My guess would be it worked perfectly while testing, but with the update of the calculator (part of the OS updating) lots of other things got updated also, making the calculator become unresponsive while doing the animations.

Not when they enter it, but after a while they have learned a number of Italian words. http://www.musictheory.org.uk/...

My first program was the Sieve of Eratosthenes in Algol 68 in 1978. After handing in your punch cards you had to wait 3 hours before you got your results, of some syntax errors.

Also embedded software engineer and don't like to use dynamic memory allocation.

The only time to use recursion is when I have to print (to serial or something) a number in binary form and you can not use printf because your system is to small.

It will not be corrected, it will change. And again and again.
Problem is, we got used to an interface. My lucky way out of this problem was using a few different OS at the same time starting from Windows 2.0, RiscOS 2 and later Mac OS9. This way I knew there are multiple solutions to a UI and didn't get hooked on a single way of doing things.

What I would say about the code:

1: the size of data is not given
2: the code doesn't check if the malloc is valid;
3: you malloc 200 but copy 2000, hope thats a type
4: you don't check the result of send_buffer
5: send_buffer is not a standard function, you have to check what it does.

I agree, for you and me.

But in this case, it was just clickbait and they knew exactly what they were doing and that it was illegal and they did it on purpose.

This is a site that organized the first ever referendum in the Netherland. After they won, they told they just did it because the could do it, not because of the subject. It screwed up the relationship between Oekraïne and the EU. They did it for fun.

Problem was that in this case, the party was not legally hosting the content. They were photo's published before the playboy was sold and published on an Australian site. Definitely not legal.

The court already ruled that linking to a news site is no infringement, but the photo's were not legally hosted. If you or me link to that site, it's not a problem. If slashdot does it, it is.

All I can find is the pmset command, available from a terminal. See man page
But i could not find something like "active" or "passive"

My dentist first recommended flossing, some years ago she recommended using dental sticks and a few years back we indeed needed to use interdental brushes. You can get them in different sizes. If the space is really to small, use small dental sticks.

For a large gab at the back, I use still some dental floss to get food out.

Exactly my experience. What I also did was connect a small HD to it. Now the smart TV can record programs (a feature I never use) but also pause TV or go back in time. After pause I can skip commercials.

One other thing I use is the ability to watch missed programs with the "Program missed" app but I don't know if every country has that.

And for my streaming I use the Serviio program using DNLA (because I need subtitle working). The TV is also a LG tv.

I have followed your links but without trucks and busses they registered about 4.5 million passenger cars. The other links said MORE than 1 m hybrids were sold, not the exact number.

For last year I found this page: http://www.best-selling-cars.c...

I don't know which cars are hybrids but number 1 (Toyota Aqua) and 2 (Toyota Prius) are both hybrids. Maybe it's not more than other cars but it still amazes me how many hybrids are sold.

I have to disagree with you on experience. Maybe you are working in an other field of programming but I see younger programmers make mistakes I did make years ago (embedded systems).

As you say: "Technology hasn't changed sine the 70s,...". Doesn't this implies that experience can help programming?

Maybe the engineers at Apple thought of an attack vector to unlock the phone, something like: connect a fingerprint emulator to the phone and try to let it connect. If you give an error and don't do anything they could keep retrying and unlock the phone with the fingerprints on the phone this way.

A way to let nobody access the phone is brick it, but maybe they should give some more warnings.

On the other hand, maybe the error that Apple made is not bricking the phone, but to give to little warnings before bricking the phone.

Is it not the other way around? You pick $40 and see what you get for this?

If you could choose 50 Mbps for $20, 200 Mbps for $40, 1000 Mbps for $80 or 2,000 Mbps for $160, which would I chose?

50 Mbps?

Sorry, where I live the choose is:
Fiber 100 Mb/s €15,00 p/mnd
Fiber 200 Mb/s €25,00 p/mnd
Fiber 500 Mb/s €35,00 p/mnd
