To list something: C teaches memory management, memory addressing, stacks and heaps, some disassembly, binary interfaces. Basically, you see the layer on top of machine language. Python, Go, etc. are a layer on top of that. Rust and C++ tea

I'd go with C first. Rust would teach you everything C does and more, but C will lay the foundation in cleaner strokes. This will help you later no matter what language you decide to learn next. C is also in a way the language of the F

To be fair I would have read it, but there was no link, as another comments have pointed out as well.

This gives a new spin/explains the tagline on their website as well: "The game engine you waited for."

Find the kind of system you'd be interested in working on and start building one yourself. For me it was a game engine + an editor for it, but it could be anything you find the motivation to build. Start with a book or a few texts&#x2F

That's a totally different domain, where abstractions are most likely for the better. The bad part is the abstractions at places where they're not wanted e.g. graphics and other high performance systems programming. Abstractions a

Twitch chat is also running on top of IRC. You can connect to their irc servers and use the twitch chat from your irc client. With limited capabilities I might add (no private messages for one). More info: http://help.twitch.tv&#

It doesn't really have an effect. I showed it to a friend on the same monitor and we got totally different perceptions.

In my mind C/C++ converts to a certain style of C++ coding popular among competitive programmers for example. You write C style simple code but use the C++ libraries etc. when it best fits the case. Some would call it just the C style

I would be very interested to see this happen. I'd like to get into RE but don't know where one would begin. Having an example from a modern game might give some nice pointers to start working on the games I play and love right no

I don't think it is implied. I can't come up with a sentence with the same information and zero implications.

This is OT, trivial and a bit silly: How did you intend the json file? I tried with sublime but couldn't find anything to solve it. Didn't start an IDE for this.

I don't think that was ever implied.

What I'm really waiting for is that other countries start realizing what this means to them. From what I've seen, most of European media has failed to point out how big of a deal this is to everyone, not just Americans. Not just t

Any idea if there's similar sites for different languages? I'm learning russian, but audio/video material with english (or finnish) subtitles is hard to find.

I recall reading somewhere (from HN) that upvoting as an agreement was allowed. Can't find the source though..

Some computer scientists (e.g. Martin Odersky, creator of Scala) don't see object oriented programming as a true paradigm, for it can be quite easily combined with them (hence Scala and its oop + functional programming approach). I think th

So what you're saying is that, because Kasparov assumed the move was anticipated further than he could see, chess's "nature" is inferior to go, because in go–you implỵ–this wouldn't have happened. Please be more clear with what you're sayi

One thing that has been bugging me in ICS and JB is how small textfields behave, especially in text-messages. I tend to write long sms's and occasionally want to change a word from the middle. The 'knob' the author mentions does a good job

I'm 22 and only just now going to university. I've had the same issues as the author, about the non-encouraging environment, friends not interested etc. I had the interest sure, but never -really- got into it. Dabbled through Python books a

A live sample would be much more interesting, both would be best. I'd be most interested in the meta keys. As a scandinavian especially {}, [] etc. buttons are very awkward to press. Infact, so are most special characters used in programmin

Slightly off-topic, but could anyone give a good modern C reference-book or tutorial? I have read through K&R, but all the modern approaches are of course lacking.

Too many times I've heard this as an excuse to do nothing at all, that I've a hard time believing this really means what we'd think it does. Nevertheless I enjoyed the story and would like to think this is something I would have done. Which

Back in high school I felt the same way. I couldn't understand why I went out. When I didn't I felt bad and as if I was doing something very unnatural. I come from a smallish town where everyone knew each other. After awhile I got to be kno

People do and should judge books by covers. They just should be more willing and quicker to correct their misjudgements.

I really wish someone would post one of these related to students still in school (we need to work too). Or is the field so competitive the posts would make no difference?

At least playing my own records works. I don't have a link to someone elses so I can't test it. They seem to have slightly changed the player though, from the last time I checked. There was no arrow pointing at the keys for instance. Adding
