Duh. Also get the "C Answer Book" which makes up for one of K&R's very few flaws (lack of excercise solutions).
>>52447923
The whole point of C having exercises is so you can learn how to do them yourself.
C Answer Book was not written by Kernighan and was simply a shitty cashgrab that defeats the point of the original book.

Well ok if you think so. How about suggesting some book you believe to be a polar opposite of a shitty cashgrab instead?
>Apple’s Board of Directors recently recommended a vote against a shareholder proposal to diversify an overwhelmingly white and male board and senior leadership. This sends a dangerous message of indifference and delusion. It also highlights Apple’s lack of action to back up its rhetoric on a commitment to diversity.
>"Shareholders request that the Board of Directors adopt an accelerated recruitment policy requiring Apple Inc. (the “Company”) to increase the diversity of senior management and its board of directors, two bodies that presently fails to adequately represent diversity (particularly Hispanic, African-American, Native-American and other people of color)."
>That seems very reasonable. It’s not asking for extremes. There’s no calls for replacement or token promotions. They want to evaluate the current diversity plan and develop a better one. That’s it.
>Apple’s response is pure tone deaf corporate speak. It restates their existing commitments to increasing diversity through supporting minority education and women’s organizations. The important part, emphasis mine:
>"This proposal would require the Board to adopt an accelerated recruitment policy for increasing diversity among senior management and the Board. We believe that the proposal is unduly burdensome and not necessary because Apple has demonstrated to shareholders its commitment to inclusion and diversity, which are core values for our company."
>This is absurd. The proposal is not all that burdensome. Apple has certainly demonstrated a commitment, but not action. Action is what I want from Apple.
>This isn’t just bad messaging. This statement from the board is a symptom of an organizational illness to absolve yourself from responsibility and subsequently real action. I can’t submit a shareholder proposal, but I am calling on Apple to set measurable goals and take meaningful and significant action towards diversifying, especially at the top.
Why is this allowed?

Because Apple has done so poorly with white dudes in charge...oh wait, no

nah. 400i has better thd, 30hz square wave, impulse response. the fr can just be eqd more like an hd650 if thats how you want it. and the subbass is good on the hd650 for a dynamic, but still not as good as the 400i. and dynamic subbass isnt nearly as easy to eq. if you want bass, i still say get the 400i over the 650
>>52430194
THD doesn't matter much regarding audibility.
Square wave is a useless metric. So is impulse response.
HD650 matches this LCD-2 at 30Hz.
Planar bass is a meme.
Nice misinformation in your post also.
>>52430194
the 400i has awful circular earcups that will aggravate the shit out of you. The 650s have earcups that are shaped like a human ear.
