   On "concise syntax" - this works well when your vocabulary is large. But when you have to search for an English word that's sorta-like what you want to do, and then contort the definition to fit the algorithm, readability suf

   The answer explains this. The number should be ( p - 1) x 2 where p is the number of prisoners. (23-1) = 22 * 2 = 44

    I've got this processor VM implementation that uses an enum for all the instructions and their opcodes - hundreds of them. It's easier to discover missing opcodes with them all aligned.

    If the work can be defined as "derivative," then you are correct. So how do we define "derivative" when it comes to lyrics? Are all limericks derivatives of the original simply because they have the same pattern? I suspe

    "We had two AOL-ers that had distressed babies that were born that we paid a million dollars each to make sure those babies were OK in general." Is this how health insurance works? Maybe AOL is "self-insured"? I don&#x27

    Is this a "me, too" kind of thing? Or is it different than Sound Hound or Shazam in some way? Edit: ah, now I see. It syncs up video, not just scrolling text lyrics.

    "Stupid idea" "Never work" - these are not constructive things to say. They make people have the same reaction you did. "Your go to market strategy needs to fix XYZ." This is the kind of feedback people are l

    I really hope this was sarcasm. But if not... There's nothing here to prevent a buffer overrun. If your src doesn't end in 0, or your dest is too small, you'll be reading memory you shouldn't and/or obliterating mem

    Web browsers are allowed all kinds of leeway with the Official Rules. A prime example is making payments via browsers. Limiting which parts of the actual web a browser can access would be a detriment to even Apple's walled garden.
