If something is not used in C++, it's not compiled at all. Is the same true for iPhone?
If I compile a program and there are unused classes or other stuff, will it be compiled or ignored?
Got my Wii card for 2000 points and bought three Zelda games and have been playing Zelda all effing weekend ;)
@Moshe ok, actually, I do appear to be near some sort of fires in LA, but I don't think they are going to have impact on me, they're like 40 miles north of me or something.
@Sathya Cool. So, should I play with WinPhone 7 (Considering the book I got today.) or continue trying to get Android working? That Optimus T is still locked to T Mobile...
@Sathya I know, but it's hard to get in touch with any of them. I got back an email that they sent to all webOS devs, but haven't heard from the student liaison.
@Sathya: Not near the fires, but it's a (relative to my prior fire-stricken city of LA) a small town. So everyone knows someone who knows someone dealing with this right now.
I was just wondering how much real-time strategy game techniques are really being used and considered...if there's any extent to which someone is trying to optimize the outcome and has control to make holistic decisions.
I'm assuming it's rare for some guy with aerial maps to make the point-and-click call to evacuate lines of houses, and then run bulldozers over them to create firebreaks, etc.
If society prioritized the global outcome and was willing to defer to that kind of judgment, they'd have laid out the cities and done zoning differently in the first place, I imagine. :-/
Logistics nightmare at the moment. I could put someone up if they needed a place to spend a night, but it's the edge cases that are the problem at the moment...horses, families, dogs. Can't do a lot there.
Oddly but not entirely coincidentally, it was one of the nicest days here in a long time, good breeze. Good for having your windows open, bad for spreading fires.
My profile used to say both US / PH in my location field, but it was automatically reduced to the first by the system. I corrected that just the other day, it now displays accurately
@Damodar The flags are presented to us in a queue ordered by the flag weight of the people who submitted the flag. We basically just start at the top and work our way down. Sometimes, we actually get to the end!
I typically check the queue first for SPAM flags, as I like to see SPAM posts removed as soon as possible. So, I may start on page ... 3 ... of the queue instead of 1, just to handle all of the SPAM flags first
@GeorgeMarian It's not that bad, really. Instead of going to Reddit, I just open the mod queue and spend my 'decompression time' a little more constructively.
Well, Stack Overflow is a very cut and dry site, so the decisions we have to make are also rather cut and dry. The site I don't envy is Programmers SE if it reaches the kind of volume SO experiences. Good golly Mrs. Molly, I'd hate to see that hypothetical queue.
The thing is, I tend to visit many of the sites from time to time when I notice interesting things from the twitter bot, so I guess my 'dead weight' will probably persist in a dozen or so places
That's only problematic due to making a long tail needlessly longer, but I'm not sure much could be done about it
In that case, although a bit overly succinct, the user was trying to answer the question. "Not an answer" is for something that describes absolutely no solution to the question at hand, not even an incorrect one.
E.g. "Thanks", "Me Too!" or answers that ask purely for clarification of the question. Additionally, answers that just contain a link to another resource without at least summarizing what the link says are candidates for speedy deletion.
I'm amazed at how many from 2008 are still turning up. I thought we zapped all of those a few months ago

I currently have a flag weight of 531.7108. Is it just me, or are the 4 digits of precision after the decimal point just a tad unnecessary? Borderline bug I think.
Hi everyone. I wanna ask if it's fine to flag question as offtopic & vote it to close? I did following:
I went to the question with 4 close votes. I have flagged it as offtopic I have voted to close it (it was migrated to SF) I have received "helpful" status on that flag.
@TimPost sorry for later response, I was not notified about you mentioning me here. So answer is, no. But when somebody posts answer with only one link, with no explain, just nested link, I can't flag it because my flag will be 90% declined and post edited

Why does iPhone sample code use so many intermediate variables?
I've noticed in apple's sample code that you get a lot of code such as the following:

For example tags are inlined automatically in all the posts (questions, qnswers and chat messages)
Example : java
Why badges are not?

I mean google based their results on customs of their users. If many people search the camera manufacturer with the Cannon keyword rather than Canon, it makes this rise in the rank I guess.
Right. But, I don't remember any reports that there was a link to the Comodo attack, other than the fact that it's yet another CA that had some issues.
Are we talking about the same avatar? I'm seeing two humans in front of a bamboo wall (I'm guessing... you and your daughter?), which is more like "it is sepia" than "it is a giant drop shadow."
Some teenager, who never answered a single C++ question on SO, and who was never before seen in the C++ chat room, storms into the room, actively searches the room's history for words and phrases he finds offensive and then goes on a rampage flagging a bunch of old messages. Of course, given just...
@genesis It's not a question of time. It's a question of me not wanting my brain to wilt a little more as I read each one. Trust me, you don't want me looking closely at that comment thread. There wouldn't be a comment thread if I did.
We had a big discussion some time back about those hilarious but admittedly off-topic high-voted CW questions on SO.
I said I would see to it that those questions find a place elsewhere, outside the network.
(Like the boat programming question, but others as well)
I might take fifteen minutes each day over the next couple of weeks to put a tool together that can fetch those deleted questions into an archive site of some sort.
The thing is, as far as I can see, I can't use the API: I want to fetch the full page as-is, including logos and everything, to make it a historical record.
So I guess I have to build a client that can log in as myself or some other 10k+ account using OpenID.
I would like to ask the community whether this reasoning is sound, or whether there is some other way I'm overlooking.
Is that a SO, or a Meta.SO question?
I would prefer Meta because the people who know the API hang around there.
I might be interested in assisting, as having something capable of logging into SO and acting as a user is something I'd like to be able to do. maniacal laughter
