Even if you wrote this in C in the style in which they did it the program would be slow. Since there's no way to "extend" a C string, it would require determining the length of the current string (which involves scanning the string for a null byte), malloc'ing a new buffer with one more byte,
There is. It is called realloc. If you are unlucky, it will just divide the number of times the system actually performs by 16 or whatever the malloc implementation uses as an alignment, but once the allocation gets big enough you get a pages directly from the system, and it just maps in more pages on the end.
Brace yourself, but most people who consume packaged food products have little concern over any chemicals in them.
The corollary to this is most people who consume packges chemicals have very little concern if there is any actual food products in them.
I recently saw "imitation American-style cheese food slices". Now, "American" "cheese" isn't legally cheese in most of the world. So what the fsck is imitation artificial cheese?
I'm not even sure it had any dairy in it.
Reminds of McDonalds in the 90s when they were forced to changed the description of their burgers from containing beef to containing meat in the EU (the meat didn't contain enough beef to qualify as beef, but the pink goo did qualify as "meat") . Always beware of too generic food descriptions.
on the speed of your memory, and the speed of your disk, SSD's are getting more common.
No, it doesn't. Memory is faster. If they get a result saying otherwise, they are doing it wrong, and are actually just measuring the performance of the in-memory cache speeding up the simplest implementation vs the performance of their own crappy implementation.
I call BS. Before the atomic bombs, Japan's strategy was to basically arm every citizen and make the invasion of the mainland such a bloody
No, they were negotiating surrender. They were just not offering unconditional surrender, and the American leadership demanded.
2: An attack on Iran would rally every Mecca-facing worshiper to attack the US and Israel.
No, Iran are Shias. Most of the Muslim nations would love to see them gone.
3: Iran is pretty damn powerful. They sell plenty of oil to China and Turkey. Even with sanctions, they are the top producing car maker in the region.
4: Iran is no "shit-o-stan". Attacking Iran would be like attacking Germany or France, with retaliation that a First World government would return with.
No. Iran is powerful and has a serious military, but so did Iraq. The two were in the same league. Somehow Iraq's one million men under arms was still not comparable to less than 100,000 western troops.
Doesn't BBT say that men working in STEM are actually just dumb kids but women working in STEM are intelligent, rich, well respected and never put a foot wrong? Bernadette and Amy never seem to make goofs or mope around like little kids but the men are so brainless they can't even fix themselves a meal or plan a vacation, it seems. Indeed the most brilliant can't just be an amazing scientist but has to be mentally deficient. Even the supposed "dumb blonde", Penny, merely has to look at the men and she has the idiots eating out of her hand.
Now that stereotype of men in STEM maybe has a lot going for it, but holding up BBT as supporting men as cherished scientific role models seems pretty far off the mark.
That was not the point. The point was how it makes fun of people in those fields in general. Women are more sensitive to fashion subjects than men, and will be quicker to avoid those that are being made fun off.
I would love to care about it, but technologywise most of the smartwatches have sidetracked by using smartphone operating systems and hardware which gets them unacceptable battery life, and all they get in return is phone-apps you wouldn't run on your watch anyway. Smart watches should have focused on notifications and remote control of the smartphone, both with much simpler operating systems, and e-ink displays. Pebble is doing it right, but doesn't have the weight to make mainstream. Android watches are getting there, and slowly figuring ít out, but are still overkill for the form-factor.
Oh wait, no she didn't. Your argument relies entirely on ignoring the fact that from birth until college, women are explicitly and forcefully discouraged from
going into STEM fields.
No, they are not. And most sciences have a majority of girls now. Especially biologi. It is just the technology, math and physics that is left as culturally considered ungirly., and that is rarely or never discouraged explicitely and certainly not forcefully, but subtly through cultural stereotypes. For instance through the nerd black-face show Big Bang Theory.
I use links quite frequently, but I include them according to my priorities, moods, and convenience, not yours.
Your priorities as an insane lunatic, or deliberate troll doesn't mean anything to the rest of us. Site your sources or continue to be correctly and verifiably identified as a insane lunatic troll.
His statement is still true, though. Even the most right-wing liberal European parties are nowhere even close to fascism (which doesn't believe in liberties for businesses at all).
Fascist economics is an economy run by the largest corporation with the backing of the state. It is cronyism taken to its extreme. Economywise all of the west let by the US are descending towards fascism.
It can also be equipped with 16 GB of RAM (vs. max 12 GB for a T440s).
Even T420 can be equipped with a more RAM than that. Just not in the default installs. Remember I told you it is user upgradable?
Yes, they didn't bail out the banks, but in doing so they allowed someone in Iceland to steal £30,000 of my money.
Steal them, as in YOU lost them, by investing or saving money in a deal that was too good to be true, and which then collapsed?
