Multiple? A Main Battle Tank such as the German Leopard 2 weighs 62,300 kg (137, 347 lb). Even a puny WW2 Sherman medium tank weighed in the neighborhood of 70,000 lb.

XNU is a hybrid kernel incorporating large elements of Mach (microkernel) as well as BSD (monolithic kernel).

Does it have an HDMI connector? The description is extremely poor.

"What do you mean, "we", white man?"

Physical? You could jam a lot more storage in a 3.5" drive than you're ever going to see, but it would not be economically practical, and the MTBF and reliability would be very poor.

You completely missed the drawn of HDDs with the ST506 5MB, and the big breakthrough when the much faster 10MB ST512 replaced it? Those were the exciting days.

What other possible way is there to pronounce it?

"Gaz" for gas/gasoline.

Reminds me of the ludicrous idea of medical savings accounts. Hardly anyone below the top 0.1% could ever hope to "save" enough money and put it away to cover a medical or legal disaster or a really bad accident involving personal injury or destruction of extremely valuable property.

It just isn't a realistic proposition. Insurance with all its flaws exists for good reason.

Honest question: If you aren't going to share data between/among threads, why use threads at all? Why not just fork-abd-exec?

It's not even fully C++11. Massive fail.

> It passes shared_ptr via reference

Talk about not getting it.

You are ridiculously hard on your capital equipment. It must be nice not to have a care in the world for your expensive possessions. Personally I couldn't bring myself to torture fine machinery like that.

I would say perl6 was stable as of the Christmas 2015 release of rakudo.

I found this a nifty intro to perl6. I am a 70 year old retiree and have 37 years of C programming and some C++, perl5, and other languages. This is the first time I've been able to make the slightest headway digging perl6.
