Google is shutting down Code Search. This also means that our forum snippets like this search for printf implementations will no longer work: Google Search: printf.c

Google has great products but virtually no good platforms. Those that do exist can be killed off at any moment. It may be above my pay grade to criticize the most successful internet company in the world, but I wish they'd undergo a shift in thinking here. It's exactly why Google Plus is incapable of overtaking Facebook too.

Orkut must be really cool for them to keep it there.
"Genuine self-esteem, however, consists not of causeless feelings, but of certain knowledge about yourself. It rests on the conviction that you — by your choices, effort and actions — have made yourself into the kind of person able to deal with reality. It is the conviction — based on the evidence of your own volitional functioning — that you are fundamentally able to succeed in life and, therefore, are deserving of that success." - Onkar Ghate

I didn't even know about this feature. Oh well, then I don't need to miss it much.
