You should be able to migrate from 2016 to 2017.
From 2017 to 2017 is likely not possible when using backups.
I know for a fact that this is the case for 2016 -> 2014 and 2014 -> 2012.
If it's for use by third parties I'd go for something like 2014.
If it's for personal (or internal use in a...
Hmm, how much time would it take to implement named functions?
Because in this case it could be useful to define a function like PlanckToSI (c=h=g=k_b=k_e=1) or geometrizedToSi (c = G = 1).
Each of them defines the linear algebra problem internally et voila you're done.
I bet it would lead to...
Cool stuff.
Regarding the natural units Orodruin brought up, it might be interesting to look into an algorithmic way to do this.
A great starting point is already present as proven by your error message.
E.g. for $$2\mathrm{km}\rightarrow(neV)^{-1}$$ you convert the units on both sides of the...
Unfortunately this doesn't always work. Today I was stumped why a "release version" crashed (vague exception too :().
I narrowed it down to one of two methods and set a breakpoint. It didn't work because I was communicating with some hardware that required an acknowledgment within a second or...
Often one uses serialization to accomplish these kind of things (configurations and settings). In fact I'm planning to do a similar thing to load messages, states etc; used in a protocol I'm meant to implement.
Often one uses xml serialization but in this case binary might be equally if not...
Once students have taking some introductory courses that handle the basics in suitable detail I think having them study the material before class works best.
At least as a student I felt like courses that assigned part of the material and reserved lecture time for questions about theory and...
Well some good news here in Belgium. A well-known comic (Lieven Scheire) that studied (but didn't finish) physics in college started a monthly podcast that looks at science and technology news. He did similar things in a TV show although they often focused on unbelievable facts much like QI.
It...
So does anybody watch the TV show http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5114356/']Legion?[/PLAIN]
It's set in a/the X-men universe from what I understand (I'm not too well versed in which different universes/spinoffs exist).
I don't consider myself to be a cinephile but this show is a work of art if you...
I quite liked the approach in this book https://learncodethehardway.org/c/ (it used to be free though)
I recently went through Kernighan and Ritchie's book again and I think it can be a great resource if you do all/most of the exercises.
I wouldn't use it as a first book though. It can be quite...
Maybe this can help http://people.clarkson.edu/~bhelenbr/Research_Pages/Xcode_%26_MPI.html
It should describe how to configure your xcode to run with mpi.
The problem with obfuscation is that it's either easy to undo or it will increase the amount of code that's executed, a lot of which is pure overhead.
What most big sites use is minified code =/= obfuscated. Even in the development tools the code gets reformatted in that case.
The only people worrying about obfuscating JS code are those that are doing fishy things.
Like those scam 'whose viewing your facebook profile' websites.
