The OP is just saying that, because of a not-too-far-in-time religion shift among people of a certain part of that country, there are conflicts. The rest is just your imagination.

Just to add a few details, Cressida Dick is the person who ordered the execution of a brasilian electrician, down in the London Underground. It does not surprise me that aristocrats are in favour of a medical approach to crime: to help enfo

Sorry, I don't buy it. Man kept overpromising (somebody would say "lying") even after release. Now he's on a publicity stunt for the latest and greatest product, addon, whatever, and cheaply plays the always popular vict

Other videos show the area was not "poorly lit". That's only because of the potato cam video made available by uber personnel.

It is not a counterpoint, just a way to show the limits of an overblown analogy. You should appreciate the moral difference between Parks' and Gandhi's deliberate approach and the entitled arrogance of those two gentlemen, whose a

Hi, I've posted a few details and a sample program over here. As you correctly notice, latency is a big issue on modern machines, way worse (in proportion) than it was in the late eighties. But as soon as the wheels start turning, they

Hi! Memory is definitely an issue today, especially with big fat server processors... Here is the small program I wrote, first allocates an array, then writes a random placed linked list that touches all the array cells (e.g. start->|4

I feel the exact opposite... Go is a bold design, if not an elegant one, yet powerful. Rust is a design-by-committee language, built from accretion and removal. Its origins as a managed language, pivoted and is now a second system C++ repla

You are absolutely correct, "mandates" is too strong a word. Annex F, which is normative, have a way out by not setting __STDC_IEC_559__, GCC6.3.0 does set a slightly different GCC_IEC_559. Yet I think that my argument still holds
