Chris Katko said: It really highlights how hard it is to start a new country and how lucky we are to be in a country that didn't explode into corruption the second a power vacuum was created by a new government. I beg to differ. Corruption is rampant in the US government. The people are for the most part kept stupid and ignorant so they don't know the difference. -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

You need to remember there is a huge range of corruption. In "general" the US follows the laws on the books. There's a huge difference between that, and literally killing everyone who says something bad about you. South Sudan can't even get people to agree what their "government" is, and has for years, still not created a proper constitution. That's corruption and incompetence to a far far larger degree than the USA. That's NOT saying that the US, and Canada, and other 1st world countries don't have plenty of corruption. https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Corruption_Perceptions_Index USA, #23 And I'm not BASHING South Sudan. I wish they could have the kind of prosperity we take for granted here. But they're currently, literally, 1 from the absolute bottom in the world right now. -----sig: |

Yeah, but I've heard you've got lots of problems with roving hobbits. -----sig: |

I'll be discussing what to do with our sister, who having went to Indiana University, is still unconscious in a gutter somewhere smelling like bambam on a bad day. I still will have contributed nothing useful to this community, and the little shits I will have spawned will be causing hair loss. - My brother actually hasn't graduated yet, but he's on the way and learning a lot about the CS field. |

I'm busy parenting my daughter (which is a few weeks old) and her 3 years old BigBro ^^ "Code is like shit - it only smells if it is not yours" |

Ah, one of these threads. Good to see so many people living their lives and doing new things. I've been a busy bugger. Bought a house, I work my own legal cases, raising my 10 year old son, and winning the occasional accolade for my photos. I really wish I had the time to do any coding but I fear that ship has sailed. |

I do use Git, but for only for software. For personal files, I just have a collection in my documents directory in plain text.
