It is one thing to have that structure and hold to it, it is another matter to hold sham elections to select possible candidates and then pick people that weren't even on the list. Every time I hear of it it seems to go out of its way

From child molesters in government! I would be surprised if you could find even one country where there wasn't at least one case of a high ranking official indulging in related crimes.

You joke about that, but people who blindly "know things" will refuse to even look at the standard. After all they already know what it says on the topic. So even carrying the standard around with you wouldn't help.

I bet that kind of use of license plates is older than any judge still alive. The hard part is convincing the judge that you can't implement it without sharing the data with two dozen web services.

Well it should be backwards compatible if you just use NULL everywhere where it is appropriate, so you wouldn't even have to sprinkle ifdefs all over the place. Code that uses 0 all over the place would probably have to be updated with

The cleanest way would probably be to get rid of 0 as a null pointer constant, make its use in contexts that expect a pointer illegal and replace it with an explicit keyword. Of course that would break all existing code that uses 0 or (void

E-voting generally replaces tens of thousands of often randomly picked volunteers that watch both the containers with the votes and each other. Messing with that takes a lot more than just flipping a bit in software.

You are saving one register at the cost of having a thread local variable that is visible to signal handlers, so none of its uses can be optimized away. Which results in things like gcc having to decorate every math instruction with code to
