In your contract, you should have acceptance tests specified. The contractor that hires you should test and approve the product. If it's not what they want, contains bugs, or is not as specified by them, they should not accept. When they have accepted the product, they should pay for bugs. You should agree about this before starting.
For now, fix those bugs, and think of it as a good and valuable lesson.
God, it brings back memories: an 8086 with 256k of RAM, 8 1/2" floppies....
Using / as the main way of navigating spreadsheets...
1-2-3 you gave me my start, not just in spreadsheets, but in computers. Thank you and goodbye, old friend.
Sniff.
I remember SuperCalc, on my SuperBrain... CP/M, 64KB RAM, monochrome, two 160KB floppies, and one of them could fit the OS, Wordstar, Supercalc, DBase II and many other programs on it. And thank god for double sided floppies which required flipping of course. Yeah flipping floppies those were the days!
Do you understand how most parliamentary governments work? Parties dedicated to individual themes come together and form larger coalitions. Unlike in countries with a two-party system, parties aren't under pressure to be all things to all people.
...enviromental degradation...
The Greens are usually seen as a natural partner for The Pirate Party in any coalition.
Parties dedicated to individual themes - we call the one issue parties. These parties have one or two key things they want to achieve. Having two or three of these parties is not a big problem, but many small parties like this completely lock up the system, because it becomes impossible to get a coalition. It's always trading. When I support you here, you support my one issue. Only problem here is when these issues conflict, apart from the time it takes to get everyone together. And then one party threatens to leave the "party", essentially holding the rest hostage.
It's the way it works, it's democracy in the 21st century, but it's not working to create a better place to live.
Higher voltage? I thought it was just higher current.
No it could actually be higher voltage, 5V (or 5.25) compared to 4.8 or something like that.
And the truth is, meat actually isn't all that expensive. If it were, maybe there would be pressure for this or other "extreme measures", but as it farming techology keeps improving at a much faster rate than demand for meat. In real terms, meat is cheaper now than at any point in human history, and we should be proud of that.
More and more people in India and China alone earn more and more money and want to eat more meat. They are not big meat eaters like in the US, they simply cannot afford it, but they can afford a little bit more. And because they are so many, they take up a increasing part of the market. For each cow we can produce 10x the food in weat and corn etc. The result is that for every cow we lose 10x the food production in other products, so we lose 90% of production capacity. I don't know of any method that can handle this.
Well, happiness and smartness are quite mutually exclusive.
No kidding. I'd love to see a study about whether there's a connection between depression and high IQ.
"It has been thought in the past that there is a correlation between giftedness and depression or suicide. This has generally not been proven." (Source)
Yeah he'd have an "ammonia leak" in his pants.....
Being Howard Wolowitz, yellow stains in your pants can be pretty cool!
Why is a build management tool doing exposed in the internet?
What's the point of building automation if you have to be in the building to use it?
Automation of course!
I just read those two lines under that nice picture.
Some analysts say the half-dozen missiles showcased at the military parade were fakes.
So the ones they showed in a parade are fakes. Now how smart do you have to be to decide to use fakes in a parade? I mean, you have maybe only two of them working, maybe only one, or maybe even six in good condition. Why take the risk that something happens while showing them off? Showing them in a parade means they are not ready to use if the US or the South attacks. (How unlikely this might be to us, they have a different perspective.) The decoys might be empty ones that will be used later. That each of them has differences only shows that they are working on them.
I posit that the machine exists. Beat that!
1 bit, therefor I am.
You already can make assassination weapons from schematics from Internet - if you have skills and good understanding of physics involved.
This is why 3D printed guns are a game changer: the average Joe Blow can get himself a gun without needing any sort of gunsmithing skills.
Another game changer: you can melt them when the crime is done. No hassles with getting rid of the gun, just melt it. Traces on bullets won't have any value then.
I believe that angle is called "parallel". As in, parallel to the slot in the ZipDrive.
As opposed to serial, where it eats like the cookie monster!
Opstelten has had some help of Robert Mickelson, a notorious child porn producer and child rapist, who used truecrypt. His crimes caused a lot of sheeple to switch sides.
It's not his case that caused them to switch sides. It's the way the prosecutor uses this to support his case, it's the way certain (typically conservative) media use it to feed the fear and confirmation that their customers want, and politicians go along with this trend to not loose the support of their voters.
Batteries.
Wrong audience! I propose beer, and free of course. We're all for free, so why not beer! It can be a great powersource if those google people would put some effort in it, and if not, it will prove that google is on the right way with that other vehicle.
Is the "harm" caused to Firefox's reputation worth any punitive damages? They don't sell Firefox and can't really claim loss of revenue. Maybe they can claim loss of donations to Mozilla?
Less downloads is less sponsoring from Google. But what does revenue have to do with this? Is this capitalistic brain washing that instructs you that you cannot do anything unless money is involved?
Science may someday discover what faith has always known.
