From what I've seen though, most of these projects are executable applications, often with a small code base and written by at most a handful of people. I don't think this is the type of code that really benefits from…
As far as I can tell, the JVM GC is (not surprisingly) significantly more mature. The JVM has a concurrent mark-sweep algorithm that works similarly to what's described in this document, but more importantly IMO the…
Can't wait to read the post-mortem about this one.
A few weeks ago I started playing with some AVR (arduino) chips and a box of electronics parts, and it's been way more fun than I thought it would be. There's a certain satisfaction of actually building something…
Crickets are one of the worst insects to breed. It's hard to keep a stable colony, they smell awful, make noise, and constantly jump out and escape. I breed Guyana roaches to feed my pet tarantulas. They are hardy and…
This is already happening. Litecoin is now trading at about $4 per LTC. It is slightly different in that average block generation occurs every 2.5 minutes instead of 10 and the limit is 84M coins, but otherwise it's…
This is exactly what watching The Hobbit in HFR felt like to me. It was something of a cross between a play and a video game. There were some scene that felt more cinematic, but especially scenes without much camera…
How could you possibly claim his post was sexist? There is literally nothing about what he said that is even remotely sexist. Perhaps he's pinning the blame on Mayer because the announcement was written and signed by…
I'm just reading the series for the first time, and the time jumps in the first book really threw me off too. However you should be aware that it mostly stops after the first book. The second book (Foundation and…
