Yes. Sometimes you’re limited by the hardware you’re controlling. This code is a bit hard to justify with that excuse though. Normally your code would do a read from hardware to see if the value decremented and then repeat the write. (Possibly a sleep/yield in there if required.)

His behavior during the NABJ interview was classic Donny: a narcissist doing everything he could to deflect and avoid been held to account for his prior words/behavior.
Just happened that he let his racism shine through as he tried to worm his way out. Which shows how cognitively impaired he is.
I agree, but this dumpster fire is burning inside the US government. It’s going to take some critical stuff with it as it burns itself out. :(
2·2 years agoI love AntennnaPod - except when I’m in the car. It doesn’t have Android Auto support.
18·3 years agoMy parents adopted a quirky cat that seems to have had some past trauma. She’s finally getting more friendly and less skiddish - AFTER FOUR YEARS.
Sometimes it’s just love and time that helps them get over past trauma.
It’s definitely possible to convert in both directions. I’ve never done it though. The technical hurdles made it unpalatable. My main method of moving back and forth was to keep my personal data on a separate disk from the OS disk. That way I could always take my data with me when I changed OSes or VMs.
I think it’s far less invasive to setup a Linux VM that can be thrown away vs. setting up dual booting.
With Hyper-V or Virtualbox the OP can have a Linux distribution installed and booting very quickly without fear of disrupting his current Windows installation.
4·3 years ago16+ years. Learned about it from Joel Spolsky’s blog.
I pretty much agree 100% with your characterization of the decline and your overall experience.

I know you’re being sarcastic, but if does point out the fact that capitalism is only held in check by government. RockStar obviously waited until they knew they could get away with it given the current attitudes in all branches of the US government.
