I'm the developer of twittertrend.net, I was wondering if there was a faster way to get headers of a URL, besides doing curl_multi? I process over 250 URLs a minute, and I need a really fast way to do this from a PHP standpoint. Either a bash script could be used and then output the headers or C appliation, anything that could be faster?...

My main experience is with C && C++, so I'd prefer to remain with them. I don't want to use anything like QT, GTK, or wxWidgets or any tool kits. I'd like to learn native programming and this sort of defeats the purpose. With that in mind I'd also like to avoid Java. I understand gnome and xfce and KDE and such are all Desktop Environme...

Currently I'm testing on another server that has only one network card. When I use INADDR_ANY I can see the udp data, when I bind to specific interface I don't see any data. Function inet_a...
This is part of our unit test flow. I run gdb with the --command option to have it execute commands from a text file. The output of gdb is then directed into a file, and that file is compared to a reference file. But the problem is, gdb uses the current shell window's size to place newlines in its output. If the window is smaller, it wil...
I have a crontab that looks like 0 0 * * * pg_dump DB_NAME > /path/to/dumps/`date +%Y%m%d`.dmp which works fine when I run it manually, but not when cron runs it. After digging through the logs, I see Dec 12 00:00:01 localhost crond[17638]: (postgres) CMD (pg_dump DB_NAME > /path/to/dumps/`date +) It looks like a problem with perce...

My Windows application runs under Wine, but the installation is a bit of a headache for laymen, and the wrappers I've seen online (PlayOnLinux, Wine Doors) require even more packages to be installed.

I'm planning to install Linux on a computer that is currently running Windows Vista. Vista needs to remain functional after the install. I've been reading and it sounds like Microsoft changed the way Vista boots compared to previous versions of Windows. Preferably, I'd like to use GRUB to do the dual booting. Is there anything in parti...
