Are we just going to forget that the Switzerland is the place where capitalists many(in my opinion or some if you want) keep their money.

Nice game I played a few rounds

First it is not manipulation please read the terms of service and user consent on this issue. Second this is standard practice A/B testing is universal and companies do a holdout experiment all the time it is also called Withholding test.

why don't you criticize the arguments his making instead of the person, he is basically saying hire people with autonomy not people who need motivation.

the idea i am criticizing is, as explained, "motivation" is something which can be managed and throwing more money at engineers is not a universal motivation.

please if you consider taking my idea of a novel provide me an email let me email you.

All I know is that RUST will lose skill issue and C will win

we shall C the resolve of the RUST maintainers they are working on borrowed time ....

What will happen when the greed of defense companies outweighs the needs of the country for defense? can the defense companies continue overcharging the US government and being drunk on their profits lag behind and lagging behind lobby for the requirements of the US military to be out of date(which is already happening as we see requirements persist that still look like they are from the 1970s in an era where low cost drones, and cheap loitering munitions do not exist, era only way to track a fighter jet is long range radar that distributed camera and ir camera tracking does not exist that fighter jets have true stealth.)and once that lobby works they become over budget and late on delivering on those requirements. This thinking that the defense companies can slumber and we will still be ok is erroneous and will result in us getting humbled in the conflicts to come (having nukes will not make us impervious)

There's a fine line between parasites short-term maximizing how much blood they can suck out of their host, and parasites ending up net losers because they got too greedy and undermined their host's longer-term health.

Historically, military grafters and war profiteers haven't been know for either their long-term thinking, or their judgement about fine lines.

Did they really have to tell their programmers this ? (see Page 52) AV Rule 174 (MISRA Rule 107) The null pointer shall not be de-referenced.

The rule isnt there to say "don't do this". It's there to say "you must prove that this holds true, in any circumstance".

Commercial jet airliners, which in all likelihood you have flown with, have system controllers which intentionally dereference the null pointer. Yes, I have seen the code, the intention was an integrity check at startup, which computed a checksum of the memory, which included the value stored at address zero.

There are old idioms in C where null pointers are intentionally dereferenced to induce the expected outcome. Not the best way to write that code because beyond being less explicit about intent it also isn't guaranteed to work.

The rule is likely speaking to this code.

I've done it, I think more than once.

I was getting to a point in the code. I could tell by a log statement or some such. But I didn't know in what circumstances I was getting there - what path through the code. So I put in something like

  char *p = 0;
  *p = 1;

in order to cause a core dump. That core dump gave me the stack trace, which let me see how I got there.

But I never checked that in. If I did, I would expect a severe verbal beating at the code review. Even more, it never made it into release.

Awesome job is it possible to have predefined specing features and perhaps a layout as well for instance if I need a specific layout, font , order , certain UI elements it could be for accessibilitys' sake or preference , can you make the internal code used for app creation be configurable insuring security of course.
