What's the point of Starlink? with 4G/5G home internet, there's no real point anymore.

Sounds like the rich kid version of me. Parents students and teachers treated me like shit throughout elementary school, went to a new school and decided I wasn't gonna take it anymore. Started misbehaving and getting suspended literal

This is about Fuchsia. First Google is gonna run Fuchsia on Linux, then linux will be removed entirely. that's what this laying the groundwork for.

I had a similar issue like 5 years ago. I just called up ASUS and shipped the board to them, I paid the shipping cost and they reprogrammed the BIOS for free, besides shipping.

Yes, third party app stores are mentioned explicitly.

Except Google didn't build those things except search. They bought Android in 2005, Youtube in 2004? and all of their other, non-search successes.

Xcode dev here, I have a certificate with a free account. You only need to pay for it if you distribute your app on the app store.

Walter, I honestly just can't trust your judgement on the future of C or C++, because all I ever see is you pushing D anytime you comment. This seems like just another gimmick to push D tbh.

that's a K&R style function definition. modern syntax is: char *Combine(char *S, char *T) { ... } which means the Combine function returns a string (char pointer), and takes as arguments two strings, S and T.

I've lately been getting segmentation faults for not casting math with diff signs, so pretty much anything can cause it.

Is remote an option? I've got 5 months left of my lease in Portland, moving isnt an option.

by bumblebritches5 6y ago
Location: Portland, Oregon. Remote: It'd be nice, but not a must have. Willing to relocate: No, I just moved here from Michigan a month ago. Technologies: C, C++, Shell Scripting (Bash), Probably other things I've forgotten about.

Uh, in 6th grade a theater worker mistook me for a college student, and he was about college age...

I taught myself C from just reading code and trying to contribute to a few projects right out of high school, no books, no school. So I don't think C has a very high learning curve, C++ on the other hand...

Looks like that proposal is dropping support for K&R function declarations, is that right?

by bumblebritches5 6y ago
Hey guys, How likely would the standard be to accept a proposal to add compile time reflection to the preprocessor, or even adopt C++'s constexpr? My use case is creating a global array in a header from static compound literals in mult

u8 exists for string constants, but not character constants. they're proposing to add u8 as a character constant prefix.

I just looked up how large the human genome is in bits (when the 4 bases are packed into 2 bits per base) the size of our genome is about 770MB. Is the Axolotl's genome really 42.5 times larger than ours?

by bumblebritches5 8y ago
That's precisely what I meant with your UCS-2 comment. What do you mean by variable width? the 4 bit header would be limited to the first code unit, the following ones would just be pure codepoint values. and that's a good point,

by bumblebritches5 8y ago
because it's the top 4 bits... you read that as a byte, then read X bits more to get the rest of the code unit. yup and yup. UTF-8 is capped at 21 bits, theoretically it can support up to 6, but it's not allowed to because of UTF-

the code unit size, byte order, and how many code units are in that codepoint. you can fit all of that information into 4 bits when you just care about minimizing the size of that mini header. I know that, because I got bored and made up a

Nah, fuck 8 bit code pages in general. have it use Unicode line endings (or, if Unicode has to be recreated, do IT right, and have it use 28 bits for codepoints and 2 bits describing the format).

HTTP headers are not anywhere near 1kb of text. the packet's themselves are only 1.5kb.
