You are not welcome to make that choice for others.
I don't think you understand how government works. Governments do exactly that every day: they make choices for people that they themselves wouldn't make, and don't want.
In other words, if the government agrees with me, then that choice will be made for others.
That's a horrible example. If Einstein had stayed in Germany, he would have been tortured or killed. Any economic gains from his work in America would have been completely lost. It was better for all the world, including Germany, that Einstein left Germany. If you're going to give a historical example, at least choose one that makes sense.
............Right......so the old, rich, selfish act is fresh and new? Because you're sounding as stale and selfish as morning toast right now. Some people actually try to make the world a better place. Are you one of them?
It has happened. There are plenty of such libraries.
Your real question, I think, is why don't more people use those libraries (or write their own)? I don't know the answer to that, but it's why I commented, so more people can know the way (or a way).
Oh, that's the worst you can think of? What about the people who are literally slaves, living their lives carrying heavy loads in a brick kiln? What about them?
tbh if you did roll your own encryption instead of relying on openssl, there's a reasonable chance your code would end up being more secure. Your chances of success entirely depends on how good you are at programming.
I know more languages than you have years in your life, mate. I don't care if there are a "constant string of people telling me" anything. At a certain point, you have enough experience to make your own judgements.
If I have a choice of helping people in extreme poverty, while giving a salary reduction to people who are making greater than $100k, then I will impose that choice on others, and I won't feel guilty about it.
If anyone is wondering what the Mozilla Paris office looks like, here it is. I can't comment on what the costs of such an office would be. Maybe not much.
You explained how it works. I know how it works, my point was that it's a bad idea. Java/Swing isn't particularly great, either.
Maybe Vaadin is good, I don't know.
And if you use exceptions correctly. And make sure not to use dangerous features. And be careful about operator overloading. Nah, C++ isn't safer than C, it has all the dangers of C plus some more. If you use a good string library and a good buffer library, than most of the dangers of C are gone.

In other words, "please someone else please do lots of hard but pointless work for me so that I may pretend to be productive [postgresql.org]."
It's actually amazing to me how maturely and respectfully the Postgresql guys responded to that. They are truly a mellow bunch.

Hey, there's a reason it's called Slacker News.
The robin hood act is getting a bit old.

With a decent string library and buffer library, the vast majority of security bugs in C are easily fixed.

Try getting a hiring manager to believe that.
If you have numbers that show that, it would be interesting, but it isn't intuitively obvious.
I know more languages than you have years in your life, mate. I don't care if there are a "constant string of people telling me" anything. At a certain point, you have enough experience to make your own judgements.
Apparently you haven't made it there yet.

I have no idea what you are trying to say.
HTML confuses you? REally? :/ ?
You can. And if you can't, the question is whether you'd be happy to if you could.
I'm happy to take a lower salary if it helps people out in the slums of India.

All the same, he should be on the right side of history, instead of the wrong side.
You can add to your equation: amortized cost of when drones/packages drop from the sky and break people or things.

Ever tried declaring an array of functions?
Yeah but it turned out to not be a good idea, and not because of the syntax.
in my keyboard is no EOF key i could hit accidentially
Try using redirect from a file.
but C++'s bazooka has compiler-enforced safety if you bother to RTFM and follow the best practices.
Lies. There's no such thing as C++ best practices. There's a subset of C++ that your team chose to you. And I seriously doubt you've read the manual.
