Good point on the relative friction and availability of libraries. With C++ you rarely have a common platform. The STL, with Boost to extend it, is one; but it stays pretty basic. Qt is another. Glib, with Glibmm/Gtkmm &co is a third on

1.5. Make backups. A periodic wget would be better than nothing, though I don't think it would grab the parts hosted on AWS. e-mail to posterous does backups as a side effect, but you still need to grab Disqus comments using their API.

I think the three volumes will be seen as independent BDIs, because that's the simplest implementation (look at the block device the pages are for, don't attempt to count things at multiple levels). Being too granular isn't a problem, becau

That sounds useful, but not a scientific notion from what you're telling us. Could you start by defining what you mean by clearing the table? Is there any way to compare/contrast it to what sleep does?

This one is more method than concept, but it's pretty central to science: It's okay to change your mind. Knowledge is based on facts devoid of moral value, and some of these facts will be replaced as we learn more about reality. A body of k

You're listening for two file descriptor events, so you need some sort of event loop. select can do it but it's low-level; and since there can be only one event loop per program, your choices are frameworks and not simply libraries. Here's

Python can't become static with optional invokedynamic; static typing has to be built from the start. For example, the % operator can't be typed. Optional typing I've seen in Perl, and again it seems like boilerplate for no benefit.
