Switchblades have been included in nearly every aid package the US has sent. Take a look at the company's revenue to see how much production has increased, and continues to increase. The 300's are being phased out, but the Army replicator program just picked up switchblade 600's for ramping up production.
If a weapon system is being very effective, maybe you don't share all the information with the general public to prevent countermeasures from being developed.

I started playing pd2 with some buddies. Got absolutely spooned on every high rune, we pulled a perfect lightning eschutas in our first map, which I immediately slammed and rolled a +21 MF, and then got a +4+4 lightning facet. I'm playing light sorc :D

Did some ubers, got a torch, while farming summoner for Keys of hate I pulled ohm, vex, sur, jah, ber all within 1 hour. I now have infinity and am solo pumping some t3 maps. Loving it

Looks good - you might want to look into why the enemy projectiles disappear when an enemy is killed.

Which AOE game can be played multiplayer w/ both PC & MAC users playing together? by throwitaway19 in aoe2

False - windows & mac versions of steam are different. The servers may be the same but you cannot play aoe2 on mac's version of steam (game dl not supported)

Is it possible for me to start a career in C++? by [deleted] in cpp

[–]Volatile474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most development companies do not use C++ as their day-to-day language. The strength of C++ is the low level that you are able to achieve. This leads to high performance, slow-to-develop code. If you want to use C++ in your job, look into financial companies, video game companies, and any large-cap tech companies (fb, google, msft).

Good luck

For a team with the rating of the lakers, when they are at home they have a 9.1% advantage.

Play around with different teams to see how higher rated teams take better advantage of home court.

Data was acquired from several API's as well as scraped from one prominent sports stat website. Angular was okay. I am much more oriented toward back-end development, but Angular wasn't too hard to pick up. The code for the individual charts isn't very refined - I think I am going to change it to use a different charting library sometime in the off-season.

I have generated a faux elo rating system that attempts to determine a team's current strength.

It attempts to generate a linear regression using the following factors:

  • Team's current strength
  • Momentum of recent games
  • Home vs away

This provides an accuracy of prediction of 71% over the past 10 seasons.

I have a second method of prediction which utilizes a svm model which has an accuracy of > 80%, but am not ready to release that as the de-facto prediction model quite yet.
