You aren't still growing, so the binge drinking can't mess up your development processes. You have more body mass, so a given amount of alcohol will cause less of an increase in your BAC.

The extradition treaty between the US and the UK would seem to be bizarre as hell. On the one hand, a person who hacks into US government computer systems isn't extradited, and on the other hand a minor and specious copyright violation doe

While Forth is certainly a mind-expanding experience, I still feel that it suffers a bit from "Stackholm syndrome" when I see advice like that contained on page 144, under the section "An alternative to screens: source in named files":

I would absolutely love to read this article, however there seems to be a login barrier that precludes my doing so. Can anyone paste the article text?

No they don't. Degradation of lithium-ion batteries is a function of temperature, time since manufacture and charge level rather than charge/discharge cycles. If you keep the battery cool and don't discharge it below 20% or so, it will la

"I think an often overlooked idea is that spec work is similar to internship. For little to no pay, you gain experience and a portfolio piece. I definitely don’t see anyone calling that exploitation. Yet being an intern lasts much longer."

Function objects are not 'functor's. Please do not call them that. Functor is a word that has a specific meaning in category theory that winds up being relevant in some other programming languages (Haskell, ML and friends) and we don't nee

"First of all, with any piece of technology, you should, y’know, RTFM. EVERY company out there selling software solutions is going to exaggerate how awesome it is." Ah, but it isn't the company that's exaggerating the wonders of MongoDB..

You're inferring incorrectly (and seem to be conflating Mr. Dominus with Mr. da Silva), and also brought Charlie Sheen up for no apparent reason. Also, there are plenty of good things that come with a language being popular. The availabili

I think you're agonizingly close to the point the author is quoting Peter da Silva as trying to make in your last paragraph here. Roughly sketched - 1) text and file processing are very common tasks 2) Lisp is not especially suited at thes

I think you yourself have missed the point when you say, "Common Lisp is a general purpose programming language that doesn't have the luxury of dedicating syntax to text-munging the way AWK does". The whole idea was to make a dialect that

Is security(8) setuid? perl does a number of things to make setuid Perl scripts more secure than either setuid schell scripts or C programs (cf. taint mode).

The last time I used a Keil IDE and compiler (~2007), their linker died if a filename had spaces in it, among many other issues. I was vastly more productive munging the Keil headers with a Perl script to work with SDCC than using the Keil

I'm kind of bummed that most of these are thoroughly broken in Opera, and I wonder whether it's the CSS that's broken or whether Presto is rendering them wrong.

I don't know about recipe books, but for a general introduction I've found Conrad Barski's _Land of Lisp_ to be very good and loads of fun, although the commentary gets a little triumphalist at times. You can grab it through NoStarch or Am

I am curious what you found superior in the Ruby object model compared to CLOS. From those familiar with both Ruby and CLOS (or Moose), I've always heard that the latter is more powerful and more convenient, and (although intermediate at b

Oftentimes, it is easy to overlook whether that real-world overhead affects the asymptotic performance of your algorithm in either an ideal sense or a pragmatic one. If memory allocation were free or memory were infinite, true constant tim

The point of this article seems to be that, since Android users are much less likely to submit to price gouging for wifi in airports and on planes, the platform is ultimately doomed. This seems highly suspect to me. The platform has a dif

No one should use GoDaddy, ever; there are many other registrars in their price range that don't share their onerous practices with regards to transfer, takedown, security and privacy and which have much better customer service.

I don't think Google wants to follow Sun's example of developing amazing tech and going out of business anyways because the folks in charge don't know how to run a business. Not that non-assertion of patents was necessarily a contributing f

I would tend to say that MongoDB is the new MySQL in a different way - it's the default not-really-suitable hammer that the current generation of amateur software carpenters are using to turn every problem into a nail. It's not super elega
