Null±1 is really no different than null itself. It's a special value that's not a memory location. And a tag labeled "end" doesn't make sense. There would be no good way to differentiate the "end" tag from real data.
None. Nulls are perfectly elegant for representing an empty queue, the start/end of a queue, a pointer that's declared but not yet used, etc. Surely there's a graceful way to handle the dereferencing of a null pointer, instead of eliminating them.
And you can ask someone who works with microwave communication what the known dangers are. If the EM spectrum is arranged in order of danger, then IR would be more dangerous than microwave, not less.
Al Awlaki was killed in Yemen, after the Yemeni government ordered him captured dead or alive, right? You need a better example than this for bashing the US.
In general, it doesn't matter. I posted as AC for a while when I was new. But if you're going to go off on someone for not giving away more free stuff, maybe you should be held accountable for your words. When I make a comment like that I usually get called out on it.
But anyway, this is just a friendly banter. I'm not upset.
Now, IPv6 doesn't necessarily preclude this. Just don't forget that your $89 router is a firewall, and when it gets upgraded to IPv6 it had better still be a firewall.
NAT itself may not do much for security, but a properly-designed NAT router does. If an external machine requests to talk to an internal machine, it's going get denied, because the router knows without a doubt that the external machine is on the external interface, and that the internal IP address is in fact internal.
When you have any number of machines behind a router, and can't guarantee that all of them have a software firewall turned on, using a NAT router to protect the network makes imminent sense. Unless I'm wrong somehow and every home network in the world is ripe for attack.
It may be a great FS, but now that Linux has achieved good NTFS compatibility, this is a step backwards 2 or 3 years at least. Not to mention that NTFS works fine, and there's no point in deprecating anything.
I agree that legacy technology should not be forgotten, because newer is not always better. But I have to believe that the voting machines would be secure and reliable if they had been designed correctly, and that there are a number of human beings on the planet capable of getting it done today.
Yes, but putting greed aside, a company should be smarter than you and me because they have more resources. I don't blame the government for listening to companies. But with so many companies lobbying on our behalf, we may need to report to the companies if we want to change the vote.
Absolutely. With Corporate America supporting SOPA by a vote of 158 to 87, I wouldn't blame Congress for passing it. Who's right, Corporate America, or you and I? I don't know, but I know who has more lobbying power, and it ain't me.

We have a server at our office running a PCAnywhere host, but it's on a custom port that's normally closed at the firewall.

So what better type is there

How would you know when you're at the end of the stream? Or, what happens when it's empty??
I'm not a physicist, and there isn't complete agreement on this issue anyway, but I'm pointing to these:

Sure, but while some kinds of engineering tricorders might be possible today, medicine is the killer app.
Obviously. But you're missing some rather important libraries.
EM radiation can give you cancer too. It's all a question of dosage.

There's a difference. I'm all for free speech, but blatant racial/ethnic slurs shouldn't be tolerated.
The best I've seen, in my apartment building, is "CrappyApartment".

Or, your definition of the word "name" is too tight.
At least I'm posting under my name.
Intel are
Intel = singular
are = plural

Not exactly. CD's have many visible advantages over cassettes.

Or just don't buy an ARM device from Microsoft.
Yes, this. When you have 3 projects going on at once...

That's a stupid argument. As much as someone might like their job, I guarantee they like buying food and having a bed to sleep in more.
