I think the better way to do this would be to throw a "JoltException" which you could catch in your program if you wanted to, like any other exception.
It seems like it'd be a huge mess to try to write code succeeding the loop which tries to handle the case where your loop code didn't complete like you expected it to.
I am a gringo that lived in Australia for 6 years. In the state where I lived the police had two kinds of cameras.
Large fixed cameras were well marked a couple of kilometers ahead. You are only at risk for a short time, But you would be amazed how the Aussies drove right smack on the speed limit as soon as they saw the signs. Speeding under the camera netted you big points, double on holidays.
The other kind were unmanned mobile units in white vans. Typically placed in urban areas in plain sight (at the bottom of a hill--bastards!). A fine, but no points however.
Another Aussie state actually had a law that the cops could not hide while operating a radar gun.
I found the Aussies to be extremely aggressive drivers, but only at slow speeds and in parking lots. The only time I saw Mad Max, he was driving with 'P' plates or at Summer Nats.
Bottom line: visible enforcement is strong prevention. Most U.S. departments are really after the revenue.
It more than undermines it, it encourages speeding in areas that don't show radar. Turn on an inverse of the map and it gives you speeding zones rather than radar zones.
The marketing attempt at "... RadarLoc encourages law-abiding behavior." is patently false. It encourages the opposite, speeding outside radar enforced zones.
We're still small but growing fast. Looking for smart, creative, and hard-working people who think that finding an apartment in big cities is way too difficult.
Highlights:
- PHP
- awesome group
- early stage equity
It's just semantics. The term rock star was involved in the recruiting process of my current job, and those who used it included a great hands on CTO and a CEO with above average tech knowledge. I had no illusions as to some kind of huge salary or RIAA like treatment.
It's cliche, yea. But sooner or later you'll miss out on a great opportunity if you run away when you see "rock star".
It's probably all the time spent on LtU mucking with my brain, but I have to suppress a minor rage every time I see this idiom. Does this happen to any other programming languages people?
"In popular culture, people like to say 'It’s just semantics!', which is a kind of put-down: it implies that their correspondent is quibbling over minor details of meaning in a jesuitical way. But communication is all about meaning [...], therefore, we will wear the phrase 'It’s just semantics!' as a badge of honor, because semantics leads to discourse which (we hope) leads to civilization. Just semantics. That’s all there is." -Shriram Krishnamurthi, _Programming Languages:
Application and Interpretation_ (http://www.cs.brown.edu/~sk/Publications/Books/ProgLangs/200...)
In other words: Absolutely. (Good, free book, btw.)
Given that it actually violates the policy mentioned, Rackspace absolutely has the right to do this, and I don't hold it against them. They did what they thought was right for this situation. Unfortunately it won't have any effect on the Koran burning event.
Personally this makes me more likely to purchase hosting from them (unless I wanted to make something offensive like this).
Counting the minutes until we hear a politician claim that this violates first amendment rights ...
Exactly, they agreed to Rackspace's conditions when they purchased hosting from them. First amendments have nothing do do with this considering it's not the government which is censoring here but the company providing the service. The only thing the church can argue is that it's a breach of contract.
First amendment free speech rights applies to government censorship not to corporation's censoring things done with their services.
But did the actual website contain hate-speech? I know these guys are clowns, but internet-archives only has an old page from 2008. My google cache has some crackpot pages, but nothing that rises (in my mind) to the level of hate-speech:
