Let's say you live in front of the Splunk office, and you see tens of people in suits, a limo with a CISCO sticker, as well as a lot of commotion on the office in front of you. You strongly suspect something is happening, you buy $22k

Well, english is not my first language. What I meant probably got lost in translation :)

My comment is not about changing the language but about the fact that whenever we rewrite it, we improve the quality because of the lessons learned during past iterations.

Simply rewriting it in any language would improve reliability

> 2. presence of settlements is an indicator of political organisation, but political organisation is not a requirement for settlements I disagree. People living next to each other need to reach a political order (organisation) even if i

One could argue that the mere presence of settlements is evidence of political organisation.

We have some people of the road in Geneva. I'm not sure if they're Yenish or not but the usually arrive at the beginning of Spring and leave at the end of the Summer.

Freeciv[1] also has a named port (5556) that once caused me a lot of headache because our server was binding to 5556 and nmap reported it as freeciv, which I had no idea about. [1] https://wiki.wireshark.org/Freeciv.md

C++: Just write Assembly

by sakex 3y ago
I keep seeing claims that modern C++ is functional but that is simply untrue. Most so called functional methods in the standard library require mutating the target (ie std::sort, std::transform, etc.) They are not ergonomic because we have

I'd never get the job given how much of a loser I was in high school.

It reminds me of these movies when the AI starts becoming crazy over time and initially goes into a senseless monologue obsessing about some random subject.

Yes that's my issue, it always come back (like weekly). I was not aware I could add a registry entry. I'll try, thank you :=)

I'd love to have a way to remove Edge. But it seems impossible.

Sure but is it impossible that something would leak when injecting massive amounts of energy in a gigantic tunnel?

by sakex 3y ago
Yes I think it's great, but still it would be good to have research to understand the effect on local population. It is intellectually dishonest to just say it is not possible for anything to leak and have adverse effects on people wit

by sakex 3y ago
Do we know if this could have an impact on the local population? Also is there any research on the effect of the LHC on people living in Geneva and around?

by sakex 3y ago
Fair point. But don't you think that companies today have learned from the mistakes of the past? Also they have way more cash for aggressively buying out disruptors.

0.01% is very optimistic too I think. It could very well be 0%. The reason Google /Microsoft/Apple got to that scale is because incumbent corporations like IBM let them do so, totally missing the bandwagon on the Internet, persona

Yes but you could make a change at the top of the page that would have an impact at the bottom, and that would be useful to see both changes at the same time.
