Makeup is a form of fraud, yet wmn think they are owed compensation for being the scammers

My list of grievances include:

Same quality of questions started being rudely rejected around 2016

You had to know the answer in order to make the question

I spent time writing an answer, just to find the question was unfairly closed

Some questions were closed even when they matched the quality of most upvoted questions. When I faced the moderators about this I got shitt excuses.

In economics, questions were turned into political activism.

In the end I was convinced the site was intentionally destroyed.

I got lost when a single line turned into fractals

The movie was garbage

He didn't even had a pocket calculator, and had to figure out the geometry without a concept of Cartesian representation.

Classic Transport Tycoon allowed you to set a locomotive waiting on a street crossing to run over and destroy trucks and vehicles of the competition. I wonder if there is an equivalent in this game

I don't mind if it is written by a human or a machine, but AI has a way of writing things that are exasperating, with unnecessary detours around the point that have lately made me very intolerant of stuff for which in the past I had more patience. As soon as I see content that reads like AI slop, I feel like I am wasting my time watching paint dry, and I throw it away.

The us constitution has been destroyed one step a time. It's dead letter now.

This is an ad for that website

A switch compiled into an array lookup table

I put labels on each return, and took their addresses to get the base and delta. The creator of c++ always says that such kind of code has to work "because it is c++", meaning the programmer should be able to do whatever he wants. Anyways I also used assembler to make it work (had to include nop instructions to pad the addresses, because the goto can't go to any byte. So it consumed a lot of instruction l1 cache, which is not as bad as data cache, but it ended being slow anyways because gotos trigger branch prediction. In the end the fastest method was to pack the array in uint64 and do (x >> i) & 111b

The GCC compiler is very unpredictable about what it considers unreachable code. Once, I wanted to avoid reading an array x[i] to save L1 cache space, so I used a computed goto (goto base + delta * i;) followed by return x1; return x2; ... return xn;. However, the compiler decided that only the first two return values were reachable and optimized away the rest of the code

Southern American? It's Argentine or Chilean?

Still no clue what this is supposed to do
