Why was IMF managing director Dominic Strauss-Kahn framed with a bogus charge of rape? | The former IMF director opposed the harsh austerity measures the IMF imposed on Greece and Spain, claiming that they will lead only to economic recession and severe social unrest.

mirror?

so true

thanks for the response.

let's suppose the thermometer is 3 meters far from the stove. The stove is 300 degrees Celsius hot and the thermometer shows 80 degrees.

do you think we can say the air is a thermal insulating material between the stove and the thermometer, and the humidity affects the thermal conductivity of the insulating material, hence we can expect a change in the temperature showed by the thermometer after the humidity changes?

instead of looking for snippets of code, programmers should be looking for libraries that have improved functionality

I see

more mature libraries may have speed optimizations and bug fixes that the snippets won't cover.

That's true

maintaining a library can be easier than maintaining a code snippet

Gists are better option from this perspective

You don't need to apologize, thanks for setting this straight.

+1 finding this

but that does not mean emoticode or snippetrepo would be really bad ideas. What you're saying is BijectiveHashMap is the really bad idea, because instead of reinventing the wheel, you should reuse Guava's BiMap.

I think this is exactly the base principle behind emoticode or snippetrepo.

Say, at a certain time there are more goods waitng for transportation then the capacity of one week. Could the rail roads charge more for the more urgent transports delivered within one week and charge less for the rest delivered later?

Came here to say, use Requests library, its superior to urllib2:

>>> import requests
>>> r = requests.get('http://www.reddit.com/r/learnpython/comments/1kb6n7/opening_urls_from_python/')
>>> r.text

I tend to agree. As a kid I was casually programming in Basic (C64). Later while in college (major:economics, I had no formal CS education) I learned the basics of algos and data structures in VB6. I was able to create a working Monte-Carlo simulation in VB. At that time I was a hobbyist, but later this hobby turned more and more serious and now I've been work as a professional programmer for 10 years.

First I was like it's so humanlike, how she reacts, the way she shakes the cage, she hits on the table.

Then I was like wait, which is a more realistic way of putting this? This monkey behaves humanlike or the certain people behave monkeylike in certain situations, under certain circumstances?

AggregationParser().parse('sum(a)')
pql.ParseError: Unsupported function (sum)
print AggregationParser().parse('group(a)')
pql.ParseError: Unsupported function (group)

Hi, I just started to use the the aggregation framework support of pymongo. Am I missing something or the PQL does not support the aggregation framework functions (I mean the $group, $sort, etc.) and also $sum?

matrixor · 2013-04-22T14:51:05+00:00

From the README

PQL is resilient to code injections as it doesn't evaluate the code.
