Wow, switching from Python to Lisp produced a shocking speedup. I liked Lisp in college but I probably never would have considered it nowadays... If I wanted a quick runtime, I probably would have fallen for Go or Julia or, after some mat

Planet Money, probably their second best textbook story: http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2014/11/10/363103753/textbook... (best imo was talking about the whole mess around writing textbooks)

Who wears a gopro in bars and restaurants?? Is it really amazing?

It's not like every washer needs to be removed simultaneously. Just rebuild each component one by one. That said, it's still amazing work. When some friends built a Lemons car (nowhere near as exacting), I was surprised to find

From your snide wording and claimed expertise, I take it you're a professional bean cooker? Was your post just a teaser?

Um, there's a world of difference between Charlie Hebdo and the Westboro Baptist Church. To try to repair your analogy, what if the Westboro Baptist Church were to demonstrate a lot of redeeming qualities like actively opposing right-w

It's not necessary to agree with 100% of a publication to sympathize with one of their positions. It is not necessary to disclaim all their past transgressions (as distasteful as they may be) before supporting them in the wake of this

I can categorically say that you're cherry picking images and omitting context. Basically, trolling. Can you guess what the word "raciste" in that image means?

Exactly right. Recursion is the easiest way to blow up the stack (with alloca a distant second). NASA stacks tend to be small, static, and can produce physical harm when damaged. Why avoid recursion entirely? Because it's too easy

Of course Apple did not "hijack" anything: full screen support has always been strictly opt-in. But apps would feel pressure to adopt the system implementation. This doesn't make much sense, does it? Obviously apps adopt t

Good find. There's some legit vintage hardware there.

Hooooly cow. Surprising that comes from a guy who claims to hate second system syndrome so much.

Meanwhile, everyone wants to rave about OpenStack, a software particle-board designed by committee, consisting of floor sweepings and a lot of toxic glue. Not surprisingly, since it’s not a proper system, few OpenStack deployments exceed

Downvoted because you've been asked for examples 3 times now and you only rant further in response. How is anybody else supposed to know what you mean? Guess correctly? Would you rather puts instead of echo?

Me too, but just wait until your wife is pregnant... Then you're shivering in a ball and she's sweating with the window open.

Plus, with software, if you find you're missing something, you download it. With hardware, you pay through the nose for FedEx and pray that the vendor offers Saturday delivery. Then you sit on your ass until tomorrow afternoon. With

If the patient is flat unwilling to believe the truth then maybe it's not such a bad idea? There isn't much of a line between deception and placebo.

I didn't quite get why a vortex isn't a wave... She said something about how a wave is a transfer of energy but not matter, but this seems incomplete. Obviously matter is transferring while the wave is passing. I guess the techni

Absolutely correct, the OP is delusional. Replying because the HN up/downvote buttons are too damn close together.

True, v2->v3 was hard due to escaping-by-default, but that was a long time ago. v3 to v4 was trivial and v4 to v5 looks to be similarly easy. Also, I find business logic sql libs written by typical devs tend to be unreadable and much bu

We're not? It sounds like we are... If the project that you're using and need source for is GPLv2, and the code you want to use is GPLv3, then you cannot use it (and it might not be good idea to even look at it -- depends on how
