I used to do this years ago, but the amount of spam become overwhelming. I eventually ended it when I started receiving shady emails for a company with a domain name similar to mine, when the sender made a typo in the destination address.
rsmith@gmail.com and r.smith@gmail.com are exactly the same email address. Same for r.s.m.i.t.h@gmail.com.
That problem usually happens when you use the email r.smith@gmail.com and the sender is trying to email rsmith2@gmail.com, but forgets the number and instead emails rsmith@gmail.com. I get that kind of emails very often, too, but I can't see what google could do here.
The one in Spain crashed because it was going to fast around the corner because the driver was texting on his phone.
He was not texting, he was talking on the phone, receiving instructions from the train company about the route farther ahead (it was not a warning about the corner). But that is probably irrelevant since he was already too fast when he got the call, one minute before the crash. Even if he noticed the corner, I don't know if one minute would be enough to slow down the train to a safe speed.
You mean like this?
So is this review still accurate for the new Bioshock?
One thing that annoys me, though, is that when I start something on a secondary monitor, it opens on the primary one. Anyone knows how to fix that?
One way is to ask for his advice on your work. In reviewing it, he may pick up some of your ideas and implement them.
Or maybe he will say something like this:
"Why do you create so many objects and methods! Object instantiation and method calls are costly. It's not easy to allocate memory for new objects and the more you do it the more memory fragmentation becomes an issue. Method calls can disrupt the processor pipeline and prevent the best use of the cache. All this can really slow down our application and increase its memory footprint. Please don't do that, instead put everything in a single static method, which will only be called once and suffer no performance penalties. Hey, since I'm ahead of schedule, I'll be glad to give you a hand on improving your code. All of that overhead will be history in no time
That's more than I pay for shared web hosting with "unlimited" everything, including shell access and the ability to set up my own private Git / Hg / Svn repositories.
They will probably make a mess out of it... Last time I went to Staples, I wanted to print some chapters from an Open Publication License book and a datasheet for a Microchip ethernet controller. They refused to print the book without written permission from the publisher, even though the Open Publication License was clearly stated. As for the datasheet, they wanted to charge me a copyright tax because it has "© 2004 Microchip Technology Inc." on the cover...
I said "no thanks" and ended up printing everything on a small mom and pop shop, no fuss at all. Plus no fee for handling USB pen drive, no waiting for almost an hour while someone prints a few hundred photos or decides on wedding invitations, and cheaper prices...
Funny, your comment reminds me of a teacher I had, he used to say the same thing with almost the same words. You're not from Portugal, are you?
It was not completely discarded, it was canceled after all the criticism, but they already said they're revising the proposal and will present it again.
Rotate Right? What's the relevance in this story?
There are a large number of great USB to serial port adapters on the market and they're not too expensive either.
Don't waste your money on cheap USB to serial port adapters from ebay. I bought one really cheap and it gave me nothing but trouble. They even sent a free replacement, but nothing would work with it. I heard good things about FTDI adapters, next time I consider buying one that will be my choice.
I don't know about that, but I have a feeling the US will activate its emergency broadcast system in the near future...
Yes, that's true. When I talked about injection attacks I was thinking more about using this to run JSON-like strings of code when you don't trust the source.
I'm always looking for a new idea that will be more productive than its cost. -- David Rockefeller
