I will, however, point out one consequence of that idea: the most
noticeable difference between abstract art and abstract mathematics is
that abstract mathematics has some aesthetic value. Abstract art can
now consist of a canvas painted one color, or mere splatters of paint

A computer game is a computer program whose creator intended primarily
that human beings enjoy interacting with it.
I was just arguing that the idea of "suckless design" may fit not so
well in game programming.
That's why at a certain point I answered a message in a private way

Hi everyone,
I was playing around with awk and ran into some surprising data for the
function match(s, r), which returns the position of the first match of
regular expression r in string s. Here's the test I ran:

That was a lie. The patch fails as of r357.

I'm sure it will be easy to fix, I'll have a look later tonight, as well as

Then one should exclude Chopin from that definition. In regard to the
"needless repetitions" of Reich and Glass, that is much of what the

Hi there.
I have a special project for which I'd like to patch dwm to function with a
3 column layout.
I'd like to have one wide column in the center (ideally this would be the
master column), and two skinnier columns to the right and left. The first
three clients to open should occupy these three

Some time ago, I asked your sugestions on what should be a parser
