In my experience, all the major platforms eventually close all accounts.

Exactly the problem I had. It would take Amazon almost no effort to make a single archive with all those files in. I cannot help but view this as deliberate obstruction.
I've been trying for over two years to get my data from Amazon. I eventually got to a point where Amazon provided a web-page, which has no less than sixty-two download links on, each of which would have to be manually…
Seemed okay to me with regard to caveats. Performance issues -> it's lock-free and scales profoundly better than non-lock-free.

An atomic write will need to be issued, and on the face of it, that C11 code is not issuing an atomic write. I could be wrong, but I would expect a particular function or macro to be used for an atomic write, and when…

Lock-free garbage collection exists and there's quite a body of literature.
You can produce this behaviour. Look for MCAS, from Cambridge Uni. It never took off. I think it didn't scale.
You're talking here about memory barriers, but I was asking if atomic writes are in use. Atomic writes have nothing to do with memory barriers. On modern platforms atomic writes are available without memory barriers of…

A barrier, of any kind, makes no difference here. Barriers only influence the order in which events become visible if and when they DO become visible. Barriers say nothing about whether or not events actually do become…
Neither of which is Smith asserting rents are parasitic. He describes economics; others put opinions into his words.
> even called parasitic I do not recall this from WoN. Quote please.
I was speaking once to a Dutch acquaintence, who told me that in his economics class at Uni, they were taught Smith was in favour of large State subsidies...!
In what way? The subjects are utterly different. All I can think of is that it introduces you to Smith and his style of writing. To my eye, this is not of any particular value.
> He saw the interests of large capitalists as conflicting with those of the public: capitalists seek high profits, which corrupt and impoverish society. This is rubbish. WoN is one of my very favourate books. Smith is…
Russia has invaded Ukraine. It's like having a criminal break into your house. If my neighbours are unhappy with me taking action against that criminal - maybe they're friends with him - I'm not much inclined, in the…

Consider; Russia is invading Ukraine. If they keep at it, they will win; the military balance is too much in their favour. Having conquered, they will then block out all content which carries truth and replace it with…
