> The multi-million line makefile is real Of course you quickly get to million-line Makefiles in bigger projects. In C++, if you depend on stuff like Boost, a single file can easily depend on thousands of header files, and every single o

CMake has its own dependency scanner for C/C++. Look for a file 'depend.make' and you'll see the header dependencies that CMake has detected, minus the headers that CMake thinks are system headers.

> and forget to add new header files to the list of headers This is why gcc/clang have the option to generate Makefiles for the header dependencies for you. Maintaining these yourself is a hopeless effort.

You got a good point there. I'm sorry I brought this up.

No, this is not about people like Naomi Wu. She is a maker and she can dress as she likes. The German Maker Faire has actual cosplayers, and some of them have put an enormous amount of time into their costumes and so they fit well into some

At least in Germany, the Maker Faires still seem to be doing fine. They are done by Maker Media GmbH, which is part of Heise Publishing Group (they do the c't and iX magazines). They don't publish numbers on how specifically Maker

Apart from this being essentially an EULA an therefore not necessarily binding in your country, I don't think that doing the stuff described in the OP would violate these terms.

I think you are most definitely correct when you are running Windows on a remote VM, like on an ESX. But I always thought that things would be more lenient when you're running it locally, but I might be mistaken. I'm pretty sure t

Well, I indeed haven't looked inside a dryer, but I am aware that dryers can burn while running . Indeed, as I just learned, they are #1 cause for house fires in Germany, and insurers will usually not pay if you let them run unsupervi

I have a hard time parsing this. Do you mean no more than 1% of the sold product should cause a house fire? Anyway, 75 house fires per year from a certain product is a pretty big number. Comparing this with the total number of house fires i

This is an interesting writeup, but I'd say the groups settling on different algorithms matters much more than the language used. It is obviously a pretty big difference whether you use a recursive descent or an LR parser.

Well, I'd say you're on a machine learning limb there, and "data science" is - at least IMHO - much more than that. As the article says, statisticians usually much prefer R over Python.

He couldn't find a nearest neighbor searcher in Python? There are several in scikit-learn and scipy has cKDTree. Those are really not hard to find.

In Germany we have a German edition of Make:, which is done by Heise Verlag (of c't fame), and they seem to be doing fine (and there is no VC involved). It seems they have licensed the trademark (it was called "c't hardware h

I have the 2204A and can second the recommendation. Really good bang for the buck (120EUR here in Germany, including two probes), very compact and robust. Of course, with 10MHz you shouldn't expect too much, but for looking at low-spee

The autobahn is usually too crowded for driving such high speeds continuously. You constantly have to break for slower cars overtaking trucks or who are simply "idling" on the left lane because they don't want to drive betwee

I find driving on the Autobahn very stressful. The main problem is the width of the speed distribution. You have the trucks on the right lane, often struggling to even reach the required 60 km/h when going uphill, and you have people d

Why "versus"? You use both, of course. And additionally, you use static analyzers like clang-tidy, cppcheck, PVS, you-name-it. And you're still gonna be miles away from Java and Rust w.r.t. safety. Undefined behavior is the

> Make doesn't support such paths That is entirely correct and really the most glaring downside of Make. In my opinion: If you have spaces in your dependency names, just stay away from Make as far as possible.
