I'm not sure what you mean by safe in this context. A language that forces type casts to be explicit? That throws runtime error when invalid/imprecise cast is done?

Why not nix the range check and just rely on the cast? As pointed out by another poster above, there are double values outside the ±2^53 but fits inside long.

I'd say just put volatile and be done with it. Now your -O3 will also break, but at least it's consistent with -O0 :p

When doing floating point arithmetic on the x86 though, it can extend to `80 - 1 (sign) - 15 (exponent) = 64` bits. So if the result of a floating point just so happens to have zero exponent, the mantissa can fit just right in a long int.

If people are buying more then it means more demand, leading to increased price, unless there was an excess in supply (production capacity) in the first place.

And when the shareholders want to maintain their after-tax income, they can certainly pass the buck to the customers or the employees, to a certain extent.

Well, this is an arcade machine, and the setting is much more casual, so ikko is just as acceptable. The problem is, as GP pointed out, with ireru. I can think of some alternatives 1. koin wo ikko irete kudasai 2. koin wo ikko ireru no da!

NewsGuard gave Breitbart green rating this year, citing that it regularly issues corrections. Facebook's choice of news sources probably works on the same guidelines. Of course, the good sources are the ones that do not publish errors

That's not how big organizations work. Having 100,000 people doesn't translate to having proportionally as many people with skills to do testing and QA. Human resources are not really that fluid.

I thought KOHCTPYKTOP would be featured :( It got me into pondering how actual logic circuits work (as opposed to theoretical circuits with instant output).

Is the OOM problem still there even after Quantum release? This was the main turn off factor for me with FF long ago, and when the OOM fails to even trigger, the famous swap thrashing occurs. I tried again with Quantum, but then there were

Interesting that the concept is based on steam engine. Would there be a way to recondense the steam for reuse, or did they plan to just release all of them? Then they would need to run on water, much like the steam locomotives of the past.

Sometimes I wonder how the Chinese felt about the blatant IP theft by the British ages ago. I however am grateful for the fact that tea became more accessible due to that. We wouldn't have Assam and Darjeeling otherwise.

Reference is among one the things I really want to be included in C. Does it break anything if it's introduced to the standard? On the other hand, I still prefer C to C++ mainly due to the compile time (an incremental compile in a typi

The part when they said they spent a lot of money to port to C/C++ but couldn't get same efficiency/speed, that's the problem with most porting endeavours: you need people who grok both languages you're porting from

Sometimes I confuse the meaning of light-weight to be something that "does simple thing quickly" instead of "easy to setup". The last time I played with Mathics (maybe 2 years ago) it was still much, much slower than Sym

Wow. That somehow explains why we end up having very dull monotonous icons in many things today. One of the GUI desktop applications in my company had a redesign for a new release, and they opt to go for the Material Design[1] icons. I rem

My experience with Delphi-based Windows software is that they always load quickly and and most things are snappy, in contrast to most modern programs. I've always wondered if it's due the language itself, but then again modern pro

That requires you to have ssh server running if you to use it with WSL. You can't use it as the frontend to powershell or cmd. That said: yes, it's alive and well. I'm using it at work, mostly because that's what everyon

Something to do with python 3 using long† integer as the default int, which can be arbitrarily long, so it may have slower arithmetics. † not to be confused with the typical C long int type.
