There are naturally lots of edge cases when you parse a format, because you have to constrain the combination of all the different fields. Some formats are simple and the fields don't interact with each other at all, some are complex a

I'd like your opinion on the MGLRU code they just merged in the kernel. It's a self contained piece of code, you can look at it and print it on paper. Or the folio patchset. People had a variety of reactions to it, whole lot of en

You'd expect people who are much more productive than average, if they exist, to be relatively rare. So it's understandably not necessarily easy to round up a population of them and do a comparative study. But even without a study

Progress is good, we should indeed recognize that things have improved, and you're right to say it. But complacency is the enemy of progress. As long as there are valid reasons to complain, then people should keep constructively pointi

The point is that the question 'since what' is a misleading intuition, it's not at all essential or implied. You want to know how long something takes. You take a timestamp before and one after. A timestamp since what? Well,

That's not exactly right. I don't live in UTC, when I use timestamps they don't automatically (whether implicitly or explicitly) refer to UTC. A Unix timestamp is a difference in time, not a time point. It's a number of

Hmm, on that 2004 Wikipedia page it lists the atomic weight of carbon as 12.0107, and the one link in the reference section (Los Alamos National Laboratory) lists it as 12.011. That's the correct number for the molar mass of carbon, as

Upgrading to C++14 - a minor release compared to C++11 and C++17 - caused a weeksworth of weird, nontrivial linking errors. Do you think that's an unavoidable law, or is it something accidental that could have gone better? Would you sa
