I'm with you alex, I tend to only use classes when I've got to maintain state, I just use a function otherwise. Here's how I'd likely code this ... #include <iostream> #include <string> #include…

A buddy of mine showed me a cool trick to avoid this type of problem. What you do is first use SELECT to see the records in question: SELECT * from some_table where idx >= 5 Then, once you are staring at the records…
Definitely second the recommendation of Lilith's Brood, I also found it very moving. I bought it based upon the strength of her (much) earlier short story Bloodchild which I found myself thinking about for weeks after…
Suppose you were a news outlet and suppose you were trying to maximize your company's profitability. Clearly,when folks change the channel away from your program, your profitability goes down. So, you might do a bit of…

I immediately close any site that does this - don't care what they are offering/selling - if they behave this way, I guarantee their wares aren't worth bothering with. It's almost like looking at code, I generally only…
Including yours? ;-)
I don't doubt the CRA is part of it, but I think the fed lowering and lowering and lowering the prime rate after 9/11 in order the stimulate the economy figured prominently as well. With interest rates low, banks have…
Three prisoners were sitting in a U.S. jail, found guilty of "economic crimes" and were also comparing stories. The first one said, "I charged higher prices than my competitors, and I was found guilty of profiteering,…
