can you please tell me what adding ?fd=1 to the back of a url does? I was trying to use a URL for a G+ page that would enable users to leave a review from desktop OR mobile the only way to do that is by placing ?fd=1 at the end of the desktop URL

It depends entirely on the site in question. Try asking Google.

Check out Foundation or Twitter Bootstrap. These are web design libraries that may give you the leg up you seem to be looking for.

Is it difficult to learn how to set up a program to scrape data from a website? and how long would it take an experienced programmer?

Asked by DTSMT almost 10 years ago

Compared to other programming tasks, it's not so hard--it's more a matter of gluing together big parts that other people have already made.

What gets tricky with screen scraping is dealing with pages that almost-but-don't-quite fit the pattern. Setting up a basic scraper is pretty easy, dealing with the exceptions to the rules is what gets you.

How much RAM do I really need? My choices are 8, 12 or 16 GB. I'm going to use my system for programming, specially advanced numerical programs. By increasing RAM, can I execute my programs & numerical models much faster or it mostly depends on CPU?

Asked by Siavash about 9 years ago

More RAM will never hurt performance but it may or may not help. Some tasks are "CPU-bound" and some are "memory-bound," meaning some will top out your CPU first and others will run through all your memory first. The only way to find out is to measure your particular usage and see.

When I'm buying a computer I tend to buy as much RAM as I can afford: you save money in the long run that way because the computer will have a longer useful life.
