Delimited Continuations in Computer Science and Linguistics, a talk by Oleg Kiselyov. “We give a detailed introduction to delimited continuations – the meanings of partial contexts – and point out some of their occurrences in multi-processing, transactions, and non-deterministic computations. After briefly touching on the formalism and the logic of delimited continuations, we concentrate on two their particular uses: placing and retrieving multiple contextual marks (dynamic binding, anaphora) and meta-programming (generating code, generating denotations of interrogative sentences and clauses).”
We’re standing on the beach,
The sea will part before me
(Fire wheel burning in the air)
And you will follow me,
And we will ride to glory

Right outside this lazy summer home
you don’t have time to call your soul a critic, no
Right outside the lazy gate of winter’s summer home
wondering where the nuthatch winters
Wings a mile long just carried the bird away

Reluctant Sorting Algorithms, “I would like to present you two new sorting algorithms. They wholly follow spirit of multiply and surrender paradigm and still are damn beautiful.”
RapidXml is an attempt to create the fastest XML parser possible, while retaining useability, portability and reasonable[!] W3C compatibility. It is an in-situ parser written in modern C++, with parsing speed approaching that of strlen function executed on the same data. Entire library is contained in a single header file, and requires no building or configuration.
