I just ate some sugar and I don't feel depressed anymore

Man the Followers feed sounds good in theory, but in practice when the platform becomes big enough, it's so easy for the bots to follow everybody and clog it up with spam...

Shipped this syntax to flag.h

I'm glad you guys enjoyed my latest web development course. No go and use your newly acquired powers to make the world better!

People like to accuse me of not making anything useful, so I shipped my first ever SaaS to prove my haters wrong

Would you unfollow me if I did a web development stream?

"People smarter than you already figured it all out" is the stupid people's way to tell other stupid people to stay stupid, ignorant, and uncurious, because they need to justify their stupidity somehow. The question is not WHO (smart, not smart) made it this way. But WHY.

The Grace Hopper's lectures online are so cool, it's hard to believe she created COBOL.

TIL C++ doesn't support anonymous structs. It also doesn't support proper designated initializers (but I already knew that). This language diverged from C so much I'm legit thinking it is not worth supporting for a C library.

AI bros who think that they can outsource their thinking to an LLM. I propose to outsource your breathing to a fan. Powerful enough fan can circulate the air better than any human. And their power will only grow exponentially. 🚀

Asking real questions with this one

Wait, isn't "JavaScript Hoisting" simply an emergent behavior of how a Toy Scripting Language would work if you first parse the file and then evaluate it? Why such a pretentious name for this?

I mean One of these is tedious to read and takes way too many lines to write in order to acomplish any useful effect. The other is ASM.

lol

Isn't it convenient how you can slowly enshittify pretty much anything and then dismiss the people who complain about it as just some boomers who's lamenting over "better times of the past"?

I really like this idea of using fog to fade in and out of the menu.

TIL this is totally valid declaration of a global variable `x` in C but not in C++

Programming tools used to be made for professionals. Now they are mostly made for noobs.

English as a Programming Language sucks cause your computer can do things that are barely describable in a natural language. By using English you willfully nerfing yourself as an Engineer, if you ever wanted to be one of course. Some don't and it's fine, just dont delude yourself

Right...

TIL: Erlang has MegaSex, regular size Sex, and MicroSex

Well, I'm glad that SDL solved the wrapping problem of SDL_GetTicks() by using 64 bit integers but they didn't warn me that it TOO wraps every ~584942417 years! How am I suppose to use this for my high availability software?

LLMs are not useful even for looking up documentation.

Man, we should've actually used `+` sign for command line flags instead of `-`. Like this > foo +arg1 +arg2 ... And instead we should've interpreted `-` as "ignore this flag for now", so I we could quickly enable/disable the flags as we run the same command via up and enter.

I don't understand forcing people to use the AI tools at work. Just let people use whatever they want and fire the least performant ones. If your AI tools are so good, everyone who's not using them will be naturally fired. Are you that afraid face the reality?

I wasn't joking btw

Wtf, compiling JavaScript to Native App is actually easy! You don't need C anymore!

Ok guys, I talk a lot about programming here, but how about I actually go ahead and do it? What if I tried streaming some programming on let's say Twitch or whatever. Would you actually join and watch me?

How to draw eye

The fact that we put TODOs in our source code means that we want to have an Issue Tracker right in our codebase.

haha c code generator goes brrrr

Wrote my first Hello, World in C. It's not perfect, but I think it's pretty good for a first try.

Egyptians wtf

I love it when Sonic says “I’m unable to generate a reply that meets our content guidelines”, SO COOL!!!!!

Rust is the Neovim of Programming Languages

An average Web Framework landing page be like

Every time I ask an LLM anything about Programming I end up insulting it.

The more I understand how success and popularity works the more I realize that there are probably millions of Einsteins dying in poverty every year.

now recording...

It's a funny feeling to find some piece of actually working code in the wild, look at the copyright date, and realize that it was written before you were born.

It's kinda insane how if you really love Programming you should probably not go into the current software development industry because you are certainly not gonna be doing enough Programming to be content with your life.

I cheated a bit with the 3d render. Had to go back to C. Sorry but there are no sane libraries in python to do headless rendering. I even tried Godot but it doesn’t render in headless mode. I ended up using @tsoding.bsky.social Olive.c cos I thought it was funny. Gonna replace it with raylib soon

I'm currently looking for contract work. I can help with game/engine/tools programming in Odin/C/C++. Drop me a line on [email protected] if it sounds interesting. See zylinski.se/portfolio/ for examples of my work.

My frustration with Linux Programing is immeasurable

Boolish on ints

Right...

British cuisine is fascinating!

Infinite Dopamine

The more I develop programming languages the more I realize that there is not that much difference between interpreted and compiled languages. Compilation is just a form of interpretation. Lisp was thinking in the right direction. But nobody so far managed to close the gap.

It's that time of the year again... Dynamic Array in C! #programming
