This is where "fun" stuff is likely to be.
Meteor (web framework) by Ciro Santilli 40 Updated 2025-07-16
The idea is cool. It really unifies front-and back end.
But Ciro Santilli feels the approach proposed by FeathersJS of being a glue between bigger third-party Front-end web frameworks like React and backend (object-relational mapping) is more promising and flexible.
MacKenzie Bezos went on to marry a science teacher who taught their children.
The contrast with Bezos's girlfriend is simply comical. MacKenzie married the idealistic morally upright science teacher, while Bezos went for a silly sex bomb. Ah, bruta flor, do querer!
Ciro Santilli once talked to a man who had been working on high-frequency trading for the last six years.
He was quite nice.
Ciro asked him in what way did he feel his job contributed to the benefit of society.
He replied that it didn't contribute at all. It was completely useless. More than that, it so completely useless, that it was even pure. A bit like advanced mathematics, but not even providing beauty for anybody outside of the company, since everything is a closely guarded trade secret, unlike mathematics which is normally published for the vanity recognition.
A great mind can work in the most useless branches of finance, without the desire to improve the world, nor make it worse. Not to compete, nor be afraid, nor anxious. A sand mandala.
Only being. Being, in the exact fraction of a moment where bid meets ask.
Sections with sh_type == SHT_STRTAB are called string tables.
They hold a null separated array of strings.
Such sections are used by other sections when string names are to be used. The using section says:
  • which string table they are using
  • what is the index on the target string table where the string starts
So for example, we could have a string table containing:
Data: \0 a b c \0 d e f \0
Index: 0 1 2 3  4 5 6 7  8
The first byte must be a 0. TODO rationale?
And if another section wants to use the string d e f, they have to point to index 5 of this section (letter d).
Notable string table sections:
  • .shstrtab
  • .strtab
