The Geek in Me : Bisdak Babbles

Being in software development has its ups and downs. It is really stressful when you have to complete a task in an unreasonably short time. It gets boring when you’re not allowed to access the internet and yet you’re still waiting for the next task. It’s very frustrating when you can’t figure […]

This must be one of my rare geeky postings. ^-^ I came across this C code somewhere:
