    But if you are actually passing around objects by-value by shoving them onto the call stack, you are taking it way too far.

    Nobody would be that stupid.

    I just put everything in a massive struct of doom and pass a pointer to it everywhere.

    I always thought that was reference to plumbing, but I suppose intestines are tubes too. And in one way it's more accurate.

    The headline did say *partly* solved.

    Like I partly solved Fermat's last theorem and then partly invented what would have been Fermat's last theorem if he'd lived a bit longer.

    You'd be amazed how many things I've partly done.

    It's not as much fun when you're the weirdo at school talking about a game nobody has ever heard of while they share conversation about the game they're all playing.

    It's very close to a cunt.

  14. Every type of economic activity increases rents... like, all of them.

    Apart from building more accommodation. And improving transport links.

  15. Just from a property rights perspective, its hard to argue that the owner of a property shouldn't be allowed to come to a mutual agreement with any willing party about who may sleep in a particular room tonight.

    I bet you'd find it much easier to argue if the property in question was near you and they turned it into a meth lab, knocking shop, or a frat house.

    That's SJW logic for you. Basically they can replace "and" with "because". "You said this code was shit and it was written by a lesbian midget" becomes "You said this code was shit because it was written by a lesbian midget".

    And it's no defense that you didn't know. You suspected it, and even if you manage to exceed the bounds of logic by proving they you didn't suspect it, you still treated them the same way you would have done if you *did* know.

    Shame on you!

    However, since he was already a contributor to llvm, he literally could not be discriminated against by Outreachy because he's already participating in the open source movement.

    Let me get this right. Either ...
    a) it's not discriminatory
    or
    b) he's not allowed to say it's discriminatory
    or
    c) he's in no position to judge that it's discriminatory ... because *he* isn't *personally* affected?

    Do you have any idea how retarded that sounds? Do you have any idea how retarded it is?

    P.S. What does "it is mission" mean?
