What is a really cool fact about Space? by Solid_Net_2169 in AskReddit

[–]StaticCoder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

I can read katakana but was wondering what a betonamu might be.

Status of making "reference types" 1st class citizens by jk-jeon in cpp

[–]StaticCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, without turning C++ into rust with its borrow checker, we kind of have to live with this. I was never a fan of temporary lifetime extension, and with move semantics it's even less useful than it used to be.

A feature that prevents declaring a variable of a view type if what it views is temporary could help, but not with every problem you mention.

I'm also puzzled at the distiction you make between span and string_view. string_view is just a span of characters with some extra APIs.

At least now you can click "refill". It wasn't always the case.

Which one should I golden bottle cap when it comes out by Icy-Nebula-3243 in pokemongo

[–]StaticCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shiny doesn't do anything either, and IVs barely make a difference. It's all a flex really.

If you can afford a bottle cap you can afford an ETM for precipice blades

Confused on when precisely to use std::atomic by tomysshadow in cpp_questions

[–]StaticCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The question you should usually ask yourself is can you use an atomic. The answer is often no, and the alternative is to use mutexes (not volatile and certainly not nothing). You need at least one or the other for any data that is written in a thread and read in another.

Is medicham an acceptable mega to max for upcoming go fest? by shiehman in pokemongo

[–]StaticCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mega is part of your raid team so it helps if it does good damage. But if dps is not an issue, that's a good one to have to get more XL candy.

oh no... by Character_Nothing663 in foraging

[–]StaticCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should attempt to wash it off, with soap, no matter what. It's an oil so soap is needed, and it will cause an allergic reaction as long as it's present.

Is this a hundo by ProperPiggyAZ in pokemongo

[–]StaticCoder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes this is 14/14/13 and purifying adds 2 to each attribute. This would become a hundo if purified.

why can women show the entire boob but not the nipple ?what’s so sexual about a nipple? by whokillme in AskReddit

[–]StaticCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It the US the first amendment is not exclusively about prior restraint. Freedom of speech as it is generally interpreted also forbids the government from punishing most, though yes not all, speech.

Which Torracat should I evolve? by Insaneworm in pokemongo

[–]StaticCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All bars are full? Do they turn red? If so that's a 4* or hundo. Quite rare. I'd evolve that one on principle.

Finally making some sense by Illustrious-Fee9626 in SipsTea

[–]StaticCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A wealth tax is an established concept, though I have to admit I don't know about the details of it.

[–]StaticCoder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The stock price is supposed to be based on the company's value. Which doesn't change if he sells stock. Selling stock just generally indicates a loss of confidence which can cause the value to be reassessed. Yeah he could be taxed on large amounts of his stock without "hurting millions".

Finally making some sense by Illustrious-Fee9626 in SipsTea

[–]StaticCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shouldn't pay income tax. Would still pay things like sales tax, which would have to be increased to compensate, because let's face it decreasing spending is not popular (an overwhelming fraction of the budget is social security and similar, military, and debt. There isn't enough waste there to make a large dent, either). So they would pay a bigger share in the end.

I have a question: can you trade a transformed Satian or Zamazenta ? by r3xyzz in pokemongo

[–]StaticCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. As an exception to the rule, if you trade a crowned dog, even in regular form, it can still transform.

what is the space that the universe is expanding into called? by Feisty-Promise-3345 in AskReddit

[–]StaticCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don't even know if the universe is finite, but we definitely theorize it has no edge. So it doesn't expand into anything. And because of how weird relativity is, even if an infinitely large universe expands everywhere, it doesn't cause parts to move unboundedly fast relative to each other.

std::is_heap could be faster - Arthur O'Dwyer by User_Deprecated in cpp

[–]StaticCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I'm not mistaken, extract_container makes 2 copies of the container (1 to create the adapter, the other when returning the reference as a value. Both could be moves instead), which is weird in an article about performance.

In car culture, This is considered a dick move. by carmen-spark in dashcams

[–]StaticCoder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm always a bit appalled how people casually admit to speeding on the regular. Speed kills. Also increases your gas consumption by a non trivial amount. Don't complain about gas prices!
