It's true that I like to be technically correct. I don't consider this a problem itself. In fact, it can be quite important for programmers and mathematicians to be technically correct, as this bug in Cap'n Proto illustrates quite nicely.

However, this is not the only reason I'm pointing out that this is not a compiler bug. The other reason is that there are certain implications:

1. The compiler developers are likely to declare that this is not their problem.

2. The problem may exist for other compilers as well: even if it complies to the standard it may do this. Even worse, it may only show up in a new version of the compiler, or in specific situations.

I am not saying that this is a good situation and programmers should just be more careful. Everybody makes mistakes.

The root of the problem is at the specification. Ideally, there would be no undefined behavior. From an optimizer's point of view it is very sensible to assume that the programmer will not invoke undefined behavior and use optimizations based on this principle. People surely love a compiler which produces fast code, so it may not be desirable to totally eradicate undefined behavior (and end this kind of optimizations).

The most practical remedy I see is to add a debug flag which crashes or somehow indicates undefined behavior. Indeed, GCC has done this. So ultimately, we seem to agree that the compilers should change to improve this situation.

Not to disagree with anyone, but just thinking out loud, some of those arguments seem valid only because the current means of flying assumes straight runways. Like the ones about how existing instrument systems and procedures, made for straight runways, will be inapplicable to circular runways.
If beach erosion were the problem, maintaining barrier islands makes sense. But when the ocean levels are rising and simply crawling up the beach, putting everything underwater?

Sure, we could probably engineer building up the coastline with higher land to maintain the current coastline, but at what expense? At what point do we just decide that the coastline is moving inland and we should just follow suit?
That could explain one of the three.

Well, I'm typing this on an X61 (the laptop type). Yeah, vintage :)

It at least ships with a draft-n-capable Wi-Fi card, so you could use it for remote desktop? :P

(For reference: I push mine WAY too hard. This is tab 406... I do use The Great Suspender, but, um. It does great (genuinely does hold up) with <15 tabs though, and the GM965 handles 1080p through mplayer and 720p in Chrome really nicely.)
does anyone know, how hard it would be to have a compiler flag -Wundefined that tells me when i write code with undefined behaviour?
this way i can fix these issues myself and don't have to rely on the compiler inferring my intentions.

>This, incidentally, blows out of the water the argument made by some feminists that women don't do STEM because of conditioning in nasty patriarchal societies.

No, it absolutely does not.

You suggest "overall society might affect individual choices" and then from that premise reach the conclusion "overall society definitely does not affect individual choices."

>[Women get into] tech [in Russia] because it provides a way of getting a good life. In the West, where conditions are less harsh, women don't feel the need to go into tech to get a good life.

Consider hypothetical societal differences [that may be patriarchal] that may make "a good life" to a Russian woman a totally different thing than "a good life" to an American women. Consider, even if definitions were identical, societal differences [that may be patriarchal] that may make make pursuing a good life much harder (or even downright impossible, see Saudi Arabia) in one country vs another.

I could go on.

For one example, after Title IX of the Higher Education Act was passed in 1972 female enrollment in medical school went from around 10% to over 20% in just 2 years. It's now around 50%.

I do somewhere; I'll track it down and relay the numbers.

I don't understand your logic here. Isn't the more natural conclusion that the desire to get a good life is stronger than the conditioning?

In the book I think she makes a pretty strong case that the wide disparity between public schools in the US is a major driver of real estate costs.

A single income family that is outbid for access to good schools through real estate prices may send a spouse to work to get access. The single income family that is now excluded may do the same. Eventually you reach a tipping point where every family is expending maximum income to fit into districts with good schools.

One thing I believe the book missed is that having two income families also has the impact of degrading the very same school districts as the book ignores the contributions of the non-working parent. Parents who are dedicated full time to raising children volunteer at school, have more well adjusted children and their social networks stabilize neighborhoods. The same forces that move families to send a spouse to work are the same that degrade the very schools that they want access to.

The result I believe is a game of survivor where couples with children bid for smaller and smaller islands of the middle class and more couples opt out of having children.

How schools are funded is obviously an issue in the US but also explicit tax transfers from single income families to dual income families through things like childcare credits and mortgage deductions also contribute to the demise of the single income family.
Well, the argument comes from the fact that the most gender equal countries still have very high level of men and women assuming traditional gender roles.

The phrase used in China was that women hold up half the sky, and the expectation was that males and females participated equally in the economy.

