For anyone unable or unwilling to access that domain name for work purposes or filtering purposes, the linked page lists this alternative: http://goshdarnfunctionpointers.com/

Thanks! Unfortunately, the page currently uses Hover's "stealth redirect" which embeds the profane URL in an iframe. So, if the profane URL is actually blocked by content filtering, you probably still won't be able to access it.

I'm actively working on the page. Once it stabilizes, I'll consider mirroring a sanitized version instead of using the "stealth redirect".

Unable to access this site due to the profanity in the URL?

http://goshdarnfunctionpointers.com is a more work-friendly mirror.

which states:

which is a possibly an offending link to itself. But, there is also possibly the more benignly named:

http://functionpointers.com/

Even the last one is blocked for me. Luckily there is only one IT guy for the entire company and he will generally whitelist anything you ask for.

Not to infringe on your free speech, but you could save yourself some time and do your potential readers a favor if you just fucking didn't swear in your domain name. :)

Wait, what type of fucked up world do people exist in where a website is blocked due to the word "fuck".

Why did you post an empty comment?

Shitty corporate ones. I used to work at a place that filtered the content too, so this page would be blocked by your post.

You don't think perhaps a filter might assume that a website whose URL contains "fuck" might have something to do with porn?
