Good catch! And even if we do add another "%c" to fix it, I don't know why we would need to null-terminate a null-terminated string.

The blog post makes interesting points but it's just an argument without data. Studies like this one[1] seem to show that skipping breakfast and eating late do correlate with negative outcomes. [1]: http://www.forbes.com&#x2

That was fun to read. Why do you need a terminating null (juz)?

`set -o vi` allows us to use `vi` bindings instead of the default `emacs` bindings. The way to think about it is that the prompt starts out in `vi insert mode` so whatever we type in will just be inserted at the prompt. However, we can hit

I am not sure exactly how github is set up but there is a simple way of limiting the impact of duplicate files: use hardlinks. `git clone` uses hardlinks when possible so if the fork is on the same filesystem, it should limit duplication au

I would remove the 'etc' and expand the copy. Maybe add some bullet points and images. As it stands, it looks a bit unprofessional, so I would be wary of providing my email. HTH.

Isn't it effectively thread-per-socket except that the switches now only happen on an async system call? The difference, I guess, is you can optimize the context switch to be very small (and have smaller thread stacks) at the cost of g

Your approach looks very interesting - the examples are definitely much easier to read and understand over most async C code I have seen. How does it work internally?
