Not to mention, yummy.

I saw that too. It does seem sloppy, but of course it was not actuall "free" but sitting in the lifo.
It was an un-dead chunk of memory :)

From a brief glance it seems the freelist was barely useful, since if the chunksize you wanted was not the chunksize of elements in the list, you had to resort to a normal malloc anyway. Seems the size of the first entry in the freelist lifo dictated the size of all the chunks in the list. Seems a lot of effort for little return.

Ok lets get it over with and let the government pass laws to make it impossible to sue any corporation, because that's where this is going. Large corps are like gods to our government worms, and you can't sue god right?

Go away little annoying customers. Go away..

He does. He also considers himself the best programmer in the world, everyone one else are just insects to him. (no kidding).

For starters I am by no means an expert in programming. I know enough to be dangerous, and to serve my own personal projects.
A while back a programmer friend of mine was guiding me in programming. Back then I wrote some C code, and in a error handling routine, I used the dreaded GOTO statement.
Boy did this unleash his complete wrath. He could talk about nothing else afterwards.
I was berated, screamed at, told I will never be a good programmer. I should give up now. GOTO's are the tools of a lazy ignorant and bad programmers. I am the worst programmer ever.. On and On. Any programmer that uses GOTO is a bad bad lazy programmer.
I then grepped through Linux kernel sources, and showed him that I found over 200 uses of GOTO's. He of course said they are not real programmers and they are just hacks, are lazy and stupid..... On and On...
So out of curiosity about the OpenSSL bug the other day, I looked at the sources, and low and behold, GOTO's everywhere.
I was shocked. Was this very important software written by hacks? Lazy, bad programmers? No wonder the serious security flaw..
Is GOTO the gold standard of a bad lazy programmer?
So I must ask you guys.. What's the deal? (needless to say I don't use them anymore :) )

A fundamental law of physics is that information can NEVER be destroyed (even in a black hole). So then, it's theoretically it's possible to retrieve the data no matter what you do.

It has to be because were dealing with an ac coupled signal. And the impedance would be wrong. Simply wouldn't work.

People think that politicians on committees are by default, advocates of what that committee represents, in this case science. However in government, it is a powerful tactic to form a committee with the sole purpose to subvert, control, or even destroy that which it supposed to support and represent. What better way to change something that you don't like than to be in a position of making important decisions about that thing. There is a calculated reason why there are no scientists on such committees. That explains why they make no attempt to even have a high school level of understanding about science and it's methods. Because it's not about the science to them - it's about control. They already have their opinions formed and the rest is just window dressing. As you said they are very intelligent about how politics works. Why else would people so out of touch with science, who even hate it, want to be on a science committee if not to throw a wrench into the works and control it, and to use it to support their political (and religious) agenda.

I ran a computer consulting company for years. I used to sell 5 - 10 new custom built computers a month. Now it seems the small device market (phones and tablets) have destroyed that. Perhaps I can get the government to make phones and tablets illegal, so I can go back to building computers and making profit...

On satellite data. No debris found yet.
And whats more disturbing, to me at least, is that they texted family members about this - I'm sorry but that's just un-cool and callous.

I never said over the internet.. Local LAN only. I would never run X over the internet.

Does this mean I don't have to lock the doors on my house when I go out anymore?

You know you can forward X11 over SSH right?
So the answer is: anything you want, be it GUI or not.
