there are many who would classify some building codes as unnecessary and some as absolutely essential, but for others the difference between the two is just too much to fathom... and as a result of their brains hurting so much, or from ulte

Good point :) Here's a different take, then, and probably harder to verify, but I am guessing is true: Cache utilization has increased much more than RAM or HD, not just because programs are handling more data but also because of increases

"modern C++" has changed meanings so many times in the past 10 years that it's not funny anymore. there's always some "modern" solution in C++ that ends up causing more problems, leading to further "modern" solutions that end up... you get

Is Apache a DSL? I agree that the manifesto doesn't explicitly claim to support all kinds of ADTs. It just wasn't clear. Manifesto without a marketing intention... interesting :)
