Okay, now tell me what’s wrong about not being fat and diabetic. Note I certainly don’t endorse veganism where you’re missing out on essential fats and proteins.
While Dorsey is rather extreme, his lifestyle is a lot healthier than the average American’s or most everyone’s in the developed world. Eating junk food around the clock is really bad for you. Note that Dorsey isn’t fat and diabetic like so many people these days.
I’m not aware of any such relationship in Japan. The exhibition didn’t mention it, and I haven’t heard of it elsewhere either. I think it’s just decorative here.
They may have seen battle but if so as commanders from the rear where visibility to the troops was paramount. If they had seen actual close combat those elaborate decorations probably would not have survived. Also, there were many plainer helmets at the exhibition. I think a samurai expecting real combat would have chosen one of those.
That was the first and only one I had seen, too. I suppose there may be a few more but they certainly seem to be rare. This exhibition had no other examples. The helmet with a flame-engulfed dragon that was shown mounted on an armor suit comes closest.
This is honestly a very inconsequential release as far as the project is concerned. But after JavaFX got split off from the general Java SE distribution following Java 11, it’s simply no longer acceptable for some small GUI application like the demo suite here to require JavaFX. Require tens of MB from a third-party site to run the demo app, or rewrite in Swing? Unfortunately, despite Swing’s relative inferiority the choice is clear.
Completely missing the point. Of course calorie reduction works as long as it is followed. But people have a very strong desire to regularly eat their fill. With intermittent fasting this is part of the diet by design. With daily calorie restriction it’s impossible. Compliance with daily calorie restriction always lapses over time for this reason, so people return to their former fatness. Intermittent fasting is possible to maintain for the rest of your life, daily calorie restriction usually is not.
I just saw the update notice myself (on Windows) but the numbering was bizarre and I couldn't find any official announcement or download, so I just killed and deleted the Java Update Scheduler instead. Useless as of JDK 11 anyway due to changed licensing. Did Oracle get hacked?
I've had serious reliability issues with every Dell or Alienware product I've bought. Yes, the specifications look great and they seem to work fine at first, but quality is simply ridiculously bad for such expensive products.
Indeed, I only use UML for documentation of existing code. Having a standard allows for consistent reverse-engineering, and a class diagram is still the best way to visualize an OOP class hierarchy.
Keeping them up to date with the code is an issue, as with all documentation. I actually wrote my own Java class diagrammer [1] for that purpose so I can just re-run a project file to create updated diagrams of the current code base, with little or no editing required.
Sorry for the downtime, took me a while to correct the post. It's now up again.
As some commenters have pointed out I had a stupid bug in my sample code where I misused the static object creation counter as an object instance identifier. Hence some very strange results I couldn't explain. With that bug fixed, method references now behave as expected (which is still notably different from lambda expressions).
It's something of an article of faith that front-mounted teleconverters are worthless. Well, they really aren't... assuming you are ready to spend enough money and accept some vignetting. Also, you might want to use a tripod!
Is that for server-client or fat client applications? For the latter, Java today offers the WebView class (part of JavaFX) that's simply an integrated Webkit browser. You can build your UI for HTML5 and easily hookup with the main Java program. I wrote a brief overview last year, along with other options for fat client HTML5 frontends: http://news.kynosarges.org/2013/12/29/webview-the-other-java...
The original headline ends in a question mark, cites one person from Twitter who claims a 2004 (?) conversion, and still provides no explanation why any government might possibly want to serve TrueCrypt a warrant, given that they don't store user data (unlike Lavabit) and all their source code was open anyway.
My use of the term "holographic" was taken directly from Ng's dissertation, near the end of section 3.7: "...Camahart showed that holographic stereograms can be synthesized from light fields." Whether he's strictly correct with his use of the term I don't know.
Ng also mentions working with Zebra Imaging on printing such "holograms" [sic], so that's certainly a possible application. I'm not sure a lot of consumers would be interested in that, though, compared to simply showing pictures.
Further clarification: The manifest is the same you'd use for native applications. Microsoft automatically enables DPI awareness for WPF because that framework scales all coordinates automatically with DPI settings. WinForms doesn't do that. It requires extra code for proper DPI scaling, hence you need to manually apply the manifest if you have done that extra work. (Auto-generated Visual Studio projects might automatically provide both the necessary rigging and manifest, not sure.)
Microsoft has addressed it since WinForms 1.0, except that it's unfortunately not automatic. You need to include a simple application manifest that enables the dpiAware flag, as described here:

It seems to me that stack ranking can only work for companies that are so attractive for new talent that any new hires are likely to be more valuable than the lowest-ranked current employees. Once a company is no longer so attractive, as seems to be the case with Microsoft today, you're actually pushing out better talent in exchange for worse.
I'm thinking of what the article said, "doing a good job for Microsoft's shareholders" as Ballmer claimed. He did in fact not do that. Please look up the share price, it has been flat below $40 during his entire reign. And MS isn't issuing some amazing dividend either.
The premise is wrong. Ballmer grew Microsoft profits but he did not maximize profits for Microsoft shareholders. In fact MS share price was famously flat for far too long, and jumped 8% when Ballmer announced his resignation. It's Apple and not Microsoft which delivered amazing shareholder profits. Some basic fact checking before writing an article would be nice.
