I feel as though we should conquer a small territory, in order to send a message.

On another note, it's taken us about 1.3 years to get to 900. So in 13 years I'll be able to post "OVER 9000!!!!!!! :o" ;D

There will be significant milestones before that. Like 940, 1024, 1337 and 1701.

Thread locks too soon. I couldn't answer the allegro5 nuklear gui port in time, I had to PM him.
That's a great GUI tool, that can be driven by OGL, D3D, SDL, or allegro5 and the whole dx/ogl/whatever !

if($(programmer).is(':using-javascript')) $(programmer).find('.hair').each(function() { $(this).remove(); });

In Ruby, that would look like:

Programmer.find_by(using: 'javascript').each { |p| p.hairs.each { |h| h.remove } }

In Perl5 that could look like:

$_->remove for map $_->hairs, grep $_->is_using('javascript'), $programmer;

Why use such complicated things when you can just free( theprogrammer -> hairs );

That leaks memory - you should call al_destroy_hairs(theprogrammer->hairs);

The main difference is it packs the hairs better without introducing all those smelly spaces :)

for programmer in programmers:
    if "javascript" in programmer.languages:
        for hair in programmer.hairs:
            hair.pull()

I've been catching the Sun for a few weeks now with a 4 kW set of solar panels. So far the highest effect has been almost 2 kW, which is very promising.

I've been catching the Sun for a few weeks now with a 4 kW set of solar panels. So far the highest effect has been almost 2 kW, which is very promising.

Is it topic-worthy? I hope to install solar panels (or shingles) this summer but haven't quite figured out how to calculate power demand. My PC's power supply, for example, says it uses 1600W AC, whereas my bass amplifier (obscenely loud) only lists 500W (or 690VA). I find this ridiculous.

Then, there's the microwave. It lists 1430 (watts, I presume) but is only used a few minutes each day. How is that calculated? If you have any resources you've found handy, I am all ears.

Your PC's power supply is listing it's max usage (Some cheaper made PSU might be over estimating how much it can supply however, but I'm not sure if any of those are in that range you listed), and your actually use may be much less. You'll need some kind of power reader (like like this) see what the actual usage is (Test under load, lots of parts inside a computer now a days may just sip on power when they're idle).

Some UPS with displays can be used as a power meter (or even the software you install on the computer itself).

Thanks! Now we're making sense. I still don't understand, though, how a system of solar panels uses the unit kW and not, say, kW/hour (or even electrons/hour for a certain resistance spec, because the solar panels' role is to shove electrons into batteries). In terms of planning, I figured there would be two important calculations: the largest anticipated simultaneous demand and the average demand at any given point in time, the latter being used to roughly determine how many kW/hour a system needs to provide to the battery bank for recharging.

If a system of solar panels like Johan's provides 4 kW, is that per day?
