星期日晚去了第一次的 GBA 練習。
有關 GBA ,我之前已有寫過,他們是中大的一隊 A capella ,全名是 Girls & Boys A capella ,也就是無伴奏和聲。在之前大專賽奪得冠軍而揚名,所以多了演出的機會,下一個表演需要比較多人 ( 是否有保密協議? )
Exceptions have somewhat of a bad reputation in serious programmingcircles. People feel that they are troublesome for various reasons,including that they are non-local gotos and they make it hard toguarantee that you really are cleaning up after problems. (You canfind posts about this at Joel on Software and in Raymond Chen's blog,among other places.)
I don't know about that, but I do know that exceptions are really goodfor casual programs, which is what I mostly write. Casual programs
Python likes to make programming efficient: that is, to make programsfast and easy to write, and eliminate the tedious drudgery. Prettymuch all dynamically typed languages do, since static typing is a lotof effort (except in languages with a lot of type inference, where itis only some effort).
After writing yesterday's entry ,it's struck me that exceptions are a form of efficientprogramming, because they let you aggregate error checking and errorhandling across a large block of code.
Without exceptions

A few weeks ago I discovered that only 220 different IP addresses sentus actual email over the course of a week. This naturally raises thequestion: was this just a slow week, or is this typical? The answerturns out to be 'maybe'.
On the system I usually run my stats on, I only have logs going backabout 28 days; looking at the entire time period, there was email from443 different IP addresses. Not surprisingly, the distribution of howmuch
A while back I wrote about FutureSysadminJobs and suggested thatpeople who wanted satisfying careers as system administrators overthe long term should develop the skills to be troubleshooters. Whichbegs the question: what are those skills?
The first and most important skill is: you have to find all thisinteresting . Enjoying being a curious packrat is not entirelyrequired, but I think it helps a whole lot, especially as you'llprobably need to learn a number of things on your own time.
Other than that, based on my
