What’s your preferred default pronoun? As far as I’m aware, there isn’t a universally accepted replacement, since any pronoun comes with drawbacks. ‘he’ & ‘she’ are gendered, ‘it’ typically refers to non-sentient things, and ‘they’ can cause confusion about number. Of course, there’s also neopronouns, but people have come up with a billion, and there’s no consensus or standard, so I can’t confirm the person I’m talking to will understand.

This guy has made a whole lot of tutorials for various assembly languages and systems, including the pet. The website has text tutorials, but if you prefer he also has a YouTube channel.

I struggle to learn rust because the semantics and syntax are just so awful. I would love to be enthusiastic about rust, since every seems to love it, but I can’t get over that hurdle. Backporting the features into C, or even just making a transpiler from C to rust that uses annotations would be great for me. But the rust community really does not seem interested in making stepping stones from other languages to rust.

I don’t understand how not using a keyword to define a function causes the meaning to change depending on imports. I’ve never run into an issue like that before. Can you give an example?

After reading a lot of comments in this thread, I’m not sure I know what spaghetti code is. I thought spaghetti code was when the order of execution was obfuscated due to excessive jumps and GOTOs. But a lot of people are citing languages without those as examples of spaghetti code. Is this just a classic “I don’t like this programming language, and I don’t know much about it.” Or is there something I’m missing?

You could do this in basic ASCII, with only three defines. replace "_ " with “{”, replace “_;” with “}”, and “_” with nothing. If your compiler processes macros in the correct order, it will become valid code. (You would use semicolons as the vertical lines)

I would be so much more positive about this if you linked the actual source, not just an article that regurgitates everything word for word. Also, why is this article on ‘indian defense review?’ India and Pakistan nearly had a nuclear war this morning.

Are you being sarcastic? I can’t tell.

That’s not what I’m saying at all. What I’m trying to say is that I can’t think of any way a program working with numeric types could start outputting string types. I could maybe believe a calculator program that disables exceptions could do that, but even then, who would do that?

I refuse to believe the python one ever happens. Unless you are importing libraries you don’t understand, and refuse to read the documentation for, I don’t see how a string could magically appear from numeric types.

Anything that is turning complete & has enough ram can emulate x86, and an x86 emulator can boot Linux.

How can you tell this is AI? I don’t see any of the characteristic AI probabilistic blurs, and the reflections & caustics seem right.

In the men’s bathroom, violating any of these rules of etiquette brings the death penalty.

Yeah, I’m not a model for good programing. I don’t program professionally, I just like challenging myself in my hobby projects.

No, I don’t do anything professionally. I just enjoy challenging myself.

I am both the left guy and right guy. If you can’t program without using a memory safe language, it’s a skill issue. But I also don’t want to switch to rust because I like the challenge of manual memory management. (Also rust’s syntax and semantics looks like it was designed by a monkey attacking a typewriter.)

Don’t know why people are down voting this. That’s canonically correct in the Jewish an Muslim traditions.

The onion is back, baby!

Countercounterpoint: Emulation is not as cool as the real thing. Especially for the PSP because it was basically a tiny DVD player.
