I'd love to, but after I click the link, I get another link to "try" it. Clicking this link still gives me no joy, as now I need to find a server or something? Ok, lets see if there is one for my country, USA. Nothing on the popular list. Guess I should try the complete list. Oh look, no way to search. No suggestions on what I should be doing.
Whatever, I could spend my time and energy figuring the rest of it out, but there is no way I am going to convince my girlfriend this is a good idea.

There is zero risk of the deal falling through because the buyer's mortgage fails. In booming markets, people will make offers and then find they can't actually get a mortgage for that amount. For example, sometimes the bank will refuse the mortgage if the house doesn't appraise close to the value of the offer.

Yes, unless you suggest another hardware token with NFC in the same price band (sub $100).

The first challenge is training data. 10-100 videos of people beginning to drown would be a good start.
It also might be highly pool dependent. The different shapes, styles and attractions at the pool will all make a difference. Wave pool vs slope vs dropoff etc

Even in C I would point out that the compiler will likely make such a trivial optimization for you. That was clearly a company full of morons.

In most cases I would rather pay for 7 more servers than for the 10,000 extra lines of code your C++ or Java implementation is going to cost me. Hardware is cheap. Engineers are expensive.

It would be really useful if you could save patterns to copy paste them into the battlefield. Some of the more complex patterns are really really hard to paint on a high resolution screen.
Re:Bitcoin mining is NP-hard
on Tuesday October 28, 2014 @02:57PM (#8522829)
Hopefully by that point the block size will be bigger. If the block size is bigger, than the problem is just "include every transaction". But yes, the bitcoin rewards will continue halving until sometime in 2110-2140, where they hit zero. At some point, transaction fees will be more important than the block reward. Therefore, to be efficient miners would need to solve the knapsack problem if they wanted to create a maximum value block. However, we are lucky here, the knapsack problems is one of the few NP-complete problems that isn't a total mess to deal with, and can be solved in O(nW) time, where W is the greatest common divisor for the weights and n is the length of the input.
