Just tried it and my first impression is: "this was built for me! I love it!". One bit of friction: I'm in vi mode. I hit 'f' to follow links. Apparently I need to hit 'i' before i…

Two lesser known books that I enjoyed: 1) "Colossus: The secrets of Bletchley Park's code-breaking computers", and 2) "The Dream Machine: J.C.R. Licklider and the Revolution That M…

Thanks for giving me an excuse to recommend "A Deepness in the Sky", by far my favorite science fiction book with a planet of sentient spiders. It's the second in a series, but the…

Pattern matching is on many people's radar, including the "Direction Group" (See: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2018/p093... ). This proposal was discussed at …

I first heard the term "remote first" from a stack overflow blog post: https://stackoverflow.blog/2017/02/08/means-remote-first-com... The key takeaway for me was: Remote-first mea…

rr is my goto debugger. It opens up new super-powers for debugging scripts. Consider this gdb script: b broken_1_in_1000_times_at_random.cpp:1 c b usually_runs_normally.cpp:1 rever…

I'll have to add some of these to my list of quotes that emacs greets me with. Current list: (defvar scratch-quotes (list "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.…

Oodbs used a similar technique to translate addresses from a large "global" address space into smaller "local" one. Here is a paper if you're interested (ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu/pu…

Maybe you're confusing reference collapsing with universal references? In your example, replace bar (6) to bar (i). It won't compile because i is not an r value. bar(i) will compil…

| but a more technical understanding requires the knowledge that rvalue references can bind to any l- or rvalue I don't think that's true. rvalue references can only bind to rvalue…

Eric Neibler is working on bring a range library into the standard. His blog is a good source of info on his approach: http://ericniebler.com/

> There was also another company selling a similar product, that used to sell Lisp Machine software, but I don't recall the name any longer. Are you thinking of Lucid and their "En…

VsVim is OK, but I don't find it good enough to replace my usual emacs/evil. I did find it useful to define a gdb-like single key debugging mode. This lets me use keys like the spa…

Is "needy" exercise equipment a thing? That could be a cool product. Or, instead of the bike needing attention, how about the bike feeds/walks/plays with a cute dog. If you don't u…

I'm building an environment for computer vision, and I recently made a client that can run on the rpi (two minute video if you're interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSigkvb…

1) Easy access to good vision libraries (in particular OpenCV and ITK) 2) Fairly easy to parallize algorithms w/ OpenMP or Intel's TBB. 3) Compilers (well, Intel C++ anyway) are go…
