Coding on mobile is hard

I’m glad you noticed. That was my favorite part too.

I just tested it in PowerShell. Works fine

$i = 1
$x = -$i
$x

Outputs -1

It’s an incoherent hodgepodge of C#/.NET, PowerShell, and JavaScript, each of which I’ve forgotten more about than I currently know

function myFunction() {
  try {
    x = new Random().nextInt();
    if (x != 10) {
     throw "not 10";
    }
    else {
      return (10)
    }
    catch(err) {
      myFunction()
    }
  }
}

x = myFunction()

Commit notes: Added error handling

function foo() {
  x = new Random();
  case (x = 10):
    return (x);
  default:
    foo()
}

Shit, you’re right. x is declared inside the loop, so it doesn’t exist until the loop begins execution.

Technically, I suppose you could say the compiler will allocate memory for x without assigning a value before the loop is executed and… I’m understanding what you mean now, I think.

Not in this case. First, i is declared and assigned a value of 0. Next, x is declared and assigned a value of -i or -0. On the first loop iteration, i will decrement to -1, perform the conditional check, then execute the loop body which will assign x to -i or -(-1) or positive 1, and so on.

The only time a variable is created without a value is if you declare one without assigning a value like with

[int]i;

Now write a function to unroll the while loop to “optimize it for the compiler”

The glut of US tech workers is due to the excessive number of H1B visas being issued. This year, the number was almost the same, but slightly higher than the total number of US tech graduates. Why hire an expensive American new graduate when you can hire someone from India with 3-5 years of experience at 60% market rate instead?

I can read just fine. You’re asserting that climate change should be embraced because we’ll learn to “live with it.” I’m pointing out that you’re ignoring a giant mountain of evidence that says the best case scenario is that ten percent of our species survives. So, if we’re understanding each other correctly, ninety percent of humans dying is the “new normal” you’re saying we should be cool with, and I’m not cool with that.

I just realized you’re from .ml. Please block me, I can’t stand you assholes anyway.

Ok then, it sounds like you think the only way to improve society is to replace its members with ones who are “more sensible,” as defined by you. Sorry, but I’m not sure how to help you with that one either.

You’re right, capitalism won’t make the Earth completely uninhabitable. Many mass extinction events have occurred in our planet’s past, and life has always eventually recovered (obviously).

However, capitalism will destroy our planet’s ability to sustain our society, and eventually our species, and it is doing so at an alarming rate. To disagree, at this point, is to ignore an amout of scientific evidence so substantial, it amounts similarly to denying the Earth is round.

It sounds like you’re saying the only way to better a society is to replace all its members with ones who already agree with you. If so, I’m not real sure how to help you. Good luck with that.

Climate change goes beyond killing each other; it’s killing our planet’s ability to sustain our species.

They have bunkers, they have stockpiles of food and medicine, and they have staff to maintain it all. They fully believe they have the means and resources to insulate themselves from all consequences.
