Hey now, don't make me sad. In my heart I still like to pretend that Discworld will always have more books to read :'(
This feels spectacularly Pratchett-esque. I would not be surprised to see this as the first sentence of a Discworld novel :P
> Part of the message, aside from just quantifying how limited time is, would be to find enjoyment where you can in your 'mandatory' activities too as they'll represent the bulk of your life. I wish I could give this…
The only thing 'unspecified' guarantees you in this context is 'safe to destroy'. It specifically does not guarantee the safety of any other member functions - only the destructor. So either push_back() or pop_back()…
Right, this is what I was alluding to with 'choosing what to feature'. But I honestly am not sure whether a line should be drawn here, and if it should, where it should be drawn. I know that one feels distinctly…
Aren't they different, though? When I go into a grocery store, the deal is, they put out a selection of things, I pick the ones I want, then I go home. This is actively trying to manipulate me personally into buying…
'Ultron is designed with OOP in mind and has not failed to live up to the promise at all possible places.' Would that more professional programmers had this humility. :)
I... definitely did not just watch this play itself for like five straight minutes... I think I need to get more fresh air or something.
Presumably 'developer experience', given how it's used in conjunction with 'user experience' for a developer-focused product :) Admittedly not the most easily understood acronym, and I'm sort of guessing.
I was convinced it would be something about realistic hair simulation and/or rendering. I was surprised, but I was not disappointed.
Not gonna lie, I still can't parse what this is supposed to be after a number of readings. What's the actual sentence? I'm so curious :P
Thank you for posting this, I found it both very enlightening and a pretty fun internet-drama read :D Interesting that the original complaint of that article/thread and this one are both the same - ie. quaternions are…
So I've actually thought about this a fair bit recently, since I'm making some changes to C++ code that touch a lot of files in reasonably straightforward ways. The changes should be possible to merge conflict-free in…
I really really hope this was a joke, because it was incredibly funny if so and terrifying if not.
Shameless plug: At EA we've open-sourced our C++ standard library implementation that focuses on games. While it's not necessarily focused on embedded development, you might be interested in checking it out - it…
This ignores both the fact that RMS is much more than just the maintainer of glibc, and the fact that 'just forking' glibc doesn't stop the maintainer from having a significant amount of public influence. The problem is…
I guess I understand the downvotes here, but I really do think you've hit on at least an issue. Maybe not the issue, but it's a pretty big problem. RMS's conduct here is just... pretty inappropriate. Jokes about…
Not quite. Multiple dispatch (as mentioned in sibling comments) is basically 'virtual on both object and argument types', so like: class Vehicle { virtual void Collide(Vehicle other); } class Car { void Collide(Truck…
I moved from git to perforce when I switched companies, and even though I actually really like git and consider myself reasonably proficient, I don't mind perforce. My one real pain point with it isn't so bad, but I…
Diminuitive of 'nope' :)
I think the relevant quote from the judgment is: 'criminal forfeiture serves no remedial purpose, [and] is designed to punish the offender...' So they don't actually care about compensation, they just have the right and…
And I'm lucky enough to have clicked on the comments first, otherwise I would have been #6.
You might be looking for the term 'SOLID' ;) e: it may be worth noting that I can't for the life of me remember what the I and D stand for... clearly I am much more of a KISS kind of programmer.
I knew I recognized your name from somewhere! Presumably you are the iEchoic of http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/IEchoic_Build_(vs._Ter... fame? :) Never knew you personally but I spent a lot of time lurking on TL…
I've been clicking on your 'hacker news best comments' button for like twenty minutes now... you weren't kidding when you said 'basically a time waster' :P Seriously, really good looking stuff for your early projects!…
