  • And yet it's still easy to write spaghetti code in Java. Just abuse inheritance. Where is this function implemented? No one knows but the compiler!

  • I would fix that bug but the complete rewrite that management has had me working on for the past two years will make it obsolete anyway.

  • Mom, put down the phone, I'm using the modem!

  • C++ Moment

  • That's when you break out valgrind because you certainly are using uninitialized memory.

  • C++ Moment

  • I'm trying to remember the last time I actually had a core file. I think core dumps have been disabled by default on Linux since at least 2000.

  • I don't use Ruby anymore, but I still use irb everyday as a command line calculator.

  • Tradition is just dead people's baggage. Doug Stanhope.

  • I'm not great with gdb but I think using the x cmd shows them.

  • Your result is correct, is just not displaying the leading zeros.

  • It was definitely DDJ.. back in the early 90s, right? I once asked Walter Bright (creator of D) if they were related and he told me it was just a naming coincidence.

  • ♪I went to school and I got OpenD♪

  • Known to cause heisenbugs. They're bugs that disappear when you try to measure them with a debugger or a printf.

  • Yeah back before github existed, we used sourceforge to host opensource, and you had to use CVS. Then later Subversion.

  • One of the people reverse engineering the M1 GPU for Asahi Linux is a catgirl vtuber: https://www.youtube.com/asahilina

  • Nah.. wrap entire templates in @if statements.

  • It's kinda amazing how someone can work so hard to sabotage their own public image.

  • The problem is that if you send a message just blindly, you can be tricked into sending spam to millions of addresses. I do one thing that prevents that, but does violate the standard, I verify there's only 1 '@' in the address.. this technically prevents people with '@'s in their name, but they probably find it impossible to do anything with that address anyway.

  • If you're going to do a text adventure, don't deprive yourself of using the most English friendly dsl ever, inform 7.

  • State machines always make me think of the Disk II controller on the Apple II. It uses a state machine to implement reading and writing sectors to disk.
