If everyone uses the same clock, they are on the same page about what time is being proposed immediately and can respond immediately. People who have that "problem" are actually using a reference time, and that is GMT. For that you do not need a worldwide unified time.
It is convenient to know that the sun rises around 6:00 and sets around 18:00 and is at its zenith is around 12:00.
For people who actually have to deal with other people in other timezones it is rather easy... unfortunately there is no "contacts" App that shows the local time of your contacts. That would be helpful.
Java's fairly notorious for changes that break things. Actually no...
I use Java since 20 years and never had that problem. However there are APIs or methods in classes that get "deprecated", but they are kept around for years.
The internet was built around two basic principles: links are free and you can upload everything and sort out the mess later. You are mixing up the internet with the "world wide web". No worries, it is common mistake...
The problem with the EU parliament basically is that everyone who is not smart enough to be allowed to run for a local government (regional, like a City or a federal state), not influencing enough to run for a country parliament (France, Germany etc.) but pestering enough is put on the list for the EU elections. Basically 90% of all people in the EU parliament are failed wanna be parlimentarians for regional or country parliaments. Usually you would assume, you have a strict ladder of competence, city civilian servant first, then regional parliament, then federal state parliament, then state parliament then EU parliament.
Fact is: in the EU parliament only idiots end up... because no one want them on the voting lists for the parliaments below.
Probably you don't know how a democracy works. So I explain it to you. People vote for "members of the parliament". The parliament decides about issues... for the people.
Got it?
Oh, I'm against the new EU laws, but I at least know hoe a democracy in our times works.
I'm just sick and tired of people blaming Christians for everything that is wrong with the world when they are clearly not. But they are. WWI... Christians fighting Christians with a few Turks involved. WWII Christians fighting Christians with a few Japanese involved. Half of the world is "Communist"... done by white men, ex/former Christians. South America in disarray, done by General Food Corporation and its american Christian lackeys. Africa a continent still in mediocre state, done by the colonial forces from all over Christianity. Islam... would not exist without the Christians. Mohamed was nor a prophet... he was a politician. He saw Christians prosper, and around him all tribes followed their own individual pagan religions (some more established like greek/roman or phoenician or egyptian pantheon), so he artificially crafted Islam and sold it to his peers and conquered the tribes around him. China is "communist", too. Between the late 1800ds and WWII its coastline and easy to access land boarders, like Vietnam/China where occupied by "colonial forces" from about ten countries: british, german, french, belgic, japanese, american, russian... and so on. All had a "city" conquered and made a province around it to "trade" or exploit or simply run deeper into the country and raid it (France in Indochine, raiding in China e.g.) ah.... my mistake, Japan was not Christian... Africa, ever looked on a map? How does it come that countries have straight lines as borders? Oh... one side was occupied/colonized by christian country A and the other side by christian country B and when WWI forced them to retreat, or WWII or the Indian independency swabbed over to Africa the parties A and B retreated but left the border on paper like it is. Now they still fight over it. In west Africa they have a currency like the Euro. But the countries don't want it. The currency is managed by a French/UK bank consortium (Christians... well, on paper). When a president tries to get his country out of the currency union MI6 or some french secret service kills him.
Basically everything on the planet is caused by christians. No idea if it has anything to do with their religion, or if it is simple a coincident that the white race mostly are christians.
Christians and Muslims are the only two religions on the planet that try to either proselytize or force their believes on the conquered ones. Go figure: there never was a hindu or buddhist or nordic or a greek or a roman invasion forcing their gods/believes on the conquered/colonized ones. Or did you ever hear about african invaders brining their gods and forcing anyone to believe in them?
Everything that is wrong on this planet is caused by christians or their sister religion islam... and both religions don't grasp that they believe in the same god and are basically the same thing.
To my surprise I have found that I tend to know more about Christian holy texts and the history of Christianity than the average Christian seems to do which is saying something because I don't really remember all that much from reading the bible. Should not be a surprise, but I agree with the rest of your post, too.
