I disconcur. I think Google+ has been overhyped and has a ways to go before it becomes a mature product. It's off to a good start but unless the G+ team takes Steve Yegge's rant to heart, it may start heading in the direction of Buzz and Wave. They definitely need to expand the API's and SOA in order to entice indep...

I don't think the analogy holds up. C is more than an encoding of machine code. For one thing, a C compiler will usually generate assembly that wouldn't be feasible for a human to write (and most C programmers probably don't know enough assembly to replicate or understand some of the compiler tricks). With English shor...

More specifically, the random walk runs 100 times and marks the position, then records it in a probability density, graphs it, and gives the mean, median, and standard deviation. 1000 iterations gives a good normal distribution. I'm somewhat new to programming so any critique is helpful.

Post title: "A fall sweep"? Is there some hidden reference I missed, or is it just a language mistake intended to mean "One fell swoop"? Edit: indeed, based on the below comments, it seems to be a wordplay between "fall (season) sweep (cleaning)" and "fell (~mean) swoop (~shot)".

I understand that, but most of these products seemed to be totally coasting, if there was any active development being done, it wasn't visible to the end user. Some servers, storage and bandwidth is all these products seemed to be costing, which for a company the size of Google, shouldn't be too big of a deal.

I doubt it's taxing on their physical resources to run. Their index size must be negligible compared to the main Google source.

It's nice experience to have, but you don't want to get stuck doing it. You'll never get the senior/lead/architect title doing maintenance work. It will ultimately limit your career opportunities if you get stuck doing it for too long.

I never saw the comment you replied to, but I think it is fair to say that Steve Jobs liked to design products that were good for users, but not good for tinkerers (i.e. those who liked to play with technology). In that respect he is anti technology. On a completely separate note: I hate that people like Steve Wozniak...

Some of the particularly common ones you definitely could. You can probably also do some optimizations and caching of them. That said, with the hardware resources Google has, I suspect most of their decisions to shut stuff down are related to manpower costs to keep them up to date.
