The short answer is that they have nukes.

To be fair, there were a few years between when thee country was founded and five years ago.

The real answer is whichever is easiest. If you've got a master branch and it's a pain to switch, then I wouldn't do it. If you've got a badass coder who is disturbed by the terminology, then I'd say to do it to keep the peace. It depends on the situation.

A minute thirty-five times is thirty-five minutes.

You know that thing you do, where you write some code and then realize you need a main function to execute it? And then you write your main function, but it's not really your main function, it's a bunch of half commented test code to make sure that the important code works?

Do that in a unit test, and when you're done testing that particular piece, add some assertions and move on to the next piece of functionality. Boom, test driven development.

I hate to throw out this old chestnut, but "correlation does not equal causation." Just because religion existed in one form or another in almost every single culture, does not mean it's necessary for morality. As I mentioned previously, lots of social structures existed in early societies that had things to say about morality. That doesn't mean they were necessary precursors.

Depending on where you get the AK, the only difference between the prop and the real on might be a bolt lol Chinese AKs are mostly plastic, I think.

Rubber band in the middle is trying to contract, pulling the top of the table up, and the chains keep it level?

For a moment I thought you said "unable to glow". And I was like- I'm not sure they'll be able to avoid it.

I recently acquired two used blade servers and a short rack to put them in. I'm planning to use one or the other as the replacement for a media server that died on me a bit ago. The old media server was just a little refurb dell workstation, with a single SSD in it, but the servers have 6 and 8 bays, respectively.

I would like to RAID them so that one drive dying doesn't lose any of my media, and I was leaning towards Ubuntu server as an OS. I'm not sure how to do that, and I'm kind of poking around for info and advice. Hit me with it.

 
 
 

I'm working on a parsing library for mil-std-1553 messages. It's a fun, minimal project that doesn't currently exist as far as I can tell.
