I do understand it but, for my colleagues and friends who don't have English as their first language, it adds another caveat to learn and remember without a logical basis. That's another place to introduce ambiguity and errors. I

If there are multiple ways of achieving the same result (e.g. assignment) and you want to be consistent, you have to choose a subset. If there are features that time has shown to be less-than-ideal (e.g. malloc/free) you choose a subse

Much as I didn't mean to insult anyone with my post, I'm sure you meant to add value by calling it petty and fallacious. Picking up features in a language you already use is easier than learning the language to begin with which it

OK but if you're a competent, adult software engineer it should be fairly easy to overcome that problem.

But we're not intuitively familiar with what happens when those stars get really big and start being black holes and exhibiting relativity. Fortunately, like waves, we can manage the maths.

If you get pulled over and have your fake plates ran you've already lost any gains from skipping tolls. If they're using ANPR, they don't even need to pull you over.

I had this exact discussion at work. Say you have test(X). X is a random number in range A to B. Say someone else has test_range(A, B). Instead of running for one input, it runs test for the full range of inputs. Actually, both tests run on
