But it's what for(;;); complies to in ASM with Visual C++. I know potato, potato.
if (Object.DividedByZero == true) { Universe.Implode(); }

Oh, of course. Hmm, given the ASM answer, I think it's time to pull out the Donald card and go for machine language. (2 bytes - EB FE)
00401000 - EB FE - JMP SHORT 00401000
From the days I used 16bit TASM regularly, I think you could write this as jmp $-2 or perhaps it was jmp @-2. I forget. I may be confusing TASM with MASM with NASM here.
Oh how the luxury of high-level languages spoils us.
Writing a huffman compressor/decompressor in asm to decompress the kernel is some er, 'fun'.

Bah, you beat me to the Chuck Norris joke.

If the loop is a circle, then its length is pi * diameter. QED.

Smaller than nested infinite loop

Well, if your loop includes a recursive call, I'd say it's done as soon as you fill the call stack.

... has become nightmare. To me, at least. Why ? Because:
- Ads loading and slowing down the real content loading.
- When ads are eventually loaded, the displayed elements move so that the link you clicked on in the article is replaced by an add, and there you go with an add opening a new page.
- Full-page pop-ups that you can only close with a barely clickable 2pix by 2pix icon, provided you find it somewhere on the screen.
- Pop-up asking to install the application instead of using the mobile version of the site EVERY TIME you visit the website, switch from the browser to google play (for android)
- Pop-up for the authorization of the website using cookies
- Using a combo-box or radio buttons is a nightmare when more than 3 elements in the list.
- Watching a video on a website messing up with the system sound, also asking EVERY TIME for agreement to display full screen,...
etc... etc... I am under the impression of being back in 1998, where this was the standard on PCs.
I haven't touched my tablet for more than 6 months now, and I only using my mobile phone for surfing when really no other alternative is available.

Depends where you go - CP is fine, as are the other sites I visit on a regular basis. Mind you, I only browse via WiFi anyway.
But some of the hint sites for Android games... 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Any newspaper site, or content aggregation. Then amazon, yahoo, etc..
|
|

I don't read newspapers on the tablet, but Amazon and FleaBay both switch to a "mobile view" on my tablet so I don't notice any problem. (Just like CP used to, but I noticed that as a problem!)

Do you get the question everytime about installing their app instead of going on in the browser ?
|
|
|
|
|
Nope - I just double checked them both.

Ummmmmmmmmmm. I am really curious about one thing.
Are you using Adblock and it's not working? Or, god forbid, you are NOT using Adblock?
If not, may I ask why not?
I have met people who don't have Adblock before. I think.... Once.

I am using adblock. Adblock does not capture pop-up windows, does not remove the "cookies authorization", does not increase the page loading speed, does not prevent the questions about installing the application instead of using the mobile web site.
