There is a popular belief in the UK, promoted by bloke-down-the-pub legal experts, in 'legal tender', being a certain upper limit to the amount of small change a shopkeeper is obliged to accept for a purchase.
Your use of the term 'legal tender' and example of somebody paying a shopkeeper with 500 1p pieces suggested that you shared this misconception. I now stand corrected.
Since you are a small team rather than the entire open source community, don't your own conclusions imply that you are likely to be detecting only a small fraction of the defects, invalidating the study?
Nothing in the article or the submission is critical of your proposed moral war or your distinguished president. The knee-jerk shouting down of dissenting voices is not warranted here. However, your patriotism has been noted. You make Baby Jesus proud.
Trouble is, they come back down again, negating the effect. Better to get some large population to all face the same way, then fart. Muslims would be ideal. Issue them with cigarette lighters for a larger deflection.
Each Simone spacecraft will have instruments designed to examine the physical and chemical make-up of its target asteroid.
It is hoped the missions will help scientists predict the risk posed by asteroids and develop effective strategies for dealing with different types of object.
What properties, other than mass and trajectory, are of interest? It's not like they're going to find harmless ones made out of rubber or whatever.
I take it you mean STL strings? Apart from those, I cannot imagine what you mean by standard C++ strings.
I suppose he means std::string as defined in the C++ Standard ISO/IEC 14882:1998
If that is what you mean, I have to point out that STL strings are no more 'standard' than the null terminated variety.
NUL-terminated strings are also Standard C++
From the review I would hazard a guess that the book makes no reference to the Standard Template Library
Neither does the standard. STL has been assimilated.

I've been hearing a lot about the 30 seconds of telemetry that was too weak for the computers to display during the shuttle break-up but that is now being analyzed from backups. Does anybody have any more information on what this data?
But you have more opportunity to procreate if you don't get eaten.
Not quite. What matters is that you don't get killed. Subsequently being eaten or not is irrelevant. There is no reproductive advantage in tasting nasty, except when nasty tasting individuals share some additional feature which allows predators to distinguish them from tasty individuals. But this just means that there is an advantage in looking like you taste nasty, not in tasting nasty per se.
a good way to foil predators was to taste bad. This surely disproves Darwin, because surely every creature would have evolved to taste bad by now *grin*
There is no selection pressure which favours tasting bad.

Moreover, your original code correctly terminated the string - the 'improved' version does not.
Even when strncpy is used correctly, it's almost always better to use strncat instead. Your reviewers are jokers. I sympathize.
I'm not trolling.

I'm saying that the 500 x 1p case has nothing to do with legal tender either
also don't "get" the concept of "Legal Tender".
Never forget the shop keepers perfectly legal right to tell you to "F*** Off".
This has nothing to do with legal tender, but with the distinction between 'invitation to treat' and 'offer'

Most content is already indirectly funded by people's employers.
apparently due to the forces acting on it if it did "fall" or break it would go flying off into space instead of collapsing on earth
This would be worth it just for the look on the Al Queda pilots' faces.

No, the US is planning to create its own lunar surface in the Middle East
What are we supposed to call it? I'm happy to talk about 'your fucking shuttle' or 'your fucking towers', but I tend to get modded down when I do.
'The Columbia Tragedy' sounds like your fucking high school massacre. I suppose it would be '2/1' in the post-towers system of disaster nomenclature.
This was boring the first time I read it on Usenet on 2 Feb.
did anyone else misread "Science: European Life In Doubt"?
Sigh. From now on, could only people who didn't read it as 'European' post to tell us about it?
You did stay in bed. America joined the war after Pearl Harbour, remember.
