speckled

Other comments:\n- what is with the speckled grey textured background? Oy, are we back in 1997?

Note that the speckled image in the post shows the result when exposed to 10Sv/hr. 1Sv makes you sick, 10Sv is virtually guaranteed to be fatal.

Not sure if I love it, but the speckled header was definitely memorable.

Because listing your source you'd find it speckled with random special characters and changed values. Tire tracks from that little guy.

In my opinion, it's an amazing balance of a whole lot of genius speckled with madness.

The more speckled-looking words tend less to form concrete shapes and create "blocks" that stand out to the eye. If words are too dense you get similar issues, only in the negative.

Edit: on the tiger, I'm not expecting the person to solve the speckled hen problem. People with stable mental images can count the stripes off the picture, none should simply "know" how many are there.

A small, grey-speckled hen that I fed once or twice now runs to me whenever it sees me because it has forever now associated me with food. Animals are crazy for food.

Which further proves the author's point that adding syntax makes things easier, since even the pure Lisp land is speckled with extra syntax to make it work.

He was delicious in a speckled sussex-au-vin. And the bits from the carcass were amazing as leftovers in a fritatta.

White backgrounds look speckled, gradient transitions have banding, pure colours look impure, fine lines look stippled, and there are no smooth curves. Again - this is only when looking at her Nexus S after staring at my iPhone 4 for a while.

It's speckled with both standard assertions and semantic assertions, and an "It" function that simply takes a block and a string. I can replicate this with using underscores in my test function names and avoid the complexity.

I managed to shoot the bugger, but then they respawned with movement reset and the whole screen was speckled with shots, yet another killing field. Later it was doing similar movements to before but shooting out in a spiral at a rate unmatchable with the space bar.

I've only seen pictures, but it seems plausible to be able to take Nth degree strips and add some kind of thin diffusion film over the surface, to remove the speckled look. Certain materials can also absorb blue and re-radiate multi-spectrum light.

Miranda was looking at a black wall speckled with twenty or thirty thousand individual pricks of white light. Taken together, they formed a sort of three-dimensional constellation of Miranda, moving as she moved.

Throughout, general appalling service speckled with useless calls from customer service research departments asking me how long I had to queue for in my recent visit and other pointless questions. Flacid attempts at 'caring for customers'.

Forbidding new construction sites lest the yellow speckled violet frog's breeding habits are disturbed in order to prop up the rental extraction by oligarchs.

> As light passes through, its wavelengths shorten and scatter to generate a series of random high-resolution speckled patterns. Speckle allow random illumination with small resolution.

They can keep their fancy power management and their new apps, because nothing will compare to that feeling when I boot into my shiny new surf-speckled desktop, fullscreen a video on my second monitor, and my main screen isn't covered in useless grey cloth. For the first time in I don't know how many years, I won't have to repress the urge to knock my monitor off my desk and install Ubuntu.

I didn't notice the contrast problem until seeing the GP comment, but I suspect that speckled backgrounds are worse than a solid #E8F7FA because they mess with people's ability to do edge detection when trying to see the shapes of the letters in the text.

"Mediocre" can mean "ordinary" or "unremarkable" and a history speckled with failures is pretty typical of most "ordinary" entrepreneurs. I find it actually encouraging, that someone with the admitted faults of procrastination, poor networking/social skills, and poor negotiating skills can still, eventually, find success.

For example, if you are scanning scientific literature from the Eastern Bloc, it was often printed on low-quality, speckled paper, which means Scantailor often identifies too much of the scan as the page block, and then you have to manually tweak the rectangle.

That a nationwide mass protest movement often targeted specifically at banks and speckled with anarchist overtones happened to be a topic discussed by a nationwide security organization is... not actually that surprising.
