Thanks, I understand the problem with using memory after it's been freed and possibly access it changed by another part of the process. I guess I was confused by the double free explanation I read, which didn't really say how it could be exploited, but I think you are right it still needs to be accessed later by the original program, which would not happen in Rust.

Thank you, that is very clear.

The way I understand it, it is a bug in C implementation of free() that causes it to do something weird when you call it twice on the same memory. Maybe In Rust you can never call free twice, so you would never come across this bug. But, also Rust probably doesn't have the same bug.

My point is it seems it is a bug in the underlying implementation of free(), not to be caught by the compiler, and can't Rust have such errors no matter its superior design?

My Android keyboard will automatically capitalize lots of common words like target, guess, even-- shit it's not doing it now, it heard me thinking. I guess it's brands, but some of them I don't recognize. I'm going to be mad if it starts doing it again as soon as I leave this thread.

Captain drives from the stern, though. If you sit up in bed you're facing the bow.

All they need is a third developer to divide up the project for them and design the interfaces

They should have one for heterosexuality, too, if it's all about tastes.

It helps make sure it's absorbed so you don't have to pee right away. If you've just eaten you don't have to

Just as a quick hope-it-works because it's easy, try drinking a glass of water with just a tiny amount of sugar and salt (like literally you should not be able to taste it, should just taste slightly fishy) before your nap.

I'm with the others on seeing a therapist, though, and first-round antidepressants have had huge positive effects in my personal experience, so it's not necessarily going to be this long mind warping journey that I think people are scared to start sometimes.

Here you go: Raksura by Martha Wells, of Murderbot fame.

That's what the sentencing court called it I guess. She was arrested on terrorism charges for her clothing and for promoting women's rights on her social media, along with two female relatives, so the quotes are to show that it was not material or militant support, but expression of her views.

They're removing ads from the site based on content standards they have agreed to with the advertisers. They're not censoring anything and have only notified you of the changes you would need to make if you want to keep their business. You are not owed revenue from Google or anyone else.

Is it a problem that so much of the Internet, including your site, "depends" on corporate advertising? Yes. Is that censorship? No. You are free to find your own sponsors.
