University of Utah also has some really excellent free lectures on YouTube. I highly recommend Cem Yuksel's (a professor at university of Utah) channel if you're interested in learning about computer graphics.
I had similar concerns before getting mine. The build quality is definitely not as high end as a mbp but it's acceptable. I'm happy with it although I do hope they make future versions more sturdy.
The track pad is basically the same story. No real complaints but it could be better.
Open up your browser's debug tools and throw this in to the console `document.addEventListener('mousewheel', function (event) { event.stopPropagation(); });`
That's a really good question and one that probably has a different answer for every breach. In this case it's also probably a question that only Slack could answer for you. In regards to the second half of your question, being that they only recently went public about it, I suspect that they most likely did discover it after the fact.
I don't get why everyone is hating. The fact of the matter is Facebook is about to put a lot of funding in to Oculus. With a lot of other big companies getting in to VR right now, like Sony and apparently Microsoft, Oculus will need that to stay relevant.
When I first found out about the buyout I thought of the same thing this article points out; Facebook also purchased Instagram and it seems to be doing just fine. If Facebook truly lets Oculus "be who they are going to be", I'm sure they will do just fine.
Lol yea passwords that are not frequently used can take a while to input. I do sing the song in my head almost every time.
What I would really like to do is program a simple command line application that would generate and store all of my passwords. I started on one a while ago but never finished it; its on my to do list.
I like to take a long phrase (usually some lyrics from a song) and convert it in to a mnemonic. By combining the first letter of each word in the phrase, and converting some of them in to numbers or symbols, I am left with a relatively secure password that it easy to remember.
For instance...
"Cause I know that time has numbered my days
And I'll go along with everything you say"

I use this system for all of my passwords. I try to use a different password as often as possible and never have to write them down. Frequently used passwords have gotten to the point where inputing them is an exercise in muscle memory.
Wouldn't a 64 bit processor be able to perform more accurate floating point operations faster? I definitely don't believe the only benefit to a 64 bit architecture is being able to address more memory.
That is an interesting conclusion. I did not realize x86 already had 128 bit registers. That was really what I was referring to. We might not need to worry about addressing more memory yet but I feel like larger registers will still be useful.
This article was interesting but didn't really tell me anything I don't already know. Does anyone know where I can find a good article that actually explains the mathematics of performing a Fourier transformation? I thought that is what this article was going to be about.
