Those cans would require storage for 6 years. Then someone would have to make sure they are used before they expired. Now compare that to cash the company could put the surge of cash into an account and buy the right food.

One could fuzz test the debug versions to ensure it's safe. And they really need the extra performance for prod. Perhaps they are confident that is enough testing? We know it can never be 100%

This is what the article touched on. The culture has to shift to viewing drug addicts not as "druggies" but as someone with a problem who needs help. They changed the language they used to call them. Once this shift happened it&#x

Because that might add a bunch of code that may or may not be useful. It might be that this is inlined everywhere and so would bump some of code to a different alignment. Perhaps it's timing critical and this saved a few calls. Perhaps

If they copied or used code that relied on using the safe memcpy_s, instead of having to change that code to use the unsafe versions, this could just be a proxy layer that lets that code run. This might be done so it's easier to keep t

Amiga 500 had great graphics and music for it's time (1987-) Is there even a comparable PC at that time? I believe we had the Atari ST, Apple IIgs, and Acorn around the time.

You forget that life expectancy for native populations aren't due to them to not living long lives, but more due to the fact they have more deaths at childhood (due to stuff like bacteria infections and other diseases we now prevent).

Yes Egyptians started the "modern" diet of consuming grain/wheat etc. They also have records from those eating that type of food poor dental hygiene. The hunter gathers tribes we all encounter have very low (if non existent)

That is in now way to make a valid point and convince people. It might be true, but some guy who looks crazy making some youtube videos is going to put people right off any point you are trying to make.

Cancer is a fairly modern disease. You can even see from the accounts of encounters with native tribes, cancer is virtually unknown until they start consuming western food.

I don't like where this thought experiment goes. Replace internet with earth. Why is it seen as an obvious truth that we should allow every single person onto the Earth, without ever being able to remove them? What you speak about is t

Safe is measuring how many deaths per user various power generations sources cause. Coal etc is less safe then nuclear because it causes more deaths. Yes when a nuclear accident happens, it can be bad, but that doesn't happen that ofte

It's basically dormitory style housing, but planned for adults/workers. I would use something like this for sure in other countries, like London. Instead of having to go into town every day, go in Monday and come out Friday.

That maths don't add up. If 200 countries need to do 989bn, then they need to do 4.945, let's say 5. If we consider countries with more population are going to plant more (so trees per capita perhaps). We could go with landmass bu

Actually quite a few countries have a high net worth investment citizen track. You promise to loan/invest in the country above a specified amount and you can get a passport. There is the USA EB-5 for example. Reading up, an investment
