Comment Re:Tabs vs Spaces (Score 1) 428

axiom: there are two kinds of spaces used in programming: 1) block indentation, and 2) alignment (for long lines, variable initialization lists, etc...), and type 1 always appears to the left of type 2 on any given line.

if you use the same character for both then you are unnecessarily contributing to the heat-death of the universe.

Comment Re:Isn't the solution to block Baidu ? (Score 1) 137

Shouldn't we block Baidu and make GitHub unavailable from China ?

You'd have to convince everyone outside china to block Baidu. And as for blocking GitHub for Chinese users, China would love that. The only reason they're not blocking GitHub is that so many Chinese engineers use it. If someone outside China blocked it for them, they'd be killing two birds with one stone: censoring the VPN info and making another country look bad.

I recommend draemhost, too. Been using them for ages for registration, hosting and email. They're cheap and helpful. They don't screw you for late fees or sell your domains if you mess up. The shared hosting isn't screaming fast but apparently you can easily upgrade to shared or dedicated VMS - though I haven't seen the need.

Comment Re:Ahhhh, C++ (Score 1) 757

dude, you're a fucking moron.

moc generates C++ code. gcc generates .as code. they both generate code, and they both use that code as an intermediate form.
mov "converts the output output of the previous step to another logically equivalent form". as does gcc.
with moc, you use a tool (gcc) to include the intermediate form in your final output. with gcc, you use a tool (as/ld) to include the intermediate form in your final output.
