I would buy a license, but it seems version 15 should be coming out soon based upon previous releases. Even with a 30% discount might be better to wait until the new release.

The wife started trying raise Monarch butterflies this year. We bought a great deal of milkweed plants, about 25 pots. Every day she would tend to the milkweed then brings in any caterpillar or larva she finds. Throughout the last seven months the number one issue our Monarch population faced was the Tachinid flies.

I don't know the exact number of larva eggs and caterpillars she brought into the house, but an educated guess would be around 250. The vast majority of the Monarch population was decimated by the Tachinid flies. I would say about 85% of them died as a result of the flies. Another cause we witness is when a caterpillar would expel green liquid then die. Still not sure the cause of them. Most info I could find pointed to toxins, like weed killer. We would wash the leaves after first reading about the toxins, but the caterpillars would still succumb.

In the end, I think only about 20-25 were well enough to be released. It has been very disheartening to see so many of them die.

Exact same question I would have. These are not paper launches, but the very well smell like one in terms of the quantity out there.

The police did have a no-knock warrant, but they did decide to announce themselves. It was her boyfriend that started shooting first then the law enforcement returned fire. Yes, let's call a spade a spade, her boyfriend was the cause of her death and even tried to blame her after the fact.

I bought into Google Pay back when they had the intro price of $7.99 a month and have kept it ever since. I don't really listen to Google Play, but every now and then I do. The primary reason why I keep it is so I don't have to watch the ads. For me, the cost of $7.99 is well worth not having to listen to the ads. I know not everyone would feel the same.

No, of course not. The CCP is very well versed on tactically releasing information to benefit themselves.

Points taken. The CCP controls all media, the story, and the narrative. I personally don't see the infected nor the deaths in the US, but this information is disseminated through via media who gets there data from the CDC and other government agencies. The CCP hide the details about the outbreak for some time and only got out via individuals who broke the news at severe fear of being punished by the CCP.

I do work with people in China, who doesn't these days, right? They report the same thing I see which is I don't see the infected or deaths directly, unless working in health care. My industry is tech so the individuals that I work with will not have first hand accounts. They only know what the CCP informs the public and we all know it is a well formulated narrative.

I believe we will never know the true depths until the CCP is finally overthrown and details are released after that time.

No sane person believes the numbers coming out of China. As countries start testing more for the virus the numbers will continue to grow. Very easy for a countries line to flat line if you don't test for it.

Recently I was looking at their laptops, but with a resolution of only 1920x1080, unless I wanted to buy one of the thicker laptops, was a deal breaker. Perhaps once they start making their own they will bump up the resolution, but until then I will wait.

I had used UltraEdit Studio for years, but with some changes to the UI (yes, can always go back to toolbars), but the intellisense couldn't handle mixed C and C++ projects at all. Thankfully, VSCode came out about that time. Large majority of my office use VS Code.

This release is especially helpful to me, along with the remote tools updated. Prior to this release bundle one would need to type in their password twice, but they have reduced it to just once. There is still improvement to be made in this regards. For example, when switching projects it will prompt for a password again. Essentially opening a new instance, but if they can use the same instance so I don't need to retype my password.

The only download side I have encountered recently is their C/C++ Tools as the parsing seems to have issues. Still, over all a fantastic code editor.

The results may be slightly skewed towards the languages/market segments their tools target. I have been an embedded developer since the late 90's and have a CLion license, but since they don't fully support Make files out of the box this tool doesn't fit within my development flow. One of the problems with CLion is its steadfast reliance on the output of the build to support CTAGS/Intellisense (sorry, I forget their specific terminology).

In the various industries I have worked in DO-178B, industrial controls/IEC-61508, and storage the one consistency shared by managers is meeting schedules and milestones. Generally, a manager's insight to development/engineering is for the product to be just good enough. Developers/engineers have a tendency to over engineer the solution. Good peer reviews have the most influence on software quality as does independent testing. Managers rarely have little impact that I have witness over my 25 year career, thus far. For industries that adhere to DO-178B or IEC-61508 guidelines, it is the process that imbues greatly improved quality.

These individuals were not punished enough for their crimes.

I wish I didn't need to create an Embarcadero account just to download it. I can download VS Community Edition without needing to register.

From the article, Cmdr. Bill Speaks, a Navy spokesman, said, “There are measures in place that require companies to notify the government when a ‘cyber incident’ has occurred that has actual or potential adverse effects on their networks that contain controlled unclassified information.”

This does not indicate the data was or was not classified. Now, at the beginning of the article, "The data stolen was of a highly sensitive nature despite being housed on the contractor’s unclassified network. The officials said the material, when aggregated, could be considered classified, a fact that raises concerns about the Navy’s ability to oversee contractors tasked with developing ­cutting-edge weapons."

The article suggest the data, in aggregated form, could be viewed as classified. I am quite sure not all the details have been made public nor will they be for some time. I am sure it will take many years for that true nature of the breach to enter public domain. Submarines are the US primary means of nuclear deterrence and any breach to limit that deterrence might be considered harmful.

If you are referring to the actual silicon, I don't believe that to be the case, at least according to WikiPedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_semiconductor_fabricat...)

Many of the devices are assembled in China thus it's conceivable a backdoor may be installed at that time.

I believe you might be thinking Intel hiring Raja Koduri this past November. It seems Raja Koduri will be heading up new products in the graphics arena, but that is at least two or three years into the future. https://www.pcper.com/reviews/Processors/Intel-Kaby-Lake-G-L...

Personally, I still don't like these web apps. I want something that run local. I am not sure if only runs in the cloud or will there be a local version or not.

I stopped reading after the first few sentences that were politically driven. Click bait?

Why are Springer books bad?

At ~ $150, that is an expensive solution, IMHO.

I have ST3 installed, but only as a secondary editor (primary is UltraEdit Studio). WinRAR was brought up and I do own a license for it. Granted, I purchased it about 6+ years ago, but still valid to this day.

I was going to install this, but it required access to "Device ID & call information" which I don't understand why it needs that access. So, not installing it on my phone.

I first learned programming on the beloved C64 typing in basic program from the back of a magazine. Later, I learned how to draw and animate horrible looking sprites that dance (well, looked more like the Humpty Dance). Good times, until the power went out and lost everything since I didn't have a storage device at the time.

I tried this and received the nice message "raised TASKING_ERROR : Failure during activation"

My service was upgraded a few months back. It was a nice bump in speed and my bill did not go up, surprising. It was at about 35mpbs and now hovers around 110mpbs (though supposed to be around 200mpbs). I am not complaining.

For Windows I used UltraEdit and for Mac I use BBEdit

How does BBEdit compare to TextMate and Sublime Text?