While there has been some regression on this coinciding with more exposure to Western culture, I still notice that there is a much higher proportion of women in Chinese tech companies than in Western ones, although not a 50-50 split.
I feel like this is the entry point to a new piece of dark speculative fiction, in which extreme age is venerated, and the number of goats attached to your back becomes a symbol of your wealth and power.

Entire cities will have to be moved as even a few meters of rise can flood an entire region.

It is not as if we just lose a bit of beach, if sea levels rise then everything at the new level that can be sought by water through rivers or otherwise will be under water. Not Atlantis style, but no longer habitable by cities as we currently build them.

What's more, the coastline going missing is but one symptom. Weather patterns are set to get more erratic and extreme which will cause significant damage and loss of life continuously for the forseeable future.

As we are being reactive rather than proactive in this matter, it will likely take significant disasters before anyone begins to make the changes even once weather begins to worsen and cities begin to sink.

That's a good point. I'm not sure how you'd get around non-HTML documents (eg PDFs) but web pages themselves can be excluded via a meta tag:

<meta name="robots" content="noindex">

Source: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/93710?hl=en

Interestingly in that article, there is the following disclaimer about not using robots.txt for your example:

"Important! For the noindex meta tag to be effective, the page must not be blocked by a robots.txt file. If the page is blocked by a robots.txt file, the crawler will never see the noindex tag, and the page can still appear in search results, for example if other pages link to it."

I must admit even I hadn't realised that could happen and I was critical of the use robots.txt to begin with.
"Sure, you could stop using that part of the runway"

Would you have to stop using that part of the runway, or stop using it within a certain height?

That is to say, while landing, if at that part of the runway the aircraft was already solidly on the ground would it still be a problem? Likewise taking off; if the take off point was simply well before that part of the runway, would that be fine (have to think it would be, because after taking off the plane has no reason to follow the runway - it's already gone)?

If that's fine, then would you actually have to stop using that part of the runway? Could you just rotate the landing/launch points so that nobody was landing/launching at that part?

Erosion is the difference between being able to live in a home on stilts, and having the land beneath collapse into the ocean. There is land below sea level and it experiences erosion too. Rising sea levels accelerate erosion, which clearly doesn't make it less of an issue.

This. I think encouraging women is discouraging in itself. It includes an assumption of power and superiority, and opens them up to doubts and criticism about their technical merits. The best would be not discouraging anybody at all, then those naturally inclined towards the field will be attracted by themselves.

A thing that all of us can do is to get rid of their prejudices for real. We like calling things mysogny and racism and attack, but what they profoundly are is hereditary prejudice which only heals through self-education.

Edit: prejudices are not limited to white males, but we all have them (obviously me too, thus having to do this edit).

No it doesn't

At most it suggests that in more desperate circumstances women will be motivated to climb that hill and struggle through it

It doesn't mean there isn't a problem
If they're anything like my country, Poland, and we were pretty similar before (together in Warsaw pact) there basically doesn't have to be any "encouraging women".

Your gender doesn't matter that much. Both men and women usually pursue most of the majors. And in physics and maths you usually substantial amounts of women.

In IT, being pretty fresh in this part of the world, men are majority but still not overwhelming.

Anecdata: from primary school to the end of my university I've only had male maths teachers for a year and a half.

I don't have an immediate source for this but I have an impression that post-Soviet societies are a lot more equal than Western ones.

Not to diminish the terrible situation of the victims, but looking at maps and pictures [1], it seems to me like a very unstable land: It dried over time, diving under the average sea level, and it's been kept free of water only by humans' constant work. Didn't we do a mistake here by considering it habitable in the first place? Imagining humans as a single entity, should we have settled there, climate change or not?

I don't think it's that hard to reason about.

Checking for overflow (and pointer-out-of-object-bounds, which is a special case of overflow) in C is like defusing a bomb: you can't cut the red wire and then see if it exploded, you have to check that it won't explode before you cut the wire.
I think the situation is a lot more nuanced than that. The issue was that additition overflow is undefined behavior for both signed ints and pointers (but it is defined for unsigned ints).

The fix commit changes it to use an unsigned integer type instead, so it seems like a concrete example for the exact opposite of your suggestion.

