Does he have a reputation for poor hygiene?

Epic win response lol

I'm a CS grad student at Caltech. My absolute favorite intro theory book (the one I recommend to undergrads and people just starting out) is Algorithms by Vazirani, Dasgupta, and P…

It says some packages will receive updates. Which ones?

I think you meant an 8-core i7, there are no 8-core i5's.

The author incorrectly states that the k-th Fibonacci number can be computed in O(1) time. Actually the algorithm he describes runs in O(k) time.

Hey Walter, I really admire your work. I'm curious though, do you think D is potentially in danger of trying to do too many things? No one wants another mess like C++.

I used to run Debian, but I switched to Fedora a few years ago and haven't looked back. Fedora is always sleek and up-to-date, unlike Debian, which due to its outdated packages alw…

Woke me up this morning, pretty wild

If they had Unicode support and multicore support in the language I'd be a lot more interested.. hopefully in five or ten years we'll get there.

I took a class from Amie. Brilliant researcher!

It's excellent, highly recommend.

When will this be part of FreeBSD?

Beautifully written post.

I don't think it has been actually released yet... The main page is still pointing to OpenBSD 6.4, and the 6.5 page says it will be released on May 1.

Really neat project, beautiful code.

What about LibreSSL?

It looks cool, but I have no idea how to use it. You guys need to give a proper tutorial page, where you show how to from 0 to working app.

Google: Oh shit, you guys saw that?? We were just fucking everyone over by accident lol

This looks amazing! Does it support parallel/multicore programming?

Manuel Blum is my academic great grandfather, i.e my advisor's advisor's advisor. He is a legend. Very sad to see this happen.

This is complete bullshit. Therapy usually takes way more than 6-8 sessions before seeing results.
