I thought his second name was Goebbles?
I have a similar tendency. I doesn't really work for me to write code and listen to lyrics so EDM and grindcore, like carcass, works for me. Either there are few words or you can understand them.
I think this fits well with Phish's isolated monoculture. I also started listening to Phish in the early 90s and have only seen 30 shows or so. Every time I go to a run it is very comfortable. There have been times I…
We have standards, called laws, for how we use shared resources. The fine is about $60/day. Feels low to me to be honest. The actions described could have easily contributed to death via disruption of emergency services.
Comp.souces.games was a source of delight and pain as I learned how to port software from sizeof(int) == sizeof(void *) architectures.

Kind of interesting. You can google map yourself to within a few 100 meters of the thing. I suspect the people who "found it" were really just pimping it? If there isn't already there will be trash around it soon.…
I came at this the other way. KnR was my first real book about programming. Next were Bentley. Most O'Reilly and like books are overly wordy and don't get to the meat of the issue for me. I don't think KnR will make you…
Two answers. Some embedded envs I've worked in there isn't a argc/argv/envp. In the Unix envs I've worked in it also takes envp. I think I've use that 3 times in the roughly 25 years I mostly wrote c.
You have this backwards. Being mean doesn't scale. A small number of mean people can poison a large part of the community. That drives off future contributors at a high rate. Being reasonable does scale. When somebody…
I have goats and like them. "sweet fermenting odor": This person has never been around a billy goat. They stink and it sticks around. I like goats as farm pets. They can be a bit, well, goatly in butting and biting.…
I think while this article doesn't really prove its thesis very well there is a kernel of an idea here which is useful to investigate. That is the idea that line by line stepping is a crutch that weakens the programmer.…
The title of this needs to be changed go "A brief history of why artists are no longer making a living recording music". Live music is still huge and there are great musicians who make the majority of their income…
Interesting this article never said "poorly architected". The conclusion that the issue is peanut buttered points at that. Instead of looking into the system for things to optimize is there any proposal or initiative to…
Ditto. Too little, too late.
My Barlow story starts with reading the first issue of the EFFector. Being a Deadhead I was also aware of John as Bob Weir's song writing partner. Reading a CACM column by Bob during a set break prompted an email…
This is not about comparing values. "is" compares address (memory location) and == compares value. While the same address implies the same value (for integers; see Naan for fun counterexample otherwise) the same value…
