The author appears to care about performance. That is why I'm surprised to see the choice of switching to level-triggered interrupts instead of edge-triggered. This really defeats one of the most important performance improvements of e

> I'm not much for using SQLite but using mmap() is a no-brainer for fast file access and I'm surprised they hadn't used it before. I mean, its trivial to use if you know how to use fopen()... mmap() is great for reads, but much tougher

This is expecting a pointer. A NULL sentinel attribute should be set to catch this (if you are using GCC). And GCC does catch this exact error. void blah(int a, ...) __attribute__((sentinel)); blah(123, 0); will cause gcc to spew "warning

it seems to be occasionally drawing staff lines on partial values to where the aliasing falls half-alpha on two pixel boundries. probably just need to drop the precision of the y.

I've been working on this for a little while, and it is still very much a toy. But it's good to get early feedback so I don't start running in the wrong direction. It's been a fun hobby project to hack on after work. https://github.com/che

Use pdb2mdb to convert your symbols from the .net to mono format. Place the .mdb's alongside your dll/exe. Then you will get files and line numbers.

i think the important thing to look at here is the change to allow users to own and control their own data. i see that as inevitable. now whether that takes 1, 5, 10, or 20 years for consumers to demand, only time will tell.

right, i used the wrong article. "a" instead of "the". point being, metacity/gtk-window-decorator by default use "a" bold font for the title bar and therefore is either a) not finished b) not it.

Interestingly, they have the OpenBSD version that does word-size assignments in asm for x86/arm. wonder why it wasn't being used. http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/bionic.git;a=blob;... http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/

I love the g_test_* stuff in libglib. It can handle various types of tests (slow, fast, perf, etc). Runs them in sub processes. Generates reports. Easy to use. I also love the assertion helpers included for easy readability of the error
