Hello,
I am a Computer Programmer Analyst student. I am taking this course
which for this week's assignment requires me to join some newsgroups.
I am sorry to have to spam you with such useless crap.
Regardless I am supposed to instigate a response of some sort, so could
someone please fulfill that requirement for me?
Thanks,
Nakor

Just find any group with the word "test" on its name and spam all you want.
That's their purpose.

Please indicate the establishment running the course and state the exact
requirements they gave you.
You'll definitely get a good* response from that.
*for a wide definition of good, from many viewpoints.

Hello,
I actually got all I needed for this assignment as far as I am
concerned. Thank you for your unsuspecting help :)
Nakor
Well, let me better explain. This was an idiotic assignment in my
opinion that I'm sure was designed for the students that are not in
technology courses and therefore have not likely been using the
internet for the last 13 years or so.
I am told now however that there are groups with the word "test" in
them that no one would mind me spamming. That would have been nice to
know before :)

I believe you mentioned a requirement to "join" newsgroups, and it so
happens that this year, to formally join this group, you must either:
- Receive a warning from your ISP for obscene language on "alt.flame"
or
- Get *plonked* by atleast three posters on "alt.test"
I think there was one more option, whole lot of, do this, do that, but
dont do, blah blah blah ...for all eternity, way too complicated.

this is your official response from the world wide web:-)

Well, I thought people should have suggested by post naked pictures of
yourself on alt.binaries.pi ctures.erotica. male
That would get a response.
And ask for plane fare from Peterborough.
More seriously, I think the professor should be warning students to
protect their email addresses and privacy when they post to USENET,
before sending them on assignments like this.

Well if your assignment was to troll newsgroups then you have succeeded.
But are you seriously suggesting that out of all the available
newsgroups you were not able to post on topic to a single one?
Instead of treating it as a chore and a rubbish assignment could you
have not taken it as an opportunity to actually learn something?
Usenet is a fantastic and undervalued resource. You have yet to fully
understand that and even though you may have made the assessment
criteria, in my book, you failed.

Why did I do that? When I met the clients and at some point they vaguely
asked whether eventually would it be possible to have some people who could
read the data and some who couldn't but that it wasn't important right now.
And I said, 'sure, we can do that later'.
So now I've developed an app without any thought to security and am trying
to apply it afterwards. Doh!, doh! and triple doh!

Sorry I made a typo in the code
The correct one is like this :

int main(void)

int *buf1 = malloc(10*sizeof(int));
int *buf2 = malloc(10*sizeof(int));
printf(buf1 > buf2 ? "Downwards" : "Upwards");

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.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
