I am really astonished by the capabilities of static code analysis. The tool surprised me the other day as it turned out to be smarter and more attentive than I am. I found I must be careful when working with static analysis tools. Code reported by the analyzer often looks fine and I'm tempted to discard the warning as a false positive and move on. I fell into this trap and failed to spot bugs...Even I, one of the PVS-Studio developers.
So, appreciate and use static code analyzers! They will help save your time and nerve cells.
[Ed note: I debated running this story as there was an element of self-promotion (aka Bin Spam), but the submitter has been with the site for a while and has posted informative comments. Besides, I know there have been far too many times when I've seen a compiler complain about some section of my code and I'm thinking there is nothing wrong with it — and then I, finally, see my mistake. Anyone have samples of code where you just knew the compiler or static analyzer was wrong, only to find out otherwise? --martyb]

I'm not sure about your compiler, but your interpreter is totally messed up. TMB doesn't suggest you listen to Nazi haters, only that you shall not silence them. You are perfectly free to turn your back and change the channel. The tuner is also called a discriminator. Everybody has one. Always do the filtering at your end.
And really, your cheap shots are so offtopic. I would mod it as such, but I don't like to downmod people. And besides, I think you're just trash talkin' to your buddies, having a bit o' fun, drawin' flies to your steaming heap. And by no means am I complaining. A bit of levity goes a long way in this sad world.

What's a "tuner"?

My god! Was radio that long ago?
But I was mistaken. The discriminator (demodulator) is after the tuner.

And you blame Millennials, when truly, Grandpa, it is your own memory that fails you! Do you remember when blacks knew their place? Do you remember when America was a White nation, with a White President, and a White House with a White Dog? And now all we have is an Orange President, with some ex-Commie Bimbo first Lady, and no dog! Why does the president not have a dog? So, yeah, Nazis are totally cool now, until someone threatens to "punch them in the face!" [youtu.be]

The folks in Boston had the right idea: Outnumber them.
They did so 40,000:50.
The Boston cops felt it was necessary to escort the skinheads out of the area.
Less dramatic results in Frisco, Berkeley, and Chicago back in August, but always well over 10:1 ratios.
At the appearance of white supremacist Richard Spencer at the University of Florida on October 19, the Neo-Nazis screened out people at the door (e.g. people wearing protest T-shirts or with a lawyer's phone number written on their arms).
They ended up with only 456 of the 700 seats occupied. [wsws.org]
Following the event, Spencer supporters directed gunfire into a crowd.
No one was hit.
2 of the perps are being held pending a $1M bond and the shooter is being held on a $3M bond.
