Yeah, but gambling is illegal in Japan.

To compare, in most casinos, the casino itself sells you the chips and buys them back. No need to fuss about location since it's all done in one place.

In the Pachinko system, you go into the "casino", spend money on a machine, win the "chips" yourself, then go to another "casino" nearby to sell the "chips" for actual cash.

I got one saying my experience with Go would "be a good fit" with a company.

My Go codebase at the time, on that account, consisted largely of hacky products, no tests, no web-server stuff, high coupling and complexity, and below average documentation. If that indicates experience with a language, I'm almost afraid to ask what WOULDN'T be a good fit.

That, and their stated "real-time" requirements for said company's product made me laugh.

It may be because I haven't had my coffee yet, but how would using OR help here? 1 OR 0 OR 0 returns 1, but the host was offline in 2 of the past 3 months, which means that it should be 0...

This is the one thing that I was looking for in an alternative to Sync. It made me sad that the main alternative to it didn't have this.

The in-article version has a time.Sleep(2 * time.Second) after the scan loop. Not exactly reliable (waitgroups or channel signaling would be better) but better than nothing.

Well, that whole file can be improved on (for instance: analyzeDomains and analyzeDomain can be combined into one; the range/close operators can be used on a channel), but the pattern itself (spawning a certain amount of workers instead of one for each job) is decent for certain cases. For this case, you may be right (I haven't tested it), since a) not much data is transferred, and b) He was running this on an AWS instance instead of a low-end machine.

However, at a certain point, you may encounter bandwidth issues, timeouts, and the like due to local network congestion; that pattern has its uses there. I've tried writing a downloader that downloads every file it's given at once, and it went about as well as one would expect.

That thread is from 2013.

Depends on which distributions patch gcc to enable it by default. From what I'm aware, a lot of them do, though.

I recall my high school computer science courses. They consisted of us writing stuff in DrJava, using a framework our teacher made to abstract some Java-specific things away. We ran the programs we made within it, without going into the command line. It was quite a simple IDE, but it allowed us to get things done without using a command line.

I've been bugged by the "Verified by Visa" thing in the last month when trying to add Skype credit for my parents. Completely stupid implementation that didn't even work; I clicked "cancel" and my Skype transaction still went through.

Wait, you actually had Valve do customer support? I think that's rarer than getting Google customer support, to be honest.

Got any examples of this? It seems interesting.

Concurrency doesn't rely on the number of available processing cores. You're thinking of parallelism.

> There wasn't any downside to piling them on, nobody in the game gave two shits whether or not you were man or machine. No quests really changed if you were really chopped up. It just felt phoned in and handwaved.

I agree with the rest of your post, but this was pretty much explained by saying that ALL the augs Jensen has are already installed in him at the beginning of the game. Them being unlocked as the game goes on had more to do with Jensen getting used to controlling them (as opposed to having them installed and being able to use them then and there).

I would definitely consider unintended behaviour from limitations bugs, though.

How about C itself? Hello World is about 850 lines of code after you run the preprocessor on it.

It's a site run by bitcoiners. I'm not sure what you expected.

Actually, now that I thought about it a bit, it's a perfect metaphor for the current bitcoin environment.

Way to completely miss the point and spin it in a different direction.

It's not proof that _he_ necessarily removed it, but considering it wasn't brought down by the actual repo maintainer, and that any repos created to replace it by other users at the time were taken down as well, it's a safe assumption that someone at GH did.

There's several more sources regarding this, but I'm on a terrible mobile connection at the moment. Googling around will get you a bit more info for the story.

Sure. The two most popular examples are the C Plus Equality repo and the Operation Disrespectful Nod repo, which were a satirical programming language and a Gamergate resource list for contacting advertisers, respectively.

Github has been known to remove files and repositories simply because employees don't like them, despite them not actually breaking any ToS. They've also been known to block access to files/repos to users in certain countries. I wouldn't be surprised if attacks on those repos would cause it to get removed.

I don't know about OSX, but most of the Windows dialogs I see can easily be copypasted. Ctrl-C the dialog box, open a text editor/new email/et c, Ctrl-V it in. Unless you're doing something convoluted and making your own error dialogs.

goto is merely a tool that got a bad rap simply because it has its roots in basic assembler, back before structured programming was a thing. I agree with you regarding its use, but I'm still surprised by just how many seemingly educated programmers jump onto the "never use goto" cargo cult because of a paper title that they misattribute to Djikstra.

Ironically, from the code I've seen, I don't think I've ever seen anyone actually misuse goto, probably because the people who use it actually know what they're doing. That's just anecdotal on my part, but still.

I would say it's the latter. A majority of questions that I've found on SO that helped me solve a problem or answer a question have been marked as non-constructive. I don't know why people would do that from a logical perspective, but I can see how having the ability to moderate discussion would make one overzealous with this sort of thing.

I have to deal with uC++ for the term. I'm not quite sure how to feel about it. On the one hand, it does make it a bit easier to write concurrent programs. On the other hand, I would have been more comfortable with Boost or almost any other language to learn about concurrent systems.

Rogers in Canada used to do this. I'm not sure if they still do, though, because that incident alone caused me to switch over to another DNS server.

The criticism is with the name, not the features tested.

>They removed WarZ

Actually, they didn't. All the developers did was have it relisted under a different name ("Infestation: Survivor Stories").

Sorry if I implied that you pre-wrote it; I meant that more along the line of "I've answered this question multiple times already, so I know more or less what to say".
