Huh? Since when? On typwriters and early word-processors it was forced to 5 columns. And even most typewriters allowed you to move the tabstops to arbitrary places.
Tabs allow the developer to customise their IDE to display the amount of indentation they desire
Most code only looks good with one particular tab setting, for example when lining up columns. This means that if you share your code with me, and I use a different tab setting, that it looks like crap, and I have to reformat the code. With spaces, it always looks the same. Also, when using diff/grep/more, you automatically get 8 column tabs.
It's for sale right now, but it's still ancient. You can get an ARM CPU for roughly the same price, with 10 times the clock, more peripherals, more choice of packages, more memory, and 32 bits instead of 8.
the police could be sued if they wasted any time at all. That would include calling the closed library
Responding to a prank call also wastes time. Somebody could be planning to rob a bank, and make a prank hostage call at a business at the other side of town to distract the police.
Not in this case, which is what I was talking about. Naturally, you can't always call back, but it doesn't hurt to explore options like these before bringing in the big guns.
They could send a few police cars on their way, and then make a phone call right away. Depending on the call, they can call back the police with only a minimum of wasted money.
If they don't answer (during regular operating hours) you at least have a confirmation that something is going on. If they answer, but they are compelled to lie to the police, I'm sure the police can figure that out. They can listen for trembling in their voice, background noises, or ask the person to say something about a book if there's an emergency going on.
Because the second you feed the output of one hash algorithm into another as input you've limited the input space from 2^${N_BITS_ON_DISK} to, in this case, 2^228.
And you would like to argue that 2^228 is not enough ?

You don't use command line tools, I presume ?
Just look at how their resume is formatted. If it's wrong, you don't even have to invite them.

and use fewer bytes
Really, who cares ?
The x86 instruction set really is a mess...
Clock for clock, a modern intel CPU is much faster than an AVR. Who cares if it doesn't look pretty, when it gets the job done ?

Actually, the 6502 only cost $6.95 in today's dollars.

A lot of things we have now were never even addressed in Star Trek. For instance, nobody in Star Trek carried around a digital camera.
the use of deadly force is authorized
An anonymous phone call should not be the basis of authorization of deadly force.

Alright assholes which one of you called the pigs
Read the article: "Police say they received the first of the perpetrator’s two calls just before 5:30 p.m."
They could send a few police cars on their way, and then make a phone call right away. Depending on the call, they can call back the police with only a minimum of wasted money.

Why would the hostage taker first call 911 to say there's a hostage situation, and then deny it when they call him back ?
Wouldn't it be smarter for the police to call back the library, and ask if there's anything going on ?
These are important topics that need to be discussed.
Not as important as issues like infrastructure maintenance, or sustainable production of water/food/energy.
Be the bigger man and go over to the other side!
You pretend that the other side doesn't focus on the same trivial issues.
She's pointing out that it's hypocrisy to advocate for one while refusing to advocate in a much worse case like Saudi Arabia.
But that's not hypocrisy. Look up the definition.
then why isn't he upset by Saudi (or most of Africa, for that matter) laws that harm gays in major ways
How do you know he is not upset ? I'm guessing he is upset, but probably figures he has no power to change it.

Still better than sniffing cat urine.
Smash it with a hammer, and throw away the pieces. If your secret key isn't worth a new phone, it's not worth going through all this trouble anyway.
In theory, your "you mama" joke approach should work
No, yo momma is too big for a hash.
Of course, but that's not cool enough.
- point-and-shoot camera usually don't have an easy way to install your "picture hashing your mom as a random number generator" system
Take SD card from regular digital camera (or phone), stick it in an off-line linux laptop, and run sha256sum. No programming required.
