  • I am also curious how much of those “%70 of the vulnerabilities” would be detected by tools like valgrind, CPPcheck etc (either directly in the former case or indirectly in the latter). If a major part, then the main problem is people not incentivized to / not having enough time to use these tools.


  • Oh no doubt that ISIS will be an even more horrible hell for the region than even the Taliban. But also what Taliban commits there is beyond the word injustice it is violation of every known human rights and is a cultural genocide. Their incompetence will probably end up killing millions in the region.

    I understand that the meme might be operating from a much more simplistic view of ISIS = terrorist = Taliban but nevertheless it is the involvement of the major world powers in the affairs of these regions which enable these groups. Lets not forget that ISIS’ emergence was sped and perhaps even mostly born out by the USA’s involvement in the region and USA’s justification was also fighting terrorism. In the end Russia fighting terrorism in the region might even be the funnier point in this meme.



  • they already do a fantastic job of “terrorising” their own local populace, burning food aid, banning forms of art (paintings, photography, music and what not), banning girls from most social and work life, getting money from drugs, kidnapping and extortion.

    We can discuss the formal definition of terrorism for pages but I am pretty convinced the meme has a valid point. Sure it is also a government now, so superficially it might make sense to partner with a government to fight local terrorism but when the government is the main source of domestic terrorism, then yea this meme is still funny.

    And if they hadn’t secured some deal with the USA and were not in power right now, I doubt they would forever shy away from suicide bombing the fuck out of that place.

    Finally anyone who has a grain’s worth of intuition about the world’s politics would know that what Russia calls “a partnership against terrorism” is a cover up for continuing to meddle in affairs of middle eastern countries like many other major players (USA or NATO would call it bringing down dictators for instance). Though this is admittedly separate from what is being discussed here, I was compelled to make this point too.






  • even if we completely disregard the possibility of not producing so many eggs (reduced consumption of meat and eggs to start with) tech is moving forward. There are more and more reliable ways of determining if the chick will be male by physical and spectroscopic assays so you can determine the gender within a week of hatching and at least dispose of the egg (nervous system seems to develop after this period).





  • And out of 7 days, if you are only being >inconvenienced for a couple hours maybe that’s >something you should be more tolerant of.

    Out of 7 days these are the only two days most people can sleep past 8 and some people like sleeping. It is no different than consistently throwing late night parties during weekdays when most people have to wake up early the next day. There is a generally acceptable universal range which is no loud noises between 10pm to 9am. If you are the person who needs to make noise (such as the occasional party or repairs that need to start early etc) then it’s you who should go and tell/ask the neighbours about it, not the neighbours who should come and convince you to reduce noise.
