Basically, it's Bjarne Stroustrup reciting the history of C++, mentioning the principles on which the language stood both back then and now, and also the (technical and social) problems that occurred both back then and now.

1. It is indeed disrespectful to consciously "taking up other people’s time" (the Chinese way) without their consent. 2. The real world works asynchronously. Either if you are a jerk having no regard for other people's time,

"It starts out as fun, a game in pre-school, but then..." For some of us (like me a few other subjects that I remember) the conforming game was never fun. To force someone to wake up and then to sync to an activity program, and th

Actually, nowadays a system of ground stations and high altitudes atmospheric floating balloons can be made to serve the very same purpose. The ground stations would serve for triangulation of balloon's position and those at their turn

To have Python 2 and 3, and then CPython and PyPy and all kind of other similar flavors of the same thing is not really in line with `there should be only one obvious way to do it' don't you think? Do we see something that needs t

The British Government had DMs, that's what they sold trying to keep their currency at fixed rate. You say they should have kept Deutschmarks to sell them later for what? For depreciated sterling pounds? It doesn't make sense, the

As I see it, the western legal system which relies on written analytical laws appears indeed as an "alternative", but western judges do for example make use of judicial precedents too. This system is based on a set of principles t

Aside from the law of nature, I remarked the use of precedents as a co-basis for juridical mediation. Although this is something used all over the world outside Somalia (on a secondary role and usually only in an informal manner), its inter

That ideology was just a tool to prop up a system of occupation. What really happened behind all that was an ongoing russification all over the Soviet Union, effects of which make themselves visible in an outstanding manner today in Georgia

Giving it all up was just the "equalizing" part. Being incriminated, prosecuted and sentenced for having employed in some way other people's work was the real face of the system.

The idea of Ukraine independent of Russia is new. It's pretty safe to say that the entire infrastructure in that country was built under Moscow's supervision. It was inconceivable to even think about a plan of defense against an i

At least for C++ native development, a development tool comparison with Visual Studio is just misplaced. Alex Ionescu, a ReactOS NT kernel developer, in one question at a Montreal conference last year was asked about the operating system&#x

It never stops to amaze me - what does have Europe that other places don't? ...anyway, I'm just glad and thankful to be born in Europe!

"Novena is a 1.2GHz, Freescale quad-core ARM architecture computer" That's a disappointing choice! Why not something more like LEON or OpenRISC?

But it was informing enough for others (like me) less informed than you. Actually I knew about faster perception of time on insects and probably many other sparse details, but this article does its share to provide information in an accessi

I'm surprised to find out that human vision is among the sharpest. I didn't knew humans outperform over other animals with something else other than brain and long-distance running.

Interesting. Reading about tetrachromatic birds and infrared-vision snakes couldn't help but wonder if there is an animal out there with ability to (naturally) sense the whole spectrum. Mantis Shrimp has however, a bee-like compound ey

Your second paragraph said it. The brilliant men don't slave for others, they have their own thing to find or follow.

The composability of vi/vim is not only its power, but its weakness. It's like a non-redundant language in which (almost) everything can be validly interpreted leaving no room for error detection. In vim nearly everything can be i

I don't get this "punishment more primitive than torture" nuance. It may be inconvenient (for people born somewhere outside U.K. to loose an inherited citizenship), but isn't a stretch to call that a "punishment&quo

It's interested to disagree exactly with what you agree and otherwise: - "What problem does it solve?" It gives you freedom, true freedom! You send to whomever you wish and freely receive from anyone anytime from everywhere!

That's how the current estimation of the universe age was made (only it was about the background space temperature of about 4 Kelvin). This time, by measuring magnetic waves they seek to find a (even slight) difference in expanding dir
