π£ blakeyrat likes infinite series now, right?

I thought he just liked to piss and moan?
-
Well, yes, but he's usually moaning about something specific
-
Perhaps he is specific, but he pisses and moans about so much that it seems non-specific when you take it all in as a whole.

To infinity and beyond?

Yes.

I'm already using git as a poor man's dropbox. So screw you github, I don't need your fancy shit.

It's written in Go, guys!

To -1/12 ?

I wonder how much this compares to all the other git file storage systems out there.
So far no mentions of git-annex or git-bigfiles...

Wrong reference but not qualified for whoosh ;) I was thinking more of 1+2+3+... to infinity. But it's 8.something am, office is empty and I have Machiavellian things to get on with.

ITYM 1-1+1-1+1...
That does not converge, but it does not grow to infinity either. All partial sums are 0 or 1.

No, just misremembered which infinite series was which. I thought the 1+1-1... one was the one with a -1/12 infinite sum
That does not converge, but it does not grow to infinity either. All partial sums are 0 or 1.
Leading many algorithms to give the limit at infinity as 1/2, even though it's strictly undefined

This is why I didn't flag and merely observed that I wasn't sure

It seriously makes sense for this, though. Right Tool For The Job:
- Free cross-compiling, with no #ifdefs. There's only one (set of files) that uses platform conditional compilation. (conditional compilation is
foo_test.go
,foo_windows.go
,foo_windows_test.go
) - You're shipping binaries and you get garbage collection. Can anyone honestly tell me that Ruby would hold up to the speed of the C git tools?

Conditional compilation is a little more robust than just filenames - you can put boolean expressions of various build-time tags, which by default include the current version of go (go1.4) and the previous versions, the OS you're compiling for (linux, windows, plan9, nacl, various BSDs), the architecture (arm, 386, amd64, js), the compiler you're using (gc, gccgo), and cgo if your compiler has support for calling native C functions from Go code.