The Geopolitical Impact of Climate Mitigation Policies – HCSS
I think the more time goes on, the more the idea of gender roles being 100% socially constructed seems untenable. It would make sense in a world where human being are purely rational agents, but we still carry the baggage of evolution and having to survive in nature. It doesn't seem unreasonable to think that some of the specialist selections (including psychological) that have evolved into men and women would persist in modern times.
Maybe it's just because most men don't want to do feminine jobs and most women don't want to do masculine jobs. We're all social human beings at the end of the day, and we want to be cool, attractive individuals, and most of us care about others' eyes on us.

I'm embarassed somewhat to say this, but over the past few weeks I've been taking the courses on Khan Academy on mathematics. I'm nearly 30.

and I'm not talking about brushing up on my linear algebra, that comes later, I'm talking high school level mathematics, stuff that I've largely forgotten or didn't "get" first time round.

I've seen these "machine learning for hackers!" articles who try to dish out a bit of maths saying that's all you need, but I don't think you can escape the fact that sometimes you just need to start from the beginning and work your way up
At issue is deteriorating coastline due to projects by the army corps of engineers. Don't confuse this with global climate change (although I'm sure it doesn't help).
Not so much "do what I mean" as "do what the underlying hardware architecture does". For example, on pretty much any machine your code is likely to run on these days, pointer arithmetic is the same as unsigned arithmetic, and so it's quite reasonable to expect C compilers to treat it that way. The spec can't mandate this because there are some obscure historic systems where pointer arithmetic is bounds-checked in hardware or has other oddities, but people not writing code for those systems shouldn't have to deal with that.
More so, cities are disproportionately built near the coast line as water access is very valuable for trade and commerce, so relatively little land needs to be lost for a large amount of city real estate to be lost.
Compute is cheap. People are expensive.
Yep. They just expected women to be able to do the same thing as men. There weren't these half-hearted attempts to "boost diversity" that just never, ever feel genuine. There are Russian greats across the board both male and female -- even pre-soviet. But yes, female astronauts, engineers. Go back a couple centuries, and you had Catherine the Great -- one of the greatest and longest tenured Russian monarchs, a woman. The faith of the Russian people -- the Orthodox Faith -- venerates a woman as the "greatest Saint" and the "Queen of Heaven". It's just always been a part of the mindset. So women are everywhere and it just isn't treated as anything out of the ordinary, or as hitting some diversity figure. It needs to be natural.

There are a lot of female young (and not-so-young too!) scientists in Russia today.

The pay is not great and a lot of hoops to jump, but the hours are usually flexible. Maybe some women don't feel pressure to be breadwinners, so they can choose a career in science, but men feel that they have to make more money than science ever promises in Russia.

"Tech people want to believe that the gender disparity in their field is shared among all the STEM fields"

It's convenient for both women's studies departments and tech recruiters to pretend other fields don't exist. It is taboo to talk about it, to the point that I haven't come across any serious piece of writing that dared to seriously contemplate the question of "what are the girls choosing to do instead?", but I don't think it has much to do with psychoanalytic undercurrents.

I have read it. The rant does explicitly not quote the C standard, and instead informs us of how compilers should work according to the author. Historical context does not change the content of a standard.

From the 2007 draft for the C99 standard[1]:
"undefined behavior: behavior, upon use of a nonportable or erroneous program construct or of erroneous data, for which this International Standard imposes no requirements"

[1] http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n1256.pdf
This is not just humans, virtually every species has obvious gender roles and proclivities. Where humans differ, is our faculty for reason and (to some degree) overcoming our intuition.

In my opinion, it's obvious that women being under represented in STEM is caused significantly by both evolutionary /and/ cultural factors.

Why would I use nginx and go through the hassle of configuring let's encrypt and sane SSL settings when I could just use caddy?

But seriously, for all "hobby" projects I've started recently, and even some production services now, I go straight to caddy.

My config consists of a 1 line global config file:

import sites-enabled/*

And 90% of the individual services have this config:

example.com {
proxy / http://localhost:5000 {
header_upstream Host {host}
}
}

Compared to nginx it's just so much simpler and so far I haven't found myself missing a single feature. (In fact, caddy has active health checks, which nginx only supports for its extortionate enterprise fee)
UK. Modern cinemas are built with multiple restaurants often with an entrance inside the restaurant itself.

In extreme cases you have to walk from the entrance to the back of the complex (passing by maybe a dozen bars and restaurants), get to the end, hop on an escalator to the next floor and walk all the way back past more outlets. It's only then you reach the cinema.
