I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is about probability and Mathematics instead of programming or software development. — Pang 23 secs ago

Yes, this is not the right place to ask. softwarerecs.stackexchange.com is more suitable. — Raptor 8 secs ago

More of a question for softwareengineering.stackexchange.com, and @EugeneSh. stop being such a drama queen. — Sanchke Dellowar 1 min ago

Is one servlet receiving requests from a sensor enough to save data to a nosql database? Well, let's see. You have a container for code. You're getting data into that container. You have the ability to write code that connects to a nosql database and save the data. Sounds like the answer is "yes." — Robert Harvey 2 hours ago

A "data structure," as its name implies, has structure. Your data does not have any initial structure other than packet lengths or delimiters, so it doesn't qualify as a data structure. Look at any other data structure: it is a container for data. What you're describing is just data. If you wrote a class that implemented the protocol you described and exposed the resulting elements as a collection of first-class objects, then you would have a data structure. — Robert Harvey 3 mins ago
 
Or maybe the Software Engineering SE--Code Review's on topic page says, "Conducting code reviews is an important skill, much like any other programming discipline. These "whiteboard"-style questions are best asked on Software Engineering Stack Exchange." — jaggedSpire 54 secs ago

A: Git - Reason to forbid use of GUI Clients other than Git Bash\CMD

greyfadeNo. There is no adequate reason for anyone to unilaterally forbid the use of a Git GUI client.

^^^ typical gitroid answer to typical gitroid question, both useless. What did I learn from the question? That there are managers who forbid GUI clients, wow. What did I learn from answer? That gitroid lemmings are happy to dump their Facebook-style "likes" at opinion they, well, like. Wow

I don't think this question is answerable. An answer would require a mix of opinion, mind reading, and proving that a class of ideas doesn't exist. — jpmc26 9 mins ago
I think that comment covered it pretty well

@RobertHarvey One thing I wanted to share quickly, another neat thing about knowing C and ASM, you can read stuff like the early boot process on Linux; I had quite an interesting time reading about everything that needs to be done to set the computer up to run Linux. This article provides a rather weak introduction, O'Reilly Linux's coverage is far more thorough

here's an excerpt from O Reilly: (After initializing I/O, the BIOS bootstrap) searches for an operating system to boot... as soon as a valid device is found, it copies the contents of that device's first sector into RAM, starting from physical address 0x00007c00, and then jumps into that address to execute the code just loaded. For some reason I find that "Hail Mary" jump in the boot process amusing, it's funny how many cryptic hard coded addresses are involved.
