TIFF is a very versatile container format for various image-streams. It can encode multi-images(likes layers), with different compression (losseless, JPEG etc) and tiled images to …

It is, it's the Free and Open Source Developers European Meeting.

There is a C++ REPL called Cling: http://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/cling It is made by Cern and based on Clang

I doubt that it does in any EU country. In France it actually does not exceed 50% including VAT. ( http://www.revolution-fiscale.fr/le-systeme-actuel/des-impot... )

About evil preprocessor construct, there is a nice collection in the comment of this Jonh Regehr post : http://blog.regehr.org/archives/574

C++ Primer was updated to C++11. http://www.amazon.com/Primer-5th-Edition-Stanley-Lippman/dp/... The C++ FAQ is really helpful but doesn't seem to be updated to C++11 http://www.pa…

If you do static analysis on Step 2 (ie on the AST) then you only need the Front-end of your compiler. Clang/LLVM is much more modular, library oriented.(which is why the Google en…

Rust is inspired by C++ which use '::' to access names inside a namespace, here 'vec' and io are module/namespace not object, it's a static lookup. '.' is still used for object loo…

Actually you can do it using template but it is quite convoluted. ( http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.130.... )

here : http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/reports/TR2011-705.pdf It is sad we have to dig for it, it should be the first link in the article.

> On the other hand the fact that people from anywhere in the EU can come here to live and work here in the UK is great and the fact I can work, live and travel where I want within…

I won't take the eurovision to measure europe's culture. First it is not "European" anymore, neither politically (Swizerland) nor geographically (Algeria and Israel for example are…

Lack of real string type. String manipulation is a pain and you have to allocate everything by yourself which result in inefficient and dangerous code.

On the contrary, I see more and more pdf usage. Word is just a mediocre tool for editing documents and it is not supposed to be an exchange format.

I always sent a PDF file. You can only see that is was made by LaTeX with a trained eye(if their is not too heavy customization) or in the PDF meta-data. Designers would use pre-pr…

The goal of LaTeX is to output a printable document, most of the time a pdf. I don't think sending the sources is polite nor very readable nevermind HR-compliant.

If you read the story further, you will see it is not really the children version of the tale.

What was the reason to do that ? Apart from rendering your own code completely unreadable ?

Maybe that what's the author wanted to pointed out: if you have garbage collection (at least the way it's implemented in C#/Java) you have to give away scope lifetime of object. Th…
