Re: Calling BS @J H Woods
But as soon as you have the code working the PHB will put it live. Its very important than nothing works until everything does.

Fear not for two reasons:
1) the new Pis are already 64bit and in 10 years time I'd imagine the Moore's last guess will mean that we will have 8 core 64b bit machines running on brownian motion power supplies and people will not be using the old 32 bit jobbies other than for fun.
2) Gel capacitors in all the power supplies are pretty much going to ensure any still running aren't.
Also could be a milk/lactose intolerance - I have something to cows milk (goat and sheep milk are fine???) and its amazing how much shit has cows milk or milk protein in. For coeliac it takes a time for the food to get to where it causes problems. Feeling sick straight after the meal points to something else and may indicate that its not eating this shit that is good for him but the not eating of something else. Its worth trying to find out what though it can be difficult as some things you can be intolerant to you can eat once in a while with no reaction and yet two or three days on the trot will - well give you the trots.
When tractors started out their great benefits were down to open API approach to things - the 3 point attachment was the same on all tractors and on all the equipment that would attach to it. Same for the PTO adaptor so basically you could buy a plough or a seeder from anyone and this helped keep the prices of things down.
I dont know if JD are trying to lock in which things you can stick on their tractors but at the local dealer I walk past with the dog I noticed some remarkable looking connectors on a large turnover plough that looked like it was specifically designed to be a bastard to get hold of so I'm wondering if you want to use a big turnover plough on a JD tractor it is 'best' to get a JD one with its custom sensors* that will connect into its proprietary tractor socket.
*I'm guessing they are for detecting the individual pull on each blade or something - the dog didnt want to stop long enough for me to work it out.
The thing is with a vehicle like this then sharing is a serious option. If I'm asleep or in the office for 8* hours I dont see why my car shouldn't be out earning its keep. Just need to design one without the door column so the interior can be swapped out easily for cleaning/battery charging.
*with luck by then the anal retentive manager who likes you to be in the office so he can reduce your productivity with constant interruptions and changes of course will have been replaced by a raspberrypi with a flat battery.
"they have to be manually programmed into computers and getting them wrong can cause loss of synchronisation"
Shit even I would have worked out the wrinkles in any automation code to do that - even if I had to do it at whichever midnight on new years eve was appropriate. Surely in 2017/2016/2017 no-one runs anything serious that relies on a manual time change?
Shirley?
Oh I dont know - I've always found Xmas the one time of the year where my home life collapses into something near hell* and yet the office is free of PHBs and much work can be done.
*The pubs are full of amateur drinkers, you cant get a decent meal out, the telly has nothing worth watching, you realise why people would rather sit in a kayak in a frozen sea and harpoon seals than be at home with the relatives. Christmas is why people want to go live on Mars ffs.
For most of us change is a pain - which is why MS forces updates on you. I reckon there will be a lot of kids (almost the whole of year 6 at my daughters school) who will be finishing the year familiar with Pixel, and more importantly familiar with developing code in Pixel and administrating (hacking) the Pis they are being taught on - and several have them at home.
I have a feeling a lot of them are going to be quite happy with Pixel on Pis and PCs and will only be booting into Win for games if they haven't got a dedicated games machine.
Maybe he could spend a few hours extending GIT so that you cant actually submit code to it that hasn't been through some automated testing and quality control first. As an anal retentive I try and use every possible automation of anything important.
Swearing is good though.
There are two types of accountants:
Those that cost the company money in the short term by making employees redundant and hiring them again as contractors.
And those that cost the company money in the long term by making employees redundant and hiring them again as contractors.
No - a proper pie has hot water crust pastry and is either pork or scotch. Other nearly but not quite as fantastic pies may use shortcrust - or indeed a whole variety of pastries. I've even made a steak and kidney using flaky pastry allround which was pretty damn good (my own special home made overhopped IPA [Intentionally for Pies Ale] helped) but you cannot beat a proper pork pie.
I've been experimenting with these things to see if they are really useful and most of them come out around 3/10. I personally prefer Zim (4/10) cos its basically piss-easy and nearly does what is needed and you can get web-pages at the end of it and even its shitty little web server means its actually pretty useful as an educational tool.
It seems good enough to actually help design, build and document what I hope will be its replacement which is a full-blown HTML5 wysiwyg front end on a nice database backend which will allow deep learnings of your own choice. If I ever finish the 1200 page book on deep learning that is!
You cant even some things through amazon. I bought some 100L pans for brewing here in the UK and found the exact same pans for 1/3rd the price on Amazon.fr. Tried to get some of those - they wont take a UK credit card - unless you VM from somewhere in France. Never got to the bottom of that - all the correspondence was in french and I never learned the bugger.
They say that every dollar spent on NASA generates 18 in the economy. I'm guessing a similar multiplier for defence spending in the US. Money doesnt just disappear* it flows around the system and is used many many times. The US are fully aware of this and I'd bet the stock market in the US will take a noticeable hit if Trump is not talked out of 'saving' taxpayers money.
*the UK seems to be able to make money disappear into bank black holes or offshore though.
Bob, I'd love to see a small area of some country where they try and emulate Ayn Rands childrens books as a way of actually living. The joy of seeing your food deliveries arriving and rotting at the bottom of the truck due to having to shell out for private provision of everything taxes currently cover that in private hands would be prohibitively gouging.
"But NEVER NEVER NEVER do they let the actual workers see prototypes or ask them if something will actually DO THE JOB"
If you get the people who actually know what to do with the data involved you may will finish the job. Unless that is you get some MBAs to ask them what's what. If I apply to do an MBA will they actually remove any logic circuits from my brain?
be around 1024 time less irradiative after 300 years. But 1000 of something that will kill you in a week means is will take 20 years to kill you. And you are assuming that it decays into something harmless - most things tend to keep decaying for many iterations. Caesium decays to radioactive barium 137 - which has gone in a few seconds but Pu238 goes to u234 which is around for 234,000 years and then to Thorium 234 for a month then off to Proactinuim.....
The thing about the wildlife is it mostly just dies. It doesnt wander into a clinic complaining of unusual symptoms.
What is good for the wildlife is there aren't many humans wandering around giving it lead poisoning so even if it is irradiated it gets a good chance of reproducing before dropping dead next to the tree that no-one hears fall.
systemd
free Linux distro Devuan releases second beta
So? I've been a faithful Ubuntu user for a few years but I now cant get a middle mouse button to work on my machines. Its marked as a kernel bug that even swallows any attempt to emulate the third button. Only another 37 kernel release to wait for the fix. I dont play games but I'd imagine steam might like a MMB and its a long way off on the standard releases.
Its not that there is no synthetic option - its would just be too costly. I think most vegans would be surprised to discover that almost all synthetic products have some animal products in them Biodiesel contains animal products - not just the fat from burgers but when leather is made the fat scraped of the skins is boiled down and goes in along with your chip fat.
To make animal free synthetics you'd probably have to build a whole new production line and supply chain for everything.
"If you're calling someone else's attitude to animal rights stupid then you're acting superior." No we're not asking you to live by our rules but you seem to expect everyone else to live by yours.
You just need to be aware that if you co-exist with meat eaters you are going to be contaminated.
