I got it for one account, not for another one. Must be kind of progressive.
To put it in perspective : there are less than 5 human births per seconds. So if they want to keep their counter greater than that for a long time, they'll probably have to extend their market beyond humans.
You're right but that's still in a very small subset of possible hashing functions because you must produce a 4 bytes hash, which is then hashed again (to the length of the storage array). Of course you don't have as…
Using chosen hash functions in your applications isn't so rare even outside cryptography field. For example I often use hash for storage addressing (ala git). For this kind of thing you need something fast and with…
I think the reasons they don't care more are 1) it mainly affects long time running applications on 32 bits machines. Fact is most production servers are (or should be) on 64 bits 2) most people (me for example) never…
For me it's OK. I hadn't see this before and I feel that a discussion without those who don't like Go would be dangerously poor. Thanks for your contribution.
I'm surprised they're on HN but I have a (geeky) friend who do most of his work on an Android tablet so that his "computer" is always on and ready. That makes a difference when you run more than one time in more than on…
It seems to me that if you can buy Fireworks + Illustrator + Photoshop, the difference of price between a Mac and a PC shouldn't be a problem. Not working on graphics enough to buy those softwares, I'm happy on linux.
Third ? I'm 40. My grandfather, when he was young, even if he did almost no programming, was a leader in the introduction of computing in press in US and later in France.
I'm 40 and I don't know exactly if I started at 9, 10 or 11.
If you want to play, just play with the toy that looks the most fun. Don't plan for the best route, take the most interesting one. There will be enough occasions in your coding life to be serious and not be given a…
And it's self-contained in the sense that when you code you may simply launch it locally : godoc -http=:6060 Of course this will be less needed now that the API are stable but that what really useful those last months,…
I see a lot of very good reasons for Google not to lose time rewriting Chrome in Go, even without thinking about webkit, but do you have a reference to support this "200ms" assumption ? I never observed this in my…
It really depends on your needs and the type of application you're making. For example my applications, apart serving a few static html, css and js files, just answer to JSON or JSONP queries. That can be done in a…
I don't know if I'll be able to go on with that. When I was coding in smalltalk and at the very beginning of java I was happy to use the full power of my speaking language in my programs but I had to give up my accents…
There should be a lot of complementary answers. Here's one. Go is a fun language to make concise server programs that will run with no surprise (no exception hiding bugs), that you will compile without looking for…
Or they can label versions like sun, so that nobody will know for sure if they're using Go 2 or Go 1.2 or Go Enterprise Edition or Go Standard...
I made a few web application servers (mostly for games) and it's been a real pleasure, not to mention that my programs run for months handling millions of queries (mostly json) without the slightest problem. Using the…
You're right : there is a lot of redundancy in my last sentence. But we're speaking about a non-nonsensical sentence describing an inept process...
That's a non converging Monte-Carlo optimization with a constant cost function
I concur about arrays. Each time I make computations in java and I have to either pass offsets and lengths or make arraycopy I regret not to code in Go.
What do you mean ? I you don't use synchronization protection when you access your structures from different threads, you'll have the same inconsistency in your data. Using the explicit Mutex of Go doesn't seem so…
You don't read only your code, but also code from other people. Go make it really easy, in my opinion, to fast decipher foreign code, due to shortness, clarity, and conventions. Convention help you recognize in that…
As a coder who use mainly weekly (and now use godoc locally each time I need the package documentation), I still find it strange not to have links between release, weekly and tip on top of the documentation pages.…
A few comments : - I find that having a common style about source files from different origins (we're in the open source era) and common naming conventions are great for the readability. I can decipher foreign code much…
