And I'm saying you can't have fast rescans in all cases - it very much depends on the filesystem and directory structure. I'm not trying to downplay nnn - I meant it when I said it…

I appreciate your work, but you're not being very honest with your claims. nnn is not keeping information about 400K files in memory in that benchmark. As a result, the rescan is n…

This looks incredibly cool, I love the speed and minimalism. It doesn't seem as configurable and feature-packed as vifm[1], so I'll probably stick with that, but it certainly fills…

There was a similar talk[1] at FOSDEM, where the speaker describes how, as an experiment, he replaces a full ELK stack plus other monitoring tools with PostgreSQL. He even goes as …

Shameless plug: I also maintain a few small single-file C libs at https://dev.yorhel.nl/ylib And, separately, a small-single-file-but-correct XML parser: https://dev.yorhel.nl/yxml…

I'm surprised that even the fastest implementation needs 20+ms to search a 1000-element array. I would expect even a linear search to finish within 1 or 2ms with such a small data …

Location: Netherlands Remote: No Willing to relocate: Within the Netherlands Technologies: C, Perl, PostgreSQL, Apache, lots of Linux stuff Résumé/CV: Mail me for full CV, check my…

Note that quvi support has been removed on mpv git recently. They seem to be considering a switch to youtube-dl instead. https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/9b45b48c466765b649…

SEEKING WORK - Remote or near Enschede, Netherlands Available for any C (not C++, sorry) development where performance and efficiency matter. Love working with low level stuff, emb…

Hmm? The stack buffer in yxml will never cause parsing to block, and there's no added dependencies on... anything? I don't think that buffer causes any problems even on a size-rest…

It's new, yes. I wrote it about two months ago because I needed a parser and found the existing solutions too bloated. > It doesn't allocate or buffer, so when it says that it veri…

Agree with the article; Linda is great, both the name and the project. It was one of the more interesting topics of a Distributed Systems course that I followed, but I never ended …

Start with the Autotools Mythbuster: http://www.flameeyes.eu/autotools-mythbuster/ The autoconf & automake documentation is generally quite good as well.

Please do use autotools! You only need two files: configure.ac and Makefile.am, both at the top-level of your project. The autogenerated stuff can be ignored, you don't have to lea…

> Firstly you need a way to incrementally verify a file Following the proposal of the article, you don't really need that. If you don't have the hash in your local cache, you shoul…

Odd-sounding request: Is it possible to have an option to not use gpg, or any encryption, at all? I only store my passwords on a LUKS loopback file, which I mount/umount as I need …

Minor downside: You have to ensure that the contents of a {code ..} block have all their open-brackets matched with close-brackets. This can be quite tricky with larger code exampl…

On a related note: Be wary of the dlclose() function, it may not necessarily free any resources[1] and not every libc implements it correctly[2]. 1. http://www.openwall.com/lists/m…

If the /robots.txt does not mention a Crawl-delay, one page per 3 seconds is often a safe value. Of course this rather heavily depends on the site. In any case, if you have any spe…
