    Yeah, if that;s the only thing you drink. I drink diet soda, regular soda, various beverages with tea and/or protein/vitamins in it.

    The thing is when do side effects happen? In order to ensure they do not disturb intended effects it would make sense to make sure they happened after all others.

    I would have expected the variable increment to take place after the expression is evaluated for a result.

    If we create a new semantical system in whic we call a tail a leg, then within the confines of that system, a tail is a leg.

    They call it the United States of America, not the United People of America.

    None of those countries have America in the long form version of their names. While U.S. is also popular, America is not uncommon for the nation itsel.

    No, but it is shorthand for"The United States of America" which is.

  15. Well, it's quantum. on Y Combinator-Funded Startup To Do Quantum Computing -- Only Better (bizjournals.com) · · Score: 1

    Some people's misunderstanding of "quantum" results in Schrodinger's indeterminacy principle being thtown into the mix resulting in a condition where a company must simultaneously be doing quantum computing right and wrong. Also, descriptions of quantum computing fail to acknowledge the presence of logic gates. I haven't read this article yet to determine if it follows the pattern though.

    Taking game software alone, you have lots of space, yet most save mechanisms arbitrarily restrict the number of saves? And wider scope, We've all lost copious amounts of web form data. Microsoft has a memory limitation called a desktop heap that the recommended and default size on modern machines is absurdly small and results in data loss. For that matter, Windows Updaye is oblivious to what is happening on the machine and has no regard for data preservation.

    Privacy is overrated. If people had to defend themselves from the attacks they instead rely on privacy to protect them from, they wouldn't be so quick to attack.
