GoF DP have failed to deliver their premises. They are not language agnostic. They are useful for education and to help communication when speaking about code. They have never helped me to develop code. Sometimes, my code contains a DP or a

You have completely failed to convince us that ANSI C was inadequate. C is an excellent language that seems adapted for the kind of tasks you have described. With the short description of the task (except the language requirement), I would

Comments are dimmed because half of the time, they are commented code and half of the other half, they are useless or wrong comments. 3/4 of the time, dim is the good choice. In the article, I have some doubts about the usefulness of the co

Very good article. Using perl instead of shell seems a lot more meaningful after this reading. cat * > ../collection becomes perl -e 'map{open ($f,"<",$_);print <$f>;close($f)}<*>' > ../collection Strangely, it i

Here, we are producing logs of simulation runs that may be needed in the next couple of years. Most of the logs will be destroyed unused. This is a perfect use case for glacier. We do not care about 5 hours recovery time.

Learning a new language requires that you adapt your way of thinking. Idioms are a way to familiarize with the spirit of a language. Starting to teach languages avoiding what makes the language so special is counter productive. As soon as y

"C is not simple to learn, to use or to get good at." The R&K is a very pedagogical book. This is really easy to read. The exercises at the end of chapter are excellent. Even a beginner can reach a very good level in C by studying this

That is exactly what I was thinking when I started reading the link. But in fact I have found only really minor points. I still think there is already far too many beginner material on C.

Migrating from C# to java makes your app platform independent. C# is not platform indenpendent because it is never complete outside windows. The site is an ad without details, but I guess that the translation can not magically map WinForms

These 16bits, UCS, wide char ideas are just plain wrong ! Just use UTF-8 for the files and for communication and 32bits code points internally when needed.
