"Win32" refers to typical classic Windows applications (as opposed to the Win8+ "modern" kind), no matter whether they are 32-bit or 64-bit.

Once upon a time I had an original iPhone and a router that did nor have ipv6, but the App Store worked. So I don’t understand your "ipv4 addresses can’t be reached" part.

On some people's phones IPv4 addresses can't be reached. Their carrier doesn't bother moving IPv4 over a network that doesn't need IPv4. It does translation at the edge, and the iPhone is OK with that.

Apple's requirement is that even though you know your server is definitely 10.20.30.40† on the public network, and you hate IPv6 you must not hard code 10.20.30.40 inside the app and ship that to the App Store.

Once you reluctantly change it to a DNS name ten-twenty-thirty-forty.fuck-off-apple.example that resolves to 10.20.30.40 - Apple allows that.

Because now when your app is used on some IPv6-only carrier network, the carrier goes "ten-twenty-thirty-forty.fuck-off-apple.example ?" and it gets 10.20.30.40 and it says that's an IPv4 address, don't use those around here, and it adds a translator step, it gives the phone an IPv6 address for ten-twenty-thirty-forty.fuck-off-apple.example and the phone connects to that address, which is a translator that connects to 10.20.30.40 on the IPv4 Internet.

This stuff happens all the time and you don't notice. But if Apple allowed app vendors to just scribble IPv4 addresses inside their app software it would break.

“The blocks 192.0.2.0/24 (TEST-NET-1), 198.51.100.0/24 (TEST-NET-2), and 203.0.113.0/24 (TEST-NET-3) are provided for use in documentation.”

Noted, but 10.20.30.40 kinda trips off the tongue.

So did 1.1.1.1, which led to a lot of trouble when it started being widely used.

Unlike 1.1.1.1, 10.20.30.40 is reserved in RFC1918, you mustn't use it on the Network. So I don't have to care

(No I don't use RFC1918 addressing at home; Yes, every machine in my home has public IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses; No that doesn't make it "really easy to break in" because having an address is not the same thing as being accessible)

Why not send these books to Google to convert before burning them?

I bought a book a long time ago that appears to have been printed on a standard IBM 1401 line printer.

Title Compiler construction for digital computers Author David Gries Edition illustrated Publisher Wiley, 1971 Original from the University of California

(I had that book for years, when it first came out. Also my first compiler book.)

Yes, but note that he was using the special upper AND lower-case chain on the 1401, which made it at least vaguely readable.

I wrote my thesis in 1976 on IBM punch cards. I hired a typist to add the equations.

Do you need a comma in your statement?

The Intel 8088 has an 8 bit bus, and 8 bit registers. The size of an integer is 16 bits.

The first fax machine was made using synchronized pendulums and large pieces of paper with black and white rectangles.

$1,000 is way too low - any lobbyist has more than that in his pants for "walking around money." They spend more than that taking a Govt. Official to lunch.

No, they shouldn't be able to pay to get full service back. Paying any sum of money does not come from their pockets, but from taxpayer pockets. They'd pay any price and not care one bit.

I am a non dev. I just tried the recipe provided by leobelle using the files provided in gist.github and it works fine. I had to change "matches" to use "<all_urls>" though. ------------------- Now I get a popup whenever I start Chrome telling me to disable developer mode extensions -- how to get rid of that?
