On modern computers, linked lists are rarely a good option for performance. The overhead of the memory allocator and the non-sequential layout (which results in CPU memory cache misses) means that dynamic arrays are surprisingly faster even for random inserts on very long lists.
Yes, but you can't inspect quality into a product; you have to build it into the product.
Years ago, some American auto executives toured a Toyota factory to learn from them. After the tour, one of them said, "Those sneaky Japanese, they didn't show us their rework area." What he didn't know was that unlike American factories, there was no rework area. Everything was assembled correctly the first time, and any worker had the right to stop the assembly line at any time to fix a problem. It's far easier than finding and fixing a defect that is buried deep in a finished product.
All the personal information you mentioned should be hashed or encrypted. For any given phone number, see how little information they have: just an account creation timestamp and a last access timestamp.
In the current Staging implementation, you pick a username (which you can change), and the app picks a two-digit suffix to your username.
What if a compile job takes a long time? Would that be a good reason to context switch?
No, It's called X now. Elon willed it so, and I'm happy to oblige. Posts are called X-cretions (or X-crement, if they are shitposts).
According to the notice, the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) in the vehicles could leak brake fluid and cause an electrical short over time, which may start a fire while the car is parked or driving.
This particular failure mode could, in theory, happen in both internal-combustion and electric cars.
If there is no bike parking, then just take the bike into the shop with you. If it's a small shop where you can keep your eye on it, leave it near the entrance. If it's a large shop, roll it around with you — it's not much different from a wheelchair. If the management complains, tell them they're being illogical and take your business elsewhere.
In early July, I'm planning to bike from Vancouver, Canada to San Francisco, California. Mostly camping, with a few motel stays to freshen up. I'm hoping to do it in an ambitious timeframe of 9 days, but if it ends up taking 13 days, I'd be fine with that.

Marketing promises effectively constitute a binding unilateral offer, for the purposes of contract law. When a customer signs up, you also have acceptance, consideration, and intention, thus forming a valid contract. Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Company is the classic case in English contract law; the principles are basically the same in the US.
