They can be useful for concurrent data structures.
(There is now a non-concurrent real-world usage sample below - that would not be there if @Neil hadn't mentioned FORTRAN. ;-)
For example, ConcurrentDictionary<TKey, TValue> in .NET 4.0 RC use linked lists to chain items that hash to the same ...
I have two functions right now:
TUNNEL_COMMAND = "ssh -L 27017:localhost:27017 username@ip -f -N"
def kill_tunnel():
p = subprocess.Popen(["ps", "aux"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
out, err = p.communicate()
for line in out.splitlines():

So, this is going to be a performance focused review. I'm going to be sacrificing other things to get some more performance. Keep in mind that you should benchmark each run because JIT compilers, memory paging and all the other stuff that tries to make code run fast these days can and will someti...
This was a learning experience. I have looked around and found some better ways to write some things but wanted a second opinion to look at what i've written and kind of analyze it as well.
So I just finished my first "Text based game" Sort of deal. I believe that it's poorly written and is pre...

I've been working on numerals conversion lately. Now the JavaScript course I'm following asked me to do something similar for Roman numerals.
To keep things fresh and given the amount of test-cases provided I decided to write this one Test-Driven Development style. That is, for as much as I unde...
In Python 3.4, a Counter object called cnt like this:
Counter({'0200': 3, '3000': 2, '3011': 2, '0210': 1, '4000': 1})
is to be written to a comma-separated file.
I first tried with csv and DictWriter that I had not used before, but I kept getting misty errors and was pressed for time, ...
Can anyone explain to me how the results of the following was evaluated?
{} + {} // NaN
[] + {} // "[object Object]"
{} + [] // 0
[] + [] // ""
I wrote a abstract Configuration class, then a abstract ConnectionConfiguration class and a then a abstract DatabaseConnection class.
ConnectionConfiguration extends Configuration
DatabaseConnection extends ConnectionConfiguration
My reason for doing this was learning more about object-orient...
I've started building extension methods for my EF classes like below because it makes building queries so easy, and the intellisense provided helps keep people from writing a new Where() clause in code every time they do to do something.

Today I saw a JavaScript syntax (when invoking a function) that is unfamiliar to me. It was like:
def('Person') ({
init: function(name) {this.name=name;}
,speak: function(text) {alert(text || 'Hi, my name is ' + this.name);}
});
, and
def('Ninja') << Person ({
kick: function() {this.spe...

This answer is not intended to address whether or not you should keep the chatroom or not. What is important is that we shouldn't "gang up" on SO users. Even though we don't intend to do that, here is what I often see happen:...
