"Absolute knowledge is absolute power and absolute power corrupts absolutely." This is simply not true, rather a cobbled together bit of psychobabble. Okay... I have absolute knowledge a freight train is coming towards me and I&#x

? I went to Uni in Oz in 1995. We had then the exact system the English just put in place ( called HECS ) Students pay nothing up front... Not a penny. And you pay nothing until you get a job. Even when you have a job the repayment is tiny

I am really sorry to criticize but: My eyes are not good and I find that infographic impossible to read. Something about the red rectangles and the contrast and alignment makes it impossible for me to focus on the text. Would it be better j

I think they have sacrified efficiency for no crushes or stampedes. I don't class it as a 'lie' to quietly favour crowds flowing in a safe manner over the quickest route. They are the experts in what is safe for peak crowds, not some blogge

Thanks exch, that's really decent of you to construct an example. I wonder that if there are multiple threads / goroutines are their callchains also printed ?

If they're as nasty as you say... please don't look at the major contributors to your OSS toolchain. You'll find the $EVIL_COMPANY quite well represented there too.

Well Java doesn't generally segfault either... until you start referencing external libraries ( freetype.dll , serial_comms.dll, swt.lib ) I presume Go ( CGO ) will have to deal with segfaults too, and I'd like to understand what it does.

If I had been at that conference, I would have asked the same question. Thanks for the data point (Yes, fine for production AFAYCT). What does Go do when it segfaults ? Simply saying it has not-yet-segfaulted is but one factor of production

Thanks a lot, this is great. It looks like you have some excellent coverage, that's going to help with the arcane things ( like WinApi ). Some things I struggled with manually that your tool makes a lot easier: http://searchco.de/?q=GetMon

There have been a number of these services over the years. Some have disappeared. I first used one in 2001 to stop recruiters calling me after I had found a job. I use several numbers to put into web forms as well. http://Flextel.com offe

I'd love to use Go to replace some projects I've written in C and Java. I evaluated Go last week (2013-03), but there is no meaningful Eclipse IDE support. goclipse doesn't work half as well as CDT, and not a patch on JDT. I won't move away

As the owner of a sizable 2.5 y/o I agree. Also by the time you cary your Bundles of Love around day-to-day, your arm strength for this type of HCI goes up substantially.
