The big dispatcher switch in Flux is eerily reminiscent of how we used to program AWT widgets back in Java 1.0 days. This architecture was improved greatly in Java 1.1 with a delegation model. If the history is to repeat itself, as the OP s

I know and the money is not the issue, it is the wasted time and trust. It is like getting a new iPhone with a broken glass. So, for one guy to feel good, 100K others (customers) now feel bad. And you know as well as me that only a small pe

Ouch, I know that when you see someone has already created a product that you are working on you should take it as a validation of your idea and not become discouraged. However, seeing this I can't help feeling bad for the OP. The OP h

On virtual memory systems, it is a safe bet that malloc will "never" fail to return a value. It is just good form to check the return value of system calls. If you program for embedded systems (e.g. Arduino) and bring over the bad

This so called "investigation" of the Facebook app can be done much simpler. Locate the app in iTunes, rename the .ipa file to .zip, unzip and run otool and nm on the binary. The author list 18,000 header files which is not much o

The concentration technique (attention deconcentration) mentioned in the article sounds very interesting. Anyone know more or have tried it? Edit: Could be a useful technique when free-diving into a code base. Apropos diving, another concep

Awesome would be something outside the box or rather, outside the function scope. Of course, using longjmp is not much more novel today than using this approach which is tried and ugly. I find that a mix of classic return tests and longjmp

So do you have an example of a PEG parser that uses these so called memorisation optimisation techniques then?

I was and also when scanning/lexing. My limited PEG parsing experience is with peg/leg by http://piumarta.com/software/peg/ and http://pegjs.majda.cz which is a Javascript PEG parser. Both ve

Another issue is that it uses at least the same memory as the the input. Not that I'm a PEG expert, but it also basically feels like a formalised recursive decent parser. Nothing wrong with that, but changing the grammar afterwards can
