Good for you! Personally I'm not so much interested in building things. On the other hand, my ideal life would be to make a computer do new cool tricks all day.

Many, yes, but I think you misjudge the less vocal but large majority of people saying less meat is better for the climate and environment.

Sounds like the standard should say that it results in an implementation-defined value (or wording to that effect). Saying it's UB gives the compilers way too much leeway.

Rendering yeah, understanding nope.

Crazy funny, yes, but not good.

I think you belong to a small percentage of the population doing that. Most people don't bother with such detailed life microoptimizations.

Yeah, that comment is a textbook example of failure to communicate.

Why so secretive? Share the list.

Interesting. I'm just relaying what I read in quality newspapers over here. And it's not just Africa. Anyway, you may be right. Do you have numbers?

South China sea, Tibet, Uyghuria, Taiwan. And definitely dominance over SE Asia even though no direct conquest.

It has been quite good at indebting countries to them, in Africa but also e.g. Montenegro.

As the saying goes: you can fool all people some of the time, and some people all of the time. Actually, depending on what you're doing, it can be totally fine. Just be aware that …

Off-topic, but I am reminded of Larry's First and Second Laws of Language Redesign (which Larry Wall discovered/stated when he designed Perl 6, which is now Raku): 1. Everyone want…

Do a web search for the parent of your comment, read the Stackoverflow answer. It's a classic. Learn about Zalgo and Tony the pony, he comes.

Firefox didn't offer to translate this, so initially I wasn't aware that it could. But I could get it to translate via the menu. And Google Translate is still a bit better, so I do…

Just finding out the truth?

Depends in which country you live. Netflix was the only thing in many places outside the US for a long time.

Those were normal reservations, not Interrail ones, which I explicitly was talking about, trying to get the conversation back on track to Interrail which is the subject of TFA. Tho…

If carry propagation is so expensive, why are the mathematicians, like Karatsuba, ignoring it? It seems like we need a better complexity measure.

Have fun on your hill. Or not, if that's what you prefer.

Same, same. Actually, strong side wind was the worst.

The only way to properly realize human potential is to have no fun when doing your work? Are you really sure you want to live in a world like that?

I'm quite sure C.S. Lewis was referencing that explicitly.

I've taken Amsterdam-London with Interrail many times, usually €35, sometimes €57, often sold out. So yeah, two price levels; Eurostar is basically SNCF.
