...2012/07/17/twitter-crashes-itself-with-commas?1 Also, I've seen some recursion-related PR's in Clang, although I think that they are usually related to templates and not parsing. Also, it's easy to blow stack in quicksort if you don't tail call into the recursive invocation of the _larger_ subrange. Recursively calling into the smaller subrange guarantees that it's size is less than half of the current range, whereas a non-tail call into the larger subrange can require linear stack space if the partition isn't good. > You're distracting this man from his job of learni...

...s you really want? - Being able to pre-build and distribute? We have done that since the last 5C1990s with .deb packages. - Being able to install with minimal size? Have you queried your users? I note that among the Docker containers for R (in the "Rocker" project Carl and I run) the _larger_ ones containing RStudio plus optionally "lots from hadley" plus optionally lots of rOpenSci tend to me _more_ popular (for ease of installation of the aggregate). And while share the overall sentiment a little bit, you have to realize that it is 2016 with the corresponding bandwith and s...
