I like lazy initialization like this:

const char *get_name(void) {
  if (NULL == name_) {
    name_ = generate_name();
  }
  return name_;
}

From this press release:

"Google defends its unprecedented intrusion into private e-mail conversations by arguing that Gmail subscribers knowingly consent to it. But those who send e-mails to Gmail subscribers from elsewhere (like Earthlink or Yahoo!) will not be asked for their consent before the whole e-mail conversation is analyzed."

Guess what: senders aren't asked for consent when recipients do anything with e-mails. I can post my e-mail on the side of a bus if I want to, and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

As long as Sen. Figueroa is at it, why not outlaw the "forward" button on all e-mail clients?

Aaargh!

This was a fun Windows bug to catch. ("fun" is a euphemism for "not fun.")

Here's my pseudocode:

HWND g_hwnd = NULL;
main() {
  // Spin off a thread that discovers other people on the network.
  startDiscovery(myCallback);
  ... do the main work in my app ...
  // Cleanup.
  if (IsWindow(g_hwnd)) {
    DestroyWindow(g_hwnd);
  }
  assert(!IsWindow(g_hwnd));
}

myCallback() {

  g_hwnd = CreateWindow("I found someone!!!");

}

Now, can you tell why the assertion fails?

There are plenty of comparisons out there on the web, so I won't rehash that; I'll just relate my personal experience.
