Most Python programmers switching to Perl an assuming it works the same way is probably true though :P
62.
by pwr22 12y ago
Indeed it looks like it can, but this is still a non-issue if you understand context (a key feature of Perl) and know what foo does
63.
by pwr22 12y ago
Granted, and most people think prototypes are evil for similar reasons. Perl doesn't have the same design goals as something like Python, it will accept inconsistencies and complexity if they're deemed useful I personally like thi

Ah, well thanks for sharing here anyway and good luck in May.

I doubt that 3 miles figure apples to an overweight couch potato
66.
by pwr22 12y ago
Wow, that's a crazy figure (to me anyway). Have you ever written up your experiences anywhere?
67.
by pwr22 12y ago
This is certainly interesting but it doesn't look conclusive

Looks awesome but I hope there is a better naming convention for the quant tables than -quant-table 2 etc

Hope they post a bug report, that doesn't look like an acceptable artefact to me

I switched from ABP to Bluhell Firewall and FF is like a different browser wrt memory
71.
by pwr22 12y ago
And that extension doesn't work if javascript isn't enabled for that page :(
72.
by pwr22 12y ago
I use Bluhell Firewall, it isn't as good as ABP but it is definitely better than nothing and so light
73.
by pwr22 12y ago
This is already shown to be the case with FF, ABP uses a lot of memory per tab

That's because we have a habit of complaining more than praising. The 90% of the time it just works don't get a mention. Thought personally I use an external viewer (SumatraPDF on Windows)

Not necessarily so funny if you have TOC ;)

I'm also wondering if the effect persists

We as a society have forgotten, or not yet learned, that the thing we call "us" is but a part of the organism that is actually us

Looks like typical impulsive defensiveness, doesn't portray him well as a person

I read that latter one as specifically meaning a scarf made out of red head

This guy's mother made a terrible and selfish choice :(, I feel terrible for him

No different than when Google was telling me to upgrade to chrome whenever I visited their sites

In the end I wanted the variable to persist beyond the end of the loop anyway
83.
by pwr22 12y ago
But surely is does buy you extra transistors in practice since the number of core tends to only increase every few years - meaning the additional cores come with new technological advances and are how the new transistors are put to use

Sorry, non-existent keys return a slot but since it isn't allocated it blew up when I was trying to print out its values :(

Not differing types

Technically there is bounds checking ... & (SIZE - 1) but it looks broken because t does the C-ish mutating accumulator thing rather than acting as a base and using h as an offset You need a temporary variable of int (**)[2]

BTRFS has no built in dedup support as of yet but any snapshots made initially share all data which is very fast and lightweight

Whatever ;)

UK is still abysmal :(
