Chomsky's political writing is actually backed by tons of data (facts). He is clear about his ideology and does not try to hide it,but facts his quoting are facts.

Yes, asciinema is a wonderful thing I learned about from this blogpost too. And another one from the asciinema.org: lolcat! Command line forever!

The idea of getting rid of GC is very exciting, as GC has a lot of drawbacks. I want to study Carp to see how this was achieved. Incidentally, today I also found Bone Lisp https://github.com/wolfgangj/bone-lisp/blo

Me too. I know peeps who are developing an assimilation system in C++, but that's in development...

Another major advantage over C and C++ is a language level support for multidimensional arrays, i.e. you don't have to reasearch available libs, depend on them, convert between them, etc. I fully understand resistance of scientific com

Lots of good advise here. A job applying bot is a cool idea, though, with NLP and ML stuff I'm sure it can go way beyond simple spamming.

There is plenty of things like that, but it's really off topic.

Yes, I can think of programs that can only be designed and implemented by top 1% of programmers. Regarding "programming is not a [...] thing to waste those precious early years on.", well, this is not something I'd like to ar

Why do you think so? It's a common knowledge early start gives one an advantage in many disciplines: music, ballet, chess. Why are you so sure programming is so different?

I don't think people are making fun of other people here, we are lauhging at a particular software engineering pathology, that's all. There are important lessons in the story of left-pad library to be learned not only by JavaScrip

That's why one should try to make functions pure as much as possible.

To me, the idea of inlining functions that are otherwise called only once is complete garbage. Yes, you reduce number of functions in your program but the program doesn't get easier to read, test, develop and maintain as the functions

Thank you so much for this wonderful stuff!

This is a very good piece of advise, matches my past job seeker's experience really well. I think I got most of my jobs largely thanks to enthusiasm I had for the stuff the companies were doing. It was genuine but I'm sure it coul

As others mentions the tui mode is very nice. Important thing to learn about using gdb is to write your .gdbinit file before running gdb. Write the commands like 'file <your-exe>', 'break <your-src>:<line-numbe

My feeling is they need to come up with something radically new to compete now. No idea what it could be. It'll be interesting to see how this market evolves.

I wrote a clone of Solitaire in Turbo Pascal long time ago. I still remember the satisfaction of coming up with a recursive algo for uncovering safe tiles. The joy of understanding recursion, that was nice, ha ha!

After maybe three years of experience with cmake I must admit its scripting language is just disgusting. Makefile provided a nice, well thought out, simple DSL, with just three concepts: targets, dependencies and actions, and while it didn&
