This browser is slick! Despite its massive privacy and security problems [all have had some]…it just feels faster and less in your way than firefox does–hard to believe, but true. I love it

Requirements are always the hardest thing for me, as a programmer, to understand, so that I can adequately program something–especially if the end user doesn’t know either.

Here is a good page documenting it:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/library/4166.html

For my own experience, I’d say use cases and pictures are the biggest helps.

Thoughts?

It appears possible:
Here is a type of syntax

class A
def go(a, b, c = 3)
[a, b, c]
end
allow_named_parameters :go
end

a = A.new
a.go(1, 2)
=> [1,2,3]
a.go(1, 2, :c => 4)
=> [1,2,4]
a.go(:a => 5, :b => 6)
=> [5,6,3]

And you didn’t have to add any code for it! Whoa!

Currently code can be found at

Rock on.

looks like instead of using “dev/zero” you use MAP_ANON.
Combine these two:

so…want an easy way to fork [and return data from a forked child to the parent?]
look no further than the forkoff project

So…you’ll need to create a private/public key, upload appropriately to github, then…

copy your private key to %HOME%/.ssh # for me it’s c:\documents and settings\random user

so it’ll be something like the file called ‘identity’ within that directory

and you’re good to go

[note that it'll be in unix format, not putty style private keys--you can convert between the two]

Yes–I’m back on XP

with only 256MB RAM–yipes!

So…this happens.  I got [sporadically, but consistently]

blue screen of death with XP [any service pack] after re-installing XP

driver irql not less or equal with ndis.sys

Only difference with my previous config was that I had used microsoft's default drivers
for the network card.
So...to discover the root problem, had to [1] [2] debug it [occurred even in safe mode].
using windbg stated that the error was an irq number "too high, or a bad memory access"
(it was trying to access memory at 0x00000 -- obviously that was the problem, not
the misleading title).
Current fix: not use the admtek ADM8211 wireless 802.11b pci card I had installed.

Note--said the problem was in ndis.sys I believe--ndis somewhere.  The computer would also
spontaneously reboot after each bsod.
Seems stable now. phew!

Here’s how I did it.

download ruby(one click installer will do)

download luis lavena’s ruby installer [1]

run it [it downloads mingw for you and build 1.8.6] by running rake

now run sandbox/mingw/…/rxvt.exe

edit the path

export PATH=/bin:$PATH

export PATH=/c/dev/downloads/rubyinstaller_clone/sandbox/mingw/bin:$PATH # in my case

now download the daily snapshot.tar.gz from ruby-lang.org

now untar it [somehow]

now [at least currently] run rxvt, navigate to it [/c/wherever], delete parse.c, run ./configure –enable-shared && make && make install
