Cool! Thanks.

Indeed, it's very unfortunate that tmux doesn't run on windows (under cygwin).

Countries like Norway and Sweden have 25% VAT. 24% for Finland, 21% for Belgium and the Netherlands.

There's plenty of choice really.

Doesn't appear to work on my lumia 800. Just says "Loading..." infinitely.

It's a bit worse than that. There's a dedicated button on every Windows Phone (that I know of) used for searching with Bing. You can't change the search engine that's used, you just have to live with it.

It's hard referring to something as a "default" search engine when you can't change to another search engine.

A lot of them are bread for milk too... (Whether they're having fun is another question, the ones that are allowed to graze outside probably are, the ones that never see the light of day probably aren't).

The first job listing on your page, under "Top 5 requested jobs" being "Sr Software Developer - Cloud Servers" at Rackspace has already been filled according to the rackspace URL the website provides. It doesn't give a good impression if the first thing you look at isn't available anymore.

I wonder if devices like that are good for Android, or bad. One the one hand they can bring Android who otherwise wouldn't have had the money to afford a device, but on the other hand the default browsing experience is apparently quite slow and it doesn't support the Google Play Store[1].

Yes, but apparently by limiting the detection area to a rectangular segment of a plane (or a photonic fence, as they call it). Don't get me wrong, what they did is pretty cool and I could imagine placing something like that near a window, but it's still less useful than a system that has a 360 degree field of view.

I've thought about that, but mosquito's are small and hard to detect. You'd need quite a high resolution camera (or realistically two, to compensate for the parallax between the camera and the laser) combined with some serious software to spot mosquitos at the other end of the room.

Same for Belgium.

After chrome upgrades itself, a "Restart Chrome" button appears in the "About Chrome" window.

That's funny. If the USA asks the Belgian government to jump, they only ask "how high?".

A small example: all international bank transfers within Europe (through SWIFT, located in Brussels), are all sent to the USA. Because they need that stuff to catch terrorists. Apparently the US can (and have) even interceped money.

Does paraffin melt at body temperature? Not even core body temperature, hand temperature at a time when the air temperature is substantially lower.

Maybe there's some way to lower the melting point of paraffin?

Knocking someone unconscious isn't exactly easy or reliable, especially when you're both in the water. If you really want them to pass out, you might as well start pushing them under water (or wait until they loose consciousness from drowning) or choking them.

For the hardware, I'd assume?

You guessed right, see the key on top.

This is also something that's often seen in oscilloscopes. For example, many Agilent scopes can be upgraded by buying a key.

The impact for users is twofold. On the one hand users that don't upgrade still have to pay for a few (unused) components. On the other hand, if users decide they want to upgrade later on, they don't have to throw away/sell their 800$ scope or send it back to the factory. You can buy the basic model when you have the money and upgrade later.

It might be a bit awkward to buy something you pretty much own already, but it's still the most rational option.

If only humans were more rational...

In Belgium it's something like that too (for people with a master degree).

For those, you have a filter that archives them and gives them a label. If you want to read them, open the label.

"Vand" is apparently Danish for "water". I guess the author isn't very good with languages.

Isn't it possible to be afraid of more than one thing?

I prefer "Sent from my phone". Why on earth would I advertise my particular brand of phone?

There are some problems with that method though.

If, for example, you'd like to reverse the condition, you can't write

    if (!(MouseEvent *mouse = dynamic_cast<MouseEvent *>(event)))
    {}

because a definition is not a general expression, but was only added as an "extra" to allow its use in some cases in conditionals.

I tried it with both the stable version the github page links to and the latest beta version on http://smartdeblur.net/. Other than changing the blurryness to blockyness, it doesn't seem to do a whole lot. [1]

Maybe it works better on motion blur e.g. because with motion blur all of the information is still there (just overlayed or convoluted in some other way), while this image is just an interpolated version of a smaller image that doesn't contain as much information.

It's definitely possible that someone else might be able to change some program settings for the better though.

I think we might have different definitions of living in the middle of nowhere. If you live in the middle of nowhere, how are you supposed to get contracting work?

I guess it's possible to work 100% remotely, but in my experience most companies would like to meet you at least once before hiring you. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's not easy as someone in college (unless you want to go the hire-me-for-a-dollar-or-two oDesk/... way, but in that case the experience isn't likely to help you land a good job).

Then you might as well buy the .github TLD and give everyone their own yourpagename.github url.

The amount of startup capital required to make a sustainable supply of man-made diamonds is probably pretty high.

Iceland isn't (yet) a member of the EU though.

None that I know of. I've never heard anyone in the news seriously suggest a ban of pornography.
