Nobody mentions $_ ? It gives you the last argument used, so: cat filename.txt grep "what I want" $_ expands "$_" to "filename.txt"

I'm not a big BASIC fan, so I've done my stuff in C, since it was a Motorola 68k on the TI-Voyage 200. I don't remember exactly how (it's 15+ year ago), but you could mark your app as a "system app" which was n

Annex K is optional and the only compiler I'm aware of implementing it is MSVC (and only Microsoft wanted that in the standard), so the support for it will be nonexistent in "normal" tooling. If you need it, check if MS has s

Apple is great at charging? No, they are not. I have a 2019 Macbook Pro with an Intel i9. When working, the i9 pretty much gets throttled down to the performance of an i5 because the thermal design is terrible, but it's a different sto

Pixel phones seem to be an exception from that. Let's hope Google doesn't kill them too.

The game wasn't always at $30. I saw it for $20 a few years ago (regular price) and I believe it was even lower before, like $15, but I'm not sure. There is also a Nintendo Switch release, so they will have to pay for the Dev-Kit&

IIRC Texas Instruments uses 68k CPU's for their calculators. I'm pretty sure my TI Voyage 200 I've bought in highschool (15+ years ago) uses one and it's still great.

GPS can be easily spoofed. Back in the university days, we (me + a few friends) used to get some radios and antennas to create a signal stronger than the one coming from satellites. It was always fun when the semester started and all freshm

Photographing public space is somehow different from monitoring it with a camera 24/7. Here in Germany, installing a camera which also captures the sidewalk next to your property or a part of your neighbors property would be illegal.
