    As mentioned by maintainers in the thread there is already a flag to catch unsigned overflows Too bad such a flag doesn't exist.

    You seem to be unaware of Ludum dare and similar challenges where (literally) thousands of games are created over the weekend that could easily compete with games made in the 80's.…

    Nice example. More people should know that the second if statement is unreachable code.

    As mentioned by maintainers in the thread there is already a flag to catch unsigned overflows. They even mentioned a way to catch those overflows in the code. I can't seem to find …

    Correlation without causation? What if people that don't keep the phone in their pants life a different lifestyle that is different enough to cause the observed discrepancy.

    That place should be relaxing and should feel like home, because it is. Keeping different levels of authority separated in different houses would be mandatory. Additionally workers…

    Slightly off topic, but it really isn't hard to find partitions. Just run the various software to scan and that's it. I've done it at least twice when accidentally erasing a window…

    Yes I agree. I can't be a coincidence. They deliberately picked the best weapon in this debate, biased public opinion.

    Do you think they choose to ask Apple to do this in such a public way, because they are very confident the phone will contain information that will help with the investigation, whi…

    How sad it is that the can of coke is used as a comparison. It almost makes it look like a reasonable drink. The World Health Organization has recently suggested cutting the recomm…

    If facebook doesn't want to delete his account, why don't you unfriend him?

    For the former it really depends on your position. If on foot and on a monotonous route, then maybe if you can handle thinking in 5 minute bursts, anything else, not a chance. You'…

    Uh, thanks for pointing that out. I'm familiar with allocated memory and effective type, but I never considered it from this perspective. This could be quite a nasty surprise when …

    I was also under the impression that the One True Way to type pun was to cast to char , which is allowed to alias, and then cast again to the type you actually want.* That clearly …

    The problem they are addressing is already solved. Simply say at time X Y, where X is the time and Y is the offset, preferably an established offset. We meet at 12:00 GMT Done Ever…

    Assuming no accretion disks, there wouldn't be any em radiation as far as I know. Where would it come from?

    It felt nice when you had to physically meet a person to exchange the latest meme. The physical vicinity adds so much quality to the social experience. I cannot talk to friends the…

    I don't think they are insane. It is safe if you follow some rules. Flag -Wformat=2 catches every mistake at compile time. (It wont guard against overflow of course, but this is C)…

    Isn't a modern strlen optimized into vector operations if possible anyway?

    That's nothing, you should see the sad sad state of strings in assembly... Oh you're supposed to manage them yourself? Huh, what a concept. Seriously though, a C programmer should …

    The space is expanding and its expansion rate is accelerating. Dark energy is not pushing objects apart, it is causing the acceleration of expansion of space. What you said isn't e…

    The galaxy isn't traveling faster than c away from us, but space is being created in between. So, nothing is actually accelerating, there is no problem, Einstein is still right. In…