*jar files are *zip files. And a maven repository usually holds the sources.'zip' and the classes.'zip' aka jar files.
If run into problems as one for help who has more clue than you. While maven is a pain in the ass, not being able to build a code-jar-file from the sources is not one of its problems.
Half life is a completely overrated argument on/. (or in america?) The questions are: * does it get into the body? * where does it accumulate? * what particles are emitted? * what energy do those particles have? * is it harmful already if the emissions come from the outside (alpha/beta versus gamma) or only from inside the body * is it an element that body is hungry for, like Cs? * and in case it is released into the environment are there biologic path's by which they get accumulated, e.g. Cs again, you simply do not want to eat mushrooms around Chernobyl, regardless that the accident was 30 years go, it is still _forbidden_ to gather mushrooms in _south Germany_ because they are to contaminated with unhealthy levels of Cs
Plutonium is the most poisonous - as in poison - element on the planet. On top of that it has the super ugly tendency to wander into your bone marrow... IIRC the deadly dose for a human over 3 years is 40mg.
Plus even short-lived isotopes decay to other radioisotopes. Either Cs or Sr, or a similar one, decays into a isotope that has only a half life of a few minutes...
400mg Uranium dissolved in your body in various forms of uranium oxygenes you likely survive. Plutonium... not so much. You are an idiot. Looking at the colour of your dot behind your/. ID, I pointed that out already often enough.
Actually there is no good reason not to count comments. Just because they are not compiled to code is not a good reason.
/** * param input - an unsigned integer used to compute the square from */ long fac(long input) {//.... bla }
The error is in the comment, why is it not treated similar as line of code? I however agree that long comment headers containing the commit log of the last 15 years are not necessarily code/LOCs:D
don't count lines with only opening or closing paranthesis Same misconception.
// corner case, many code conventions forbid this if (somethingIsTrue())
doSomething();// case #1 if (somethingElseIsTrue()) {
doSomethingElse(); }// case #2 if (somethingIsFreakedUp()) {
fixItIfYouCan(); }
Case #1 and #2 should be treated as the same amount of LOC. Basically you count paras, braces, comma and semicolon and ignore new lines (unless inside of comments). That of course is only true for languages like C where meaningful lines are terminated by a ; and/or a }
Of course that means that a function call like this:
myCall(1, 2, "string");
will be counted just like this:
myCall
(
1,
2,
"string")
;
Which is 5 lines, because you have 5 places where you can make an error, well, you could skip the paras perhaps and only count comma and semicolon. As the paras are required syntax, but then you don't count the function name as a LOC. Hm, I think we used to either not count the closing or opening para, not sure.
The point is: 1) func(); - that is one line 2) anotherFunc(param); - that is two lines// does not fit into my definition above, yes 3) moreFuncs(paramOne, paramTwo); - that is three lines// function name can be wrong, param one can be wrong, param two can be wrong
The Java repositories used by ant, maven, and gradle tend to have unknown binaries and unknown provenance, with no reliable way to evactly recreate the published jar files. That is nonsense. First of all the source code comes from a source code control system, secondly if you use maven/gradle then the jar repository usually always contains a code.jar and a source.jar (and the 'make file' to make one from the other).
Bottom line you learn coding by coding a lot. Making mistakes realizing it, reflecting about it and improving yourself.
You can not simply "teach" how not to make mistakes. Sure, you can teach concepts, problem cases, defensive strategies, tests etc. But bottom line the only way to learn is to make mistakes and learn from them.
This is not true in C++ or FORTRAN or the others. Yes, it is. On the other hand, modern compilers make so much behind the scene that you *on modern hardware* hardly can say what is going on without actually looking at the assembly code. (Register renaming, operation reordering, parallel speculative execution etc.)
I find it extremely unlikely that "the code got changed", and now I am starting to question your entire description of the incident. What flight number was this? When did it occur? There seems to be no record of it. As far as I know the code got changed. The incident is probably 15 - 20 years back, happened either in Germany or in Poland, I only remember the pilot was German (probably the airline, too).

It was Warsaw, Poland.
