Hey, doesn't anybody like Orson Scott Card?
His books (specially Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow) are probably
among my top-5.

I very much enjoy Samuel R. Delany
(http://www2.pcc.com/staff/jay/delany/); especially Babel-17, Nova,
Stars in My Pocket Like Grains of Sand and Dhalgren. The latter one is
a good one for the holiday, as it's a tad longer. His short stories
are well worth seeking out as well. His stories are
Say I have a couple of structs like:
typedef struct A A;
typedef struct B B;
struct A
{
int a1;
int a2;
};
struct B
{
A;
int b1;
int b2;
};
Now I want to declare a variable of kind B with parts initialized. Is
there anyway to initialize the A inside the B?. I have

Is there an AFS client for plan9 anywhere?
Just curious.

secondly, reveal is meant to drop into background, accepting
connections on TCP/4523 where it replies with the concatenation of the
originating IPv4 address and port number.
is there a reason for not using listen(8)? all that is needed is a
script in /bin/service/tcp4523 nearly identical

Ender's Game is fine. I don't think I read Ender's Shadow. However,
I read the Homecoming books and got suspicious
At some distant point in the past (last century, actually)
I was drawn to AFS because of the features, but left in
horror because of the complexity.
The goal was adding an enterprise-scale distributed file
system to an existing operating system (Unix), where
enterprise-scale meant 5,000 users

31000/2 is about 15tb. that seems pretty

do you have a reference for dual pciexpress? as far as i know,
