I accused you of doing X on mondays. You could say "You know, in fact, I do X, but on tuesdays". Most hypocrites however will take your question as literally as possible and will just say: "No, I don't do X on mondays&qu

You should definitely look into anarchy. I am serious. If you don't like government, find that sort of anarchy which fits your beliefs. For me, there is libertarian anarcho-capitalism. If you are interested, I recommend you to start wi

Why? It is several percents of current world population. As I point out in nearby comment, if you simply divide this number by 100, you'll get rate that is 4x more than individual murder rate. The invidual murder rate doesn't seem to vary a

Ok, thanks, I added the book into my to-read list, so I'll read it when I have enough time. My skepticism isn't unfounded: I remember watching some TED talk(I guess: by the author of this book -- I googled "Steven Pinker ted talk" but I did

If some guy is bad it doesn't automatically makes Putin good. If democracy in other countries is not a real democracy, it doesn't make Putin a democratic president instead of bloody dictator.

Thanks. This is much clearer description of the problem.

Oh, this is so typical: call something a "danger to society" when actually it is a danger to you and your government. Not only they think that "government == society", but also they think that "their government == society".

Sadly, when there is internet connection, the problem doesn't simply go away. In Russia, internet media are heavily censored too - so internet user has to make effort to obtain the information not biased in favour of Putin's government: the

I believe you should provide some evidence for such claims. Like I said the wikipedia entry(to which you linked) contains mixed data. There are some positive data, like: "A study by Bernadi and Tuzzi finding that the communication of FC use

I understand the problem with non-atomicity, but it has nothing to do with thread-safety of calc(). Executing non-threadsafe function, and threadsafe function simultaneously is not a threadsafe operation. But the article says nothing about

Doesn't matter: any sequence of calls for calc() from any number of threads will always yield the same result. Mutating m1 non-atomically is completely unrelated here, because non-const functions may be not threadsafe. You should just ensur

calc is bitwise const function and therefore is perfectly threadsafe: http://herbsutter.com/2013/05/24/gotw-6a-const-correctness-p... Threadsafety(in this context) means that any sequence of calls of const-functions from any number of thr

I like process substitution feature in zsh. In bash you can write: vimdiff <(ls /bin) <(ls /usr/bin) [ It is an example. In real world, I use this feature for comparing outputs of one version of program with another one ] And this w
