Uhh that just looks the key up in a python dict in data. That itself is thread safe. But if you read the code more carefully you would see that the _Environ class is constructed from _createenviron[1], where it expects a dict-like global ca

The answer to that may actually be quite simple: The keyboard app is the one that should be allowed to read from the clipboard. Now can a keyboard spy on you clipboard contents? Sure. But it can also spy on all your keystrokes, so the trust

Does that mean that side effects in a move constructor is undefined behavior since you can't know whether it's going to be called? Edit: I see that StephanTLavavej clarified that below.

If you want late binding at the call site it's probably unavoidable to have some extra complexity anyways, what if I changed f into something that wasn't callable? However Clojure binds at the definition time, e.g. > (def

It's true, but you probably don't want TCO for all tail calls since you lose information in stack traces. As long as you have control over all the code generated you can in principle compile multiple functions into a single one an

Sounds unlikely given that you could already give SeCreateSymbolicLink to any users - and the thought that someone could rely on a privilege not being there in the restricted token sounds pretty terrifying to me.

Can you (or anyone else) explain the rationale behind having to specify a new flag SYMBOLIC_LINK_FLAG_ALLOW_UNPRIVILEGED_CREATE? What's wrong with simply just not removing SeCreateSymboliclinkPrivilege from the restricted token, and by
