The main reason why Swift libraries are still copied into bundles is that the ABI isn't stable yet and so the Swift runtime is dependent on the version of the Swift toolchain used to build it.
If you are wondering why this is the case, I think it is because ABI stability was scheduled for Swift 3 but, unfortunately the beginning of Swift 3 coincided with the open sourcing of Swift and, in particular, Swift Evolution (the process by which new features are proposed and approved or rejected). The team got swamped by the requests for new features and IMO lost focus.
1. Hollywood actively has to discriminate based on age. If the part is "young farm boy stumbles on secret plans and gets involved in a desperate fight to overthrow the galactic empire", Mark Hamil, aged 65 is never going to be credible in the role. Similarly, are you going to cast a white man to play Othello? Lawrence Olivier and Orson Wells have both played that part on screen, but there is a reason why you never see those films anymore.
2. If you can't get a job solely because your age is written on your resumé, then age discrimination is clearly still a problem. The way to fix it is to change attitudes, not to pretend age doesn't exist.
No it wasn't. C is a high level language and always was. You can argue that it was conceived to replace assembly, but that does not mean it is assembly in any sense.
Unless it drops further, I think I would classify the high point as a spike. Bitcoin is currently trading at about the same level it was two weeks ago.
Last time Bitcoin was at $1,000, it eventually crashed to around $200, but that was precipitated by the implosion of MtGox and a couple of other high profile failures.
My parents' first computer - a Commodore PET - cost them £600. That's over £2700 in today's money. The dual floppy disk drives were a similar figure, so that's £5,000 for a system vastly less capable than a Raspberry Pi, monitor, keyboard and mouse.
My parents' second computer - a Commodore 64 - cost significantly less (about £300 I think), however, you then needed a television to go with it and TV's were not cheap in those days.
Photons have no mass but they do have momentum. You could, in theory, make an engine by pointing a torch in the opposite direction to the way you want to go and turning it on. Such an engine would have no reaction mass but would not violate the law of conservation of momentum.
There are three possibilities as I see it:
1. The device doesn't work 2. Something with momentum is being ejected but we just haven't found out what yet 3. The law of conservation of momentum is wrong.
Of the three, I would happily bet my house that it is not the third one.
It strengthens the Remain argument because it shows that of the two governing bodies: UK Parliament and EU, the EU is the one more disposed towards protecting UK citizens' rights.
Point 2: you seem to have forgotten about Jimmy Carter's four year term nestled between Nixon/Ford and Reagan. Also, your point 4 is erroneous. Trump polled fewer votes than Clinton.
The people who think Trump is a one-term president are looking at
1. He doesn't know how to run a political entity - he's probably going to screw it up
2. He has already started reneging on his promises - people predict that there will be a backlash from the supporters he is betraying
3. He'll probably lose interest before the end of the first term
I'm seeing more and more anti-Trumpers displaying annoyance that he appears to be adopting more moderate positions.
No you're not. You are seeing annoyance that so many people voted for Trump because it was obvious to the anti-Trumpers that he is a worthless lying toad and the man himself is already confirming that.
Uber makes a loss of around $2 billion annually. On the average Uber journey, the customer pays about 41% of the true cost. Effectively, your journey is part paid for by the Uber investors.
Being gay or straight is not about who you consciously choose to have sex with but who you find sexually attractive. If you are honestly saying you are sexually attracted to people of either sex, that makes you bisexual.
I agree this election is over, but that doesn't mean that you can't talk about the stupidity of the electoral college system in the hope of getting it improved some day.
Why do the states get the power to elect the president? Why don't the people have that power? If it went by popular vote, every person in the country would have exactly the same influence on the choice. How is that not better than the current situation?
Under the current rules, a Republican in California has no say in who the next president is. If the popular vote was what counted, they would have a small say, but the same as everyone else.

No it hasn't. Swift error handling looks a bit like exceptions, but it's not.

If you find optionals confusing, I suggest you do something different to programming.
I would argue two things:
1. Hollywood actively has to discriminate based on age. If the part is "young farm boy stumbles on secret plans and gets involved in a desperate fight to overthrow the galactic empire", Mark Hamil, aged 65 is never going to be credible in the role. Similarly, are you going to cast a white man to play Othello? Lawrence Olivier and Orson Wells have both played that part on screen, but there is a reason why you never see those films anymore.

Back down below 900 now.
Who said bitcoin is volatile?

I promise you that no heart and lung donor has ever woken up in the morgue.
If missing the target is considered to be "doing well".
No object that contains half a ton of lithium cells could ever be considered to be "completely green".
Absolutely not true.

Yeah, there are four quarters in a year. Uber loses money at the rate of over $2 billion and has done for several years.
It's nigh on impossible to see how they can convert that into a profit: they sarge nothing more than a taxi company with an app.

He posts a successful rebuttal to your anonymous MS-shill bullshit
The post which he allegedly rebutted doesn't say anything about Windows. So, no it was not a successful rebuttal.

Five years maximum.
No it wouldn't work. You'd be trapping people in broken down marriages due to financial pressure. That is completely inhumane.

The right to free speech does not imply a duty for other people to provide you with a platform.
