I've always wanted it to work this way. However it'd only work if you had a case with the magnetic cover to turn on the device. Otherwise someone would pick up their un-cased kindle with the page lock screen, start reading, and th

I used the term "early access" when I should've used "private beta". The sign up is just for me to have an email addresses to send the private beta when the next update goes out, and I'll follow up for feedback

I'll be sending out the a macOS version to another wave of beta users after I fix an outstanding issue, if you sign up (at bottom of article) and mention this comment I can make sure you're in that wave.

Thank you! Yeah it can be used for any type of program, but I haven't been able to think of anything besides compilation that creates enough processes to be interesting. I'm open to ideas!

OP Here. Thats an interesting idea. What The Fork knows all the commands run, and every path they read/write, so I should be able to make it estimate build time just by looking at what files were touched.

(OP here) Thanks! My call with the Mozilla engineer was cut short, so we didn't have time to go into detail about what he found, I want to look into it myself.

1. The image at the top of the article makes it clear the segments aren't contiguous 2. iterating a 4 billion item segmented array would have 26 cache misses. Not a big deal.

feel free to call it a "levelwise-allocated pile"

Not sure what you mean by that, but if you're trying to imply that C is not relevant: https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/ Plus an article about C was at the top of hacker news all day today.

Thanks, this post is about C. On some projects you must use C.

msvc 19.39 is the first to support it, which I mention in the article. You can confirm it didn't work up through 19.38 in godbolt [1]. I don't use Visual Studio, so I don't know what version of that first started using msvc

This is addressed in the footnotes. casting is not the core of the type safety. Read the whole article.

Author here. It's worth noting that no work is being done in the macros of my article, they compile down to a normal c function call which you can step through in a debugger. There is little benefit in monomorphizing the implementation

Author here. Binary heaps and linked lists are different use cases. A binary heap must read the data you put in it to store it correctly, but a linked list doesn't. If I were writing a generic binary heap, maybe I would weigh my option

Author here. Not quite. The key idea is about using a union to associate type information with a generic data type. Type casting a function is not the only way to use that type information. I discuss that as well as the C23 changes in the f

This is a great example of why replacing the middle of a word with numbers is a bad idea. it makes the word less accessible.

Bottom right corner, to the right of the 5. I just updated the app to tell you how many cells are blank. If it's less than 4, it'll select them so you see where they are.

When the whole thing is solved it says "you did it". You missed a cell.

The improvement needed is to have a human construct the puzzles and lay out run lines, cells, and groups more tastefully than a program can.
