The "evidence" is that it was not in his will. Where do you think we should draw the line on what could be called a Nobel price? It is not like Alfred Nobel did not understand economics, he just (highly probably) did not want such

Google left China, Apple crashes your phone when you get a Taiwanese flag (in China), who cares about privacy? Never Apple. Apple only cares about your money. If you care about privacy (I mean really care) use Replicant. (updated spelling)

Generics are useful all the time. That is why Go has generic Maps and slices. The question is why I am not allowed to use other generic collections.

I can not create a really mean example because Go is Turing complete. That means that everything can (with a few extra lines) be expressed in Go. The problem with your mutex solution is at least two: 1) it is more complex * more lines to ty

If you value compile times (and you actually think generics make a difference, I do not) you would not make slices and hash tables generic like in Go, would you? If you wanted a simpler language, you would not make slices and hash tables ge

You can not have a custom collection class containing objects _only_ of a certain type. For example ConcurrentHashTable<Int, String>. That is something that is used every single day. It is used so frequently that Go has generic slice

If the hardware is done correctly, and used correctly. Previous Secure Enclave on iphones did not work even though Apple and its user said it was secure. Why trust them now?

But we do not know if it works, do we? Previous implementations have been crippled in ways that suggests that it could have been done on purpose. Limit the password to few characters and permit unlimited tries on the "secure" hard

I am not defensive, even though it might sound so, you see I am not German, in fact, my grandfather did flee Nazi Germany. I believe they deserve credit for how they are handling their history.

Japan lost the war, yet they still can not educate their population about the horrors performed in Korea and China. They pretend nothing happened. That kind of response does not foster forgiveness. Germany on the other hand _really_ have ta

Nah, that is only the character position sets to change, you also have to permutate the characters (which would be 2^(4*8) if we consider byte characters) Or did I misunderstand you?

You can permutate all possible character positions for combinations of four changed characters, and for _each_ permutation permutate all four characters and then compare the hash, and if the hash is the same you do not accept the password (

A static method can of course mutate an object of the same class (give the object as an argument (direct or indirect) or use a static variable of the class) I can not see how they could be used to help escape analysis more than that you hav

G2 seems to still get updates if you install LineageOS. My Note2 works beautifully. It is a pity that you have to install it yourself though. On Apple you get updates for as little as 2 years (5s). Neither is good. I would so much prefer bu

Interesting, I have disliked celery during my childhood, but I like it now :-) Though, I have always thought (and still think) celery has a peculiar and quite strong taste. Lettuce I can agree does not taste that much.

So if they succeed to split would you call it tyranny not to let pockets of Castilian speaking minority areas in Catalonia claim independence? Maybe joining Spain? Where would this end (maybe there are pockets within the pockets within the

If you see data structures as cyclic, it is not "in large part due to laziness", but _only_ due to laziness. If you look at the memory representation I think (but I am not sure) there will be no cycles between allocated objects. O

qsort(3) is quite slow because it can not inline the compare function. If you created a 'generic' bubble sort that take a compare function pointer and no LTO optimization (or use an inlined c++ sort), the quick sort algorithm migh
