Wow, that seems damn useful. By comparison, the current Reddit stylesheet is over 200 lines. Are there any disadvantages to this thing at all? I think I may just start to run all of my stylesheets through this. EDIT: Just ran the stylesheet through from another site (a 1500 line stylesheet - not mine), and it ...

Feh, it exaggerates the appearance of compression by removing empty lines and putting a rule's declarations all on one line. If you do that to the original Reddit stylesheet it comes down to 116 lines. Anyhow, it's a neat little tool, but not really very great. All it does, as far as I could see, is extract common d...

Yeah, this is a complete hoax. This article has been floating around the Internet for years. The first time I saw it, I had the luxury of going to high school with Bjarne's son. He personally refuted the article, claiming that it had massively damaged his dad's reputation. I see that it's still at work.

Did Bjarne actually think that his reputation was damaged by this article? Come on. Any person who knows the context sees it's a joke within two paragraphs. If anything, his activity on Usenet in the mid-90s *did* damage his reputation. He became a jealous father to C++, and kinda set up the drab and joyless nature of ...

Sure it's a hoax, but the reason it's funny is because there's just enough truth in it. Damaged his reputation!? Too late for that; too many C++ programmers for years have been cursing Stroustrup under their breath as they code.

I've always considered C++ the 286 of languages. I owned an 8080 PC and then, after years, jumped to a 386. Never had a crummy 286 and felt I had dodged a bullet. I likewise jumped from 'C' to Python while only having to scrape a little C++ and Java off my shoes now and again. It's amazing how many programmers gl...

I think the Merge Sort and the Heap Sort were fastest for the sample used in the applet. Next time I need a sort, I'll probably performance test several and see if the results are similar to the ones in the applet.

The point of this is not to work on the stylesheets that you will again modify later. It is to compress the stylesheets that you serve on your site. It's like a compiling stage. Since when do you go back and edit the output of a c compiler?

The problem is some of these algorithms can't really be compared. I mean, binary sort vs RSA.

I would consider this article interesting, not because it shows which algorithms have the most "mindshare," but because of the summaries of each algorithm. Just pick an interesting algorithm off the list, and surf over to Wikipedia... You'll probably learn something.

Maybe that's an obvious thought when reading it, but it is directly addressed right there on the site (there is a link on the front page titled "Why haven't you killed yourself?"). To summarize, everyone dies anyway, so killing yourself has little effect on future population. To have any useful affect, you need to co...

I beg to differ. [Most of computer science](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_science#Fields_of_computer_science) is based on discrete mathematics and has nothing to do with linear algebra.

Why don't you? I'm not being sarcastic. That sounds like a useful thing to do, so.... I'd do it myself, but given that I'm TOTALLY unqualified to do it, I'd rather someone else did and I learned from looking at it. Better yet, a number of people could do it and we could see if a consensus arises...

I don't follow you. In the 60s Ehrlich predicted that in the 70s tens of millions would die in the 70s, and by the 80s there would be a world catastrophe due to population growth. Didn't happen.

You don't need to be working with continua to do linear algebra. Vectors are abstract, so their representation doesn't matter, and scalars only need to come from a field (basically, "things that have division" like Q, R, C, & things in between), or sometimes just a commutative ring with identity. There are plen...

Yes, I know all that (I'm a math/CS major, and I've taken linear and abstract algebra). fnot said linear algebra was important. rahul said it wasn't important to CS. I said it was important to CS, because it's heavily used in these three major fields. Furthermore, these areas of CS also use mostly continuous math**, an...

This seems kinda sick, and its self-conflicting. Is it right to kill off 1 species to lets others live? Isn't it the ultimate failure of a species to cause its own extinction? Much better idea: get off the planet! If most people relocate to other planets and moons, then we can let the wildlife here live in peace. ...
