Hmmm, if I search a string for "\t" and it returns the position, does it count "\t" as 1 or 2 characters? I could totally test this myself but I figure if someone knows I won't have to. xP
Oh, you mean with technology? You're not very good at this game are you? You don't cater to the technologists. You cater to the people. The mob. The citizenry. I don't tell anyone that I have to support to get an Android phone.
The following is a list of publicly traded companies having the greatest market capitalization, as well as government-owned corporations by estimated market value. Market capitalization is calculated from the share price (as recorded on selected day) multiplied by the number of shares issued. Figures are converted into USD millions (using rate from selected day) to allow for comparison.
Some state-owned companies are far larger than even the largest public corporation. For example Saudi Aramco's value is estimated from $781 billion to $7 trillion USD, more than a dozen times the size of ...
The Oregon Trail is a computer game originally developed by Don Rawitsch, Bill Heinemann, and Paul Dillenberger in 1971 and produced by the Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium (MECC) in 1974. The original game was designed to teach school children about the realities of 19th century pioneer life on the Oregon Trail. The player assumes the role of a wagon leader guiding his party of settlers from Independence, Missouri, to Oregon's Willamette Valley over the Oregon Trail via a Conestoga wagon in 1848. The game has been released in many editions since the original release by various ...
If I output numbers in place of each space that should exist, I get @param11234Integer11234intervals123The but if I output to represent the space, I end up with @param Integer intervals The -.- It's obviously inserting the correct number of spaces as demonstrated by the numbers. I don't understand what's happening here.
I have never had the chance to improve a suggested edit, but someone suggested a edit on one of my posts and I improved and it created a new revision -.- is this normal? meta.stackoverflow.com/posts/145111/revisions
@jcolebrand Like the guy who harasses people for making casual comments (in a casual chat room) well beyond the point where the other person is interested in contributing.
That's not a conversation, it's ranting. And it's rude.
@Purmou you didn't say "I hope google wins" you said "Google is going to cream Apple" (or was it "own" or "beat", I forget)
@Purmou I don't want to jump on their bandwagon either, I'm strictly speaking from a commercial capitalistic point of view. They simply DOMINATE the entire industry when it comes to mobile devices, and consumer electronics.
so, i'll leave you to your distorted opinion of stock markets and overpriced products and the number of iPhones, iPads, and iMacs you see people using everyday somehow affecting which way a patent lawsuit will go
when you apply for a job and it's 50/50 that you'll get it, you don't tell yourself you did well and that you're getting the job? just to make yourself a little more confident?
Let me put it like this: when I last applied for jobs, I sent out two resumes. I had interviews at both organizations. I knew that I needed to make the move to Shreveport (for family reasons) so I called NASA Johnson and told them I wasn't going to take the job. Even without a firm offer from Shreveport.
Most software developers send out a half dozen or more resumes and sweat the details
I have a certain confidence because I'm constantly weighing details
I still take risks
and I still get elated
but I know the factors and don't rely on blind luck
@Purmou not really ... that should be the prime point. Those are all (well, once were) pending lawsuits between companies, following the arrows. Shows just how much potential there is for various outcomes, and why no outcome can be "guaranteed"
Barreleyes, also known as spook fish (a name also applied to several species of chimaera), are small deep-sea argentiniform fish comprising the family Opisthoproctidae. Found in tropical-to-temperate waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.
These fish are named for their barrel-shaped, tubular eyes which are generally directed upwards to detect the silhouettes of available prey; however, according to Robison and Reisenbichler these fish are capable of directing their eyes forward as well. The family name Opisthoproctidae is derived from the Greek words opisthe ("behind") and pro...
