This definitely dampens the usefulness.
It's like the author knew it was a bad idea too (he put noexcept(false) on the destructor; without which in C++11 the program terminates immediately when an exception is thrown from destructor).
If there's some way to avoid terminating when there's a double exception in the destructor, that would be good to hear!
One simple way I can think of is to reuse the same variable instead.
ThrowOnError throw_on_error;
std::cout << libfoo_create_widgets(1, &c1, throw_on_error) << libfoo_create_widgets(2, &c2, throw_on_error);Comment · 12 years ago
Out of curiosity how would you reimplement this file in bash? https://github.com/kaniini/slabbed-or-not/blob/master/xen-de...
In particular, the fact that it's using inline asm directly (for cpuid, ud2, some others). Maybe with 'as' but that's not exactly pure bash (and I suspect not embedding it in C would need a non-trivial main function anyway).
Reading an arbitrary memory address (for the cpuid scans) might be a bit tricky too, though it could be doable with /proc/$PID/mem.

That sounds like it could be a bug, you should consider filing it on https://code.google.com/p/android

It would be a lot easier to get their attention if there was an actual 'adb bugreport' attached to the bug.
There's very little context on what the bug is and how to reproduce it besides some vague references to PressureNET (which means very little to someone who hasn't used that before).

Have you tried turning off Contacts synchronization in Settings > Accounts ?

I found this really fun, I tried half the languages there. But why do the lower level languages like C/C++ have actual logic in them (e.g. if/else/||/&& ) while the higher level languages just have module/class definitions?
It's not exactly an apple-to-oranges comparison. Like I just got 100+ wpm in Ruby but what's the point of feeling good about that when it's just typing out a list of symbols over and over again?

It's immutable but it defines swap? That seems.. odd.

This isn't any different from sharing the password with your family members (who you should trust anyway, right?). Why not make it more useful and allow the person you share with to play games from your library at the same time you're playing?
(but different games. if I want to play TF2 and the family member wants to play Dragon Age, I don't see why that shouldn't be possible!)
Heck, you can already play single/multi player games simultaneously just by sharing passwords and using offline mode. Color me unexcited.
Here's even a quick config file change you can make so that your Steam always starts in offline mode and doesn't force-logout the other person already logged in. http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25474... (tried this with my dad and it works great as long as he doesn't need to patch).

Great post, very informative!
But why recommend changing operator new/delete by using a macro instead of privately inheriting a class that does that?

Can someone please shed some light on this relatively recent APU race? I understand it seems like a good idea for OpenCL, but when they increase their APU performance while actually stagnating their CPU performance I am just completely lost (as is the case with the i7-4770K).
What is the market for desktop CPUs where the desktop buyers don't also have dedicated video cards which can do a almost a magnitude better job than the APU?

Oh, I don't think the game is not replayable, I had a lot of fun playing it and L4D2. I just don't think it was at all obvious accomplished their goals with the director AI that they set out to. Hence "replayability section" (directly referring to the PDF)

Seems like a great idea. I expect most of their contributions will make it back to open source via AOSP, and people will be able to run their own secure non-proprietary versions of Android.
Is this a typo, or are they really selling this few cars? Must be the SF bay area bubble, I see a Model S all the time!
