There's also the fact that common methods threw exception types that were not final, and in fact overly generic. If I call a method that declares itself to throw NoSuchFileException or DirectoryNotEmptyException, I can have a pretty go

I just tested it by creating a repo with two branches without a common ancestor, and I was able to move a branch pointer to either history with update-ref, so no, I don't think so

To tie this back to TFA, even before we knew that the Halting problem was uncomputable, we could have defined f(n) = { 1 if there is a Turing machine with at most n states that solves the Halting problem; 0 otherwise } and

As I understand it, the C spec defines what are valid programs, and for valid programs, either specifies what their observable side effects must be, or leaves them either unspecified or implementation defined. Importantly, programs with und

And also, the system is a direct descendant of regnal numbering, where zero wouldn’t have made sense even if invented (there is no zeroth year of Joe Biden’s term of office).

I always thought the problem with this was that the compilers do loads of these optimisations in very mundane ways. Eg if I have a #define FOO 17 void bar(int x, int y) { if (x + y >= FOO) { //do stuff } }

On top of all the other problems pointed out, java's checked exceptions don't even do a good job of indicating possible failure conditions. The standard library set the tone on this with exception like IOException, which has an en

Indeed, and even with apples, we can say "the apple is native to Central Asia" without meaning a particular apple.

The version of rigorous infinitesimals I've seen didn't let you have these identities, because e^2 != 0 (because it still maintains the field axiom xy = 0 => x=0 V y=0); but the argument still goes through by carrying the whole
