and a quick note about that: a competent manager should know it's worth paying someone twice to do a program 3 times faster that will not have to be rewritten 3 times by 3 different persons within the next 3 years.

Which is the signature of a company to be avoided at all costs.

The real problem with people hiring developers is that they often see development as a first step in life, which a preparation for another job having management responsibilities for instance. They don't understand that some people consider development to be a career, like to code, like to learn technical stuff and don't consider changing for management positions. Moreover, a "natural selection" eliminates the worst developers in their 20's who naturally turn to other jobs after a while. Of course, there are still a bunch of incompetent older developers - but thanks to these many years of experience, it is usually much easier to discern the good and the bad from older developers than from beginners.

Hmm, a code is supposed to be read and maintained. Using ugly hacks whenever possible is more of a showing off attitude. You know the "I use ugly hacks to show how good I know C, and then I post it on github to reach as many people as possible" attitude.

That taxi, the one who insulted me when I dared to insinuate he took a longer path? The taxi as nice as a prison gate? And yet expecting a tip? Oh yes, unfortunately, I know.

Yet another recurrent "Uber is evicted from [somewhere]", Could we have a status on where Über is still allowed/active/authorized/working?

The most plausible theory is that microphones are made and sold on Earth to work at soil level, or at least where humans can still hear from their ears, where air is dense enough to propagate sounds. "Near space" would be better for light, certainly not better for sounds.

Between unofficially, militarily and secretly recording and storing all and every digital communications
and
officially requesting ISPs to maintain a "black box" that records information, at the ISP level, which do you prefer?

I teach you C - or at least the things you ignore - anytime.

In C, the compiler doesn't care if you return nothing from a 'int' function. So, while 'void f()' would be cleaner, only 'f()' without a return type set (ie 'int') is seen a lot.

The guy is probably proud of his prog, that's why he published it. Indeed, that's more a C approach than a C++, but anyway for solving a sudoku there is no need to put in place a lot of complex data structures.
What I like in this prog is that he optimizes the process by simply considering that since any 1-9 digit can only be once in each column, each row, and each of the nine 3×3 sub-grids, he uses a 10 bits int and associate 2^i with a digit (instead of an array, or worse checking all digits each time). Then 'Place()' recursively tries only possible combinations which converges quickly to a solution.
Good prog. I wish all political figures would be able to show such an artwork!

A C programmer would put it as 'void succeed()' or even 'succeed()'.

And anywhere else kids are taught to shoot at men and other various creatures through violent games. Which is worse?

But you'd have to apply the same rule to the European rate to get something comparable, wouldn't you? However in Europe, in order to avoid crime-race dangerous and abusive aggregation, the rates published do not show associations between crime and skin color.
