Hype for the Future 139I → The GNU C Compiler

Overview The GNU C Compiler, gcc, is part of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) and is identified as the primary system shell command based on build-essential in Ubuntu and the vast majority of Linux distributions otherwise based on Debian (.deb). The package names may vary, however slightly, on different types of kernel operating systems, but gcc remains an integral compiler for the vast majority of Linux, BSD, Solaris, and other UNIX-like implementations of operating systems containing GNU […]

A sufficiently advanced C preprocessor is indistinguishable from another language.

Looks like I got laid off today.

If anyone’s looking for a C++ developer with 5 years of experience, feel free to reach out. I also work with Python, Go, and C.

I’m open to freelance work too - programming and pixel art 🎨

Feel free to DM me 🙂💻

El inquietante caso de la Estructura Misteriosa

¿Qué pensarías de un programa que imprime los elementos de un <code>struct</code> sin acceder a sus campos?. ¿Inquietante verdad?. Si que lo es. Cuando vi esto por primera vez me quedé perplejo, o como se dice ahora, me quedé como…. What?! eso compila?. Luego miré el ensamblador generado y todo tomó sentido. Si estás tan sorprendido como yo, quizás deberías seguir leyendo :)</p>

Knuth's merge-sort in C. Definitely in the style of mathematician programming.

It's an accident of history, really.

The whole idea of atomically updating critical files so that a running system never sees them in a partly written state only really took hold in the 1990s.

Whereas editing configuration files with text editors that truncated and rewrote in place was theretofore generally the norm, and one had to have extra tools like vipw to make atomicity guarantees.

C standard libraries had stabilized the decade before. And the C++ libraries effectively took the C libraries as templates for what functionality to offer.

The rather sad part of this is that Microsoft had System.IO.File::Replace() in the .NET library, based upon the ReplaceFile() Win32 function, years ago.
