Destructuring doesn't cause problems for move semantics, it's that move semantics restrict the ways in which you can destructure an object. Essentially, if you're trying to destructure a borrowed object, you have to use refer

AFAIK isn't this the kind of thing SELinux can take care of? There needn't be any security regression with this change.

I cannot conceive of an example. In fact I argued that it is impossible because of the fundamental rules of conditional probability.

The probability of winning all games is inherently conditional on the probability of reaching the quarter finals. To equate this to common examples of probability, winning at the knockout stage is like flipping a biased coin and getting 4 h

I took a look at the 'Kid Mode' feature on my HTC One. After you add a kid it shows some age-appropriate apps (I guess you can add more) and changes the homescreen activity, modifies the lock screen and intercepts access to other

Presumably the layman has a high-school understanding of mathematics notation.

You are making the mistake of thinking the financial system was designed in any meaningful way!

They did force a password reset on everyone trying to log in yesterday; even if they already reset their password when they first heard the news, effectively locking them out for the evening because their password reset system was understan

Server side includes amount to a preprocessor, no? A lot of code is written that way without major incident.

Sounds like the situation in the UK which largely works quite well.

That was the goal of the C++ STL. Some may argue it goes too far, other opinions suggest it doesn't go too far enough; however I think most people can agree that you need typeclasses/traits/concepts et al. if you don't w

Flying UK-Ireland takes less time than most intercity train journeys, so that is not surprising.

The alternative is you have the police judge you as a timewaster before investigating your claims, instead of after :)

The linked post is by someone in the UK, for example.

True. Looking back on it I was pretty mad at the time, especially over what is a civil matter, but it proved to be absolutely inconsequential.

I was asked to remove offending content too. Like OP they admitted they couldn't make me, but it was implied that it would appease the offended party and make things easier (for them, at least, since it makes it more likely the crank w

Unless policy has changed in 5 years, you don't need to pull strings to make the police visit somebody who made tweets you don't like. You just need to make the right noises and be sufficiently offended such that the police will c

Seeing shady behaviour isn't a reason to stop reading. Seeing bullshit is.

Or alternatively (more accurately?) praying for the good fortune that someone will invest in your idea. Who knows how many almost-Harry Potters there are in the world?

This sounds like the algorithmic counterpart to proof by induction.

It is not a snag but a reflection of the balance of power. Think about it from the big corp's perspective; because they have nearly all the bargaining chips, the negotiation is trivially solved by offering Hobson's choice.

It seems messier than politics in a democracy of 300MM people or 70MM...

This kinda happens already, or at least it used to many years ago; you have to be an active user for your vote to count. The most obvious effect is movies that drop in the rankings 30 days after release; people who just saw a movie give it

You don't need to mine bitcoin to use it. The point of the cheap microcontroller is to enable devices to send and receive transactions.

Users come up with feature requests all the time. Featuritis is exactly what the users ask for.

This is exactly the problem you face in generic programming in C++ (and would have been fixed with concepts). You don't get to typecheck against the possible interfaces some object implements, and you have to be very good at parsing co

The choice of coroutines is not the cause of the problem, it's the decision to store session state on the server and clearing that state before the user is done. This same problem can happen in a PHP application, and it can be avoided

That's just shuffling the question around rather than answering it. Why are more people running caloric surpluses than before? It is not happening deliberately.

Okay, but what about other crypto algorithms not implemented in hardware? Eventually someone has to figure out how to generate machine code that operates in constant time across code paths, and they need a language that will let them do tha

More like the learning equivalent of BitTorrent. I hope they have enough seeders!
