    If you're running a debugger on a program that runs against a huge data set, and you have conditional breakpoints. That takes for. E. Ver.

    Even if the performance boost of generated code is not that high, a performance boost on generatING code would be a wonderful and welcome bonus

    LLVM interoperates with GCC already. From the WIkipedia entry: "LLVM was originally written to be a more aggressive, higher performance system for the existing GCC stack,[3] and many of the GCC front-ends have been modified to work with it. LLVM currently supports the compilation of C, C++, Fortran, Objective-C, Ada, D, using front-ends derived from version 4.0.1 and 4.2 of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC)."

    GP may be talking about Mac OS Classic/Mac Toolbox type stuff. Passing in Pascal strings from C, etc. Weird memory architecture holdovers from the days of 24-bit addressing and non-relocatable memory.

    The AJAX in the name didn't tip you off? If you put a Google search box on your own webpage then searches done from that box still go directly to Google's machines and there is NO anonymizer.

    He's not talking about Wikipedia. He's talking about Wikimedia Commons, which already needs a specific warning template asking people to please refrain from adding Yet More Pictures Of Users' Cocks Because We Have Enough Already Thank You.

    It's not the analogy that makes the joke, but the wordplay. Without the reference to the idiomatic phrase, there would be no humor, instead of very little. However, even if this were a $1 transaction, the analogy would still produce groans.

    You've got your order of execution backwards. Jobs didn't hold huge shares of Disney until after Disney bought into Pixar.

    No, turns out the code left in there to support Tiger is of supernatural origin. They had to give commit access to a priest.

    I don't think anyone can account for a rich, mad genius wreaking psychic warfare in the name of world peace and unification.

  21. This analysis is totally ridiculous. on Hollywood Sets $10 Billion Box Office Record · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The $10 billion number is gross revenue. It does not take into effect the costs of making more movies than ever before. Never mind that making more movies means spending more money and that movie budgets are also increasing.
