BB(n) for any particular n is always computable, no exceptions. There simply is no single computable function that can compute BB(n) for every n, but for any particular n there absolutely is a TM that computes it.

You're mostly correct but to be pedantic, in C the literal value 0 does not actually mean address 0. The literal value of 0 is an implementation defined value that represents a null pointer, but that value does not have to be address 0

The comment specifically referred to references and pointers whereas your example does not.

I'd say that Windows and Office are the two areas that Satya didn't really touch or influence in much of any way and mostly let continue on autopilot as he focused on every other area of Microsoft.

Also worth mentioning that for a period of about 8 years the U.S. government had a guaranteed buyer of U.S. debt, the Federal Reserve, who simply printed whatever amount of money was necessary to purchase U.S. bonds on the open market to th

People tolerate being lied to by politicians because they see it as politicians having to convince others to go along with a plan they believe and agree with. They don't see it as politicians lying to them, it's politicians who th

Funny you bring up Charles Darwin, since Darwin was never an academic.

I'm going to let you in on a secret... Every single publicly listed company, every single one of them, is off when it comes to calculating their taxes by way more than just a dollar. And I don't mean clever accounting tricks or ta

I have no idea what "production possibility frontier out through actual research funding/ focusing..." is even remotely supposed to mean, but the Canadian government invests in a wide array of areas including industry and res

For the same reason farmers don't own grocery stores; making a film is different from distributing it. The filmmakers know how to make a film but they don't know how to release it to movie theaters and actually receive payment fro

Starcraft 2 kind of ruined what made Brood War special and turned the RTS genre into a kind of rock paper scissors where the computer does most of the work. It was almost certainly unintentional but in Brood War the game is soooooo mechanic

I think you have a misguided idea that most people at the gym are buff, muscular, etc... This couldn't be further from the truth.

Interesting, almost every case I know of where a fire alarm has gone off, no one really cared. I even remember a fire alarm going off in an actual movie theater and no one budged. I'm going to maintain my position that a precondition f

Just to put things in context, the average tenure of a CFO among S&P 500 companies is 3.5 years. I don't think that's a big deal, but apparently people commenting here think a CFO departing is some kind of major signal of some

by Kranar 3y ago
Actually the vast majority of the time it's not at all a big deal. The average tenure of a CFO among the S&P 500 is 3.5 years. It's really not a big deal.

by Kranar 3y ago
That seems like a contradiction. How can something always be a big deal if it can mean nothing?

Man the irony of your comment... it is in fact you who did not bother to verify that in fact this article was not published on April 1st.

This isn't a random blog post and the techniques in the blog are actually used by the standard library and some pretty major C++ libraries such as range-v3 and fmtlib. The author of the blog post is in fact one of the authors of fmtlib

Don't see what is incorrect. What you're talking about is taking advantage of a feature mostly unique to Linux (memory overcommit, not supported on Windows or most other OSs) to construct a vector whose capacity is some really lar

Debunked might too harsh of a claim, but the book does not make any strong testable predictions so that it can either be validated or debunked. The book certainly is not fraudulent in anyway, but the research is of quite limited value. Clai

Fork's copy on write does not mix well with garbage collection.

Then the semantics are not well specified.
357.
by Kranar 3y ago
Safe means that every operation has well specified semantics. Some languages, notably C and C++, lack this property.
358.
by Kranar 3y ago
Safety means no undefined behavaior. It does not mean free of bugs, or security issues, or free from crashes. It simply means every operation has well specified semantics.

If you genuinely have massive performance demands, stay far away from coroutines. For whatever reason the approach C++ took makes them incredibly memory hungry and inefficient.

This is simply untrue and you are unlikely to find any country that has such absolute policies codified in their law. The example you give, Germany, has its own form of affirmative action codified under the Allgemeines Gleichbehandlungsgese
