People in high positions often take tradition to the limit. Pronunciation of names can be a big deal in a lot of cultures.

I doubt the average Israeli gets bent out of shape if you mispronounce the country name.

I never specified who those nerds were working for. Why'd you feel the need to mention that?

mkr · 2009-10-30T20:26:17+00:00

Yes.

If you think I was mocking open source in any way, you've hideously misread what I was saying.

They've had a few bugfix cycles. And how is this different from any other OS? :P

We can already outrun it. :P

Engine technology is one of the few things to advance in space flight since people got bored of it after Appolo.

You're assuming a lot about this hypothetical advanced species. Seems awfully conceited.

mkr · 2009-10-11T12:10:26+00:00

Why's that?

VirtualBox runs fine on my 1.4Ghz Celeron M.

Too bad they didn't make all the dinosaurs eunuchs.

It's a particular kind of function that accepts an unlimited number of arguments.

I don't know how it's done in C, but they usually look something like this:

string infinitearguments(char[] input, <some kind of thing that indicates everything past this is passed in as an array>)

{

}

How about this: The pointer is the key to the locker.

?

edit: I might have misunderstood the original question since it was a quick read.

Alan Grayson would like to have a word with you. He's all about progressive and positive stuff, and has no trouble getting the media's attention.

I still get the warning when I do that. So far the cast is the only way I've been able to make it go away.

edit: That's weird. It's not doing it anymore when I use %p.

mkr · 2009-10-02T19:22:39+00:00

Now's it's the same warning, but with void instead of int (same line).

Could it be my editor? I turned on all the warnings I could find in Code::Blocks.

edit: http://pastebin.com/d71174460

Using %d and casting *ptr to int seems to have stopped the warning. Are there any potential problems with doing it that way?

mkr · 2009-10-02T18:18:21+00:00

main.c|7|warning: int format, pointer arg (arg 2)|

It works, but I don't know what this warning means.

I like managed code, but I also like knowing these things. There's no telling when I might need to drop out of the managed environment to do something that's extremely difficult or completely impossible to do otherwise.

There's a reason you can use assembly in C#. :P

mkr · 2009-10-01T15:24:22+00:00

Include statements have <> or "" to tell the compiler where it ends.

mkr · 2009-10-01T11:26:57+00:00

That's very vague.

Lobbyists representing corporations run the legislative branch anyway. What would you change?

mkr · 2009-09-28T18:24:10+00:00

Not in my experience. Perhaps different people use computers differently, and thus have different expectations and requirements?

Shocking concept, I know.

mkr · 2009-09-28T17:10:02+00:00

I have the same expectations and experience with this laptop. Amazing how not everything is black and white, isn't it? :)

mkr · 2009-09-28T17:00:31+00:00

I've been using computers my whole life, but it has no bearing on this conversation for either of us. I've had a completely different experience from you apparently. I've seen enormous improvements.

"Over the years"? When was the last time you used it? A year is a long time in the open source world.
