You make some solid points; however, I'm still going to side with Google.
I went ahead and gave you a +5.
I'm of the opinion I am because in the USA we're running at somewhere in the neighborhood of 17 trillion dollars of debt - a debt that is likely to continue to grow until people finally realize the US dollar is worthless and we all end up in a new great depression.
That debt isn't because Google is criminally mismanaged.
So I get a little bit angry when the innovators in our society - the people who bring me excellent goods and services - get raped by the elected criminal class who do nothing but increase the public debt while generating services of the quality of our public schools.
Do you think if Google were in charge of the public schools they'd be what they are today?
If Google did put out a product that bad we'd go to Microsoft schools - but the fascists that run our government would dare allow for their services to be challenged by competition.
Regarding the net worth of the elected criminal class here is a list of recent Prime Ministers:
David Cameron Net Worth: 50 million
Gordon Brown Net Worth: 15 million
Tony Blair Net Worth: 60 million
John Major: 240+ million
Our Presidents here in the states are much of the same order.
Yes, companies can and do attempt to cheat the system and yes there is a role for good government; however, from where I'm sitting it is just one group of pirates raiding the coffers of another group of pirates. They money they get from Google isn't going to build you a school - it is going to buy whores and booze and they'll borrow money to build you a school and add it to your tax bill.

No mate. It isn't 'old' C++ or any kind of C++.
Printf is C.

Personally I prefer its use to the C++ streams, I find it much easier than all the "<<" crap. This and the fact that I rarely appreciate operator overloading (unless where it makes sense and often it is slightly limited) make me prefer plain old stable known and reliable printf's.

it doesn't matter if it's c or c++, it's not safe :/ that's what matters.
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

I see why most c programs can easily be hacked :P
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

I would say, that is not a very valid argument. Any program can be easily hacked if the programer doesn't take the needed counter messures
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

That is correct, but i think it's an addition to my comment not a rework
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

I'm not so sure - ever tried hacking Ada? You have to break Ada to make it hackable (With unchecked_conversion)!

I remember Ada.
She used to make a nice cheese and tomato sandwich.

Ada Hacked!? I had enough trouble getting to compile

All that rigour comes at an expense!

Yo mama so fat she uses printf
|
|
|
|
|
I don't always printf
but when I do
I print "f"
|
|
|
|
|
Which is a subset of C++.
|
|

|

Well, sure. But if some geezer is going to go on a MS site and waffle about printf he needs to be accurate. Incidentally, gcc natively does c. Typically I've had to add g++ for c++, so they are distinct.

Don't you mean "Mr Stevens?"

Possibly "Mr Lucas", or even "Mr Abrams".
Or even "Mr Disney" via a ouija board?

Apparently Lord Vader is Mr Stevens, his secret identity was exposed by a canteen worker: clickety[^]
