A man bragged on tape about sexually assaulting women and was elected president of the USA. His lawyer was filmed trying to take of his pants on a bed in a hotel room with a woman he believed was an underage girl and nothing happened.

I like to imagine the situation of a tax collector in ancient Mesopotamia, going around and asking the farmers how many animals they have. If the farmer has 5 cows, they have a number of cows that you can put in a form on a clay tablet. If

Strangely this appears to be a new implementation not based on MuPDF, so Artifex now has two implementations of a PDF interpreter. I wonder what made them decide to reimplement it instead of reusing their existing code.

Disassembled code from a C or C++ compiler is generally better structured than hand written assembly. I reverse engineered major parts of Westwood’s Blade Runner for ScummVM. It was compiled with the Borland C++ compiler in 1997 and a lot o

PPM P6 is also what I use all the time - I usually have to convert from paletted format to RGB first. A PPM paletted format would save me a lot of space. The built-in support for PPM in Preview on Mac OS X makes it extremely useful.
