I believe it's an attribute
[Absurd]
public class Foo
{
}
|
|

In C++, I suggest that we expand this as follows:
[[Absurd]]
[[Ludicrous]]
[[Plaid]]
Furthermore, in <type_traits>, we should add:
make_normal<t>::type
make_absurd<t>::type
make_ludicrous<t>::type
make_plaid<t>::type
is_normal<t>::value
is_absurd<t>::value
is_ludicrous<t>::value
is_plaid<t>::value
(Similar to make_signed<t>::type and is_signed<t>::value)
Is anyone volunteering to put it in proper proposal format? 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

I guess we should extend this to the ZSpam and Absurd watch... 
Rules for the FOSW ![ ^]
if(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(_signature))
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + _signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

The problem is that when code with the absurd keyword is run, it throws an event that decrements my _faith_in_humanity counter.

Some people really have worries. Instead of thinking about their tasks at hand, they obscess over how something is written.
The worst is going out of your way to establish style rules. I have seen style rule documents which were honestly more complicated than our tax laws. One million rules, with at least another million exceptions to each. Code reviews were mustly about discussing new rules or exceptions than accomplishing anything productive. What a waste of time.
Paradigms like object orientation or functional programming look at things from different angles. They all have different strengths and weaknesses. It is absolutely subjective which ones suit you best. For example, I hate functional languages. I understand the concept, but having to use them is no pleasure at all for me. On the other hand I can sit there and merrily write down machine code or assembly, full of pointers, memory management, jumps (= GOTOs) and a general lack of abstraction, which apparently very many have extreme problems with. So the level of absurdity in ane language or another is strictly in the eye of the beholder.

It has nothing to do with being smart or not. Every problem may look like a nail to someone who only has a hammer. Owning a tool box does not mean that you are not allowed to have preferences. No matter what they say, no tool in the box is the perfect answer to every problem.

Can we get an outlandish?
outlandish string FooBar {get;set;}

You should not need to create a keyword for the most common state of play (e.g. many languages have unsigned as a modifier but few have signed as most numbers are signed). So, based on the programs that I have seen and virtually all of the ones that I have written, we need a modifier / attribute for the exceptional situations. I, therefore, suggest [NotAbsurd] or, in extreme cases, [Sensible].
This would save having to litter the source with redundant [Absurd] attributes / qualifiers

Axes ???

Correct.
For = PRO
Axes (plural of axis rather than axe) = XY
98.4% of statistics are made up on the spot.

I got PROXY, I got XY - but I didn't tie them together...

Hi All,
Spreading the joy, as I have started a new project. Now comes the hard bit finding something to do as most of the people have run away from it... the hard bit is there is no definition of what it's supposed to do or why. There is a lack of testable stuff, also no mention of what OS is to run on the 104, hence the question last night about M$ embedded. I think it will be some version of Wind River going by previous experience.

PC 104? I liked that architecture even though I didn't have the chance to manhandle it much.
