Can anyone explain to a layman why the Newtonian view of the world - laws etc.- still work n an everyday level when quantum discoveries/theories show that things work quite differently and sometimes contrarily at the quantum level?

Thing really only happens locally.

I've been using some data recovery tools like Diskinternals Uneraser . I've been wondering how we can recover things on a hard drive programmatically?
Is there specific disc access mechanics, patterns, API to use? Is it something I can do in C#?

Speaking for NTFS, there is no "deleted items" API, AFAIK .
As soon as you have arcane knowledge of file system internals and direct access to the hardware, you will be able to recover things on a hard drive, even in C# .

Does anyone have an example of implementing Orbital Mechanics (preferably in XNA)? The code I am currently using is below, but it doesn't "feel right" when it executes. The object just bends ever so slightly to the planet, and no matter how much I tweak...

A) We have no idea what .
Of view of numeric analysis, the problem of orbital mechanics reduces to that of solving the set, but working orbital mechanics.

I'm building a web application (Java/Flex) that I hope to one day sell, but am aiming for a private beta to start with. I've been looking for some resources that explain the mechanics of processing a user's registration and payment, and then making the...

There are standards like SAML and XACML that might help; OpenId; SxIP; maybe more .
The former makes me think of security/authentication/authorization.
Customer management"? Your question refers to "registration and payment".

The past several core sets have featured mechanics that were not previously used for numerous sets and had never before been used in core sets (i.e., scry and bloodthirst), so I now am hoping that some other older mechanics may return in the next core...

Remember that the mechanics should be flavorful and mechanically grokkable and kicker? Not so much.
Buyback are always nice to have.
And Cycling I'd like mechanics which aren't set/flavor specific to become evergreen.

Hi!
I currently participate in a project where we/the applicaition need to be able to discover other instances of the application with the same application name running on a LAN (henceforth called Node).

This notifies the other servers.
Pick an address (well, make it configurable) and then when a new instance starts up it sends a multicast "ping" .
If you're all on the same subnet, a simple solution would be to use multicast sockets .

I have two related Python 'import' questions. They are easily testable, but I want answers that are language-defined and not implementation-specific, and I'm also interested in style/convention, so I'm asking here instead.
1)
If module A imports module...

This is rather different from C/C++, and it means that there's no "proper" way to define a language behaviour - CPython might do something just because it was coded that... .
The first thing you should know is that the Python language is NOT an ISO standard .

Not specifically a programming question, but might be something a bunch of programmers run into.
I wrote a really trivial application for the iPhone and submitted it for approvals. After a few back and forth (e.g. denied, then resubmit) of fixing various...

Once your application has been approved it does indeed take up to a few hours before it has propagated and shows up .
Wait about 6 hours and try again.
Yes there is an interval while it is released.

I'm new to Haskell, so I'm both naive and curious.
There is a definition of a factorial function:
factorial n = product [1..n]
I naively understand this as: make the product of every number between 1 and n. So, why does
factorial 0
return 1 (which is ...

Answer Snippets (Read the full thread at stackoverflow):
Not sure I understand your question, are you asking how to write such a function?
Just as an exercise, you could use pattern matching to approach it like this:
factorial :: Int->Int factorial 0 = 1 factorial n = product [1..n]
The first line is the... .
