The C standard defines the execution character set. First it defines the base execution character set. That includes: upper and lower case A to Z, digits 0 to 9, these symbols !"#%&'*+,-./:;<=>?[\]^_{|}~ , space, ho

So things like GDQ marathons would need to change or get special permission. GDQ is literally the only stream I've ever seen that directly embedded video advertisements for sponsors. Clearly that can no longer be done. But Lets ignore

You still need FDA approval to develop a generic. The FDA will not approvea generic unless both the patents and other legal exclusivities (I think the FDA sometimes grants exclusivity beyonbd the end of the patent). If patents were abolishe

Right, you need to utilize the steamworks SDK to use DRM. And even if you use the SDK, it is actually possible to not implement the DRM. Specifically, you can just not run the drm wrapping tool, and not implement DRM directly though the Ste

I can say that none of Oracle, Sybase, or Microsoft Sql Server really aim at conforming to the standard. While they will often try to use standard syntax for new features if such syntax exists, there is tons of old non-conforming syntax tha

OAuth differentiates between public clients like this (or webpages, apps, etc), which cannot truly keep a secret, and confidential clients (like servers, or apps only installed on one person's machine) which can. Services really are n

Yeah. In hindsight for a fair bit of it, it could have been sensibly changed to implementation defined behavior, or to constrained unspecified behavior. (Constrained such that people know what the possibilities are, but the compiler need no

I believe that is correct. Upon that the child application closing, you loop reading from the primary using a synchronous but non-blocking read, until you finally get back a zero byte read. Since the child process is now dead, and nothi

yeah, at this point, other than type annotations and other type related syntax (like type imports and type declarations), the team mostly view the other differences from Javascript as a historical mistake. Ideally, a transpiler that does no

Right, assuming players have access to the oracle text (the canonical post errata text for the card), and a copy of the comprehensive magic rules, it should be possible to deterministically determine the result of any interaction (modulo an

How are they defining social media use in their analysis? Because I'm not sure "estimated time on social media" is really the best way to measure things. The specific social media services used, and how they are used. Some se

There are two keys that can be used for DID updates. One is the signing key that the publishing server may also control, one one is the recovery key. If a content server goes rogue, the recovery key can be used within 72 hours to retroactiv

Yeah. Take the subscription revenue, divide it up by program based on watch count (or number of minutes viewed, or whatever). This gives you a rough approximation of revenue that can be attributed to each program. From this some proportion

Python does have plenty of metaprogramming capabilities, they just are more complex to use than a macro system. One simple, but highly limited system is metaclasses. Similarly weak but existing features include creating classes at runtime,

True, but the new system will only improve it a tiny bit. According to this post In most of the UI it will use your display name (or presumably your server nickname) which will be allowed to match other users. You can still have matching pr
