Comments on: Geeks to hold open-source campout

Those not invited to the exclusive geekfest Foo Camp set for this weekend may attend Bar Camp, a techie alternative campout.

foo bar

No mention of foo and bar being the mothers of all ambiguous variables in *nix? Shock. And where can I get me one of them fancy wardriving motorcycles? Awe.

Openwrt seems to be fine... something we should know?

so close, and yet so far...

Don't they know that "bar" is the second
metasyntactic variable; coming after "foo" and
before "baz"?

"foobar," a common programming variable

>"foobar," a common programming variable.

Actually, I don't think that's really true. I've seen thousands and thousands and thousands of lines of code, and I can't recall a _single_ instance where anyone _actually_ used "foo", "bar", or "foobar".

I'm sure somebody does, but you would think that if it were _common_ it would be in a lot of programs and readily visible to everyone.

What I _have_ seen as really common variables are things like: a, b, c, i, n, p, m, s, t, x, y, tmp, temp, and str.

Just thought I'd take an incredibly minor point and blow it up really big! :)

RE: "foobar," a common programming variable.

Oh, and I forgot 'ptr'.
