Both of them are perfectly free to stop trying ports of IE.

And a "Gigabyte" really means a single byte that is very large; weighing in at least 10 pounds or more.

You misspelled BSD; it doesn't have any 'w's in it.

Have you seen how big the Android phones are? Now remember this is Japan. :P

Ahhhh. Sweet, sweet, delicious tears of self righteous rage. Especially those from the line-toeing groupthink against special handshakes.

You can, if you redirect their standard streams right after forking off.

Yup, it's completely true. We all email each other and hold secret meetings with our own special handshakes. And you're not invited. All to make you rage those sweet, sweet tears.

That's a whole lotta words just to say "Please mod me down, I wanna pretend to be ironically persecuted so I can feel vindicated".

As in my example, calculating sizes. Often when working with memory buffers, when you multiple the number of something by the size of it.

Who said they were bad?

I was about to make a joke, but seriously, the only language I can think of that doesn't have some nasty gotcha is . . . . ugh . . . BASIC. Python has the whole whitespace deal, Perl code tends to be unkempt, Java is fuggin java, Ada is a secret government spy, I don't even want to talk about C++, Bash is fine as long as you never have the misfortune of using quotes or variables, C guarantees regular segfaults, Matlab/Octave will delightfully inform you of your bugs deep in system library code, SAS's userfriendliness pars that of installing Linux from scratch, you can't write more than four lines of Fortran without painting some Star Trek action figure, and just fuck Cobol.

Honestly, BASIC's wins this round just by virtue of being so limited that it's hard to shoot yourself in the foot. I don't count GOTO, as jumps aren't really language specific. Having tutored programming for years, I can say that students are perfectly able to write speghetti code with or without goto. :p

I agree, and as annoying as it is . . . it really is a *very* bad habit to assume transitive property holds for most operations. For example, if a > c and b > c, it's not always the case that a + b > c. Or a * b > c. That's a nasty way to introduce a security exploit when using malloc (eg malloc(sizeOfObject*numberOfObjects)).

I personally complain a lot when I see those bugs in C. Great way to troll C newbies though . . .

Password hashing has always been easy: $hash = substr($_GET["password"], 0, 5);

:p

I know it's a joke, and that there are genes related to intelligence, but AFAIK there's no common gene for making stupid decisions.
