As far as I know, the same poor implementation is still in use. I don't use Perl, but I do use a lot of languages which make use of PCRE which uses the same faulty algorithm.
Note particularly the units on the vertical scale of those two graphs. The Perl algorithm is measured in seconds, the Thompson algorithm is measured in microseconds.
I'm sorry you're uneducated about Perl's notoriously poor regex implementation, that has unfortunately become the standard in most languages.

You're aware that contrary to popular belief, reasoning and logic apply outside the fields of mathematics and the natural sciences and that, interestingly enough, theology takes its place next to them as Aristotle's third branch of theoretical philosophy, right? Obviously I wasn't making a formal argument in previous post, but I guess this is a case-in-point of why the "any idiot can see" argument should not be part of a formal proof, because unfortunately there are always several idiots who manage to prove you wrong on that point. If you really fail to see how that verse applies in an argument over whether Christian ethics are compatible with freedom (and by extension free enterprise), I suggest you find a class in remedial reading comprehension. If, however; you merely protest to my use of a single set of verses without the full context of scripture, I'll be happy to address the point more thoroughly.
Why do you think people are incapable of understanding that my belief in freedom of expression, freedom of religion, free enterprise, etc. are incompatible with using that freedom to help others?
I know full well that Bible thumping isn't the usual modus operandi on/., but 1 Corinthians 10 is exactly applicable here.
Looking at it one way, you could say, "Anything goes. Because of God's immense generosity and grace, we don't have to dissect and scrutinize every action to see if it will pass muster." But the point is not to just get by. We want to live well, but our foremost efforts should be to help others live well.... As a matter of fact, do everything that way, heartily and freely to God's glory. At the same time, don't be callous in your exercise of freedom, thoughtlessly stepping on the toes of those who aren't as free as you are. I try my best to be considerate of everyone's feelings in all these matters; I hope you will be, too.
Yes, it can, and I remember reading that the Japanese were looking into it a few years back, but it is very very dangerous, both in terms of small explosions like this, and catastrophic explosions that could release huge amounts of methane into the atmosphere (where it is a greenhouse gas 20 times more potent than CO2)
Also, he rambles, abuses the English language, and is all about the Tu Quoque and the Straw Men. Also, I'm not sure he managed to spell technologies correctly, out of the dozen or so times he uses it (and he manages to spell it incorrectly in different ways).
UUCP was the original method used for Usenet transfer, and was distinct from the Internet, but it was hooked up to the Internet at various locations to make contact with servers outside the local UUCP network. This was an era when email (transferred via UUCP) could take longer than snail mail to make it to its intended user (and the addresses were more like a full trip-map than just an address)
Maybe I'm getting my experiences with tcsh and bash mixed up, but I spent a summer doing shell scripting on a cluster as a job, and I don't remember having difficulty other than one instance where I was having problems escaping `s in a nested rsh command line.
Here's what you need to know: put double quotes around things containing whitespace, anywhere it could be an argument to something else, or anything that could contain whitespace if taken as input from a user.
It's as simple as that. Really.
Indeed not. There are plenty of positive genetic traits that would have had no impetus to occur naturally, because as you so helpfully pointed out, traits that are neutral in the short term may very well be lost to genetic drift, even if in the long run they could accumulate to something more beneficial.
because "Hi, I took a semester of photoshop my freshman year of high school" will totally get you a job in the real world. Middle school and high school students just need basic tech literacy and first exposures. Going to college or trade school is what's going to land you a job, and that is where you need to learn Brand X of a particular sort of software.
Yes, there are exceptions to that (myself included, a couple years back), but the sorts of low-paying, under-the-table, tech jobs a high school student is going to land generally afford them the right to use whatever tools they feel comfortable with; because whatever local business or charity they're working for doesn't know jack-all about tech anyway, and will listen to whatever their new PFY says like it's the gospel truth.
My first time driving standard I was going perhaps faster than was wise, getting a feel for the various gears. Coming over the crest of a hill I was suddenly confronted with 2 deer in the road, and my Star Wars Podracer rock-pillar dodging instincts kicked in.
eh, shoddy typing on my part. *no
Computer Science is now more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.
You are aware of Valve and Blizzard, right?
I don't think you realize how good the Power architecture is for Folding@Home.
from math import sqrt sqrt(3000)/3.28 = 16.7

That progressive huh? I'm still printing via LocalTalk.

Is that some sort of cross between diamond and adamantium?

It purports to be a sungworld product, but sungworld shows no such product on their website.

You're missing the point. It's not for motorcycle riders. It's for conspiracists who want something a little more stylish than aluminum foil.
I personally have found the practice of heap sorting my belongings to be very effective.

In particular the gap between countable infinities and uncountable infinities.
It needs neither. It needs finite, but unbounded, memory.
