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.

Not sure that's the only reason. Some of these people are just looking for something in which they can get deeply involved, out of the ordinary society stuff. They would actually love being enrolled in some armies to fight for a country, kill or be killed, but they just don't see themselves fighting for our western countries. So the actual reason may not really be Santa Claus / God / Mahomet / [...] and the "eternal bliss", but just the desire to fight for something in which they feel more free than within the regular organized and stricter western armies.

So yes, we really want this kind of discussion on Slashdot.

After the Paris "Charlie Hebdo" shooting, it was obvious that such an event, in Texas, would be well protected against similar attacks. Isn't that attack another proof that fanaticism == stupidity?

Absolute zero? Pluto's min temp is 33 K, quite far from 0 K.
