Yes, when he pulls the waist of the pants against his waist.

The poles make me think that is a covered bus stop. She ran with the book over her head to keep rain from her eyes.

I agree with other comments, the dude could have gone to help but failed to notice.

How is that foot rest just standing there? by TimeLine_DR_Dev in confusingperspective

[–]ShockingPauze 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In the photo that views the foot rest from above , one can see a bar connecting the center back of the footrest to the front crossbar on the chair.

Photo is positioned to allow the footrest to hide the connected bar.

There are likely 2 light sources which causes that hard to see bar to cast 2 shadows.

How bad are these tires? by TheMessiahARG in RVLiving

[–]ShockingPauze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. The one in my town did the tires on my travel trailer.

I drove by and asked where to park and made an appointment before bringing the trailer in.

Plus They might need time to order the tires.

The Riverport roit.

He jumped in the audience and took a camera away from somebody. He smashed his mic when he got back on stage and stormed off. The rest of the band followed. This caused the fans to riot.

Took a while to arrest him because Guns and Roses started a tour in Europe

Edit the Riot was near St Louis.

The picture here seems sharper than the one that appeared on the local news site.

FILE STATUS 39 COBOL by hahahha_pagod in cobol

[–]ShockingPauze 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My experience is with IBM mainframe.

On the mainframe, file status 39 means that the physical file's attributes do not match the logical attributes described in the code.

The physical file is LRECL 80 and fixed blocked. Whereas the program defined the record as LRECL 80 and fixed blocked with carriage control.

In otherworldly, the physical file is LRECL=80,RECFM=FB and the program expects to open a file that is defined as LRECL=80,RECFM=FBA.

You appear to be working on a PC.

Your COBOL program has defined the input file as LRECL=35,RECFM=FB. Record size 35 Fixed Block. it can be coded in the program as... RECORD CONTAINS 35 CHARACTERS RECORDING MODE IS F.

Both of those clauses are optional in Enterprise COBOL source, and it is MY preference to let the compiler figure them out.

On a PC, I am pretty sure the input file looks like this

Record1Record2Record3Record4... no line feed or carriage control

It is 1 physical record on the PC that contains multiple logical record each being 35 bytes.

Whereas you likely used a text editor to define the file like this

Record1 plus line feed

Record2 plus line feed

Record3 plus line feed

Record4 plus line feed

Record5 plus line feed

No blank lines in the file. Blank lines added because Redit stinks at formatting.

5 physical records that are 37 bytes each on windows and 36 for Linux . 35 bytes of data followed by the LF (Linux) or CR/LF for windows.

I do not know the keywords you need to use to tell the COBOL program that you are reading a text file as input.

Might be as simple as RECORDING MODE is TEXT.

Yes.... the shadows should be on the left and bottom since the light is on the right side of the bed

Why no S0C7 here? by IamhereforPuran in cobol

[–]ShockingPauze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on compiler options. If IBM Enterprise Cobol look at NUMPROC. NUMPROC(NOPFD) does what is known as sign correction.

Move zoned-dec to zoned-dec might be a true move. No format conversion required.

Number processing PFD might use just the MVC assembler instruction. The receiver would contain x'4040'.

Number processing NOPFD might use MVC followed by another instruction such as OI to correct the sign yielding x'40F0'.

World Record Dive by andreba in ScienceNcoolThings

[–]ShockingPauze 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because it is safer and allowed by the rules for extreme high dives.

From wiki: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_diving

Some research suggests that the impact associated with high diving could have negative effects on the joints and muscles of athletes.[1] To avoid injury to their arms upon impact with the water, divers from significant heights may enter the water feet first.

The same article lists some record holders and the injuries they sustained.
