For encryption, as opposed to hashing, you can’t have multiple inputs map to the same output, because then you wouldn’t be able to decrypt the output.

There's a severe lack of good libraries of this type; all the UI libraries want to invent their own controls and rendering instead. I think this is a shame, demonstrating more than a small amount of NIH. Yes, different platforms have

A better example of address uniqueness being a problem is with code like: struct Marker {}; struct Foo { Marker marker; int64_t number; }; If you write the equivalent in C with GCC extensions, or Rust, sizeo

That optimization is quite fragile. For example, try putting `puts("hello");` at the beginning of `add`. Now neither GCC nor Clang performs the optimization. Why? Because `puts` could theoretically modify the value behind the r

On many operating systems, including macOS and Windows, the only ABI-stable interface is a userland-to-userland interface. Application code loads a shared library vended by the system and calls functions from that library like open() or Cr

But that’s just to generate the C file, right? You still need to compile that C file, which is the biggest bottleneck.

The question isn’t whether there’s some way to do arithmetic on raw pointers, but whether you can take a pointer to a subobject and expect the GC to keep the object alive for you. In Go you can do this, but you can’t in Java or C#, I bel

If there’s an “I Agree” button you have to click, it’s a “clickwrap” contract, which courts in the US generally treat as enforceable. [1] If the terms are just linked somewhere, it’s a “browsewrap” contract, which may or may not be enforcea

That’s like saying the operating system has version control built in, no fancy tools needed, because you can `cp my-code.c original-my-code.c`, edit `my-code.c`, and have `original-my-code.c` just in case you’d like to reset your code to th

It depends on the brand. For instance, as someone else noted in this thread, Impossible has clear labeling. [1] An example of the opposite might be Just Mayo, which is not, in fact, just mayo. In 2015 the FDA sent it a warning letter [2],

ABI, which calling conventions are one part of, only affects how different pieces of code within the operating system talk to each other. It’s not uncommon to customize it - for instance, Windows does too. [1] Having a custom ABI does not

Which is why you use vsync, ensuring the game renders once for each frame your monitor shows, as opposed to having the game just guess when it should present frames - which can produce tearing or be at the wrong frame rate entirely.
