How did you get your phones display on your desktop?

Mine was down too. So I looked here to see if it was posted yet. Incredible. I've never seen Google down, but I've seen FB down many times in my life.

Not really. the end user doesn't need autotools installed actually. To build the configure script from the "configure.in" file, you need autotools. Go ahead and try!

sizeof returns size_t, not sure why he's using `long long`, but to be precise it isn't a function, so it doesn't "return" anything. I guess it "yields" size_t.

It's not that hard. I recently had to debug a memcached configure.in script. But, I consider myself a C programmer, so that fact might be source of bias.

Auto tools is great. To compile all you do is ./configure make make install It couldn't be simpler. Even though I am part of the GitHub generation, I don't see why so many of my peers hate it. I actually

I remember trying to explain that checking the file extension of a file doesn't mean that it is actually an "image" file. I was an intern at my first internship, but wasn't taken seriously when I proposed [to the senior

I will be graduating college this year, just a few days after my 26th birthday. Don't worry about age.

Probably he can't talk about it without lawyers first, because remember, Mark isn't a single founder.

No, the Debian Platform. That may be one way of exploiting it.

Don't use stable. Stable doesn't mean what you think it means. It means that, among other things, it doesn't get any major updates to core software.

AND is explicit in the groupings.

Yes. You won't even have to know to code. You'll just press a button that generates the code for you. In the future, all programming jobs will turn into data entry jobs where the programmer will be entering commands into a GUI to

Finally! The term "open source" has become a buzzword. Especially recently by the GitLab guys and their rhetoric. Thanks Stallman. I stand with you. GitHub is another fine example of a company who preaches open source, but doesn&#

I think he means friends as in a group of people you can get trashed with and their is no expectation of "professional" context. Those relationships will be hard to form as you get older.

They are not many C compilers that are widely used in the wild. So, if I had to guess the average C programmer is using either GCC, Microsoft's C Compiler, or Clang.

I don't think it's about when, it's about what you ask. This is based off instinct; I don't have data to back it up. The Ask HN page is small.

Good point. I get as many credit card offers, as I do inquires on LinkedIn for jobs.

I'd bet their terms allow them to impersonate your own friends.

Knowing Zuck, he'll probably lobby to make it illegal to use ad blocking because Ads Make The World A Better Place (tm)

Why do you even empower these people by answering the phone? I never answer when they call.

It has to parse a javascript file, which isn't trivial. The reason they use regular expression is because implementing a javascript parser isn't an easy problem to solve fast, even though the grammar is available.

The AST? What AST is that? You don't get access to an AST.

What was quite ironic for me is that I bought a ".mobi" domain name, because it was the only TLD that I was able to get so it can be $first_name + "." + $tld. - It seems that the .mobi TLD is more confusing than ever for

Yeah I agree. If running it yourself works for you, then by all means, you should do it. For me, I'd rather spend the 4 hours it takes to configure on something else.

I did that for a year on a 10 dollar box with Digital Ocean. In the end, the cost wasn't justified, as I can pay FastMail 120 a year for a lot more than what I was getting with Digital Ocean, and I don't have to worry about mainte
