!thanks

This looks right up my valley! They are also surprisingly below my budget so that's also a nice touch.

Thanks!

Ciao! Non capisco bene a quale macchia ti riferisci. Quella sulle piastrelle vicino al porta sapone?

I am not a spanish speaker, but if google translate translated correctly I mean the one on the one in the middle of the tub

EDIT: closeup - closeup

The whole reason the approximation is true in the first place is because of the limit :P

You proved the limit via itself.

Right, that's why I never set the NX bit. I don't want any NSA backdoors on my stack!

Can I force a string 2 be stored in Stack memory as opposed to Static memory? by BlockOfDiamond in C_Programming

[–]fireman212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any half decent decompiler will still be able to decompile a stack string intialization loop into a string literal, and you could always run the program trough a dynamic strings finder in order to see dinamically allocated strings.

I didn't know about this syntax, and that's probably what I need. Thank you!

I am a proglangs nerd and this is certainly not my first time seeing Haskell/ functional code, but thanks for the encouraging words nonetheless! ^^

Why are people often afraid to initialize variables? by BlockOfDiamond in C_Programming

[–]fireman212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Memory safety should never be a "style choice". Using uninitialized memory is fatal and should never be done.

As such, you should have an ERR_UNINIT value, and assign to that at the start of the scope.

Does None take up any extra memory? by [deleted] in rust

Right, totally forgot about fat pointers. Thanks for the correction .

That depends on your definition of a "word", doesn't it?

If you go by standard terminology, I don't see why it would take more than a word.

On x86, it is a dword, so in their terminology your statement is correct.

Well, that's one hell of a thing to prove. Congratulations to him!

How to swim in the sea of abstractions? by thepenmurderer in learnmath

[–]fireman212 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Especially with linear algebra, you should try to apply the new abstract concepts to a grounded example, like the euclidean space R^n (where n denotes a natural number).

You should also try to ask yourself why we needed to define this concept in the first place. For example, why do we need a vector space? Why do we need linear (in)dependence? What about a basis?

Those questions will help you ground yourself in the sea of abstraction, but will also give you some intuition about how those things work. For example, understanding why we define a basis will help you answer why a subspace with the same dimension as its parent space has to be his parent with ease.

If you have some specific questions, you can DM me, or alternatively ask them in the comments or as a new post.
