I'm seeing a lot of snarky comments, but the only reason this is being talked about is for the irony. It neither proves nor disproves that a filter is helpful or harmful for child pornography.

So if the internet were a free for all, there wouldn't be child pornography? Your logic here doesn't follow.

This is full on satire.

Sure, but at that point, it's not RAII all the way down. RAII is a great wrapper around new and delete, but I saw people talking about how they rarely use new and delete anymore. Edit: Actually, reading about auto_ptr<> and frie

You can run out of space on the stack, which has a smaller size than the heap, where new'd objects are placed. This can easily happen with large objects that own other large objects and it is difficult to debug without knowledge of th

That doesn't include benefits. Any benefits (such as health insurance) would come out of that. I believe the rule of thumb is to add on 20% of a salary for cost of benefits. So this would be closer to a salary of $165k, plus benefit

I can't follow this essay. I'm not sure how the ex-NSA entrepreneurs ties into transit workers working later because the train schedule was expanded. It reads like a list of unrelated complaints instead of a cohesive argument ag

Very nice. Although I feel I already enter a meditative state when I'm in front of the glowing screen anyways.

Very interesting. Removing human error is maybe overstating the benefit, since you can still introduce bugs in your use of the DSL, but it's very interesting. The writeup is pretty opaque to me, but I'd love to see some librarie

Did you get a response? The author mentions that he wrote to Panasonic and Amazon and was basically brushed off.

“Learn to never be satisfied with the status quo, to constantly expand your understanding of users, audience, products or markets.” This stuck out at me as a great way to never be happy.

goto is common in C and C++ code as a clean way to consolidate cleanup code without using exceptions. I imagine that's the main use case they wanted to preserve.

I like Real World Haskell a lot. The chapters on how to do real work like parsing audio files was fascinating to me. Too many functional language books seem to get hung up on the mechanisms like partials and reducing, but not on how I sho

Erlang is much easier than Haskell. Haskell breaks my mind, but Erlang is easy-peasy.

I think the photo they picked to go with the article subtly undermines it. I wonder if that was deliberate.

That is an idealized description of marriage. In actuality, marriage is a legal document that some people want very much.
