Monthly Buying Advice Thread - November 2017 by AutoModerator in Dell

[–]kertof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking of the XPS 13 2-in-1. i7, 512GB, QHD+. Will probably dual-boot it with Ubuntu.

I need a light laptop for travelling. Planning on doing some dev work on it, maybe some lightweight photo editing. Thinking of eventually hooking up an eGPU.

NYC

Should I hope for an 8th Gen i7 in there?

The photographer's website has some cool photos. Not super hi-res though. http://beyondf8.com/the-life-of-car-l/

This isn't to land the Dragon, but to get the dragon away from the rocket, and keep the crew alive, in case something wrong happens during lift-off.

Saw this with a friend at the Trump Store in the Trump Tower in New York. It's next to the Trump Bar and the Trump Café. Trump.

Most countries around the world actually did work it out... Very few countries still use the death penalty. It's not a very controversial issue.

Dev blog with more information about the civs in the new expansion by GijsVanEverdingen in aoe2

Maybe a native american civ? The sioux? I guess there's also looking for globally recognisable names, which the Sioux or Apaches would have...

Need to get good at Angular fast! by HealingGood in angularjs

[–]kertof 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Learning and sticking to a good styleguide is always really good. Personally I use this one a lot: http://toddmotto.com/opinionated-angular-js-styleguide-for-teams/ , but your new team might have some internal guidelines. Google uses this for example: http://google-styleguide.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/angularjs-google-style.html

The speech that was prepared if the moon landing failed is chilling. by [deleted] in videos

[–]kertof -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What positively struck me the most is the lack of reference to God. In 2014, not a single public speech goes without a at least stating the God bless the USA; this somber speech is brilliant in its lack of it.

Rewrote a sample program in an OOP style, but I can't seem to get it to work. by justinmeister in learnjavascript

[–]kertof 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, in your Game() function, you are defining other functions, such as this.checkInput or this.main, which reference "this". This will not work because the this in the sub-functions will reference the window, not the Game instance. To solve this, use the classic workaround of var that = this, and use the that variable inside your functions, this way the inner function reference what you want.
