What is the point of wayland-keylogger[1] that is linked in the article? Do Wayland compositors normally run under a different user account than the one that logged in via the login manager? I see this as being an issue with full filesystem

I'm not debating that there are a lot of projects written in C++. I only argue that C is enough to be able to learn about state-of-the-art tech in this area. I'm not even going to debate C++'s merits at this point. Everybody&

I think the OP is referring to the imperative version using recursion as inefficient. It isn't tail-recursive, so the stack will grow to infinity, even though we only need a constant amount of memory (plus the memory to store the list)

It's a bit ironic, but the author repeated the same error every time they wrote the formula involving sigma. What they wanted to write was $\sum_{0}^{n} k$. What they actually wrote ($\sum_{0}^{n} n$) is equal to $n \cdot (n+1)$ (witho
