Is the 80% absorbed Vitamin C through transdermal route cross the epidermis & dermis layers?

Well, there are already multiple skin creams with Vitamin C. They have been available for a long time, but they are expensive for what it provides. Just taking a 500mg x 2 Vitamin C supplements should provide enough for skin repair.

Show me a memory issue that was caused by proper usage of POSIX concurrency primitives.

Dude, provide examples of "terrible" memory issues. Otherwise, you are just repeating the folklore which is outdated.

What is wrong with C++? With POSIX semaphores, mutexes, and shared pointers, it is very rare to hit upon a memory issue in modern C++. Source: Writing code in C/C++ for 30 years.

It is true that LuaJIT is stuck at 5.1, but you could write any performance critical sections in C/C++ and call it from Lua. Lack of LuaJIT for 5.1+ isn't that big of a deal for desktop apps. The embedded world is still stuck in 5

The C++ code I wrote 20 years ago also had strong typing and clear lifetimes. Modern C++ has reduced a lot of typing through type inference, but otherwise the language is still strongly typed and essentially the same.

Probably true. Math used to be written in prose style before we invented symbols to compress the prose. Most of the symbols are very recent just in the last 200 years or so.

Yes. You could match packets based on username or even SELinux labels. You could also set a special mark on a packet for each container and then filter based on that. The Internet is surprsingly very thin on nft resources. I spent a few wee

Yes. Any message exchanges should have type encoded like in ASN.1, but not sure whether NASA used such a format.

Not sure whether they used a value pattern. typedef struct { float value; } meter; typedef struct { float value; } feet; Using strong typing, you can avoid passing values in wrong units.
