The battlefield changes as kids age. It’s impossible to have any realistic discussion about sleep habits without discussing the elephant in the room. What is your device policy and how do you manage screen time, what your bedtime routine is

Same, as the father of three children, I believe a lot of it has to do with sleep pattern conditioning. You are literally training minds to sleep on a rigid schedule to keep your own sanity. That implies sticking to rigid timing as much as

You should always seek out the best. From watching lots of Everyday Astronaut streams over the years, I knew the stream would be the best live experience because they care about and focus on the production. NASA cares and focuses on the roc

Yes, please try! One of the main motivations for doing all this work is to slim down both the amount of code that has to be delivered and executed by providing everything that's needed by the platform. In addition, you're slimming

Welcome to the club. It’s like when people say “Bloomberg Terminal for X”. You just can’t really say anything because everyone knows it’s not Ghostty, based on it or will ever be it, but it’s about the vibe… and if you then chase after them

Completely possible. In the early 90s everyone was buying SGI Indys to run Apache on and put the cool “Powered by SGI” badge on their site. I admin’d a local ISP then and that Indy was on my desk and IRIX was my daily driver. Their UI just

Yes, using the same Gtk example, the way you’d forward declare GtkLabel without including gtklabel.h in your header would be: struct _GtkLabel; typedef struct _GtkLabel GtkLabel; // Use GtkLabel* in declarations

Sure, the parent was commenting more about the capability existing in Ada in contrast to C. Ada variable length local variables are basically C alloca(). The interesting part in Ada is returning variable length types from functions and havi

You can allocate dynamically on the stack in C as well. Every compiler will give you some form of alloca().

FWIW, Coverity (maybe others) has a checker that creates an error if it detects tagged union access without first checking the tag. It’s not as strict as enforcing which fields belong to which tag values, but it can still be useful. I’d muc

In C++ you would have a protected constructor and related friend utility class to do the parsing, returning any error code, and constructing the thing, populating an optional, shared_ptr, whatever… don’t make constructors fallible.

You can play tricks if you’re willing to compromise on the ABI: typedef struct foo_ foo; enum { FOO_SIZE = 64 }; foo *foo_init(void *p, size_t sz); void foo_destroy(foo *p); #define FOO_ALLOCA() \ foo_init(alloca

I got the impression the author was implying because CHAR_BIT is enforced to be 8 that uint8_t and char are therefore equivalent, but they are different types with very different rules. E.g. `char p = (char )&astruct` may violate stri

Please don’t buy into “no const”. If you’ve ever worked with a lot of C/C++ code, you really appreciate proper const usage and it’s very obvious if a prototype is written incorrectly because now any callers will have errors. No serious

A quick search finds many COBOL checkers. I’d be very surprised if a modern model was not able to fix its own mistakes if connected to a checker tool. Yes, it may not be able to one shot it perfectly, but if it can quickly call a tool once
