license, not the app itself.
Object occlusion like they do with the floating robot is also really hard. It's easy to kind-of do, but hard to do that crisply.

I use It's All Text! with gvim, as well. It's a great tool when I have a lot of updates to do in large documents. That said, there is a vim mode for Atom, and this seemingly has the minor benefit of live updates to the textarea.

I suspect there are use cases where this makes sense, and, obviously, Atom is a more powerful editor than a browser textarea, though the key bindings may be similar.
I do the same as you, and I've never used atom. Maybe it has shortcuts or other similar configs that might be preferable to the standard text-box?

A niche that existed for years before and was filled by (slightly less useless) subnotebooks like the Macbook Air, or Thinkpad X series.

We've lost the value of any digital goods. People will balk at paying $.99 for a song they will one forever but won't think 2 seconds about dropping a $1 into the hat of a busker on the subway.
I just exchanged a bunch of other funds for VGENX. These companies are some of the most profitable in history. Even with the recent massive price collapse, this fund has outperformed the market since 1984.
Thanks for the proposal.
This would indeed be nice to have.
I am going to give it a try and if the result is good enough I will add this feature.

More than half of the Republican Party is. You don't need support of half of America to be a major party nominee (or even win the election, for that you just need more support than the other major party nominee -- ignoring the distorting effects of the electoral college system, which can actually let you win without even that, if your support has the right geographic distribution.)
I'm not sure I learned anything about them, but I do feel very centered now.
Crowbar isn't a diode, and it doesn't protect against reversed polarity, and it's a bad idea on the input because you're relying on the other device to limit current properly, when it's the other device which got the voltage wrong in the first place.
If we could only make them understand that forcing the good guys to not encrypt doesn't take encryption away from the bad guys. Legislators don't understand that encryption doesn't have to be made by Apple for the bad guys to have encryption. A shared key and XOR gives you unbreakable encryption. A high school comp sci. kid could implement that.
(Also a software engineer)

Yes, we've probably lost the value of good software a bit. The bigger issue is that I no longer judge the value of software based purely on a page (or app store description) advertising it. I need to try it out to see its value. So if the company is charging up front for the software, just about any amount seems too much.
The important thing is the content, not the style.

That's right, yet "I think therefore I am." I can prove that I exist and have conscious thought beyond your observation that the my actions are low-level survival instincts.

The only speculation is that they would, if not constrained by intervening events, carry out their overt threats in support of their overt goals. That's not a lot of speculation at all.
How's web development any different from other "branches" of software development when it comes to technical debt or deep dependency trees?!

It's been the norm in the field of software development since the early days to rely on other people's work for productivity reasons and many other objectives and consequently the trade-off of convenience with technical debt whether in implicit or explicit terms. I don't think that web development is more guilty of this "sin" than any other branch of the field.
Typecheck: Type checking facilities for Lua functions
Experience has taught me that C++ compilers generally don't agree on the code they will accept:
incomplete implementation of the standard (Visual C++ 2010 partial C++11 support), different non-standard header files (string.h vs memory.h), different warnings ( "possible loss of data" ), different error message conditions ( "not all control paths return a value" ).
I find it a lot easier not having to support several compilers, especially if Visual Studio's is one of them.

If the Visual Studio compiler was able to run on many platforms and target those platforms, it could definitely be a choice, as it compiles fast and generates fast code. However, for the moment, g++ allows me to ensure that my project properly builds for all desktop platforms, without having to setup compilation-dedicated virtual machines or worse, a jenkins build server ...

How are you going to avoid breaking things if you can't cross-compile before committing ?
Entry level Windows laptops and Chromebooks are competitive on price and specification. OEM Windows licensing is essentially free on these machines. The very cheapest Chromebooks (~$150) undercut the cheapest Windows laptops by using a Rockchip ARM processor, although this limits performance.

Users understand the value proposition of ChromeOS - it is more limited than Windows, but it is more reliable and secure. For many users, this is a very worthwhile tradeoff. Two of the ten best selling laptops on Amazon are Chromebooks.

I think from the demos, it's pretty clear they won't be ale to 'draw black' - BUT - I think thats probably OK. Additive only AR could still be a really cool product, could still be widely adopted, be worth $5 billion, change the world, etc...
Err, why not let everyone appeal their rating?

(I understand, percentage wise, due to bias or whatever, it's likely a higher percent of things would be overturned for women, but it's not like the error rate for non-women was 0 anyway, so why not just make a process that nobody is going to complain about?)
You have no idea. You also have to consider the colors of real things behind your fake things.
I think it's funny how much science fiction inspires current technology, but our expectations for quality are so much higher for real products than their sci-fi counterparts. In fact, in sci-fi advanced technology is often made inferior to be more relatable to current viewers/readers.

For example, the holograms in Star Wars: They are made to look lower quality than the world around them, so it's visibly clear this is a digital projection (and not teleportation or a wormhole or something). But could you imagine if Apple released a holographic "FaceTime3D", only the holograms were monochromatic, filled with scanlines, visual noise and crappy audio quality? Reviewers would blast it, and a poor experience like that could even do more harm than good to the popularity of AR.
Yes. For one, I don't trust myself to not accidentally hit a keyboard shortcut I'm used to using on my native editor, but happens to collide with an important function in the email client. I also despise gmail's interface in general these days.
