It is sad, especially as trolltech was actually a profit making business before nokia got in there. I thought accenture were supposed to be involved in this somehow, I guess that isn't the case. Qt is a fantastic platform.

The argument was that type classes are simpler than sum types. Sum types and product types are complicating things. To the extent pattern matching encourages their use, it is complex. How is a product type complex? It complects meaning and order. Just look at how every use of a product type has to semantically relabel...

I don't really disagree with anything you've said. Vendor types are better for vendor formats, but using vendor formats isn't really that restful because clients need to go out of their way to support it. Unfortunately the standard formats don't help much either. However, using things like atom or rss can help if the...

you can focus on the resources, and ensure you use the right verbs for things, and that doesn't make it rpc. it makes it resource oriented. you are right though, it doesn't make it restful either. rest is resources + hateoas.

Just curious: What's your rationale for wanting to use the Intel C/C++ compiler? Do you have data indicating that it optimizes better in your situation?

This isn't really "ugly syntax", but I don't like how matlab fails to parse certain things that I know can be parsed in other languages.

I think you missed a trick. The algo exits as soon as it encounters TH *or* HT. It doesn't have to get both. So: X = .21(2) + .49(X + 2) + .09(X + 2) And X works out to 3.76-ish.

Right, the feed items shared by friends helped restrict them to news items and such. I don't want to have to go to google+ just to read rss feed items friends have shared. Plus this means people have to start using google+ that previously weren't. I understand why they are doing this, but I'm not too happy about it.

I'm comparing standards support for C++03, the last technical report. Not many compilers provide production support for C++10, and MSVC10 is absolutely horrendous in terms of C++10 support.

ICC does produce better code. You can get ICC to generate superior machine code (to that generated by GCC) for different ISAs (i686, i686 with mmx, x86-64 with sse2, ssse3, sse4, avx, etc.) and use your own custom runtime cpu detection. Open source projects that successfully use custom runtime cpu detection: ffmpeg/l...

Yes, "`int X int X int` conveys almost no semantics" because product type is "low level". It is about composing data into data. Order does matter at low level (how you lay out values in memory). But some languages like Haskell have record syntax so that users can label each field and stop worrying about underlying orde...

If I understand correctly, it increases the entropy *per bit* of output -- so if you take 1000 bits of whitened bits, it'll have (almost) 1000 bits of entropy, whereas you don't know how many unwhitened bits are needed to get the same amount.
