This is how the system ends up as a maintainable mess in the first place, where the fix for the aforementioned bug was to +8 and move on, which causes (at a later date) some other section to break because instead of 25, it's returni

Mate you said: > Real-time programming can be done in any language, Java for example That's absolute bullshit. Please get a Computer Science education before making yourself look like a fool.

Real time programming requires you to be able to make hard guarantees about how long a certain piece of code can run and what resources it uses. This is literally impossible with a GC because you can only bound one resource (time or memor

I don't think you understand what real time programming is.

They didn't say it uses O(1) complexity: > Analyzing the above approach, we have an algorithm that takes O(n) time and uses O(1) space.

Isn't there a Bitcoin fee to open/close a channel and then the fees involved sending via lightning nodes? Also the routing problem is starting to become an issue with the network at just ~5000 nodes - How will it scale to millions

You can't do a 1 cent transaction with Bitcoin either. The future is fee less cryptocurrencies.

If it wasn't for Rails, Ruby wouldn't have had half the success it did. This is not the case for Python which is used for things besides Django.

I've found it slower. I gave up on multiple monitors because I can't carry them around with me and many times I like to work away from the desk. As a result I'd find when I'm on the laptop, my work flow would deteriorate

Couldn't they put a random piece of paper in the ballot box? What happens if a white piece of paper is found? Do all the votes in the box get cancelled?

A programmer who by default adds a good concise readme to his projects is an indicator that the same will apply to the codebase, in that he will plan for the future. I've seen it too many times, exceptions are rare. A good readme is

In the long term any vote based community turns into an echo chamber. The popular opinions win. The users with unpopular opinions get downvoted/censored and are either banned/leave. Leaving one opinion behind. Moderators also a pl

So choose between: 1. A developer who doesn't respect himself first and foremost to write a README/maintainable code so that his future self and others can have an easier time. 2. A developer who cares about communicating his wo

Using 'something you know' it's possible to both verify how your vote went and at the same time not allow someone else to know, even if forced. A simple example would be assigning a random color to each option per person. So

This is how it actually works: 1. Mobster goes in to vote but doesn't put it in the box - he takes the blank ballot paper outside with him. 2. He fills the vote on the ballot and gives it to the coerced voter 1. He expects a blank ball
