The state has taken the place of the father as the primary bread-winner amongst the working class in the west. Prior to universal welfare most women would never have risked pregnancy outside a stable relationship because of the financial ri

That is incredibly naive. Most women with a stay-at-home man become resentful and see them as a drain on their resources. They rarely succeed even if the man does the child raising household chores etc. Of course there are plenty of success

This articles is a bit flippant. The study apparently outlines a problem in these regions both socially and economically. The articles then goes on to pick a single case in order to imply that it's actually good news for women - and by

This is fantastic. I have heard of a few projects like this. I'm guessing you're natively compiling the C# code. I'd love to contribute but I'd probably just get in the way. Good luck - a glimpse of the future perhaps.

Links would be good. And on that... Could you provide a link to heavy numerical operations - btw, ones that use native libraries don't count cause it ain't the C# implementation doing the work? As I've said there are some rou

You're entitled to your opinion of course. Just for fun try implementing gauss jordan method in C# - it is prohibitively slow once you go beyond a dimension of 10 where you have millions of linear systems to solve. C has no problem eve

Well if you use a poor implementation or the wrong algorithm then you're going to get poorer performance in any language. However, all things being equal, you're not going to get better performance from a higher level language and

sametmax, I think C should be taught after a short course in assembly. Then you can review each compiler you use in terms of what it is likely to do to your source code as you write it. But I agree that for most developers C is probably too

Well I'm one of those idiots then. Currently, I'm employed to write very fast scientific and engineering software. We work almost entirely in C because it gives the performance we need (and not just because of memory management).

pj I always detect a degree of "disdain" for C in your comments. Back in the 80s everything was system programming if you wanted performant software. C replaced Pascal during the 80s because it was a better language - simple as. T
