American Evangelicals seem to gravitate toward their belief as a form of authoritarianism. It's less about compassion and more about incontestable moral authority over others.

If you think a textbook is good, the digital edition should available for review as they will often be invaluable in hardcopy for continued reference. I am pleased the author adheres in some part to this mode of thinking.

I agree that CTU analysis makes it better. There are also a bunch of tunables for the clang analyzer that you can take advantage of that suites like CodeChecker do not fully allow access to or take advantage of.

I hated that about DOS, real-mode and BC++. After about 6-8 months of that misery, installing linux and learning to write C code with GCC was the best thing that ever happened to me. I felt like an animal being released from a cage and into

If you come across a newer HP printer, the best thing you can do with it is disassemble it for parts to make other things. They are full of precision rods, rotary encoders, DC motors, and such. If it has a built-in scanner, you'll also

I fully agree with this perspective. The terminology will change as the field continues to evolve. As long as any anthropomorphizing terms are chosen carefully and are not aggrandizing, it shouldn't be a problem. IIRC "hallucinate

It's entirely possible the government exposes individuals with SCI type clearance to disinformation or fabrications to convince them they are real, and then watches them to see if they can keep it a secret. This would be a ideal way t

This is another part of clang I've considered be almost, but not quite there yet. Some of the calls to the API are not very intuitive and they left too much out of libclang for it to be of anything but limited use. I am not a C++ guy,

I haven't seen any recent comparisons but the most recent benchmark I saw was that gcc/clang were close. I'm sure the speeds vary quite a bit depending on project size, options, available RAM, etc. IIRC using LTO makes linkin

This is a bit of a biased take. The military uses a purely authoritarian system of management which is entirely different from anything in a civilian occupation. There really is no free choice in an authoritarian system and failure to follo

Having worked with clang (and gcc) quite a bit, there are a number of good points the author makes. There are a lot of cool things llvm/clang has, but it feels like a lot of the tooling does not mesh together as well as it should and s

This was my take when people suggest older cars as an alternative. Safety has improved dramatically in the past 20-30 years, especially with side impacts where fatalities or serious injury can be common. It's one of the few reservation

In this you are likely correct. It's really anything that is allowing unlimited money (goods or services) to flow into campaigns from industries or unknown origins. It's also the court which is limiting voting rights. Those are tw
