So I'm sort of nitpicking your comment here, but the purpose of @"" for verbatim strings wasn't created just to deal with directory slashes, it's just a handy way of writing string without the need for escaping in general.
Also, if you really want to make portable C# code, you should use Path.DirectorySeparatorChar, as it's not platform specific at all.
It's a really clean way of implementing layouts and everytime I use other languages like Python, I always try and find equivalents but am always disappointed.
I'm pretty sure that both Microsoft and Sony are on a 10 year plan with both of those systems, which means you won't hear anything about a PS4 for another couple years at least.
That said, this seems like a pretty smart move on Nintendo's part. They get to release hardware thats not the most expensive/fastest available, but still beats the current market, and gets to live at the top of the performance chart for at least a few years.
This seems like it's interesting but could really use some audio. This definitely comes off as a slide deck that someone used in a presentation and wasn't meant to just be read. Does anyone have a video version of this by any chance?
This is a side project I've been working on for a few months now, and I'd really appreciate your input on it. If you're an artist or designer or just like art, it'd be amazing if you requested a beta account. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions.
For a weird, distorting effect, press control to zoom all the way out and pan around. It seems that it tries to put you're view point "behind" the actual camera location. Not sure if it's a "bug" or not, but it looks neat nonetheless.
b) Would it be illegal to put up a website and say that essentially no one can use it? Aside from some exceptions like discrimination, ToS's define how you can use a tool, which is exactly what they were doing. Is there some law stating that if you host a website, you must allow users to link to it in any way they like?
If you haven't seen this yet, this is probably the best example of a hack like this that I've seen. It was submitted for a contest that radiohead held, and I believe was the winner (it takes about a minute to get rolling):
As someone else mentioned in the thread, make the email address optional, with the understanding that without it they can't recover lost passwords.
This is probably an unacceptable solution for some sites, but I can definitely think of cases where the only reason you need email is for password recovery, and account loss isn't the end of the world.
Is this really any different? They're just instating the VP instead, who I imagine is probably not much better.
This might make sense if they're planning to hold another election shortly thereafter. That way, at least the figurehead is out of office, and there's the potential for a peaceful transition for a replacement. Given the level of corruption though, is that even a possibility?
Edit: I also agree with your sentiment. This seems to move away from what CSS classes are intended for, and gives things naming conventions that are tied directly to their internal CSS code instead of to their semantic meaning on the page. That said, I haven't used it either, so maybe it's way better this way, but something doesn't sit right with me.
Im curious as to how this works, but there doesnt seem to be any code examples and the download link seems non-existent. Can someone explain how this is used?
Edit: Scratch that, the download seems to be working now, and it contains some better documentation.
It covers a lot of the conceptual differences between the distributed version systems and subversion, and gives a similar sort of story telling walk through of use cases.
