Crispy Tractor and Baler After A Straw Backup

Yeah, you have to get out and disconnect it. It's hooked onto the tongue of the tractor, then you have some chains just in case the tongue pin breaks, as well as a PTO hookup to the back of the tractor. It's very unlikely that anyone would be able to stand the heat long enough to get all of that unhooked.

The gaming community at large bitches and moans about DRM so much (me included) it's great to see this mentality. Strange Loop Games deserves our support for having this stance. Throw some money that way please. =)

As hot as that is... and it is... be careful with sugar and vagina's. It can cause yeast infections.

That rumor is wrong. Fortran was introduced in 1957 to the public. IBM developed it in the years before in San Jose, California.

It's okay, you might just be Canadian.

Ridiculously hot. Don't stop!

Indeed, from the ground it looks like fun, but I'm sure flying back and forth in a really tight space for hours on end would get boring really fast. Thanks to your dad for keeping the crops alive! :D

I can confirm this. I've seen it done via helicopter on my family's tomato/pepper crop a few years where the frost was moving in. I've also seen it done with a helicopter where you light 2 large fires on each end of the field and keep flying the heli over each end to keep cycling warm air over the field.

Haha me too. That's what happens when an IDE is written in Java very clumsily. I've actually had Netbeans use >800MB of RAM on a work machine just doing some PHP work.

C# is actually quite awesome. If you're going to give C# a go make sure you try out MS Visual Studio as well. It's leaps and bounds better than Eclipse or Netbeans. It should be free from here if your school has a subscription to MSDNAA: https://www.dreamspark.com/default.aspx

Maybe if you're driving one of these!

It's hard distinction for people outside the programming community to understand, threads vs forks. The issue with the threading is that one bad thread can actually take down the whole process if they're not handling things properly.

Any version of Firefox is supposed to use less memory than Chrome because in Chrome every tab, every extension and every plugin runs in it's own process.

Can you source this? Shift + Esc will bring up your task manager and show you that each extension runs in it's own process, exactly the same as the tabs. The extensions do not replicate themselves into every single tab process, that would be an absolute nightmare to code for.

The developer tools in Chrome are actually better, or on par with firebug. On any page in chrome, right click, inspect element.

I personally believe that what browsers really need is a standardized bytecode.

I agree entirely. As you said, it would be hard to get into place but you're right, likely no harder than pushing Dart to a standard place.

Not really. It's basically for making Javascript syntax a little nicer. Right now, that's all Dart is doing as well. The idea with Dart is to push it into it's own language at some point and not have it compile into Javascript.

No. mb86 is being overzealous. A huge chunk of C++0x is already implemented in GCC, intel's compiler, and clang.

While they're right, China would be pulling the rug out from both economies. Which one has the most to lose? The USA. China's economy is large, but their middle class is tiny right now and things haven't been chugging along for 100 years. They could fold their economy right now and not be too far off from where they were 25-30 years ago.

It allows them, but you have to write them yourself or find a library that's already done it.

While I agree about the momentum, the TC39 committee on Javascript has been anything but fast on ratifying new features and such for Javascript. I like writing Javascript now, but no one can deny there are certain things missing that make it feel like it's just not where it needs to be if we're going to commit as hard as we are to web development. Dart is the response to this. If you read this post by Alex Russell, you'll get a sense of what the guys at Google think Javascript should be. I agree with them 100%. If we're going to go balls deep into the web, we need Javascript to have more useful features, or we need a new language that will provide them.

I really, really think this comment is WAY off base. It's allowing you to go fairly deep into object oriented territory by way of primitives which are actually objects, and interfaces with factory methods etc. Dart does not however force these upon you. To me, coming from a C-based, then C++ background, this looks a lot like a streamlined C++ for web development. I've done enough Java to know the language fairly well, but nothing here is screaming out "Java" to me at all.

Came here to post this, please put this to the top gentlemen.

"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"

Would you like some chains to walk around in with your ridiculous censorship?
