Industry standard in HVAC is to use a door blower to provide positive static pressure and then use a fogger. It works quite well since you have a direct visual indication and are not deriving loss from a secondary observation (temp/hum

It is not that difficult to implement -some- basic features of static analysis or abstract interpretation. The problem complexity in this area is enormous and it quickly becomes difficult to manage aspects of path exploration and satisfiabi

The interrupt descriptor table in real mode on x86 is stored at the zero page. It is valid to dereference a pointer with value zero under DOS. Modern OS's explicitly avoid mapping at page zero in order to trap NULL pointer dereferences

Putin is a statist who believes the citizens of his country exist to serve it's (and effectively his) interests. Therefore, Snowden will express whatever opinion is most beneficial to the state as it will be the least detrimental to hi

Thank you for taking the time to explain this, I've seen numerous threads where people complain about C but lack enough understanding of it to know where to properly attribute the blame. C shares one common trait with assembl

This is a bad take on a common problem with higher level languages. The burden will always be on the programmer to be responsible for selecting the best approach to implementing any solution while keeping in mind the additional workload the

What you're talking about is called a Transpiler and there are are several instances of them. However, they typically perform a one-to-one translation are not general enough to translate to many languages. The overall issue with this i

It's much more practical to build memory safety into the language than try to invent a system that is capable of policing logic employing liberal memory access. There were some comments by Bjarne Stroustrup I read the other day that ma

Breaking compatibility from the current spec/functionality of python should be a definite no-no for any implementation. That being said, I can still appreciate that they didn't try to write their own busted unicode implementation

Belkin makes a 12v UPS for residential gateway devices. Some ISPs here in the US have been distributing them with their equipment to consumers for several years. I use mine as power backup for devices in case of hurricanes and such.
