More or less true; those who hold data bear responsibility for it. The biggest issue is that unlike, say, bank robberies, people can steal data from beyond the long arm of the law. As a sidenote, where do you live that firearms owners are

I think you're right. If there's one thing we've learned, it's that all information which is stored digitally will be leaked at one point or another. We need to focus on storing less information wherever possible. Also

While you're right from an exercise standpoint, you're dead wrong from a design one, at least if you want to apply it broadly. A lot of us live in places where summer days can easily top 100 degrees, and the better part of the ye

You're absolutely right. The thing America most needs to do is open her borders to truly free trade with the world, with the exception of Red China and a few other nations we want to topple. More than that, we need to build free trad

I too am wondering about this. There's a lot to learn, and it doesn't help that a lot of the info focuses on older C++ more than the modern variety.

How does one determine when a bug is in the compiler vs. just a dumb code error? Examining compiler output?

My username is a dead meme that is generally used to ironically mock oneself as stupid. Also, y is only sometimes a vowel for a reason; it's not the same open-mouth sort of sound as others. I think there's a big difference than

It's more that any word where one has to slow down and insert extra time between syllables so that they are distinghishable and intelligible is a "poorly designed word". Otherwise, it starts blurring due to the lack of a con

And the funny thing is, C++ is so complex it's the last language I'd expect to have multiple optimizing compilers (though rust is probably similar, I imagine.)

Spacex did launch a rocket with an electron interface... In practice, though, V8 is the serious impementation. The interesting thing about C and C++ is that I don't know if any given dev is using Clang, GCC, or MSVC until I ask him.

It's interesting when you look at it from this perspective. AWS and other big IPv4 owners have a financial incentive to hold back IPv6 deployment in a convenient and scalable fashion, because that would quickly wipe out billions in va

I'm somewhat inclined to agree at first glance. If I see unlimited, I expect to get the value. I only order the "unlimited free refills" coke if I'm going to sit and work somewhere for four or five hours, since it&#x27

Oh cool, thanks for commenting here. This is off-topic but I had a question from a post a few days back about google drive dropping unlimited storage. Someone mentioned that the economics just don't work long-term due to people who a

As far as the user is concerned, imessage does mostly operate with another "open" platform, SMS. Certain features don't work for apple users texting others, but core functionality is intact. This is also because apple innov

I had similar issues and will say that quality varies wildly between models. I had a bunch of 9560s that all had awful problems (to the point of return) until I finally returned the last one and got a 9570 (I had done this enough times tha

I was always under the impression that this was the intent and was trying to imply that English was basically bastardized German. Is that not what Twain meant?

I don't believe that's possible either, but processing can make a lot more surface area available on which enzymes can then act.

I wonder, does it know how to transpose? People may end up humming tunes in different keys that their voices can more easily reach. Also, why the hell do I need an app for this? Is it actually running a local model? Because my guess is t

I don't really use google for anything; I never did, which probably made it easier than for those who had to switch. For e-mail I run a standard dovecot and postfix set up. For drive, I just scp files to a server. I don't take

You can find usbc ports exclusively on newer macbooks and ipads, which is pretty significant, and they also come on the desktop macs. I'm guessing it will appear in iphones at some point; I believe Apple was considering a switch for t

In fairness to Apple, they didn't just make other ports for the sake of it. When lightning mini was made, it was objectively better than mini-USB. When magsafe was made, it was objectively better than barrel plugs (and for charging,

The issue is not the fallout but the fact that a nuclear weapon cannot be targeted - it by its very nature and design harms innocent civilians. Compare that to a fierarm, which can obviously be directed one way or the other. It's the

I typically use less than 300MB for the same reason. It's too pricey for my taste, so I just use only a little bit when necessary. Honestly, waiting for wifi isn't that bad and I can download most of my work in advance.
