Thanks. I'm aware of that handbook but somehow I find web-based books lack the charm of a real book but eventually once I know my way around it, I'm sure I'll come to it.

Thanks, I'll probably get it.

Is there a 300-page or less book that can teach practical usage of FreeBSD? Like the C book or the UNIX programming environment book. I have it installed on one of my laptops but never got around to use it.

What about ROS? They have pubsub, services (like HTTP), actionlib (basically like a progress event) and message code generation. They also have entire suite for debugging and logging the communications (e.g. rostopic, rosservice, rosbag, et

That last answer reminds me of my researcher colleagues :D. Are most them like that?

A lot of them are similar but then you have games like Fortnite which looks totally different.

I always wondered, how do they count so many mosquitos? Is there a technique to determine that it's 20M?

Does anybody know why Go binary-trees is so much slower than Java's?

I just tried on my Gitlab 8.16 and it seems to be able to do that. If you go to the Code tab, it shows snippets of files that contain the search term.

Yeah, being unable to host Gitlab under 512MB is just too bloaty for me. I know Gogs doesn't have this issue for the same features I use. I still use Gitlab though because it's the mainstream.

I have done little Wordpress development (just some plugin for a prototype that my company wanted). But I don't see anything that prevented it from being used to develop a web application since the theme/plugin system seems to ful

I've never developed using Django. How does it compare to Wordpress? Or under what situation is it preferable to Wordpress?

Interesting. I'm also looking at Vue.js and wondering how it can benefit me. Just one thing that I want to know: how do you do checks and tests in it? Are there any frameworks or tools to do that?

I would want to have something like Wikipedia that takes account of the user's context and knowledge to present transformed text that is customized for the user so it's easier to digest.

Those are the ones I found too, but the previous parent says that Linus has spoken against systemd which is new to me.
19.
by jackyb 10y ago
Could you point to where Linus said he doesn't like the design of systemd? AFAIK he's only disliked the binary logging (perhaps among a few other small things) but he liked it overall.

by jackyb 10y ago
He used C++ for pragmatic reasons, not for the shiny features (mostly for user interface programming which Qt is best for). https://plus.google.com/+LinusTorvalds/posts/bnfi25LuAMd https://plus.google.c

I don't know why but it often takes a really long time for me to reload the web page using Python 2 and 3 on Linux. Anybody has similar experience?

I think it's just because of internet. I bet they would be much nicer IRL. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_disinhibition_effect

I wonder if there will be any improvement if the Go code is compiled with GCC.

As far as I know, Go already has a really strong static type system (int32 cannot be assigned to int for example). Which parts are weak?

One thing that Git does not do is to track files, for a good reason. Git was designed primarily to track content which means it can track code movement between files and be smarter about compression. It is not limited by architecture of a f
