Didn't President Reagan fire almost every air traffic controller in thr 80s? Weren't they unionized as well? My understanding is that the consequences of that decision is being felt even to this day. I only know about it because o

The collect_lines example won't even compile, it's not valid C++, but there's undefined behavior in one of the examples? I'm very surprised and would like to know what it is, that would be truly shocking.

Don't see how it could introduce bugs. The point of replacing a variable is precisely to make a value that is no longer needed inaccessible. If anything introducing new variables with new names has the potential to introduce subtle bug

No, the reason I hold them in my tax-free investment account is because you can't trade on margin in those accounts. So the closest thing to margin you can get is a leveraged ETF. I never have to worry about getting margin called, or g

It should not come as a surprise. While it's a bit of a simplification, index funds are effectively a representation of the average surviving investor...that is among all investors, index funds are the average of those who have not yet
