I just completed a major cryptographic project overhauling the security at my company. (Re-doing our password hashing and authentication, and the protocol for all our networking and communications.) The password hashing was easy: a portable

If anybody feels like explaining something else that's also puzzling about the Zend engine and PHP arrays; I had a few hours spent the other day on a WTF moment writing a PHP extension in C and querying array zvals. I was doing something fa

I came to this comment thread specifically to point this out, but you beat me to it. It has nothing to do thread safety, and everything to do with atomicity. This is not a single atomic operation, but rather three atomic (and thread-safe) o

# line 36 text.split("#").first This will have trouble with a line like: tweet = "TOML is #awesomesauce" -- # line 43 array = $1.split(",").map {|s| s.strip.gsub(/\"(.*)\"/, '\1')} You should recurse into

When I said split panes in tmux, I meant to put shells, repls, or servers. I also use split panes and tabs within vim for extra buffers.

My single greatest tip to make vim even more amazing is to run it in a tmux session: It makes it super easy to split panes and create new windows for related things you need to do (git stuff, compilation, running tests, running a REPL, etc.

The CtrlP plugin will make opening these files a breeze. If you just trigger it and type palette.cpp, it should be the first match.

Counting .. seems like a terrible way to solve this. Why not do a prefix match between the root of the public folder and File.expand_path(requested_path)?

These are the kinds of things that make me appreciate s-expressions so much more. It's crazy how programming languages like Ruby or C can have ridiculously complex syntax, and LISP can express all of that an then some with just three or fou

The code typing sections is cool, but unfortunately not representative of the way anybody codes. I could probably code up any of these examples much faster in vim than having them dictated to me. Plus, code is not written linearly, it is mo

I have been refusing to recommend my otherwise perfect-fit girlfriend for a position at my company for precisely this reason. You never know what might happen; and while I love her, I know it's best to keep professional and personal lives a

The first example's use case has benefits beyond just shorter code. When writing ruby, I try to code as functionally as possible, and so I built myself a Ruby version of a construct stolen from Lisp, which I use for this exact purpose:

The perfectly round Os in toyota are the giveaways. I got them all correctly, except for MATTEL for which the only difference is the stroke width; and which I ended up flipping a coin for (incorrectly). That said, I did get a degree in grap

One of the things you're doing wrong is that social sharing bar which, besides bring completely tactless, overlaps the content on mobile devices such that reading the article is impossible—even when scrolling due to it being fixed.

In order to be a respected author and build a personality online, I think we'd all be much better off taking the time and care to build our own personal theme and identity. Our blogs are our online identities. Using something like Svbtle ta

Going to parties, drinking alcohol, and wasting time is a form of learning. How to live life, how to make mistakes, and where you're going to fit in in the world is probably one of the most important thing you learn as a teenager.
