The End of America
-
On October 14, Lord Christopher Monckton, a noted climate change skeptic, gave a presentation at Bethel University in St. Paul, MN. In this 4 minute excerpt from his speech, he issues a dire warning to all Americans regarding the United Nations Climate Change Treaty, scheduled to be signed in Copenhagen in December 2009. Lord Monckton served as a policy adviser to Margaret Thatcher. He has repeatedly challenged Al Gore to a debate to which Gore has refused. Monckton sued to stop Gore's film "An Inconvenient Truth" from being shown in British schools due to its inaccuracies. The judge found in-favor of Monckton, ordering 9 serious errors in the film to be corrected. Lord Monckton travels internationally in an attempt to educating the public about the myth of global warming.[^]

I'm reading a book right now called 'the skeptical environmentalists guide to global warming'. Environmentalists HATE this guy because his first book exposed all the lies they tell. Even he is not dumb enough to claim there's no such thing as global warming.

The bloke is a hypocrite, in fact he is a Thatcherite right wing hypocrite. He speaks in support of coal mining at a pro-coal industry rally called "Friends of America" at the expense of environmental "genocide" causing the demise of, for example, the cerulean warbler due almost entirely to mountaintop coal mining. Yet he is quick to object, to the planning authorities, to a planned golfing resort close to his lush Perthshire estate (Scotland) citing concerns about the environmental impact on birds and other flora and fauna. This bloke is also on record by writing "there is only one way to stop AIDS. That is to screen the entire population regularly and to quarantine all carriers of the disease for life. Every member of the population should be blood-tested every month. All those found to be infected with the virus, even if only as carriers, should be isolated compulsorily, immediately, and permanently.". Later he said quarantine just couldn't work.

He's gone all quiet. I guess he'll wait a day or two, then post more ignorant drivel and hope we don't reply.

Yes for a while. Perhaps our Captain should be demoted. Perhaps he is working on understanding the difference between setting and getting [^]. But then, he might just be "treading water" ready to pounce.
I am sure his questions in the programming forums are genuine, he's been talking about wanting to start a project. He said he'd prefer to use C++, but maybe he came to his senses ( I like C++, but I wouldn't choose it without good reason when C# is more productive )

I said I was going to expand my understanding of C# and .NET, and then work on expanding my understanding of C++. As I do this, I will work on projects to help me learn and I will post them on CP and mirror them on my own site. When I get into C++ I will rewrite my C# projects to native C++.

Whatever. I agree with what he said this time.

You have nothing to add in the stupid 'weather control' thread ? I was looking forward to your proof that wars have been waged by controlling weather.

I once wrote a library in C# and moved it to C++. It got so much slower that it was useless, I had to go back a write it from scratch in C++.

Cloud seeding was used in the Vietnam war. The simple fact is that you are a troll who disagrees to disagree and nothing more. Why waste time playing mind games? This really isn't the right context to be playing pointless mind games.

In other words, you're running scared because once again, your drivel has been countered with facts. I get it. I raised plenty of points, I am not surprised that you can't answer any of them, or that you'd pretend to be taking the high moral ground instead of admitting defeat.

The purpose is not to do a quick & dirty conversion but a major redo the C++ way. The basic architecture will be the same though as long as the design is not based on C# or .NET specific paradigms.

Sure - you just tell yourself that. Of course, if your answers to me don't see the light of day, then you can continue to tell yourself that if you'd just posted them, I'd have been speechless at your brilliance. If it seems like I disagree with everything you say, that's only because everything you say is stupid. Weather control ? You go from one statement about a specific type of weather control to suggesting that global warming is real and is being done deliberately to create some sort of fascist state. Then you post a bit later to say it's not real at all. You are deliberately ignorant. You post this drivel here, despite the fact that no-one ever believes it, and then you refuse to discuss it. Why ?

So long as you understand the stuff C# does for you ( in my case, it was passing objects by reference, C++ was doing a copy every time ), then you should find that C++ is about the same speed, or perhaps a little faster. Just more work to get there.

You have to use pointers in C++.

ROTFL - thanks for the tip. I was an MVP in C++ and published in real magazines in C++ many times, I knew C++ better than most when I was using it.
