That can't happen on the internet; it's against the law.

That depends on what the rational person can afford. When they're thinking "500$ means I don't make my house or car payment this month and I'm not certain how I'll feed my family", they may say "I'll

Not directly, but who do you think runs the jails and lobbies for stricter laws to fill those jails?

Better still if it also threw in semi-random "safe" search terms to further confuse the issues.

That must explain my bank's insistence on not having passwords greater than 9 characters, without spaces or most "special characters." They take security seriously!

Don't worry, I don't take your tone personally. :-) I usually only go for half a day (4ish hours), and I wouldn't be surprised if I pay less than the usual turnover rate over time. However, given my locale, it's not un

Perhaps in busier cities, but since I live in central Maine, that's not necessarily the case.

As a telecommuter, I recognize when I go work from a coffee shop that I am using their resources. But that's why I 1) buy stuff while I'm there, and 2) tell all of my friends what a great place it is. If one of my local shops pul

Replace int with long long on a 32-bit system, and the stance remains the same. But you are right, as written it is thread safe in the given context. :-)

It could rely on another variable for computation, and that other variable could be accessed outside of the function. Eg) class c { int m1; public: void set_m1( int i ) { m1 = i; } int calc( int i ) const { return m1 * 10; } }; calc

Dynamic arrays will be in C++14. http://isocpp.org/blog/2013/04/trip-report-iso-c-spring-2013... That being said, you are correct that it would be good to see warnings in something other than just -pedantic for that.

Except that can break compiling projects as well due to /WX (treating warnings as errors).

It would be really interesting to view some statistics as to how accurate the test is across participants. It guessed I was 29 when I am 34, which seems relatively close -- but how do I compare to others in terms of error?

You should try coming into Bangor for the Maine Hacker Club meetings; we host them weekly and it's a great way to network in the middle of nowhere. ;-) http://www.hackmaine.org/

Is there a way for me to get a link to a pre-configured JFDIN command? This would allow me to make a work item for entrenched coworkers and send it to them. ;-)

I'm a bit amazed by how efficient my wood boiler is -- I can run it for several hours off a few logs, while maintaining about 175 degrees in the boiler. On a good day, I end up burning less than a log an hour to heat my entire house, includ

Same is true in parts of the US as well. Here in Maine, it costs 3.80$/gal for heating oil, but you can get wood for 100$/cord. This means I can heat my house with oil to the tune of about 3k/year, or wood for 400/year.

+1 to this as well -- I've been telecommuting for ten years now, and it's always been my view that I have to find the communication mechanism that suits the situation, not the other way around. I think because of this viewpoint, I don't ge

If you have to get congressional approval anyway, why not attempt to fix the underlying problem by not requiring all employee pensions to be funded up front ? IIRC, that's the crux of their financial woes because it ties up billions in a
