It may not be in the job description but usually somebody has to clean the data by hand or build specialized tools before it can be used. Something as simple as a text field for entering a date can produce interesting effects. Even if your

Your rules are basically "the winner takes it all in the long run". This is similar to reality but real actors can disappear. Individuals have a limited lifespan. Their offspring have slightly different abilities. Corporations&#x2

There is the 80 bit "long double" type that contains excess precision over the 64 bit double type. But if you want to write code that's both, portable, and reliable you have to turn off a lot of optimizations and use 32 or 64

You misunderstood on the meta level. My point was that you want to use one feature of C++, you enable C++ to use this feature. Developer B wants to use ten other features. Developers C..Z want to use different features. Every feature by its

The only argument for C and against C++ is the slippery slope of wanting to use one useful feature and ending up using a thousand features where noone is really sure what's actually happening in the end. Then again they start re-invent

Do you remember the reaction test where a ball is rolling onto the road and you have to hit the breaks? This situation is more akin to a ball laying on the road already and you drive over it. This situation is very clear cut. There is an ob

Only if your speculative reads do cause irreversible side-effects on those caches. You could implement them in a way that doesn't modify the caches... but that would be complicated and probably use more power and have lower performance

As far as I know they HAVE to register a trade in advance. I.E. three months ahead: "I will sell 600 shares on 15th of December if the share price is above 50". This information is public and other people can use this information
