I think Anton is wrong. Since C89 and before C23 calling an `int f();` function with arguments not matching the definition's actuals is UB. In C23 `int f();` became the same as `int f(void);`, so calling that function with any argume

TFA assumes pre-C89 C, I think: > The caller could see the declaration int f();, the actual call could have n>0 arguments, and the actual function could have m≤n parameters. Certainly if `f()` were `int f(void);` then that wouldn'

Uh, no, homes should not be airtight. You'd have a hard time closing exterior doors if they were, and anyways, houses need to be able to "breathe" to be able to keep humidity down (you don't want mold problems), oxygen

I carry an Atmotube with me to monitor VOCs and particulates, but it also measures CO2 and NOX. It's small, and it easily attaches to a backpack or belt loop with a carabiner it comes with. The only thing it's missing is differe

CDC _never_ goes away, that's for sure. Maybe just for replication to a logical replica, but you'll often need a sync from one system to another -- it just ends up happening.

No, GP is right to ask. SQLite3 for example has WITHOUT ROWIDS precisely because these INTEGER PRIMARY KEYs are a bit artificial and they add an index (by rowid) that you might not need, thus increasing your index count by one. If you hav

If you're heading home then he'll want to know where from. Oh, a restaurant? Did you have anything to drink? I smell alcohol! Step of the car please. That's one way it can go, and then he can say you were wobbly on your

There is a reprise, too. In 2014 the SCOTUS weakened 5A rights significantly, so now you are best off asserting your 6A rights (i.e., say you won't talk without your lawyer present, and then really don't talk).

The continuations in CPS are closures. Goto basically isn't. GCC's computed goto is, but generally when people say 'goto' they mean the traditional C goto, which involves no closures. The goto analogy is not great for

But corporate devices can boot any OS you might like. Sure, they have MEs that maybe you can't disable, but you can firewall them. Server kit is just not like consumer kit. Even laptops are [still, for now] a lot better than smartphon

But some of that is nonsense and incorrect. You can very much use local variables, and you'll find tons of vfork()-using code that does that and calls plenty of async-signal-safe functions. The real restrictions are: - you can

It isn't TPMs nor attestation nor DRM making this possible. It isn't secure boot either. It's walled gardens with secure boot -yes, secure boot- that the consumer can't bypass. Secure booting isn't the problem in
