I'm not an expert on this in any way either, but I think template instantiations end up as 'weak symbols' in object files, so when you link multiple objects together that contain the same template instantiations, you only end

Ah yeah, thanks, that makes a bit more sense.

That's interesting. IIRC tsocks doesn't emulate the select-style system call interface that chromium likely uses for its networking. I'm a bit surprised to find that it works with Firefox; I generally prefer to configure prox

True, though with multiple functional units there is some parallelism. Just thought it was an interesting comparison.

That's mostly front-end stuff for using the machines; the actual code running on the custom hardware is generally a lot lower level.

Thanks for adding more information, but that's a perfectly cromulent use of the word they.

I've used SCons for processing audio files recently and it has worked pretty well for me; multiple targets are handled just fine. I did have one percieved speed problem, but this scons calculating file checksums to see if it needed to

Using find with -exec works well and avoids this kind of problem, though that may well be a gnu specific thing.

I'm using cyanogenmod 11 on my galaxy nexus, which still has the email and calendar applications with exchange sync. It looks like contacts sync should work too.

The signing used by pacman (on arch) seems relatively nice, in that individual packages are signed by the maintainer rather than the repository. Whether or not this buys you any extra security, I'm not sure. In reality I don't thi

NetworkManager doesn't relay any error information to the interface at all, but it's log files are quite detailed. At least on systemd based distributions (tested on arch), running journalctl -fu NetworkManager will show yo

I used to feel like this with OpenGL; the ammount of complexity to get my head around was so large that most of it had drained out of my ears between projects. I've been working on something recently using modern OpenGL though, and i&#

For what it's worth, i recieved one of these spams this afternoon, addressed to the unique email address on my github account, and containing the organisation name listed there.

Does it really matter if it's dubstep or not? I happen to quite like whatever that was, but generally dislike most dubstep i've come across. Maybe it would have been better without sound, but calling something "awful" or

To view this kind of thing in vimperator, press insert or shift-esc to ignore all keys. It works quite nicely after that (Firefox on Linux).

I don't know the theory behind this stuff, but here it goes: Headphone jacks tend to have a capacitor in-line with the output terminals to get rid of any DC bias -- this can cause problems like battery drain, lots of noise when you plug hea

Yeah, sorry about that... I totally missed the ' in "f = formula s'" and "f = record s'"! In that case, I would probably turn the whole thing into a case on "unitpropagate s", and get rid of the outer where, but my advice is clearly best ta

As one of my algorithms teachers said, "I don't know how it could have possibly taken four people to come up with DPLL; it's so simple!" Anyway, nice work! A few comments on the Haskell: - Line 16 isn't necessary; that if/then/else is handl

Ah, I meant subtracting the current line number from the target line number to get the number of lines to jump, instead of just guessing.

Now all we need is a gratuitous regular expression to get rid of the extra bits of syntax...
