I agree, it's a legitimate question. I tried to search for a bunch of them on TinEye to see if I could find some original source for any of them that might indicate a licence, but none of the ones I tried came up with any results.

I think you're reading it incorrectly. You can have an empty segment in the path. The BNF for a segment is: segment = *pchar Which according to RFC2234 section 3.6 means zero or more repetitions.

Doesn't it just demonstrate that you shouldn't switch from being liberal to being strict? For it to hold up, you need to provide the further argument that you frequently need to switch from liberal to strict.

Persistence is defined in terms of the interface to an abstract data type. When I do a write operation on a data structure, I get a new version back, and all read operations on the old version still return the same values. version1 =

To be clear, what optimization are you proposing? Replacing "JMPNZ true" with "JMP"? So every time a loop is compiled (which by default is every request) there is the added overhead of "if opcode is JMPNZ and the fi
