Any desktop applications still using java should probably stop assuming an installed JVM and bundle one. Has a few drawbacks, obviously.

Enrico Fermi's comment on how to manage the unknown is very instructive.

I'd like to read that comment, but a quick google search didn't bring up anything. Any pointers?
Great, if the customer is prepared to pay for n sprints, without knowing n before the end of the project.
You meant to say:
fool me once, shame on
shame on you.
Fool me
you can't get fooled again
While combination medicines are normally frowned upon, this particular one is actually more effective than either asprin or paracetamol alone in an equivalent dose, especially for stronger pain.
I'd say acetaminophen on its own is not the best medicine for a headache - doesn't work for me very well, either. The comination with aspirin and coffein (i.e. Excedrin) is actually the recommended medicine for a "tension headache". I respond very well to Ibuprofen (does that have a weird US marketing name, too?).
Wouldn't it be better to pay directly in Bitcoin? Let's say you get a choice using the product for "free" with ads or removing them in different packages (1 Week, 1 Month, Unlimited). It would be a fair model for payment and you could decide yourself if mining would be worth it or buying the bitcoins would be better. Transaction cost is pretty low even for very small amounts of Bitcoin as far as I know.
All foods are atheist. At least, I've never met or heard of any food that claimed that it believed in a god.
Depends on your definition of "food".
It's the 80/20 rule:
- Never estimate less than 80 hours
- Multiply estimate by 20
Let's try to switch it further: Mario as the bad guy, DK must be rescued. Maybe DK has a daughter?
In what version of java is this legal?
I think his point was, Java is harder because it does not allow that style of coding.
Just for the record, I don't agree. The line looks too complicated to be understood efficiently.
I'd say durability is relative... If a commit is written to a commit log on disk before it is reported successful, it may be _more_ durable than holding it in memory, but it can still get lost (drive failure, catastrophic event at the site of the server). So while there may even be a few orders of magnitude between the "durability values" of the two approaches, I'm not sure it is correct to say one is durable, while the other is not.
In particular, writing: It's designed that right-handers are dragging the writing implement behind their hand in a smooth gliding motion. For left-handers we're smashing the point into the page in front of our hand, making it highly variable and irregular (a non-equilibrium), and then also smearing the hand over what we just wrote. Truly a pain. That's specifically the reason why my uncle (for example) was forced to switch by my grandparents tying his left hand behind his back.
I have proposed that lefties learn to write upside-down, so you would be starting in the lower right corner and go left from there, then move up a line. For people that can't read upside-down, they just need to rotate the paper by 180 degrees.
Unfortunatly, none of the left-handed people I know have reacted positively to my suggestion. Don't know why.
Well, AIM came from AOL which never really operated anywhere but in the US.
Just a few points to add: AOL was fairly widespread in Germany, and with it the AIM. Also, when AOL acquired ICQ, they connected the networks.
It's probably all WhatsApp and Facebook IM these days, although I stopped using IM networks.
