Why has the adoption of alternative SSL software been so low. We have libressl, boringssl, something from Amazon? Very few Linux distributions seem interested in shipping alternative SSL software.

There is pcc which looked like it had a chance for a while. There was at least a lot of excitement from the OpenBSD and NetBSD communities a while ago. I know it was imported but then I think it was removed. Development continues on but at

It is, sort of, but it only shows part of the picture. I'll explain. Yes, TechEmpower will show you some of the fastest servers / frameworks. Maybe you can get close to a million requests per second in some of the native servers d

Spending 3 months on a segfault? In any language even a mediocre programmer you can usually resolve a null reference exception / segfault in a couple of hours at the most. With a complex program and a debugger it could be a minute or s

There have been problems with the 100% beef patty though. Occasionally you'll take a bite and bite into something hard. I've always assumed this is a piece of bone that somehow made it into the patty. This does not happen at other

There's another TI processor that never really took off despite its usage in arcade consoles at the time. The TMS340 http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMS34010 ) series. 32bit in 1987. I assume it was just out of the

I haven't used Visual Studio to compile C in a long long time, but does it support compiling files as C files as well? For example: char ptr = malloc(10); // this is not valid C++ vs char ptr = (char *)malloc(10); /&#

Semi off topic, but are there examples of coroutine usage in any relatively popular open source C or C++ code bases? The only thing that comes to mind is the MAME and MESS code bases (I could be wrong here). We see coroutine articles on HN

Are functions with more than 6 arguments really forbidden on x86-64? How do things like CreateFile or CreateWindow from the Windows API get compiled then?

I have. The project is an event based http server and client. Mostly I work with libevent, redis, and openssl. We don't build our software on Windows so we don't have to worry about the limitations on that platform (non-POSIX most

This is really neat, but I actually wonder if we aren't trying to solve a mostly solved problem. As a C programmer, yes, sometimes you forget to free memory that you've allocated, but then you run valgrind or some other leak check

Impressive. Have you worked with xcb in the past? I think the lack of good tutorials and documentation makes me always choose to start new projects with xlib. How would you compare working with xlib vs xcb?

Two reasons: 1. Visual Studio is not free. Yes there is Visual C++ express but for a while it didn't have C99 support because in general it was only a C++ compiler. I believe C99 support was added with VS2013. 2. It's just really
