programmers use int to index over arrays in for loops without writing asserts. That is in fact a problem with the language. Ok let me get this clear, you're saying that the language is at fault because the programmers don't wri

If the loops can be written and the programmers don't write them, the problem is with the language!? No, it's pretty clear where the problem is with C, programmers.

It looks easy but it isn't. The second example causes unexpected behavior (and probably ub later) if: min + step > MIN_TYPE_MAX The last example causes undefined behavior if: max - min < step - 1.

It's just one line. Put this before the loop if the code logically shouldn't trigger this. assert( B < B_TYPE_MAX - 4 ); Or use an if statement if it could trigger at runtime. Also the code is clearer on intent.

In terms of sociologic development the middle-eastern countries are considered backwards with their stone-age laws, ingrained religion, and treating women like lesser beings, and yet we may soon be wearing 'burka' like clothing to

For the scramble suit to work, publicly available 'mixing' stations would have to be available, which would work like a black box, you could only surveil input and output. And exits from your house would have to somehow be connect

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in this scale model, I think the part of the building marked with a black rectangle (upper left) is what is currently being built. https://www.bloomberg.com/features/2016-inside-tesla-g

It certainly could be, but I think most mistakes are made because of how the process is 'designed'; sometimes an incorrect molecule jiggles (literaly) into a place where it is improbable that it should.

So only about 4Gs? I somehow though it would be more and unsurvivable for humans.

I would say that ionizing radiation isn't the cause of most genetic mutations. It is just too rare and most of it doesn't penetrate the skin anyway, the rest has to be really lucky to hit the cell in the right place at the right t

I still haven't seen anyone write what those fraudulent acts are exactly. Since Craig Wright (let's not call him what he isn't) apparently has several companies, these should be some clue about that?

It feels like a rage quit. Completely frustrated when you simply cannot win, there is only one option remaining. Anger and self-pity.

Running an ICE car in a garage will harm you (and kill you pretty quickly), running an electric car will heal you. It sounds cheesy but it true.

I agree. The problem is that those single character names get abused and you end up with code that consists only of them, including the function arguments, which is the worst.

The 'style' even leaked out to file naming: a.c, ab.c, af.c, am.c, c.c, ca.c, cc.c, cd.c, cf.c, ... Brilliant! I doubt that this is either serious (unobfuscated) or handwritten code though.

I agree, and I have calculated this a while ago this based on average number of lines a programmer writes in 8 hours. I don't have the actual numbers but unless you type slower than ~30 words per minute, speed it isn't a bottlenec

Fabien is hinting at the confusion: sizeof(&array[0]) != sizeof(array) &array[0] and array decay to the same thing, the pointer to the first element if they are used in an expression. But sizeof gives a different result, because arr

I think the style should be avoided; code shouldn't be compact and variable names should be descriptive. Artificial example: for( int i = 0 ; i < c+j ; i += b ) should be: for( int count = 0 ; count < sum+extra ; c

This is the first time I have seen sizeof used like this: sizeof( &array[0] ) This looks equal to: sizeof( array ) at first glance, which would give the size of the entire array in bytes, but of course the &array[0] ex

Actor's forced Snowden deep voice is hilarious. He's trying so hard, and yet it sounds like a 12 year old trying to sound older. Also expect at least two forced action/drama scenes that never happened. They are staging the H
