@user13500 Lol. Well I'd say, choose something else to define your self-worth by. There's 7 billion people on this planet, something would be wrong if a few didn't downvote you.
Maybe we should have a badge for people who post questions that manage to hit 5 different close reasons. Being bad in a way that makes it so that the voters can't agree on what is the worst in the question is kind of an achievement.
Should there be an image approve queue? Instead of 1ptr's not being able to post images, they should be approved? I mean; that should (presumably) be a rather quick list to approve with low level requirement on review ability?
@JasonC: Yes, I get that. My thought is that it is much less effort to approve a image then (as it usually goes) some one editing the post including images, and in worst case that persson being low rep and as such that edit again has to be approved.
@user13500 Well, we're not obligated to edit image links in posts though. If somebody chooses to do that, it means that they voluntarily want to, and are presumably totally OK with the amount of effort required. Also the edit review queue is small and manageable, so it's not a big deal when those types of edits get added to it.
@Doorknob That's pretty cool. But wouldn't it make more sense to just e.g. post on Charcoal HQ and encourage others to do the same? cv-plz is pretty much implied there.
@Doorknob Productive = Me writing an ethernet-based bootloader for this embedded system solely so that I can work on the real firmware without getting off the couch later. ... Despite the fact that the bootloader still requires me to get off the couch to flash and test it.
My school apparently thinks it's a wonderful idea to have all the students' passwords for everything be the same 6-digit ID that's fairly easily recovererable by any student. That's why I always secretly use a passphrase for everything instead, and gmail instead of school-provided email :P
I wish I could go to something like this. I am going to a Duke TIP thing after getting qualifying SAT scores, and I picked the programming-related class as my first choice, so I hope I get into that :D
I've got a weekend full of debugging firmware issues on physically inaccessible hardware with an un-reproducible failure that occurs about once every 5 months on average per device, and only at this particular site. Woo hoo. \o
A user copy-pasted a closed question (exactly) so that he could answer it, rather than even making the slightest of an attempt to reopen or improve the original question.
There were quite a number of inappropriate comments on both questions.
I have build a program that asks the user to input a number, and output the message "Hello world" that number of times. But now I must have a separate method which outputs the set of messages. And I don't Understand what to do. Would somebody could create a example on the given code which I have...
How do Java threads work on single-core and more-core machines?
If I understood correctly, process = one or more threads.
Now imagine more processes, and so we have lots of threads.
Now, there are two cases for the machine architecture:
1) single-core
2) multi-core
In the single-core case, d...
In the single-core case, do all the threads share the core concurrently?
Uh no. In a single-core case, nothing runs "concurrently" or at least no two threads or processes are running at the same time. The OS and the JVM give the threads time slices of the single processor. Multiple thread...
