I don't know if you can really fix 'electricity in Africa', there are ~56ish countries depending on which you recognize, all with competing interests and governments. Some have reasonable electrical systems and no real motiv

I like the idea of color coding the components as chunks. I think it might be even easier for a beginner to understand that way compared with syntax highlighting.

Somewhat interestingly it can be applied to distributions as well. This anecdote in the article, was also pretty interesting: > The form L = λW was first published by Philip M. Morse where he challenged readers to find a situation where

Thanks for that! I hadn't seen it yet, https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/string/byte/strdup says it will be C23 as well.

>"phat pointers" I don't know if that is a typo given you normally call them "fat pointers", but they are "pretty hot and tempting".

C2x is expected to gain the char8_t type and almost certainly will not gain any new string handling routines. In the year 2030 I am expecting to still see more rounds of posts comparing string libraries for C. With more than 4 decades of

If you wanted to slice at an arbitrary point, then you would either have to lose some data in the original string, move or copy the original string to make space for the extra delimiter/null character, or have set up the string ahead o

I mean it never said you could continue to upload for a lifetime, just that you could store a lifetime of memories. The old photos don't count against your storage.

I think part of the reason why pain is so often used as a proxy is that it is universal and it is often very visible. If there were another way for people to show effort aside from sweating, then it would probably be used less often.

I don't think I have seen one, but if you can add some other delimiter yourself or modify the file that might help. You can always use a binary(non-line) based diff. I think cperciva's thesis was on one that became bsdiff.

It would be nice if C++ could really settle on one single error handling system like this. I know the contracts proposals have been shot down several times, but those I think would help a lot. People will only really code defensively if t

Totally crazy that they didn't know where they were for 20 years and now call them stolen.

I read it as k-aughts and k8s as k-eights, and all my juniors have at first as well. These aren't great abbreviations, we just get used to them. My main issue with this project is that if you want to use k8s and are using it, you wan

So one issue I can think of with this, would be that you often mold a work to be a podcast, by adding in extra auditory elements that wouldn't work in a pure text format. Listen to the BBC world service, often in their longer pieces t

To a large degree you could imagine most of prolog programming as a set of term rewriting steps. As well as most lisp style macro programming languages. I thought the focus on Wolfram was a bit myopic. Even earlier meta and Tree-meta lang

This reminds me of the story of a competition at a university to solve some problem using a computer the fastest. The winning solution wound up just overwriting the memory where the solution would be output with a hard coded answer. If an

This is just a quick post I made after I was started working on a small operating system in D and ran into issues with the linker. I wondered how small of an executable I could make without using any unusual tools or anything outside of th
