Q: So why doesn't the compiler reorder the members in the structure to optimize memory usage, and execution speed?
A: Some languages actually do that, but C and C++ don't.
And that's because...?
Why? What would have been better?
The only alternative I know about is saving the size of the string, but that comes with its own little set of problems.
ls /etc/p<Alt-*>I rarely use it nowadays tough. I used to use it for stuff like "delete up to the next dot" and the like. But that was until I learned about f and t. :)
c = (k.d.t.r) / 13333337
Where:
c = click
k = keystroke
d = distance in centimeters between the "J" key and mouse
t = area to be clicked in pixels²
r = screen resolution in pixels²I kept thinking "ME, ME, ME" as I read that.
You can always put it in your mouth, and then spit it out.
It sounds very interesting. I've got to try it sometime :).

Greetings, world. We are anonymous.
In this short time lapse, we've heard and saw the panic of Facebook progrmmers. It seems that now they are offering US$ 500 to find errors on their webpage. It is clear that nothing of this is real. They only do this to make the world believe that they have the power, and nothing can be done against them. As we have said before, we are tired of Facebook stealing people's information and selling it to powerful people like pieces of paper. This regime has come to an end.
Facebook will cease to exist.
In November 5th the Facebook Operation will take place succesfully, and nothing will be able to stop it.
We are anonymous, we are legion. We don't forget, we don't forgive. Expect us.

Now that I listen to it carefully, the way they put it sounds pretty weird, to say the least.
