Seeing no problem whatsoever with this, I have to ask: why the [humor] tag?

By this River, Yoshida Brothers + Brian Eno:

Orbiter's V coord is flipped in relation to some other programs. I hit this problem when converting some meshes for raytracing ¬¬.

My city at night: And a bit of its architecture: Great for tourism, horrible to live in (proof: it took me many minutes to find a good photo which didn't include the beach). Hell on Earth in a very literal sense, this beauty lies only a few degrees south of the equator - tourists and...

I have only seen sounding rockets while visiting the CLBI (Hell's Barrier Launch Center), but sadly no launch. I might try and visit the CLA (Alcântara Launch Center) in the next years, and I still have hopes of seeing a successful VLS launch before I die. Yeah, right :beathead:

Don't split hairs. We've all been to space ;)

A piece of advice: don't ever, EVER, use code you don't understand. Besides the obvious possibility of malicious code, being pendant and detalist now will help you avoid many 'beginner mistakes' and reduce frustration. Take this for instance: cin.sync(); cin.get(); cin is a variable of type...

I think this is one of the few 'rules' a serious programmer should take to heart. The question is whether you know which part of your code fit into those 3%. (hint: timer and profiler) With that said, there are optimizations that actually do make code more readable and simpler. You shadow test...

Strictly, H is silent, but many of the people I asked did pronounce the first H correctly. Mostly due to influence of the English language in Brazilian society, I guess. What varied most was the tempo - some stressed the O, some stressed the A.

A cropped version of this: Fitting, I'd say. I had no idea which avatar to use, so I searched for '?' on Google Images, and this was the best image on the first page. Then I found a drawing of a Starship Troopers' Arachnid :woohoo:

Very nice. I once wrote something alike, intended to be a drop-in replacement SC3 and MS2, and I planned to add UMmu support + other misc extensions. It wasn't ready for prime time, but luckly isn't needed anymore. A few ideas are still roaming my mind right now, such as JSON (or a small Lua...

If you are willing to invest a bit of your time, DVCS, like Mercurial, Git or Bazaar are superior alternatives to JSGME, albeit a bit more complex. Face has posted a tutorial a while ago, using Mercurial. If you find it, I'd recommend you read it and give it a try.

Util a few years ago, small numbers were uniquely coloured, and smells still are. Most abstract concepts have a visual representation, which I end up using when solving some problem. Math is a prime example: numbers are, sometimes rather complex, 1/2/3D structures, which are grown, shrinked...

8. My eyes hurt though :(

Oh, sorry for the dupe. Found this on StumbleUpon.

Just found this pic with various rockets from around the world, in scale. Someone might find this interesting:

Not where I live. The norm here (for non-techies) is to buy PCs assembled by big national, or international companies.

Git also uses .gitattributes and .gitmodules. .gitignore files were always optional. Ignored files can also be specified in .git/info/exclude (or something like that).

For beginners, showing how VCSs may improve their current situation is, IMHO, always better than preaching based on hypothetical, contrieved, uncommon, or textbook situations. These three scenarios are excellent examples, which, I guess, anyone who coded anything but the most trivial program has...

NTFS works fine on both OSes.
