How do you propose this would work? Its a very vague suggestion and to me it conjures the idea of something like wikipedia or stack overflow, not a news feed...

C libraries do not conform to the standard.

thats not even close to reasoning imo, its just an assertion. ... but i agree that the code is safer if you check for bad cases. i can't see why allocating zero ever is more sensible than not doing it at all (and therefore avoiding eve

apple customers spend more money. android customers are cheapskates... this is old news, but the scale of it and having some measurements from others to back it up is nice.

but what about the health benefits? isn't that the real bottom line we care about? not something arbitrary and meaningless like whether people completely stop smoking? isn't reducing smoking a good thing too? it does need some reg

erm... allocating zero was never a good idea. it had varying behaviours on varying platforms for as long as i could remember and was one of those special cases to avoid. the allocators didn't necessary even meet the alignment specifica

thats not entirely what i was getting at... but i take the criticism. i don't know very much. mainly because of all the hype putting me off...

those three points in the bullet list near the start all seem to miss the mark for me.

"over-hyped gimmicky thing trendy with hipsters out-of-touch with reality starts to fail over short period of time" not surprised one bit. i echo the sentiment of other commenters who give other examples. this is only surprising i

its always mystified me why there are not more standardised, simple things. when i load an image i want width, height and rgba in a buffer. complicated extras shouldn't be necessary to load an image. this is why i use stb_image.c - eve

i think encourage was the wrong word. i can still see it being useful, like i said. well done for making something and sharing it like this.

hard disks are cheap. they are not the expensive part of this at all...

by jheriko 11y ago
ok, that makes some sense. it can be hard to find resources if you are looking for tutorials, examples or guides rather than specifications... not just for this but in general. the trick imo is to learn not to require those things... which

sure, they mention in the article that they have photos, but the message i got from the article is that having the cameras be real would somehow be of benefit because they help you track down the criminals. to me, it seems very doubtful tha

its kind of sad. i'd rather there was a promise that the footage was kept indefinitely, but never watched unless there was a police warrant. that sounds much more useful...

many cameras /everywhere/ are 'decoys' although often through lack of maintenance and being broken rather than intentionally. as much as they are being a security hole, they are also a cheap deterrent. i'd rather we

i used the slash to express that it was an option. not to explicitly state "american".

why? i want to express my disdain at the patent system, and the sentiment reflected in the article. this is what those kinds of words are for. people are free to downvote if they are unhappy with that.

well, it seems not very useful if you are doing a discrete piece of work because you have one short comment to make, not a list... maybe encourage is the wrong word, but it seems like a useless tool if you are doing things in (what i percei

doesn't this encourage the bad practice of doing large commits containing multiple things instead of independent and discrete changes? i guess its still very useful if you are working somewhere where that bad practice is enforced.

The things I find much more interesting is why we expect the opposite, and the nature of the political mess that stops us from using the best clean energy solution we have. I'm convinced the only real problem here is keeping people hap

a video would be cool. nobody is going to bother to get the code and build it, especially in the state its in. i'm not really sure what this proves beyond the power of the hardware. there are no clever tricks here that i can see beyond

make me wonder if anyone has ever made an actual game out of game-of-life? good work. the gradually fading trails are a nice touch. clever 'abuse' of the rgb channels being independent. :)

its important to remember that path tracing for photorealism is considerably more expensive than raytracing. its like raytracing every pixel hundreds, thousands or even more times, and doing some extra work on-top.

i guess the dane cook point is another criticism i missed, i just watched a stand up by him. nothing was funny at all... it was like watching a friend having a rant. at least compared to guys like chris rock, bill hicks, george carlin, rich
