As a software developer I can't agree more to this statement. I can write code and make good unit tests. Ask me to perform user level tests and I'll do ok. Get a dedicated tester on that same interface and they'll find things I could not.
Dedicated testers are a must. The best environment is...
I never played Destiny. I would have if the story were even close to as good as this Penny Arcade's comic's

"free" is relative. It's free upfront but what about the contract that goes with it? $60-90 a month + 2 year contract? There's the cost of the phone and then some.
Comparing prices:
Flip phone - $5
Simple 300 minute plan/month - $20 every 3 months
Cost per year: $80 per year with a $5 up...
Same age and same situation. I'm always near a computer so what's the need for a $500 phone that'll cost me unforetold amounts per month for inferior performance and access? ($20 every 3 months for my $5 flip phone)
For waiting rooms a good book is still the best option.
I agree that the 2nd amendment needs to by thrown on the street and shot.
The 4th is still very important in protecting individual rights.
The 1st is very powerful and it does open holes like allowing the KKK and nazi skin-heads to exist in the US but it is so powerful in protecting individual...
$2 to cover costs and he loses money each year he does this. That sounds like a profit venture worth investing in!
Just more cock-sucking lawyers being asses.
Remember corporations are people! Just like I, as a person, can create a new person out of thin air and say they are my parent. Then after that divide myself into multiple different people all who originated from the new parent.
Correction to my last post:
Comcast and qwest put 250,000 into the fight in the last longmont vote.
Though i'm sure they paid much more to get the a law passed that requires Colorado cities to vote to pass a referendum in order to have the ability to build fiber; at least there was the ability...
This is not government takeover. It was a decision by the people of the city in a vote. (Took 2 votes as Comcast spent huge amounts of money many millions fighting it with ads/commercials the first time around (F you Comcast, no one wants you!))
This is a progressive movement, not some...
How 'bout for-profit corps get the middle finger they deserve and everyone vote for city run fiber; no need for comcast to make 97% profit from cable subs.
$50 for 1 gig up/down fiber? Yes pls (just a month or two for my service :D )
Longmont, Co Fiber...
Just an fyi, HP does not have a dress code. I am an employee at HP and there have been emails sent internally saying "there is no dress code"after this baseless report was made.
Take the xbox out of the equation and allow me to install and play xbox games on the pc.
That's the only thing i'll get excited about. I neither own nor want a console.
This is only because the current grid is all about production and consumption; there's no storage.
Renewable is very much like food production (less like today and more historical) where storehouses were used to store excess yields for times of drought or winter.
There is still work that...
Originally the MG279q going to be released in Europe at the beginning of May followed by a release in the US around the end of May.
During the initial release, some people found that the monitor was dropping every 6th frame. In effect it made the monitor refresh at 120hz and not 144hz. Due to...

Before anyone else sees this and falls victim. Chiphell has the pic from tccf, a pic of the cooler and the radiator (hopefully legit as it looks awesome), and then a card with no head sink. The naked card looks like it could be a 390x but it is not. The url to the pic reveals it's a sapphire...
nVidia does not support Adaptive Sync because they made GSync and make money from it. Profit >> All
My guess as to why Asus is making a FreeSync IPS monitor first is because the GSync gaming market is saturated with Swift monitors. Also, the FreeSync market has no monitor with these specs so...

Still a year out for me to get service and I cannot wait to call comcast to finally tell them to f' off.
All they need to do is attach a fire hose to one of these and it can replace this failure: http://www.hardocp.com/news/2015/02/05/navy_has_fire_fighting_robot#.VNuUbPnF-50

Maybe wiki's ultimate goal is to create a sentient computer based off of all the information on Wikipedia; thought origination is still a problem but the more a link is traveled from different pages the stronger it could become (very much like neurons (or is it...
I was thinking the same thing. Biped human mobility is not the greatest/end-all-be-all way to move. Make this thing a box with some sort of dynamic treads (to allow moving over larger obstacles) and put a fire hose on top. I'd be worried too if the water fires at full force that the robot would...
There's no science that's been done to prove that finger prints are unique for every individual. Even the way 'matches' are done can be very inaccurate and are not standardized. Why finger prints now-a-days can no longer be the only evidence in trials.
I agree this is how it should work and it's how it's worked for me personally too. BUT even if it works for us, that doesn't mean that's how it works everywhere. Just going off tax data and plotting that backward it's clear, wages for the lower 90% have not followed this trend and has been...
