You shoot yourself in a tuple containing your foot, boot and sock.

Cannot implicitly convert expression (map(shoot(foot))) of type MapResult to std.ouch.InputRange!limb

You create the bullet in your foot for efficiency (CTFE).

You shoot yourself in the foot, but it doesn't matter, it was allocated on the stack.

When you try shooting at your foot with your AK-47, you realize the GC has blown it already.

You unregister your feet from the runtime in order to move smoothly, wander in front of a bullet that's paused by the GC, which then un-pauses and hits you in the foot.

This is the best one so far! This is typical D: circumvent safety to enable you to shoot yourself in the foot.

Or... the bullet stops midair, waiting for the GC to finish a collection cycle (probably for a lollipop created in another thread).

Wow. I've just said almost the same thing before reading this one. :)

Ali

as i just happened to have me mutilated, i couldn't resist (even though the example 'works' only with DMD-m64 bullets):


being forced to share your foot among parallel universes, it will surely find a stray bullet in one of them.


can you guess which toe is going to be blown off?

'''
version(DigitalMars)version(D_LP64){
	import std.stdio	: writeln;
	import core.atomic	: atomicOp;

	ulong toe0 = 2;
	shared ulong toe1 = 2;
	shared ulong toe2 = 2;
	shared ulong toe3 = 2;
	uint bullet1 = 1;
	int bullet2 = 1;
	ulong bullet3 = 1;

	toe0 -= 1;
	writeln( "toe0: ", toe0 );

	atomicOp!"-="( toe1, bullet1 );
	writeln( "toe1: ", toe1 );
	
	atomicOp!"-="( toe2, bullet2 );
	writeln( "toe2: ", toe2 );

	atomicOp!"-="( toe3, bullet3 );
	writeln( "toe3: ", toe3 );
}
