Perpetual Motion finally achieved!
  • C++: you sure you want to do this? This will either: a) blow your foot off b) be too fast to be measured in micro-benchmarks.

    b. B. B. a. then B.

    You have chosen to simultaneously blow your arm off and be the fastest code thing on the planet. Congrats. Yes.

  • gut pull
  • I was suspicious as heck of this link, but I thank you for being benign.

  • gut pull
  • My most common typo is gti <random command> and I'm considering to alias it as rm -rf --no-preserve-root /

  • The easiest problem
  • name your function as malloc() and see to world burn and generate bugs at factorial rate.

  • That Nim Flashbacks
  • Lettme introduce you to ackermann's function:

    int ack(int m, int n) {
        if (m == 0) {
            return n+1;
        } else if((m > 0) && (n == 0)){
            return ack(m-1, 1);
        } else if((m > 0) && (n > 0)) {
            return ack(m-1, ack(m, n-1));
        }
    }
    

    You won't run out of stackoverflows any time soon.

  • Anon envies the AVGN's power
  • A lot. That's the answer.

  • It's time to mentally prepare yourselves for this

  • After 362879 wrong answers you will pass. Or after 2,0922789888×10¹³ tries if it's a fancy 4x4 grid.

  • Rebase Supremacy
  • To produce 1 commit, I end up rebasing the damm thing at least 3 times. If there is an problem, it's at least 2³ times.

  • You can certainly change it. But should you?
  • volatile int blackhole;
    blackhole = 1;
    const int X = blackhole;
    const int Y = blackhole;
    

    Compiler is forbidden to assume that X == 1 would be true. It's also forbidden to assume that X == Y. const just means the address and/or the data at the address is read only. const volatile int* const hwreg; -> "read only volatile value at read only address hwreg". Compiler can assume the hwreg address won't magically change, but can't assume the value read from that address won't.

  • Review Please
  • Please, no, I get flashbacks from my 6-month journey (still ongoing...) of the code review process I caused/did. Keeping PR scope contained and small is hard.

    From this experience, I wish GitLab had a "Draft of Draft" to tell the reviewer what the quality of the pushed code is at: "NAK", "It maybe compiles", "The logic is broken" and "Missing 50% of the code", "This should be split into N PRs". This would allow openly co-develop, discuss, and steer the design, before moving to nitpicking on the naming, formatting, and/or documentation details of the code, which is likely to drastically change. Drafts do work for this, but the discussions can get uncomfortably long and convolute the actual finishing of the review process.

    Once both reviewer(s) and the author agree on the code design, the "DraftDraft" could be collapsed into a link in an normal Draft to be mocked next. The scope of such draft would be limited by the earlier "DraftDraft".

  • Brainfuck is the sixth circle
  • Holy cow.

  • And don't forget RTFM
  • And you have bootstrapped an B compiler on that?

  • Yuzu & Citra devs fold to Nintendo's demands | Pay $2.3million to settle, take down github, domains, patreon, discord, with immediate effect.
  • I think the difference with Dolphin is that it now emulates an extinct system(s), so it cannot possibly compete with the actual thing. They did have a close call last year, if I remember, and they pretty quickly went into "jettison all illegal shit out of the code base NOW." -mode.

  • My Git Knowledge
  • The day I configured git to use Geany for commit messages with a separate config specifically tuned for this, it improved my life by 300%

    ~$ cat ~/bin/gitedit
    #!/bin/sh
    exec /usr/bin/geany -i -s -t -c ~/.config/gitgeany $@
    

    Then in git config: git config --global core.editor "gitedit"

  • Bugs fixed
  • Bugs that have existed for +3 years in a component and are nearly immediately visible to the end user. Oldest source line I touched was from before 2010.

  • Bugs fixed
  • It's a FOSS project, so wish me luck, as you can now get it in the mail eventually.

    I had to run a makepkg today, which now includes my self-written pieces of code in master. So I'm eating my own dog food now, and it's good. Also, the itch from before has somehow relieved.

  • I found my home.

    I thinki I found m ome mmy server.

  • Reaper of the VMAs.

  • My job here is done
  • This cannot be an coincidence. I may actually finished something this time.

  • Fixing ancient bugs

    I replaced the equivalent of floor in a code base and I was surprised it didn't break. Yet.
