Show me a pilot that has to rely on their instruments and I'll show a pilot who can't fly.
Contrarywise, show me a pilot who *can* rely on their instruments, and I'll show you one who can land at SFO in the fog.
If the advertisements really are worth as much as they think, then they should be paying me to watch them.
They tried that back in the AllAdvantage.com days. It turned out to be unsustainable as CPM rates plummeted.
Netflix users with DVD service have several years of experience learning to wait a year for the current season of shows. It works the same with streaming.
Except that people who wait a year have to make an effort to avoid spoilers and have no chance to discuss plot developments with their respective social groups.
So how do wash the wings right after takeoff?
I think that's going to add quite a lot of time if the plane has to circle really low for multiple passes each time for Jose to hose the wings off.
The C++ standard library is already licensed to the public through ISO, as are the POSIX APIs through IEEE.
That's a hard position to take here with all the opinionated freeloading IP burglars since when they are not whining about ISPs (ex. Comcast, ATT) limiting their content stealing abilities
How is it "content stealing" to view licensed video through Netflix? Or are you claiming that Netflix's license to the video it offers is invalid?
or criticizing anyone (ex. Microsoft) who wishes to turn a hard-earned buck for the quality software they produce at great expense
Most of us don't criticize wanting to earn a buck. We criticize anticompetitive methods of doing so, such as exclusive (or effectively exclusive) deals with all leading manufacturers of a particular class of hardware.
the residents spew their hateful anger at those (ex. Oracle) who wish to protect their IP
What is "IP"? Copyright, patent, trademark, and trade secret are very different beasts. If you mean copyright, say copyright. If you mean patent, say patent. If you mean trademark, say trademark. If you mean trade secret, say trade secret. Or did you mean stealing an IP address?
from downright theft
Copyright infringement and theft are distinct offenses. In the United States, the former is always federal, and the latter is generally handled by the several states, becoming federal only if goods are carried across state lines.
If there's a silver lining, it's that this will breed further contempt for the law among the educated. As they flee its jurisdiction.
Very little of the industrialized world is outside the jurisdiction of the Berne Convention. Where were you imagining that they would flee?
Good luck getting things like the film Song of the South, the film Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night, and the TV series Spartakus and the Sun Beneath the Sea on any service. None of these has ever been released even on DVD or BD in North America.
How the heck was I supposed to know that a 64 bit flat architecture (pointer range compare across arrays = flat arch) would someday come along that still set int to 32 bits?
How the heck were you supposed to know that your code would run on a flat architecture? Pointer range comparison across unrelated C arrays has been undefined behavior as long as I can remember. Besides, even among flat architectures, the common ABI for the 65816 has 24-bit pointers and 16-bit ints, and the common ABI for the 68000 has 32-bit pointers and 16-bit ints.
That's last year. It's been replaced by systemd.
Is systemd written in JQuery?
The obvious solution is to just make sure they never go out of business. Too big to fail.
I think you maybe mean "Too much personal data to fail"... which is an incredibly disturbing thought.
Do you defend every company which charges premium prices for a product where they limit your ability to do something every computer has been able to do for the last 50 years
Of course.
I will happily defend IKEA for selling me a chair that is limited from being able to do *anything* "every computer has been able to do for the last 50 years".
Except, you know, being sat on. If I can't sit on the chair, I'd be pretty unhappy. On the other hand, not every computer in the last 50 years has been large enough or flat enough to sit on. You gotta draw that line somewhere!
But what defines a "decent GitHub folio"? Does work in other programming languages count? Does work in other subfields of software engineering, such as video games vs. accounting software, count?
Sparse array entries, in general, are not necessarily immutable, although they may be so in this case.
The interface in the PDF describes a mutable sparse array with immutable entries. To assign a new value, you'd delete the entry and then add a new one.
