Re:Average /.ers are fractal, so the average is undefined. Submitted by Chryana on February 19, 2009 - 4:56pm.
Re:Isn't that normal? Yes, but it can go down with optimizations and refactoring (finding duplicated code and pushing it into a function or macro, for example) and with eliminating dead code. Ideally, code size should be asymptotic to an optimal size. As you approach the optimal size, more and more of what you need to do is already available to you. As you approach the limit, the amount of special-case logic and hardcoding approaches zero, and the amount of data-driven logic approaches 100%. Submitted by AceJohnny on June 18, 2008 - 10:04am.
Re:Irony The thing is, 5,000 engineers horsing around isn't the same thing as a 5,000 horsepower engine. Submitted by veridicus on February 4, 2007 - 5:47pm.
Basic on a PET 3032 But BASIC NEIL sounds intriguing. Instead of loops, you inform the code block that it's a dupe. The end statement is eliminated - the program will crash when it is slashdotted. GOSUBs are ignored, as nobody reads the articles. Threads will insist on getting together to do a RETURN day, as the latency on individual returns is too high. Every so often, BASIC NEIL will turn the screen pink and fill it with pony references. Submitted by xyzzy on August 8, 2006 - 9:10pm.
To the tune of a Dire Straits song... I want my.... I want my KDE.... I want my.... I want my KDE.... I want my.... I want my KDE.... Now look at them desktops, that's the way to do it You get your DCOP from your KDE That ain't working, that's the way to code it Widgets for nothing and your glyphs for free. Bow that ain't working, that's the way to code it Lemme tell ya, them guys ain't dumb Maybe get a glitch in your brand-new icon Maybe get a glitchy core-dump. We gotta install ISO 9000 Custom language packs We gotta move those partition boundries We gotta move that Berlin GUI |
