Well I reckon all terms are invented by someone, however don't conflate assault weapon, which is a vague and mercurial term, with assault rifle, which is strictly defined by organizations such as the US Army. They are similar sounding but vastly different.
If only C++ had thread support natively since 2011, then we'd have something portable we could use for the last half decade in native code applications.
In a situation like the hypothetical or the FB one, remaining silent or restricting your comments to the truth while omitting the information you're proscribed from revealing would not necessarily entail lying. A simple "I have no information to share on that topic" would probably fit that set of restrictions.
It's been approximately one year ago and I didn't do a lot of heavy shopping, I just looked for FA AR platform rifles that were for sale and transferable. Was mostly curious. The MP5 and similar weapons were much less, for one I would like to own it was in the vicinity of $14k. The AR rifles were in the vicinity of $70K and up, quite a bit up in some cases. Again, if they are now under $10K I'd like to know where.
I don't care why he decided to intentionally walk up and shoot another man he had no real connection with. I guess, like is, it depends on what it is too.
Assault weapon is pretty nebulous, depending on the date and locale both or neither of the listed weapons may be assault weapons, or even legal to own, again depending on local ordinances and so on. For instance in CA I believe ANY fully automatic capable firearm requires some pretty special dispensation or possibly a federal dealers license. A simple NFA tax stamp is not enough to satisfy state and local laws and allow a peasant to receive such a thing.
The M14 is not an assault rifle, the 308 (7.62x51) is not an intermediate power rifle round. It is IMO a highly desireable firearm and I'm pretty envious right now. An M21 is actually top of my list for acquisition after I leave the peoples republic and return to America.
A tommy gun is not an assault rifle. I can get an MP5 for around $14k last time I looked. Last time I looked any transferable AR platform assault rifle started around $72K, again, that's been maybe 10 months.
The correct tax stamp does allow a civilian to own a specific automatic weapon or other classified firearm for which such a stamp is available (such as a silencer) along with some restrictions with regard to crossing state lines and so on, and as long as local laws to not prohibit such possession or use. It's already been established that the guy I responded to did not in point of fact own an assault rifle. He seems to have what is often referred to as a "modern sporting rifle".
The 1994-2004 so called "Assault Weapons Ban" and several similar current state laws define "Assault Weapons" by a number of means including in some cases "certain specific features". That is not the same and should not be conflated with an Assault Rifle, which the US Army and other military organizations have a strict functional definition of:
"Assault Rifle By U.S. Army definition, a selective-fire rifle chambered for a cartridge of intermediate power. If applied to any semi-automatic firearm regardless of its cosmetic similarity to a true assault rifle, the term is incorrect." - https://www.nraila.org/about/g...
Not an assault rifle that I've ever seen, but if you can find a decent assault rifle for sale in the USA for under $10K I'll buy it as soon as I exit CA.

I'm pointing out that (see above, I was right) the poster does NOT own an assault rifle. Owning an assault rifle (in the USA, where the drone story is based) requires a special tax stamp and around $70,000 minimum. They are no longer legal to manufacture or import for civilian use and therefore the supply is severely restricted. I found it highly unlikely a poster here takes a rifle worth a small fortune out to the range, and as it turns out I was right. He's verified this already, above.
What range permits you to fire a fully-automatic rifle inside? I guess maybe you only use it in semi-auto mode? Or maybe you don't own an assault rifle at all, and just don't know what you're talking about despite what you may or may not own?
If it's in a relatively populated area sure, the post I replied to said "low... usage stations are self-surviving, and can pretty much be left to their own devices". If it takes 45 minutes for someone to get around to stopping by that's way too long. In places like LA where the chargers are within minutes of the police and so on it's already a fact people don't mess with the charge stations much. Maybe I have the wrong idea of what is meant by "low usage" in this context, but all the charge stations I've seen that were anywhere near civilization have a nearly permanent line waiting to use them.
I know someone who accidentally killed someone with their car - they were stone sober, but got distracted by their kid screaming in the back seat, turned around to see what happened and boom, hit someone. Do you think that person deserves the same penalty as someone who got shitfaced and ran someone over with their car?

How is this different than Amazon and California some time ago?
I'm here for ya, bro.
We could just cut out the middleman and declare murder illegal. I'm shocked it hasn't been suggested before now actually.
Fucking assault rifle is a made up term.

Depends on the implementation but for Visual Studio the async stuff uses NT thread pooling.

You should stop while you're way behind
That's actually the definition of an assault rifle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Over here, semi-auto civilian versions of military weapons are often called "assault rifles" as well. ...
Only by people who have no clue what they're talking about or who are intentionally trying to mislead others.

Mask, spray paint, socket wrench. Still not a huge barrier. Someday robocop will save the day but not soon.
.... and free solar cells to anyone with a socket wrench. Brilliant!
Call me a cynic but I don't see an asset like this being left unattended in 2017 without some issues.

Yes, I do.
