snprintf isn't a standard function. There's certain platforms that don't have it. I know, it happened to me on z/Linux.

It is absolutely a solved problem, but printing hex floats into JSON or a CSV isn't going to be great when you need to re-import the data somewhere.

That doesn't solve the lossless encoding of doubles problem.

So what you're saying is that the tooling for Java is more advanced than the tooling for other languages. I'm not sure I see this as a negative. I did node dev for a while, it was horrible, no tools that were any good, got a memor

If you're having trouble with that, I suggest you take a look at CompletableFuture, or ExecutorCompletionService, or any other number of methods to do this in Java. Just like node has it's own lingo, so does Java, and once you lea

It seems incredible to me that the varnish on the wood has a bigger effect on the sound than the shape. It seems counter-intuitive at first, but the more I think about it, the more it seems that the shape of the resonance chamber at the edg

I worked with the people at IBM who did optimization work for Java on Power. The ridiculous amount of work they did was amazing. There's dozens upon dozens of compiler papers and presentations that are more or less power specific. It w

Considering that this is already the case in D, it seems like it might be a good idea. Though who knows how much havoc this will cause in older code bases that are riddled with hacks.

That's almost exactly how it worked at IBM. Plus there was always pressure from management to file patents.

Disappointed it's explicitly not for download, but it's still excellent to be able to have access to all of these.

While you're correct that the example is incorrect, technically speaking there are places where javascript does do dynamic scoping. Namely in a "with" or with "eval".

IBM also has it's own version of this emulator, though obviously not free. I used to work on it, it was great fun. http://www-304.ibm.com/partnerworld/wps/servlet/ContentHandl...

Basically it's when you realize that it's just another bullshit town. (Though personally, I still love Paris.)

How does the "measure with your iPhone" thing work? That seems to be the most error-prone part of the entire process, yet you claim very high accuracy? That would seem to imply that you can somehow get accurate measurements out of

Ascii art is still alive and well. http://tmdc.scene.org/ I've done this compo twice and it's a ton of fun. Plus it's really easy to get started.

The entire series of interviews on the site is very interesting. Nice to see a variety of perspectives on the demoscene.

TYOOL = The year of our lord, he's just being overly dramatic about people using jQuery modals.

If you do your research beforehand, and don't just follow a huge queue of tourists off a bus and into a restaurant, you'll likely have a much better experience.

And that's almost exactly what the macro expands to. It's just some nice syntactic sugar on top.

Many of the libraries you'd want to use are already ported or binary compatible (just need a header file) with D. Given that a fibre-based web framework has been written with it, and that it can use pointers natively, there's not

Having used both, I'd say yes. C++11 does some wonderful things, many many improvements that were a long time coming, but D put those improvements into the core language and their standard library. This makes D much more readable and h

So it's not really the secrets of Swift's speed, it's more like not doing what made Objective-C slow.

Guy is claiming to be a memeber of a legendary group, people are arguing for and against this. I personally couldn't tell you which side is right.

No mention of relative memory usage though. I've been bitten by this kind of thing too many times in node in the past to not wonder about it here. Especially for such core functions.

They said that the video was transmitted repeatedly over the course of the test.

by CountHackulus 12y ago
Wish the videos were more than just screen captures of the terminal, but regardless, this seems really nice and a good way to abstract away some of the boilerplate.

Not to mention their error in claiming that NP problems were unsolvable.

That was an excellent writeup. Just want to say thank you. Somewhat hilariously, this is somewhat similar to some COBOL functionality I've seen.

The slider demo is broken, if you slide fast enough the drawing breaks down on the edges and clips wrong. Sadly it's about par for the course of what I've seen of famo.us. On the surface seems nice, but all the edge cases are miss

Which happens all the time already with english programming languages. "or" does not mean the same thing in most programming languages that it does in English.
