Not just C++. Even C parsing is context-dependent because of typedef. Requires a bit of hackery to parse in a conventional LL/LARL/LR parser.

All these issues having been solved already in kiosk setups.


No, we aren't.

It was this exact part of the conversation that touched me negatively too. marsf expresses some very valid criticism that, instead of being publicly addressed, is being handled by "let's discuss it privately". This always means that they don't want to discuss, they just want to shut you down.


And how would they know if my cheese has holes, given that there is a non-zero probability that a random cut over a piece of cheese goes through no holes at all? They would have to make so many cuts that the cheese becomes grated. And grated cheese most definitely doesn't have holes!


They know the density of holeless cheese, and can compare to the sample. If it's underweight it probably has holes?


Eureka!


Having experienced several of the cuisines rated by Taste Atlas, I would not trust a comma out of their reviews :P


Swiss cheese have holes so the swiss dwarfs can hide in them.


So in Switzerland, Swiss cheese dwarfs Swiss dwarfs in size.


Of all the places I've been, Singapore.

They have a population of 6 to 7 million people in an area of 700 square kilometers, resulting in a population density of 8300 people / km^2. Substantially more than that if you account for the fact that a large percentage of the island is still tropical jungle.

Despite that fact, their city planning is so good with large open spaces everywhere interspersed with greenery, that you almost never feel claustrophobic. Even the so-called "hearland" neighbourhoods with rows after rows of high-rise residential HDB buildings are quite pleasant.

The most claustrophobic place I've been in Singapore are the few squares in the center of CBD filled with skyscrapers that almost obscure you the view of the sky.


You aren't kidding! I picked a random intersection in what looks like an urban part of the city and it's beautiful: https://maps.app.goo.gl/P3aUTtYejh5YHvFF6


It's always DNS, except when it's BGP.


Singapore does exactly that, and they explicitly warn outbound Singaporean travelers that any drug use outside Singapore will be prosecuted as if it has happened in Singapore.


If it's just the outbound Singaporeans, that would be different because they'd at least have the citizenship to claim jurisdiction on.


They're warning everybody, not just Singaporeans. It's just that Singaporeans are the most likely to go travel abroad, have some fun, and then come back like nothing has happened. But if somebody inbound gets caught in a random drug test at the airport (they do that), he's going to be prosecuted just the same no matter their citizenship. There were several (in-)famous examples of this happening.


A positive drug test at the border is quite different from being prosecuted for taking drugs in another country.


Nowadays the Indonesian law requires at least two words for the person's full name, and the full name is regarded as a single entity no matter how many words it contains. Older generations of Javanese, having only a single name, usually duplicate it - I have seen such duplicate names in official Indonesian documents.
