My point, if it was not clear - is simply that if you want a near complete (you'll always have strays) compliance rate - you need to have laws that the subjects are willing to follow - in another words, that they respect.
dynamic memory allocation is very much frowned upon in embedded systems, not just for strings.

Everything should be static and deterministic at all times. This is the easiest/only way to ensure you have no resource issues.

You should always (statically) allocate for maximum/worst case.. because you have analysed your worst-case, haven't you?

I wouldn't assume there is such a thing as a single, monolithic "white culture", to start with. (Or black culture, or Latin culture, or...)

Stuff White People Like describes what is specifically the culture of coastal urban white hipsters, which is a relatively small subset of white people in the US. It's really inaccurate to think of those traits as "white culture" period. And I'd call what SWPL does with its subject matter less "celebration" than "savage excoriation". Maybe the people it describes don't take it so; I don't know. I've never yet knowingly run into anyone who took it any other way.
Looks like fixing an issue that does not exist.

Progress and research in cybersecurity: report from the Royal Society [pdf]
There are lots of people who live in minority neighbourhoods in other countries. They will immediately recognize the environment. According to the statistics, these people are even the majority in places like the US or Canada.

The no-go zones are actually way less dangerous than many other areas, because you have the "Sharia cops" chastizing misbehaviour locally. Thieves and burglars run away to the police for their safety. It is really not a good plan to get caught stealing or engaging in similar mischief over there. Of course, the corollary is that women who desire to walk around scantily-clad in public should probably not pick that kind of neighbourhood for that.

In fact, it would be your airbnb host who would have to clarify everything to you. In a sense, he is responsible for this. It is part of his responsibility in terms of hospitality to help making sure that everything goes alright. If he has good ratings and feedback on the platform, it should be no problem, actually.

I am quite sure that you can locate places to stay on Airbnb in La Courneuve, Paris, an otherwise notorious "no-go zone". No-go zone mostly means "don't go there" for the police and State officials. It does not concern or affect other people that much.

EDIT: I've just looked it up. The Paris, La Courneuve no-go zone has 300+ rentals available today: https://www.airbnb.com/s/La-Courneuve--Paris

Well, people, this is open source: contrary to commercial products from Adobe, you can do it yourself and get all the features you want! Also, nobody is asking you to use GIMP; you're just welcome to make use of other people's hard work here.
The small community around Slava Pestov was (is) great...

The standard library is amazing and they (used to) follow a model that has worked well for them (IRRC): the best libraries from the community become part of the distribution. If they aren't that well written, the core guys would help you express the idea better. And then it could make it into the standard library. Or the core guys would just rewrite it for you (Factor is very compact).

On the other hand, if something solving that same problem was already in the standard library, there was no discussion: that problem is already solved.

Happy to see that Factor still lives!

SkyHistory – a full featured Skype chat history manager
SkyHistory enables you to store and manage Skype messaging, filter chats and browse through saved conversations chronologically.
There is no more need to make your way through piles of personal messages to find valuable pieces of information you received a couple of days ago. SkyHistory is a Skype account manager to categorize all the chats with the date and time. It is available now with our built-in calendar which lines up all the chats in chronological order. We built in a calendar which lines up all the chats in chronological order.
The redeeming feature of SkyHistory is its intuitive and straightforward interface. You can download the free version here and browse your chat history with pleasure. Moreover, we provide a 30-day trial version without limitations.
You could also bookmark the key messages to get the immediate access to important texts. This feature is available only for a full version of SkyHistory (license purchasing is necessary). One more paid feature is a search bar to find keywords of crucial Skype chats when the date of the conversation simply slips out of your mind.
How it works:
First of all our app creates a database which imports all previously saved Skype chat history (full version), 5-day chat history (free version). In other words, it works with a separate GUI based chat manager and all your contacts are imported unchanged, including Skype lists titles and the group structure.
Upon your wish, you could sift through what part of chat history will make up the core of your database. In case you have no desire to keep tracking conversations with some people you could disable that function.
SkyHistory Dev team created an above-average feature: your database could be located on a portable device (stick, drive). It means that any device you are using to skype will have manageable Skype browsing tool at hand.
Our Dev team is happy to cooperate and looking forward to being at your service. Please, drop us a line to skyhistory@scand.com
> an arguably frivolous lawsuit.

I know you're not talking specifically about mcd coffee suit, but there's nothing arguable about that one; because there's still some measure of belief that it was frivolous here's a quote taken from the wikipedia article[0]:

> Liebeck was taken to the hospital, where it was determined that she had suffered third-degree burns on six percent of her skin and lesser burns over sixteen percent. She remained in the hospital for eight days while she underwent skin grafting. During this period, Liebeck lost 20 pounds (9 kg, nearly 20% of her body weight), reducing her to 83 pounds (38 kg). After the hospital stay, Liebeck needed care for 3 weeks, provided by her daughter. Liebeck suffered permanent disfigurement after the incident and was partially disabled for two years.

> Instead of this heavily anthropomorphized view, cars are much more likely to have a highly simplified, "bug-like" level of information to work from.

Not even close to "bug-like". At the top of modern AI, we've got deep-learning and reinforcement learning.

You probably underestimate the very complex brain that even a bug still has. Maybe also overestimate what today's AI is capable of. You can't build a house with two lego-bricks, just as you can't build a (real time) bug's brain with current-day AI.

