You said "look at the extra function calls". He said "those function calls will be compiled away". You said "yeah, but look at that extra pointer assignement". Paraphrased, of course. Just thought I'd point out the shifting argument.
There is overhead to auto_ptr; In the statement pfoo->do_Stuff(), the -> is an overloaded operator, requiring a function call.
-> is an overloaded operator, but as the function definition is trivial and it is declared inline, the function call will be compiled out in an optimized build yielding code that is no more expensive than the pointer indirection. The same applies to the destructor: true it's a function call, but in practice, std::auto_ptr::~auto_ptr () will simply be replaced by "delete Foo;" in an optimized build.
As you set it up, you should have sketched a gui wizard or dialogs that would have set the options you though were right. Extra credit for implementing it, sending it to an existing http conf gui project, or helping one of the same with suggestions.:)
Look, guy, I'm not disagreeing with your clear channel ammendment binding statment. Say it as many times as you want, it doesn't change what the the Stern issue is all about. The sky is blue. The SKY is BLUE!!! I'll say it one more time - they sky is BlU-U-U-EEE!. Fear my argumentive prowess!
The juice of this issue (and the award) appears to be about the FCC being out of control (possible constitutional problems) and Clear Channel bowing to them (possible moral/ethical problems, but primarily a mere cog in this (alleged) mechanism for government censorship (that being a government agency with unchecked, unlimited, and uncontestable administrative power)).
I should know better than to argue with somebody with a sig like yours. Good day. You may now return to your regurarly scheduled simpleton view of the world.
I'm just a little tired of seeing posts in this discussion that raise the point that since Clear Channel is a private company, they are not bound by the first ammendment.
That point is a red herring, IMO. If I see someone raise it, I can only assume they are uninformed or being willfully or rhetorically obtuse. Hence my sarcastic comment.
Look, Stern and supporters claim that the FCC is effectively censoring speech throught excessive fines. They further claim that there is no checks and balances on the FCC, that the process for fighting them has been made economically prohibitive and perhaps even impossible. They also claim that because the rights to use the airwaves come in the form of government granted monopolies, higher standards should be required for the stewards of those airwaves.
I don't care if you agree with those points or not; but don't ignore them for the easy target seems ignorant or worse.
I find Stern annoying, too, but that also has fuck-all to do with the issue.
Agreed, Smallville is utter crap. If you think it's good, concentrate on the soundtrack for one episode. The soundtrack, like much of the plot, is lifted straight from daytime soap opera television.
Anything by The The, e.g. Naked Self, or Mind Bomb, or Soul Mining, just a collection of songs perhaps, but they are typically well themed and transitioned, IMO
Early Modest Mouse or any Arab Strap - very themey
Recoil - BLood Lines or Unsound Methods
Just a random few, read some reviews first, gotta run.
Wow, I guess people didn't have babies before the advent of the cell phone. I don't know how people dealt with all the emergencies they NEED to deal with before cell phones. I rember back in the eighties, before cell phones, I would just sit by my phone all day, every day and not move. Because, holy shit, what if there was some emergency? HOW Would theey get a hold of me?!!!???!
Sure, just like opening your mouth and farting doesn't make one a critic? Which line did I copy from Shrek? It's always nice is to know the source of your plagarism, so you're going to need to help me out a little here.
Just because code is copyrighted, doesn't mean one isn't allowed to possess it or show it to others. These actions might have been expressly allowed by interviewee's former employer, or could possibly be covered under copyright fair use if not expressly prohibited by previous employer's NDA, contracts, etc.
In short, if I ever meet that overpaid consultant type, I'll punch him in the throat.
Yes, there is something strange with that. "April fool' day in 2104" can be written as 4012104. Note firstly that this is a symmetric date. Also note that digits add up to the tripplet (3 numbers) 525, which add up to (or directly) 12, which adds to 3. So we have 2 occurrences of 3 and 2 occurrences of 5. We all know that the Illuminati mark their works with symmetry and the special Illuminati numbers 3 and 5.
Clearly, we can conclude that Google has been infiltrated all the way to the upper levels with Masonic/Illuminati players.
Very astute of you to notice these weird connections, p0rnking.
Imagine the following scenario:You're given a calfskin wallet for your birthday. What do you do?

Not for standard compliant C++, bucko.
Aliens from another planet flying in saucer shaped space craft over phoenix. No more UFOs, we know they're little green men.

Gore isn't a big deal. Knowing you are watching the premature deaths of real people is. We're desensitized to the first, not to the second.

Also, don't knock, cut-paste-modify. Mother nature has been doing that for billions of years with pretty interesting results. ha ha ha.
Thank you, I'll be here all week.

With that kind of mileage, you should be training for a full marathon.
Wow! Those are big potholes. I'm going to Michigan this summer for a reunion, and I'm going to go hunting for lost 18-wheelers!!!
Why should I care what a wanker says about anything other than wanking?

Ahh, the classic "security through obscurity" argument.
No sir.
I hereby nominate you for the most-useless-use-of-a-footnote award.
