Just curious: how do you feel about post Had&Robert Radiolab?
Five to Four : "a podcast about how much the Supreme Court sucks" with Peter from If Books Could Kill which got quite a few mentions
Embedded.fm : best tech podcast I know, nominally about embedded programming, but also a lot of peripheral topics, origami comes to mind. Few tech podcasts manage to discuss deeply technical issues in an interesting manner.
Conversations with Tyler: general interest podcast with long conversations with a diverse cast of sometimes very high profile guests. Just came across it a couple of days ago and was surprised I never heard of it. Tyler has had folks like Daniel Kahnemann, Noam Chomsky, Neil Stephenson but also has great lesser known people. A recent podcast was about the history of Chinese cuisine...
Doesn't that argument apply to any instance of ignoring intellectual property. Books, records and movies will also be cheaper in countries that let companies do what they want. Medicine would be more accessible, ignoring patients will greatly accelerate innovation in countries where permitted...
... or they sue you for using their API ... or doing something similarly impertinent.
:P
For some reason, I wouldn't touch "free" from Oracle with a barge pole...
Sure. So? If the compiler feels it's more efficient not to inline, who am I to judge? As far as I know there's nothing keeping the compiler from recognizing repetitive code generated by macros and factoring out into a single assembly routine...
I don't feel it's missing much feature-wise. It could use some polish in the HMI department, though. Not for me personally, but I can imaging the Windows NT theme could be a bit off-putting for the average user.
whether they have enough water for 3+ days
I'm sure they have a couple of cases of Fiji Water in there. Even if not, three days without water shouldn't kill someone who passes a physical I'm sure everyone on board had to take ...
Sunk subs can also be an environmental hazard.
Just out of curiosity... how do you figure that a tiny sunken submersible would become a hazard, much less an environmental one?
I think it depends, trivial min() and max() style functions are very common and considered acceptable, though I guess you could have been using inline for the last two decades...
The only time I got any serious usage out of preproc functions was writing a driver for an AT-command set cellular modem which involved writing a ton of repetitive code for each AT command.
I think I would prefer this sort of content in wrtten form though, cause I do it so seldom, I always need to look up syntactic specials like 'stringizing' where I even tend to forget the names of the concepts :)
