I have to admit that I'm thoroughly enjoying SAK's latest articles. Methinks he's found his calling here - the C++ stuff is incredibly useful. His latest, on threading, is currently being used to simplify some rather more complex code I had.

So IOW it's a thread on threading: recursive?

No, just self-referential.

So he should stick to writing and stay away form the QA forum 
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

Whatever we think of him personally, there is no doubt his technical ability is well above average.

It was clear he has only problem with his human interface... never lacked knowledge...

Mary had a little lamb,
She also had a duck.
She put them on the mantelpiece,
To see if they would Elephant.

I just found this in a comment to a news article I was reading:
Quote: The problem with something "foolproof" is that new and improved types of fools are being made every day.
That comment was prophetic. The article was about a train accident here last year. It turned out that the fool involved was the dispatcher who was too busy playing with his phone instead of looking what happens on the tracks.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

The boy stood on the burning deck,
Playing a game of cricket.
The ball rolled up his trouser leg
And hit his middle wicket.
Slogans aren't solutions.

Dropped a turdy in my eye
Gee I'm glad that cows can't fly.

and after eating clover even explode (but not so much in the manner holywood movies portray)

Mary had a little lamb
She also had a bear
I've often seen her little lamb
But never seen her bear.
The boy stood on the burning deck
Whence all but he had fled

I'll stick with the classics:
My nose, my nose lived dangerously
Its courage was no stunt
And, during the war with Germany,
It was always out in front
But when the war was over
And when we'd defeated the Hun
Suddenly, for no reason at all,
My nose began to run

Esaw Wood sawed wood.
Esaw Wood would sell wood.
One day, Esaw Wood saw a sawer saw wood
As no other wood sawer Esaw Wood saw would saw wood.

Mary had a little lamb
that tasted good with wine.
And everywhere that Mary went
the lamb she was sure to dine.

I'd rather have eyes than a nose
I'd rather have fingers than toes
As for my hair
I'm glad it's still there
I will be awfully sad when it goes

There goes the way to Codeproject
Where technical articles are perfect
Where machines understand languages
And human effort is due no wages
The mighty Bob keep eyes on all
Gladly stuck in his left corner
He would update the weekly poll
And take care of the lonely hamster
Alas, this little piece of poetry
though written with heart is sunshiny
But had my rhymes sounded better
I would not be a coder but a famous writer
