A few years ago I got some books for free from a second-hand bookstore here in Zagreb, Croatia, where I live. One of those was a Real World OCaml book with a dedication from Jane S…

It seems that Go's race detector ( https://blog.golang.org/race-detector ) can do that. see an example: http://pastie.org/9705392

system() delegates to shell only in the case of one argument given to system().

Just noticed that in Perl the behavior is slightly different: http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/fork.html unsuccessful fork() returns undef, effectively stopping you from kill-ing …

> historically it's had a great user manual for beginners. The quality of Postgres' documentation was the thing that was a big plus for me more than 10 years ago when I started fid…

Great idea, but not for traffic conditions (all traffic signs have to be unambiguous all the time). Also, these small touchscreens in a public area will eventually be smashed or st…

I am not sure what you mean. I tried to explain the situation. "Serbo-croatian" as such doesn't exist ( http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/535405/Serbo-Croat... ). Yeah, you…

I have probably the same understanding of serbian. I used to read a lot of science fiction literature translated into it. Not to mention that I learnt cyrillic script in elementary…

(Disclaimer: I am a native croatian speaker.) There's a significant difference between croatian and serbian language: croatian language is composed of three dialects and a standard…

There's one obvious way to write good Perl code: read the documentation. Perl has tonnes of it. There are bugs in there of course, but most of it is very good. Also try to visit pe…

Programmers. What a bunch of bastards. ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVSlE28hOgI )

I usualy use Tcl for my personal projects. It's nice and simple but powerful language, and the only real problem with it is that there's too many old libraries that can't work with…

It doesn't. Space is significant here, and if '-' is a the front of the matching character class it matches literal '-'. Your regex '[- ~]' matches either '-' or ' ' or '~'.

Excellent article but it still doesn't explain apparent "hatred" towards N9 and everything related to it. You cannot find it on Nokia support pages, for example. On the products li…

Why don't Carpathia just backup the data? I know it's a lot of work and data, but burning 10.000 blurays (or other backup media) probably costs fairly less than 9.000$ per day.

Obviously, it has - for the male participants of IRC chat which found bot "jokes" funny. They have a social bondage now. That's how I saw it.

Croatia also. Bunch of dimwits.
