High carbohydrate diets can over time lead to insulin resistance which can lead to type 2 diabetes. Soylent has 225 net (total minus fiber) grams of carbohydrates, 15 grams of fat, and 114 grams of protein in your daily serving. 225 is high

Pointers would be an exception, of course. As others wrote he's talking about general data. Just because 64-bit ints are faster on 64-bit processors than on 32-bit processors doesn't mean you should use them when a 32-bit int woul

Nice to see them closing those <uint32_t> tags. C++ users always forget to close their tags.

It's a shame it's not a truly native app. Input response is very sluggish even on my LG G2 (high-end phone with a Snapdragon 800).

I appreciate the Futurama reference but it is true. Nuclear "waste" is extremely valuable for use in upcoming reactor designs like MSRs that burn up significantly more of the long-lived waste. Keeping it stored temporarily until t

It was always my understanding that Tamiflu was more for people for whom contracting influenza was life threatening. Not for regular people to experience a shorter flu. This report is pretty damning, regardless.

Carmack also had to hound Abrash to come work for Id for over a year after finally meeting him in person (Carmack had long respected Abrash for his articles). http://www.jagregory.com/abrash-black-book/#foreword

Carmack and Abrash working together again. I almost feel like Oculus should institute the same policy the Secret Service does with respect to the President and Vice President being in the same room together. Too dangerous to lose them both.

No, D2 was first released in 2007. It wasn't a completely new language written from scratch though. It was D1 with the addition of features that broke backward compatibility.

By that I meant it is in the same league as the fastest regular expression engines in the world. I should have worded that better. It comes out around the same performance as V8's and Boost Xpressive.

If you enjoyed that you should pick up The D Programming Language by Andrei. It's a good read. Metaprogramming with D is a dream compared to C++ so some of the techniques in Modern C++ Design aren't even necessary. http:/&#x

A new run to fix mistakes would be nice but I don't think the publisher would jump at that since there isn't much motivation for current owners of the book to buy a version that is largely the same but with typos and other mistake

I don't think the language has really changed enough to warrant a new version of The D Programming Language[1]. I highly recommend reading Andrei's book even for people who have no intention of actually using D. It's just a r
