Some enterprising individual should purchase the data for the sole purpose of publishing activity of politicians, judges, and so on. I bet you the laws would change in a hurry.

It'd probably be more accurate to say users than developers on the LPAR. I won't name names, though. It was at a Fortune 500, though. Manufacturing sector, not finance.

I don't have any food allergies, either, so I admittedly don't pay much attention to allergens (or even listed ingredients most of the time). I'm genuinely curious, too.

Surely, you aren't complaining of peanuts in peanut butter, so can you share an example, and why the allergen presumably shouldn't be there?

CPython is written in C, and has an extensive API, also in C. A good number of CPython's stdlib is implemented in C. It's fairly easily to write an extension lib in C or C++ or Rust, even, and have python dynamically load the libr

I managed to get 0 mi, as well. I guessed the state based on the first image and was able to rapidly narrow it down from there. Kind of cool today's happened to be in the state I was born in, yet have no memories of.

There is a difference between type _conversion_ and changing the type of a variable. In your example, there's no conversion performed. "a" is dynamically typed, it's type changes with each assignment. The interpreter doe

You also included localized formatting (the '.' and ',' ) in your example that'll likely break on parsing without special handling. For interchange, you'll want to avoid using localized formats, e.g. stick to t

I find POP->DAD a little odd, because I've never (as an American) heard anyone say 'pop' referring to their father. 'pops'? yes. Now, POP->SODA, would not surprise me in the least.

The -A APIs are converted to calls to the -W APIs, IIRC, so you pay that cost everywhere. Not sure if that's universally true anymore, but it has been that way at least on the NT based kernel since...inception? Probably a good question

I picked up a copy of C&C red alert a year ago. Sadly, it's unplayable on modern PCs. At least it was for me. Too many issues, crashes and the game speed not being changeable before game launch and by the time you can change it in

The problem isn't changing implementation. This is expected with shared libs. The problem is changing the contract of the function and then expecting it to be drop in compatible. It's not. It _should_ be treated as a breaking ABI
