Why, that's easy. Spot the odd one out:

"How can I use tmpnam_r() safely?"
->  ARGGGA!!! No ANSI-C! Kill the  Heretic!

"How can I extract the individual bytes from a long?"
-> ARGGGA!!! Compiler specific! Kill the  Heretic!

"Can you tell me about the power transport problem for producing
 fertilizer using atmospheric nitrogen and Norwegian water-powered
 generators?" 
-> Why, of course. Most chemical processes use DC...

"Why does gcc -ansi enable trigraphs?"
-> ARGGGA!!! Compiler specific! Kill the  Heretic!

"Can you comment on this program?"
void main()
{
  printf("Hello World!\n");
}
-> ARGGGA!!! No ANSI-C! Kill the  Heretic!

Bye,
