Yeah, but what if someone unrelated to the candidates paid me to blog for or against a candidate?

I like the cross platform support. Linux, Mac, Windows, Android, it works on all of my devices. I'd be afraid that platform specific sync options (iCloud, OneDrive, etc...) would neglect their software client on competing platforms.

Indeed, and sabbaticals are not limited to taking leave for children. They are something entirely different from maternity or paternity leave. Something of that nature is what I am proposing.

It would be in the general interest of society if I took some time off to volunteer my efforts in aid to those in need in other countries (or maybe my own). Maybe I would rather do that than have kids. Should we create a special category of

Let me play devils advocate. Having a kid is a choice isn't it? Why should someone get more time for their elective activities than someone else? Should smokers get extra breaks to smoke that others don't get? Rather than paternit

I hope this never happens. What happens when we can't hold people liable for their actions anymore? Punishment isn't very meaningful for machines, as suffering isn't integral to their experience. If we give robots agency, we

I'm not sure it would catch all the double free errors anyway. Imagine a case where we have x_1 = malloc(n) free(x_1) ... x_2 = malloc(n) // malloc returns the same address as x_1, ie x_1 == x_2 ...
