    I despair sometimes when I read things like this. Disregarding whether I want the manager, or Mascherano, to stay or not do you not think that Rafa knows just a tiny weeny little bit more about what Mascherano does or doesn't want to do than we do? So how the hell can you make statements like that with a straight face? At the moment it's like there's a bunch of kids who've thrown their toys out of the pram. Whiny "want want want" fans, "me" generation. Best fans in the world my fucking arse. You'd get more logical coherence out of an amoeba than half of our lot.

    Hahahahaa how twisted are the bluenoses going to be. Beauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutiful

    Fuck yes, pretty much everything they do in there is amazing.

    Did you type in the URL correctly? These sophisticated scams sometimes buy up common misspellings of bank websites and mimic their site so you don't realise your mistake.

    Bourne IV

    masch replied to Anubis's topic in GF - General Forum

    That looks ridiculously similar to the Bourne films. Ergo it must be good!

    Thing is, there was this fella called Terry Henry who came and changed all that, along with his boss Arsene. Torres has spent time out wide, Fowler was from a different era and Owen is a one trick pony who can't hack it now that his pace has gone. I reckon the best players are sometimes the ones that get shifted around - shows their true footballing ability. Think Gerrard, the aforementioned Henry, Eto'o etc. If you get moved, you've usually got the attributes to play in two positions. Want to hang on to those sorts of players.

    Who, after his nervous and error-strewn start, thought that Pepe would've turned out to be such a bargain? Completely ignoring everything else, all the other issues, Rafa & whoever scouted Reina out deserve a pat on the back for getting it so right first time. One of the top two, three keepers in the world for £6m is ace. I fucking love big Pepe I do.

    Excellent: Reina, Benayoun, Torres Good: Johnson, Lucas, Agger, N'gog Below par: Skrtel, Gerrard, Insua, Kuyt, Aurelio, Mascherano, Riera Poor: Carragher, Babel, Voronin Our problem in a nutshell right there, just too many players slightly underperforming combined with too many injuries. We're scoring enough goals, controlling enough of the play, it's just the insane amount of mistakes we make at the moment that's killing us. At some point soon we'll sort it out and someone somewhere will be in for a right twatting. A 4 or 5 nil coming up I think.

    If all this noise is coming from our players, I'd much rather they got their own houses in order first given the below-par performances coming from a few of them. In fact the players who aren't spouting off; Pepe, Yossi, Fernando aren't the ones disappearing in midfield or making mistakes at the back. Rather than this fucking game of cat and mouse in the media I just want them to grow a pair, get their heads down and sort it out between them. We're going nowhere fast at the moment with too many people concentrating elsewhere.

    If anyone's actually skipped it you might want to have a read; inside all the usual Tomkins stuff there's some very interesting things mentioned.

    Independent doesn't really lean in any direction, apart from that the rest of them are all shit. Economist is often enlightening, if opinionated reading.

    The bit with guy at the gate at the end is fucking ace.

    Nucking foos

    I reckon it's because no-one really wants to get stuck into us for fear of coming off second best. van Nistelrooy, Keown fucking handbags. Doubt Momo would've put up with any of that girly shit. Pepe, Riise built like tanks and that mean streak Gary Naysmith experienced at first hand is still there inside Gerrard.

    Francis does my head in with his stupid one liner, wait for the laugh, pause afterwards, one-liner, rinse-repeat stuff. Clever most definitely but not my cup of tea at all. Porter is also pretty dire, Parsons is ok. Really like Russell Howard tho, properly funny guy rather than sticking to a particular style like the rest of them. Him, Boyle and the Hugh guy are what keep me watching it. Echo the sentiments about O'Briain - the best comedian on there and he's wasted doing fuck all.

    It's worrying just how much influence it has and how many things News Corp has its hand in. Did a little investigation into them in work last week - off the top of my head in addition to its UK "newspapers" and Sky, basically anything with Fox in the title in the USA (20th century fox etc), Wall Street Journal, Factiva, Dow Jones & Company, MySpace, Photobucket, HarperCollins. The list was absolutely huge.

    We pretty much had to buy a top England international this summer and it was between him and Gaz Baz - would've been happy with either really but at least we've got a good player.

    He's nowhere near as bad as made out, but he's still a long way from competing with Alonso and Mascherano for a place. He plays the kind of football your average dipshit doesn't notice or appreciate. I don't think we should sell him as there's still a decent chance he can make the leap and give us a £10-15m midfielder.

    For my first 2 years of my CS&Maths degree, which aimed to give a basic grounding in pretty much everything, I learned things in this order: (maybe this will be useful) - Programming in C, basic data structures (trees, hashing etc) - Basic computer architecture (logic gates, ALU's, assembler language) - Basic software engineering concepts (the design process, concurrency) - Programming in Java and Haskell (the last one is for brave souls only) - More advanced data structures & algorithms (graph theory & algorithms, fast fourier transforms, basic complexity theory) - Basic networking and communication (TCP, ethernet, the protocol stack) - Basic concurrency (learning a concurrent language and the CSP grammar) - Basic machine learning concepts (pattern recognition, principal component analysis, signal processing)

    There's two sides to modern computer science, the theory and the practice. Some uni's just teach practice (probably Java & Web Scripting), some like Oxford think all you need to know is the theory and IMO the better ones teach a marriage of both - but it really depends on what you want to learn CS for. If it's to get software engineering jobs, then as Mr. Liquid football recommends CS61A & CS61B look good. Programming wise I think you learn more from C, but the learning curve is a lot steeper. If you're ok with maths then looking at complexity theory a little can be useful, especially for job graduate jobs at the likes of Google etc.

    Yeah unfortunately. I wrote a 10 page proof on the correctness of this bastard: AKS primality test - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. It's shit in practice too. The theory of computing is actually not that bad for the most and it makes things really really really simple when it comes to program them. And like SpeedyG says you're halfway there coming from the other side.
  23. masch
    I did my first on the computational complexity of prime finding algorithms in a number theoretic context, and my next one is likely to be on differential power analysis attacks on smart cards.

    It's two separate questions isn't it? Who's had a better season and who' made more progress are occasionally mutually exclusive.

    they were selling "Semi Final 09" t-shirts in town with a picture of moyes on them as well i had a hehe as i went past
