Unless you're in the right, and want to prevent other bottom feeders from trying the same sort of tactics. In that case, you don't throw money at the problem, you throw lots and lots of lawyers.
GM is using essentially the same 3.8L pushrod V6 that they were using in the 70's
Are you sure? ISTR that the mid-70's GM V6 engines were crap, because they essentially took a V8 and hacked off two cylinders... without changing the timing (so that they went fire-fire-fire-pause). I had a '78 Chevy Monza V6 (only thing I could afford at the time), and it vibrated so bad that I wound up replacing the engine mounts. I've driven newer GM V6's and they're a hell of a lot smoother.
Yes, except in the case of derived classes -- the writer of the derived class has to explicitly write a dtor to ensure the parent class dtor is called.
Huh? If the parent declares a virtual dtor, the proper destructor sequence will always be called, regardless of destruction method. If the child isn't destroyed thorugh a base class pointer, but dies from either a delete pChild or by going out of scope, you don't even need that. The compiler will ensure that the base class dtor gets called.
What's the diff? 'begin' is a keyword in Pascal. '{' is a "keyword" in C or C++. It's all lexical scanning. By the time the parser gets it, there's no longer a string, but a single token indicating "BLOCKBEGIN".
It's much more typesafe than C++, though Ada generics are less powerful than C++ templates, since they must be explicitly instantiated; i.e. the compiler won't find the best match.
In other words, if you have a generic swap routine, you must declare each particular version
e.g. procedure SWAP(x : in out integer, y: in out integer) is new GENERIC_SWAP(integer);
However, given that Ada (83 and 95) was designed for mission critical "failure is not an option" apps, this tends to lead to less unexpected behavior (virtual functors anyone?).
I'd say that part of the problem with math (or maths, for you Brits:-P) is that the very basics require rote memorization.
Let's face it, you can't do a damn thing until you can do the basic four functions (add, subtract, multiply, and divide). And unless you've memorized the multiplication tables (at least up to 9, preferably higher), you're going to be stuck.
Since the very *FIRST* thing you need to learn is deadly dull, you're turned off to the rest, even though it's interesting, and (depending on how it's taught) fun.
A long long time ago Darl can still remember When Unix(tm) used to make him smile... And he knew that in a few weeks That he would sue those Linux(tm) geeks And maybe prop the stock up for a while... But IBM just wouldn't shiver The AIX code they wouldn't deliver Bad news on the newsrack BayStar wants their cash back I don't remember getting sad When I heard how their stock crashed so bad But I was laughing and oh so glad The Day The SCO Group Died...
Got a 1-5 service window. Took off work at 12:30. Cable guy literally showed up at 4:59. However, he did wind up working up on the pole (cable to my house had bad connectors).
I thought it was going to the starving artists to compensate for those Evil Content Pirates(tm)... Oops, wrong evil monopoly!

Yes.

No... he means that the "activation" is a theft deterrent.
Hear, hear.
My wife drives a '94 Aerostar. Big, ugly, slow, underpowered a bit (wimpiest 3.0L V6 I've ever seen). It has exactly one saving grace.
It's paid for.
Write a quick and dirty keyword translater in FLEX and then run the results though gindent (or your favorite beautifier).
It wasn't "Good Night, Irene", it was "I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen". By Lt. Kevin Riley. In the episode, "The Naked Time".

Ada95 cures most of the problems that Ada83 had.

I suppose you will need virus protection when using VD?
There are such "zones". In the US, they are called "States".

Thanks. I appreciate the props.
A long long time ago
Darl can still remember
When Unix(tm) used to make him smile...
And he knew that in a few weeks
That he would sue those Linux(tm) geeks
And maybe prop the stock up for a while...
But IBM just wouldn't shiver
The AIX code they wouldn't deliver
Bad news on the newsrack
BayStar wants their cash back
I don't remember getting sad
When I heard how their stock crashed so bad
But I was laughing and oh so glad
The Day The SCO Group Died...
So we were singing
Bye, bye, Mr. Darl McBride...
OK. Now I know you're a troll...
It's a line of dialog from the movie, "Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back".
I can't decide if you're a troll or not, but what the hell...
Lando turns Han Solo over to Vader in Bespin. Then complains that what Vader does wasn't part of their deal.
Vader's reply: "I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further."
When you double the frequency, it's the same note - just one octave higher.
i.e. if 60Hz is Bb, so is 120, 240, 480, etc....
That's trademark, not copyright.
Actually happened to me.
Got a 1-5 service window. Took off work at 12:30. Cable guy literally showed up at 4:59. However, he did wind up working up on the pole (cable to my house had bad connectors).
Isn't that the closing credits of "The Man Show"?
Personally I only watch Comedy Central, so I hope it passes and passes fast.
You mean the SNL Rerun Channel?
For far too long have the mighty blues been carrying the lackluster greens and yellows.
What are you talking about? The green M&Ms are far superior to your puny blue ones.
Next on the Agenda: Yuh-Gi-Oh Cards!
I belive that "Yuh-Gi-Oh" is Japanese for "Those dumb Americans STILL will buy anything!"
If your deductions outnumber your profits... you don't pay taxes, but you're also losing money as a business.
Perhaps you should explain this to Microsoft, GM, GE, and others...
