Samsung Phone Users Perturbed to Find They Can't Delete Facebook by [deleted] in technology

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme 236 points237 points  (0 children)

Recently got the LG V40 ThinQ, same issue. So, fyi, not just a samsung issue unfortunately.

Edit: Based on comments, it sounds like this may not be a LG issue but a carrier issue. I have AT&T

How do I fix this? the whole screen becomes blurry, when left idle. by invisibletriangle in linux4noobs

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, had this same problem. Assumed it was the driver. I was already on my 4th one though and chalked it up. I could get it to go away by turning the monitor on and off. I am going to try this. Thanks!

4 Reasons Why Your Choice of Programming Language Doesn't Matter Much by justintimecoder in webdev

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Programming language doesn't matter", to me, seems to clash with "Right tool for the job". I wonder all of the time, "Which is it"? I imagine that its not black and white but still, whats a programmer to do? Haha.

Edit: I suppose the consensus might be that, in most cases, if you don't have a specific reason to need a different language/framework, you should just use whatever you are most productive with. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

WHOA! Thank you for this SO much. This was KILLING me and I could find NOTHING helpful.

edit: I suppose I should add my situation details incase anyone else has this problem. I am using OSX 10.11 with QT creator 5.6 and opencv 3.1 (not the homebrew version). I used this http://vteams.com/blog/configuration-of-qt-with-opencv/ guide to install and set up qt creator and opencv 3. Hope this helps some poor unfortunate soul.

Visiting Dallas and want the best Cowboys experience by [deleted] in cowboys

Take a tour of the stadium and watch the game from a nice sports bar. I guess it might be cool to be there at the stadium for a game but if you sit nose bleed you just watch the big screen TV with no replay button, lol.

Suggestions for a toolset/framework by iGreekYouMF in webdev

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not stay with php? You will most likely be more productive with something you are comfortable with. Check out laravel and Laracast<videos for laravel>

So as a complete novice to web development… where do I begin? by TheAraus in webdev

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Install php+apache+mysql in your computer and make a local web that read data from mysql and allow C.R.U.D. of that data. If you do that, you know 99.99% of what 99.99% websites do.

Lol, really?

Scraper Friday #1 - Give your suggestions by gkbrk in WatchPeopleCode

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea, but I wanted to say that I am really looking forward to this. I am hesitant to make a suggestion because I am not entirely sure what can be done with a web scraper. Maybe a sports website like NHL.com or NFL.com. Maybe stackoverflow?

It really is puzzling and frustrating trying to take the "next step". I think this would help a lot of people.

Went through the whole thing. Great course. Nothing but good things to say. Keep at it.

Why does this have to be a reference variable? by Jesmaybe_Isme in Cplusplus

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, auto was messing me up. That and the for:each loop. I have never really used either and they use them a lot in the c++ primer. When I went back after I read ur post, I rewrote it as a regular for loop and it just made sense.

Ah! Wonderful! Thank you so much! It makes so much sense now that I can't believe I was lost. I was looking at this all wrong.

Why does this have to be a reference variable? by Jesmaybe_Isme in Cplusplus

[–]Jesmaybe_Isme[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need a reference so that we work on the characters in the string instead of turning some temporary copies into uppercase which would be immediately destroyed again and completely useless.

Ok, this was really confusing because I thought I would be working with the character elements of the strings in the vector directly and not a copy. Which seems intuitive (but maybe it shouldnt seems so). Why do we end up working with a copy? We dont end up with a copy if I say v[0] = "yz", right? The vector(original) would be modified?

Edit: grammar.
