How does `ls` work?

How does ls work?

I wanted to be really able to explain to a fair amount of detail how does the program :command:`ls` actually work right from the moment you type the command name and hit ENTER. What goes on in user space and and in kernel space? This is my attempt and what I have learned so far on Linux (Fedora 19, 3.x kernel).

How does the shell find the location of 'ls' ?

indylambda: Putting invokedynamic to work for Scala

indylambda: Putting invokedynamic to work for Scala

Java 8 introduced lambdas to the Java language. While the design choices differ in many regards from Scala's functions, the underlying mechanics used to represent Java lambdas is flexible enough to be used as a target for the Scala compiler.

Lambdas in Java

Java does not have canonical heirarchy of generic function types (ala scala.FunctionN), but instead allows a lambda to be used as a shorthand for an anonymous implementation of an Functional Interface

Here's an example of creating a predicate that closes over one value:

How to Debug Postgres using LLDB on a Mac
This note explains how to build Postgres from source and setup to debug it using LLDB on a Mac. I used this technique to research this article:

Regular Expression Engine Comparison Chart

Regular Expression Engine Comparison Chart

Many different applications claim to support regular expressions. But what does that even mean?

Well there are lots of different regular expression engines, and they all have different feature sets and different time-space efficiencies.
