It is not insisting. Vim will happilly let you use the arrow keys. It's just that once you acclimate to "hjkl", it is slightly faster and more comfortable, since you don't need to move right hand anywhere while typing. O

In C it is quite common for functions to indicate failure by returning NULL. Not checking for these errors is another very common reason for segfaults.

I agree it is not really important. The main difference between the two I see is that partial application basically binds a certain argument to a fixed value, while currying only changes the way the function is called (thus allowing for eas

What this article calls currying is actually partial application. Partial application is a technique where you take a function that requires n arguments, pass in the first one and get a function that needs n-1 arguments. Currying is a techn

The given reason for that is that it is a popular game that has no native version (so no one will ask why he is porting Midnight Commander) and it does not use much OS X API. It uses OpenGL, OpenAL, IOKit (for finding input devices), AppKit

Nice summary. However, the comment about first example is slightly inaccurate. Saying the `sayHello` function does not take arguments is wrong. It does, it just does not care about them. You could still call it with arguments like sayHello(

That may be one badly chosen name. However, it is not just the name. In my language, instead of computer science it is called "informatika" (which would translate to informatics [1]), and while that name does not even suggest comp

I would guess he/she meant something along the lines of x * some_really_complicated_expression. If x is 0, you would not need to evaluate the other operand at all. It may even be a faster, but I doubt any compiler does this sort of opt

There actually is at least one try for a project that (wants to) run OS X applications on Linux, but I have no idea how far it is. http://darling.dolezel.info/en/Darling

The SysRq key is not so useless as the article would let you believe. Under Linux, it allows one to send commands to kernel to e.g. reboot the system [1]. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key

The LINQ really is much more succint, but the original code did not set the bar very high. Why should one write a 12 line comparing function when using 'b.value - a.value' would work pretty much the same (unless C# really requires

Is it intentional that the carousel switches so fast that reading the whole text displayed is almost impossible? (It may be due to my not being native English speaker, but it anyway...)

Flex [1], too, uses regular expressions. However, the generated source that performs the actual tokenizing/lexing, does not need any library support for them as it is all implemented in the code. So even there lack of regex support in

Thanks or the link. While I agree it is not really relevant, it reminded me of the kind of articles some mass media produce that are basically along the lines of "scientists discovered [whatever]". Reading those is basically a was
