Experiment: Can you put together a torn-up credit card application and still get a credit card?

dopp: "Every credit card application you get is now like a villain from a suspense thriller. If you don't figure out how to completely destroy it, it may come back to terrorize you in the sequel."
fridge: Scary shit

GnuPG does not detect injection of unsigned data

coderman: hey, that's a handy feature!

Telling the 'approved' story of an unspecified day last week regarding a document that cannot be identified

coderman: national security letters == fucking bullshit
seti: "Perhaps you missed it, but in a secret hearing, our president was impeached, tried, and removed from office. He was then pardoned by the acting president, and reinstated by congress. The Republicans felt he was the only one capable of running a war on terror and the Democrats figured he offers them the best opportunity to regain control of the government. This conversation did not take place."

Microsoft Sees Origami As New Breed of PC

kp^: On Thursday, the software company took the wraps off its mysterious Project Origami and along with its hardware partners unveiled a new breed of PC — an ultramobile, full-fledged computer that weighs about 2 1/2 pounds, is the roughly the size of a paperback book, and features a 7-inch touch screen.
kp^: With prices expected to initially land between $500 and $1,000 and a battery life that so far spans up to three hours, even Microsoft acknowledges that sales will be limited in the beginning. But the hope is that with technological improvements over time, the ultracompact PC will eventually cross over from early adopters to attract mainstream buyers.
Ash: talk about retarded
kp^: I concur=

template iterators in boost

coderman: "If you were writing a family of iterators, you probably wrote a type generator to build the iterator_adaptor specialization you needed; in the new library design you don't need a type generator (though may want to keep it around as a compatibility aid for older code) because, due to the use of the Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (CRTP) [Cop95], you can now define the iterator class yourself and acquire functionality
j_blogs: But, why would you fuck with your mind like that?

The Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (CRTP)

coderman: mainly used for ref counting, but some people get freaky with it, like some people get freaky with goto
rovar: More information on using crtp for mixins can be found hmyah (soul sucking registration required: http://devnet.developerpipeline.com/documents/s=9843/cuj0601diggins/0601diggins.html?temp=38F++2TLzV )
