Not soon after Lego confirmed the latest additions to its fan-designed Ideas line in the form of Godzilla stomping into brick-built reality, the company has announced two more big name franchises making their Lego debuts soon: the unlikely pairing of The X-Files and Wallace & Gromit.

The probability of a hash collision Tags: probability A hash function takes arbitrarily complex input - a word, a website, an image, a human being - and maps it to a single number. This is useful for various computer science stuffs, such as data storage and cryptography. For example, let's say you want to store a book in one of N N N boxes. If you put the book in a random box, it's quite likely that you'll forget which box you picked, especially as N N N gets bigger. What you can do instead i

And two was the sheer amount, and size, of the penises seen in the film. Throughout 28 Years Later, the Rage virus-infected zombies that run around the mainland are all naked. As one would be if you’d been running around killing people as a zombie for 30 years. That means, yes, there’s lots of nudity in th
