You suppose wrong. You are correct though that it is normal to view and say things about a junkie as I do.

> Will they design games for this and simply cut out graphics features to make it run on the slower version?

That's how the relationship between high-end PC games and the consoles work right now, so it's probably the case.

I would hope CRV's immigrant staff are documented. If so, what's the beef with Trump? His official stance on immigration is to try to combat illegal immigration and temporarily pause immigration from unstable countries.

Which would of course be the optimal solution. I always forget about that object.

I just wanted to point out a bit of syntax from the article. I'm a huge fan of compact variable declaration if statements. The code from the article:

    if name in names:
        names[name] += 1
    else:
        names[name] = 1
That can actually be written as just one neat, readable line:

    names[name] = names[name] + 1 if name in names else 1
It may not be as readable to some who are used to spelling it out as an if/else block, but I really prefer the one line way. It reads closer to regular English I think.

I learned something new. It's not a big deal, but I'm glad it was posted nonetheless.

I would love to see that core sample. The tree isn't, or at least doesn't appear to be very big, so the rings must have been tiny.

One of the commenters on that article said:

"just for the pleasure, anyone want to try a simple

rm -rf --no-preserve-root /"

I don't have a Windows 10 computer, so I can't test this myself. I would love to know what happens though. Does this subsystem have Windows' typical self-preservation mindset, or is it full-on UNIX style?
