Most of C++ devs think that C is part of C++. Even in this document it is stated something like: C subset of C++ vs C. Why? Because current C is not subset of C++, C++ is compatible with C89 or C90. This can look like nitpicking, but it's

Agreed. Everytime i get back to C it's like coming back home. But first you must study it hard to make it your home. On the other hand javascript (lang i'm using at current job) is like living 'Groundhog Day' with everyday finishing with su

It's better to typedef void ( * fptr_t)() and cast to fptr_t instead of void * But it's bigger problem how to force users to cast it back to proper prototype, because casting it back to something else will give UB.

Same as with Gerard Depardieu. He/they made choice not to be in one kind of dictatorship so they escaped to other. So it seems like pretty subjective stuff (personally i think it's wrong), but it's their choice so who cares. Why do you care

UDP doesn't have any guarantee that packet is received. If you stream video that can handle few lost packet it is ok, but if you need reliability than you need TCP. So, it's kind of programmer decision what to use. In reality there should b

Can you define Pirate party politics? When you think about it's not party, it's movement and because of that it should ugrently define coherent politics or it will be 'less elected'. Pirates don't have consistetnt politics! I had impression

Get away with what? Isn't MIT network open and isn't JSTOR allowing everyone from that network to download articles? I'm really not informed about this, so please inform me. On the other side it looks like witch hunt from the start.

How do you "allocate" memory on stack? You can always do 'double arr[huge_constant]' and, depending on resources, overflow heap data. Or with recursion. Damn those bugs >:-) The thing about C is that programmer should do check size befo
