That's interesting. Have you linked dynamically? Maybe the author is talking about a statically linked binary, since he uses terms like "bare metal" and "final binary". Even if that takes an extra 120k, maybe additi

I was under the impression that vinyl records sound better. Are you saying that they are not or that they haven't achieved a noticeable revival?

The problem is I watch the movies when I want to watch them. Flash is embedded in random. You can always have click-to-flash solutions but those are usually buggy and there are other solid arguments in the list.

I suggest Learn Code the Hard Way by Zed A. Shaw ( http://learncodethehardway.org/ ). It's online, it's free and it's brilliant. I'd suggest him to go with Python as his first language. If he wants to be a good programmer, he should be able
