as meaningless as most works of science fiction.

If you have clang available, the -fsanitize flag is also incredibly helpful for runtime analysis.

Based on the post's content, I have no idea what the complaint is. Can some one provide some more context?

A friend of mine wrote something up on this technique a while ago: http://spin.atomicobject.com/2012/11/01/hey-c-is-a-functiona...

Because of the timing, it's unlikely this was done in response to this incident, but CodeMash did update its code of conduct on September 26th. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!ms…

Or the circle you're working in is comprised of people from varying languages, countries, and backgrounds to whom "guys" might be at best ambiguous.

Haskell has marvelous concurrent constructs. It's actually one of the few places where I end up thinking "wow, I'm glad I get to use threads here" and I'm not thinking it sarcastic…

Ah, I have no rights to encryption either then since ... you know ... child porn. Or UPS for that matter.
