I don't think you can expect a daily practice to have "an equivalent effect" to a 60-day retreat. I know there are 10-day retreats for vipassana meditation just about everywhere in the world (probably for many other types of

It is ambiguous only if you think it can be a completely useless format. If you decide to use it, chances are you considered it useful, and the only useful way this can parse is as a number, otherwise it would't be able to represent nu

Only quoteless strings have no escapes, and according to the docs the rule is: > quoteless strings include everything up to the end of the > line, excluding trailing whitespace. (edit: formatting)

I use them extensively for test cases (`cases := []struct{...} { ... }`) as mentioned in the slides. Also sometimes to marshal/unmarshal one-off json or xml payloads.

May I kindly ask for Google Music support too, I use it and would love such a service. I was with rdio before, and getting notifications of new releases for artists in my library is what I miss the most.

I agree to some extent, but I wanted to make clear that this book is not about implementing AES or SHA algorithms. It's about using them (the author actually makes that very clear, the algorithms are treated as black boxes). Yes you ca
