- ftxbro 3y agoThank you this is very confusing but I suspect this is probably the best answer. Like maybe the compiler example was the first one and the driver example was the second one.
- Someone 3y ago> or sometimes (IMHO wrongly, but I've seen it a few times) also used as a name for an endless loop. I think that’s because C and C++ compilers often are allowed to assume that a loop will terminate (reading https://isocpp.org/files/papers/P2809R0.html https://isocpp.org/files/papers/P2809R0.html, they do not fully agree on when they are allowed to do that)
