few students with poor parents (disproportionally people of color) will stay in shitty regular school.

I'm white and this was me. If it weren't for these programs, I'd either be in jail or working retail/fast food. Congratulations on provoking me, I'm going to take a long hiatus from HN now and go build something. I've changed my password to a randomly generated (ephemeral) string on this and my main account; I won't be back to contribute.

Yes but we're talking about today. And C's smallness/simplicity means that bootstrapping on new architectures is straightforward. Meanwhile Rust needs 64bit, etc. just to build. Rust's early embrace of compile-time complexity (ZCA) means this will always be a fundamental problem for the language. In fact it's getting worse over time.

pointing out that such information is available somewhere if I look hard enough does not disprove anything.

I didn't look very hard, I went to the language reference and searched for "?" in the Tokens section.

Were you looking for this?

I'm amazed by the hostility of these comments, including personal attacks, and by this post being flagged. The author isn't some nobody who just finished a boot camp, but a very skilled C hacker. He makes a good argument for the importance of portability, a topic that seldom comes up in the C/Rust discussions I've read.

Ordering isn't the bottleneck at In n Out, it's the food made fresh, sometimes for custom orders. The menu itself couldn't be much simpler. The kids taking down the orders work quickly and are always at the end of the line. That they're friendly humans and not a confused AI is an added benefit.

On the other hand this should work for McDonalds, where nobody's expecting friendliness or much of anything; it's basically a feed trough.

That's the great thing about math: It doesn't care how sincerely you believe that 6 and 9 are the same number. In other words, the kind of game you're talking about can only go on for so long before cold reality makes itself known.

I've worked in newsrooms and disagree with this saintly image of truth-seekers. Yes, the rank and file reporters are not looking to grind an axe; even if they were, they'd be too busy to do it. The well-known writers have huge egos and strong opinions. The editors are even worse.

Also, please don't cast aspersions like "only seems accurate" and "conspiracy theories." There is no conjecture in this editorial: It's somebody's opinion about recent, real developments in major newspapers.

I stand corrected, that is crazy!

She's wrong to imply that if only SolarWinds had followed her iPad password policy, the attack would have been stopped. And she's mistaken about Orion's use case, which has nothing to do with email security.

And while Russia conducted this attack, I'm tired of the Russian scarecrow: SolarWinds' job here has nothing to do with Russia.

But mostly I'm jaded by ambitious SoCal pols neglecting their districts to score easy points on national issues.

Wait for a screen larger than 13"!

Nobody's paying that much for a 2013 MBP. The will have to lower the price considerably before it's "going."

People focus on the password because it's the only part of the story they can relate to or understand. Orange County Rep. Katie Porter:

"I've got a stronger password than 'solarwinds123' to stop my kids from watching too much YouTube on their iPad ... You and your company were supposed to be preventing the Russians from reading Defense Department emails!"

Words fail.

Sartre.

I seriously doubt that most laypeople think that.

Just say nothing, and be there for the longest time, silent and knowing.

Please don't do this.

Too old to recognize the brand, but I'm not following the logic here at all. What kind of clothing manufacturer do you find most appropriate for a street tough?

Your dictionary is sure getting a workout in this thread.

If you're prevented from working a real job, you should receive jobless benefits.

Keep in mind this post is lolspeed porn, not a compelling argument against using a GC in your new project. If you're successful enough to have these problems, you can afford to rewrite in anything.

CMS replaced the guy who turned your .doc into HTML (this used to be a job). Many of these people became LAMP CMF specialists. That transition was at least a decade ago. Sysadmin roles have been under the most pressure since.

Memory management is a distraction: Actually, no. I don’t use that many lexical lifetimes and use instead smart pointers. So yes, I have to understand the differences between a Box, an Rc and an Arc, but my productivity is not impacted compared to Node.JS or Go.

By throwing everything on the heap, I doubt you see much improvement performance-wise over Node or Go. You probably even come out behind idiomatic Go which makes good use of the stack. What's the point?

Don't play coy, the sole goal of your "discussion" and account is to provoke and upset people.

This user's views on criminal justice change like the weather.

Fines and jail time would be a start at correcting policy. Especially jail time for cops who refuse to wear masks.

yeah I think jail is best reserved for cops and politicians.

Perhaps it's best to not engage in further discussion with an obvious troll account.

LA Times, which published the article, has been the worst about this. The headline ('"The Devil is Already Here"') is clickbait trash. Of course, this grave development is already off their front page: Tiger Woods was injured.

What I love about the news right now is that they've perfected the alchemy of turning every holiday into its own news cycle. Gatherings feared... Experts fear another spike. No proof at all that holiday -> virulence, of course. You should try turning off the news for a bit.

Nice race bait/comic book. My favorite grower is owned/operated by an east Asian couple btw. If you know anything about California, the idea of an all-white cannabis cabal is absurd. But that may be hard to recognize from Berlin, I don't know. Okay, that's enough HN for a bit.

LDS are headquartered there and all it takes is a slip of the tongue.

To be clear, this is FUD. If you know how to make SQA emit the right SQL, the performance is basically the same as psycopg2 + your custom code, usually better. I've written many high volume SQA services and never once saw SQA per se as the bottleneck.