It's a humbling process, AI research, finding that even quite "simple" organisms are still miles ahead of our technological state of the art.
Bitcoin works based on incentives. There is no reason to go off-chain if you're not getting paid. And OKPay is not an end-node in any system. What you "really" want is to be able to send all assets in the system integrating banks. So the supernodes will be banks, i.e. large liquidity providers with a legal framework. LN is technically interesting, but there is no plausible scenario to make it work IMO. And if, you'd be way better off with redesigning Bitcoin and getting rid of some major drawbacks there.
I have used Gimp for many years now. I ditched Photoshop a long time ago.

The one feature I am looking forward to for editing in this release is the Select remove holes feature.

Having to expand, contract, and feather selections to remove the small holes caused by a color select with a threshold value was a real pain.
And all of these are so obvious that it should be called 'undergraduate coding rules for any system'.
If we're talking about high reliability code, one thing claimed about Haskell, is "if it compiles, it has no bugs".

BitKeeper 7.3 released
here's the problem. Photoshop blows gimp out of the water in every way that is important to designers. GIMP is quite adept at simpler tasks/flows i.e. the stuff most people might want to do to an image, crop, put some text, etc. really no major diff here between it and ps. and this is why i teach it to relatives/friends who want to edit their images on a budget.

But it is very difficult to make professional grade designs/templates/mockups with gimp (i would venture impossible but im sure someone could do it given enough discipline just as someone could build a httpserver in pure x86 if they really wanted to)

source: long time Gimp and Photoshop user, have worked professionally as a UX/UI/Graphic designer and software developer, and have really tried to get on board with gimp bc its open source, saves $50 monthly, and is hackable all unlike ps, it even has a lisp scripting language! I couldnt do it even with that much goodwill so i honestly cant see any less motivated designer using it.

EDIT: of course designers or a ps alternative might not be gimps market at all, and instead just normal end users, in which case gimp should definitely not be criticized. I think people (unjustly perhaps) want gimp to be a ps alternative for designers, its not. plain and simple.

Haskell's type system protects from a certain class of bug, but it can't prevent logic errors - something like using < instead of > won't trigger a build error, but it certainly is a bug.
Let me pop-on my tinfoil hat first here...

I don't think this has been the case for a long time. The US government is subservient to its own interests, and no other - like any other government, its citizenship benefits only as a coincidence of the actions of the government, not as an intentional boon to the citizens. Appeasements are made to keep a docile citizenship, and otherwise the condition of the country is made "just good enough" for those in positions of power to live the way they want, on the tax payer's expense. The system of checks and balances is a farce intended to give the illusion of control, but ultimately those with money or good connections (often one begets the other) live by a special set of rules.

The idea that the general public has the power to somehow control the Federal Government or even local State Governments is simply inaccurate - the Federal level is protected by its own allegedly self-correcting system which basically means that they decide their own fate, and the State level avoids problems simply by throwing more money than the citizenship can muster at any problem.

Individual public servants may enjoy helping their fellow person; bus drivers, postal workers, maintenance crews, I do not doubt they take pride in the work they do to improve the places they live and the people they serve. But the organizations themselves, the structures that these human workers live under, are machines designed to benefit a small elite few privileged enough to be part of the oligarchy.

This is how governments work - they're a soul-less tool used by an elite few, given legitimacy from the citizenship through the elective process, a largely ceremonial event at this juncture. Even a direct democracy still surrenders power and riches to a small few - the white salary from the contract may say one price, the perks and benefits though add up to something else completely different.

By that logic, power lines taken out by tree branches weighed down by snow and ice looks much the same as terrorism too.

The laws violate human rights. People should not have their right to contract denied. Actions that infringe upon the rights of others, like damaging the common area of an apartment building, or creating noise pollution, can be justifiably prohibited, but not actions that are non-infringing and only deemed to be correlated with the infringing action.

In other words, prohibiting short term rentals is a form of repression.
Having a look at the engineering requirements there are guidelines that I've seen that are used by medium to large scale organisation just simply to manage the project and code base.

Some of them seem to be universal such as statistic code analysis, heave use of sticking to a sub-set of the language that is well defined (Deterministic behavior). Sticking to a over-all coding convention and naming convention. Modulation of the code-base. Avoidance to thread's mutating the state of shared objects between threads (Share state between threads only in a single location eg.. IPC). Similar thing happened with java API with the designers attempting to make the language library thread safe. They soon discovered that was a real bad idea and backed off from that very fast.

At work I joke with my collegue's about the java framework they use they've now moved back to static enum's and static control id's for web pages instead of dynamically generating them on the fly. It's to a point where I feel like I'm programming win32 gui's all over again.

It's a whole lot more difficult to change/remove laws than it is to add them. Maybe not "technically", but it seems as if they gather momentum by being implemented, and relied on by a multitude of parties, that they essentially become entrenched.

Not to mention the fact that we don't hold people accountable for questionable outcomes after the laws are enacted. We're essentially stabbing in the dark, expecting to have a more "accurate" stab the next time around using previous experience. Social policies, and their results are inherently grey, and we should treat the laws that surround them as such.

You didn't answer my question. If you believed your ideology was morally right, you would not shy away from directly answering questions about its values.

Here's the question again:

So because we haven't created a law designating some group, defined by the consensual behavior they have in common, a protected class, it's morally okay to discriminate against them?
