If function of vibecode is not self-evident, dispose of it. Or, to put it differently, having vibe comment does not free you of responsibility to inspect actual vibe code. If code contradicts comments, LLM is as likely to go by comments. It

Ah yes, N2625 "What we think we reserve". Basically any C program containing variable or function "top", "END", "strict", "member" and so on is non-conforming and subject to undefined behavi

Meh. No human has written the horrors llm produces. At least I am yet to see codebase like that. Let me attempt a theatrical reenactment: // Use buffer that is large enough to hold any possible value. Avoid using JSON config

Thank you for putting it in a much more correct and understandable language than I could. That is exactly what I am talking about: if you call __builtin_malloc (e.g. via macro definition in the libc header), compiler is free to do whatever

Forbidding LLM to write comments and docstrings (preferrably enforced by build and commit hook) is one of the best "hacks" for using that thing. LLM cannot help itself but emit poisonous comments.

As an example, user kentonv wrote: "I patched the memory allocator used by the Cloudflare Workers runtime to overwrite all memory with a static byte pattern on free". And compiler would, like, "nah, let's leave all that

Thanks, I did read it! Things like footnote 236: "This means that an implementation is required to provide an actual function for each library function, even if it also provides a macro for that function", where macro is shown to

You are literally scaring me now. I'd understand such things being done when statically linking or running JIT, but for "normal" program which function implementation malloc() will link against is not known during compilation

I read the text as saying the object size can be less or equal to returned memory size. Anyway, section 7 is library. As you say, replacing through loading is a common thing to do — surely compiler is not free to simply elide external libra

Closest to what you say that I can find is 5.1.2.3 §4 of N3096 In the abstract machine, all expressions are evaluated as specified by the semantics. An actual implementation need not evaluate part of an expression if it can deduce

Strong disagree. In C, malloc and free are functions, and I expect no magic to happen when calling a function. If malloc and free were keywords like sizeof, it would have been different.

Most of C++ programs written before P0593R6 depended on implementation behaviour, and were graciously allowed to not be undefined behaviour just 5 years ago. C++ as a language standard is mostly irrelevant, what one should care about is wh

Glad to hear. For me, the process does not converge — once code gets big enough (it happens fast, claude hates using existing code and writes duplicate logic every oportunity it gets) it starts dealing more damage every turn. At some point,

By reading the landing page, I feel vomited on. How is sqlite suddenly an inference engine? Why would I even? What is javascript doing in sqlite? Why any of these things have anything to do with sqlite?

Do you have a study we can read and evaluate validity of it's methods? If not, here, I can show you my opinion too!: No, what you said is completely false.

As someone from time to time peeking into googology.fandom.com , my favorite big number device probably still is loader.c, simply because of how concrete and unreachable it feels. Too bad most Friedman's work has linkrotted by now...

See 6.2.1 of RFC8881, where NFSv4 ACLs are described. They are quite similar to Windows ACLs. Here is kernel dev telling they are against adding NFSv4 ACL implementation. The relevant RichAcls patch never got merged: https://lkml

Some of us can! I certainly enjoy doing it, and according to "man 5 acl" what you assert is completely false. Unless you have a particular commit or document from kernel.org you had in mind?

Haha, sure. Sorry, it's not you, it's the ACLs (and me nerves). Have you tried configuring NFSv4 ACLs on Linux? Because kernel devs are against supporting them, you either use some other OS or have all sorts of "fun". Al
