    The undo system is a bit complicated but also not poorly organized. So both.

Question: How is organised your coding ? is all your coding for R included in pre ? If no, what are your other coding about R ?
Asked by I am not a numbe (109.133.134.x) on October 14 2012, 10:24pm
Reply on October 15 2012, 2:02am:
    We usually have some work in progress branches that are not included in the main versions... Our code is somewhat decently organized, overall, but there are a few files which are way way bigger than they should be, but updating that is a pain so it happens very gradually.

Question: If you were to write the shoutcast server today, would you consider note.js?
Asked by John (70.173.150.x) on October 14 2012, 6:25am
Reply on October 15 2012, 2:03am:
    node.js? Should be pretty doable, but I'd write it in C++ using jnetlib, because for me it would be just as easy and it could be made to scale a lot further, IMO.

Reply on October 15 2012, 2:04am:
    I have one of those, but I prefer the classic natural keyboards instead. I got some good run/bike related clothes for my birthday, so I'm happy with that. and an apple cake, and a long bike ride.

Question: what's the trick for reaper utilizing cpu even when no actual processing is present? smells like bleeding edge stuff...
Asked by gio (94.66.75.x) on October 12 2012, 3:52pm
Reply on October 15 2012, 2:05am:
    We optimize for the case of when processing is used, rather for the case of when no processing is used.

Question: Ever use Python for anything? Any thoughts good/bad?
Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on October 12 2012, 2:12am
Reply on October 15 2012, 2:05am:
    Rarely, but I hate whitespace being meaningful. Seems like a decent enough language, though, but I have a hard enough time remembering all of the different syntaxes/keywords between C/C++ and Perl and shell scripts etc.

Question: Who got the best of the O'reilly Stewart Rumble?
Asked by Will (24.234.85.x) on October 11 2012, 11:38pm
Reply on October 15 2012, 2:07am:
    I didn't watch it all, but I feel like Stewart dropped the ball a bit, like when he was a touch confused saying that we didn't have a national debt when GW Bush took office (we had projected surpluses but still a significant multi-trillion dollar debt, etc).
