Hey, guys.
I noticed plenty of people feel the need to update me
on the status of their killfile every time my nom de
plume changes as a result of the mail2news gateways
I'm using. (I'm admittedly a bit of a coward and don't
want to be executed by my government or by members of
the CLC Squad.)
These killfile status updates, the purpose of which
is beyond me, are cluttering the newsgroup with off-topic
drivel. There are thousands of people reading this newsgroup,
and even if 1,000 people killfiled me, which is highly
unlikely, I fail to see how I would be deterred from posting
my on-topic, important posts. It's absurd to think I didn't
expect to be killfiled on this newsgroup, so it's not as if I'm
sitting here in a state of shock.
You can killfile me on my subject lines as follows:
1. ".* Dick Heathfield's book errors"
2. Anything containing the words "Han from China". I'll
follow protocol and stick to subject lines containing
those words.
I'm a gentleman kind of troll.
Yours,
Han from China

My usual technique (every newsgroup has a different killfile in
this newsreader, so I've done this multiple times) is to kill all
posts from anonymising proxies. If someone's not prepared to
attach an identity to what they say, I don't believe they're
saying it with enough conviction to be worth wasting my time on.
Life's too short to be reading the petty spewings of cowards.
We'll see how long you last...

No, people feel the need to warn other users that you're a morphing
stupid troll.

No, you're just a troll.

Actually, no; they're providing a significant bit of information, in
that the clueful members of the community here are signalling to others
that they're not bothering to read any more of your posts.
This should be an even more significant bit of information to you,
especially if you spent long enough lurking to realize who the clueful
members of the community actually are. What you do with it, of course,
is entirely up to you.

I'm sorry. I forgot to mention that I had killfiled "Borked", "Nomen",
and "Han". If more of his trolling, anonymous, sniping crap appears
under another name, I'll killfile those as well. The purpose of such
announcements is to warn others about your destructive, anti-social nature. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I have been reading the article at
http://www.crockford.com/javascript/private.html
and I was wondering if there also was some way to be able to have
private methods that can be called from public methods, but not from
outside.
Just throwing an exception if a private method was called from outside
would be sufficient, but I don't know how to determine if the method was
called from outside. Anyone else thought about doing this?

About a month ago, Heathfield posted the peudosource for random permuting
from TAOCP. It was all of maybe five lines. You needed to be able to do
two things: be able to get a random number in a range and swap. I
remembered that Dan Pop taught me to write the swap as a macro. With forum
improvements, this became:
#define SWAP(m, n) (tmp = (m), (m) = (n), (n) = tmp)

Oh, fair enough. I'd overlooked that explanation. I see that what you've
described is basically a form of interprocess communication in a multi-threaded
Usenet environment. Since some of the people here are apparently on the ANSI
committee, this could spell good things for the C language. I encourage them
to continue.
FWIW, I'd like to signal to everyone here that I've stopped reading

The troll calling himself "Han from China" has made a habit of
starting a new thread for each followup, with a meaningless subject
line such as "(part 33) Han from China answers your C questions...".
He often writes things that call for a response. The result is that a
disturbingly large proportion of the current traffic in this newsgroup
is in threads with "Han from China answers your C questions" in the
subject header.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
