that's wrong?
- badtension 3y agoNo, but this is a very niche thing to know and if I remember correctly gcc has a widely used specific extension for that which would not be accepted in that case.
- mhss 3y agoBeing pedantic about standards and expecting people to recite them perfectly as a way to assess skill or seniority is what is wrong. Even when you are implementing a 'standard' there's room for robustness principles (liberal in what you accept, strict with what you send) that should be weighted instead of blindly following a 'standard'.
