The Robert Sedgewick book. It is an excellent book. All the cool kids have a red one. Mine was blueish purple and in pascal. LOL, I'll never get a job at Google.

I wonder if the i7 8650 is a similar homage to the VAX?

Same, in an interview a few months I got a graph one which I did OK in. Then I got asked to write an algorithm to determine if it is acyclic on not. I could remember the visitation flag but I could not remember, of the top of my head, which

Actually a bomb is something that is programmed to detonate intentionally under certain conditions. There are plenty of other similarly energetic chemicals around the house, like gas in cylinders. The problem with some batteries is, unlike

If you have some spare time, definitely check out the archived 'Talk' pages. There are some real belly laugh generating gems in there!

I believe he is taking about the native retuning semantics, which is in a real register for simple types or organised to be on the stack by the caller or register frame for a larger value type. Point being, it's a compact primitive ref

This is not really true of any mature system. There are many reasons to design a schema in normal form, including performance, maintainability and space optimisation. Database design outside start-ups is a fairly mature area and normal form

You are mistaken. Lane assist is not the same level as available in a Tesla. No European car has or has ever had the higher autonomous level than the late model Tesla has. https://medium.com/iotforall/the-5-autonomous-d

To save some time watching the vid. It's 'because the Illuminati or something'. It is a great little sketch and does illustrate the major objection to the OP's essay.

The key is, if the 'product owner' is not the end user, they are not the customer. They are often beholden to the more senior management and are more focussed on making their bosses happy with progress reports and demonstating how

It is particularly annoying if they introduced a serious bug, ie datagrip not refreshing queries, in the version you got when you purchased it, the one after the trial that worked. Then, a year later you get downgraded to a version that is

This one trips up every podcast host and blogger. It is not a global object, it just pretends to be with some wrapper magic. Like an attribute method it is not a simple variable.

This also happens in practice because the super experienced 10x guy has not balanced a RB tree or some similarly 100% solved std library algo in practice for 20 years and won't even get the job. The young 1X guy just got of uni and had

I know when not, when the decompression needs to be done in an interrupt routine. I just did a "run or delta" system for GCODE. Being decoded in a micro-controller interrupt routine I could not quite the dictionary based routines

I am not sure awarding someone a prize 20 years after their work like the Nobel, would achieve the goal of 'encouragement'. It may be ageist due to that goal but that was the intent of Fields.

I can trust my boss to a reasonable degree as it is a two way relationship. I trust my peers as it is a more even two way relationship. There is mutual respect for skills and knowledge in both those cases. The world would be pretty negative

I replaced it with saltstack. I had so many things not working I thought it was me just being dumb or not spending enough time learning to use it. A few salt states on the end of a git hook did everything, auto deployment, testing, staging,

ASN was invented for this 30 years ago. Runs like protobuffers are just re-inventing it. Arbitrary sized numbers were in there from the start.

Sybase was good, ran on Unix and did not cost the earth and had more transparent pricing, as opposed to Oracle. Back in the late 90s some trading systems used Informix but the big exchanges I worked on always chose Sybase over our internal

I tried to hire through them recently. It was a joke of a process. More like the way uaed cars are sold. Don't contact us, we'll contact you. No price displayed, we negotiate that depending on how much you can afford. The sign up

Yes the standard is about a process, but it's a process to meet specifications. The process is followed to repeatably meet them.

Why not just go for an ISO standard definition, like 9000 or 9001? It means to meet specifications. Specifications specify sold gold and it is solid, then it is quality. If it is gold plate then it is not.
