I think a simple “const” would have also done the trick. Sometimes -O3 is clever enough to figure out that the value is never written, so it makes it an asm constant.

I, on the other hand, appreciate Safari not being an utter resource-hog and a battery drainer. I don't need all these shiny features. I'm ok with "dumbed down" static sites.

Not exactly what you asked, but a few squats, just once per day, really help with blood circulation to legs. Not having enough blood circulation results in leg discomfort no matter how comfortable your chair is.

People need to stop assuming that memory safety == functional safety. They are two very different things. Rust ensures memory safety, but it won't stop you from making logical mistakes. You can't be "sure about correctness&qu

This trend of taking StackOverflow polls as global facts has to stop. It is so misleading. Not everyone is on StackOverflow, and not everyone on StackOverflow participates in the polls.

I'd never pay for your compiler. I don't care what features it has over Zig.

Why can't we have a direct statement like "The web isn't getting slower", instead of click-baity question titles?

I don’t self-promote usually, but I asked some people on Reddit[1] if they would like an educational stream on embedded systems, and a lot of people said yes. I’m doing one on Sunday most probably. Feel free to join in because that’s one of

It is not a standard practice. You do want to verify your write though by reading the written blocks back.

This is good, even though it could be a possible result of VW/BMW/Mercedes lobbying efforts. Human life safety is the top priority in any industry in Germany. Regulations are keeping Germany a little behind in the innovation race

Just another reason why I am never going to touch the new reddit with a 10-foot pole. If they phase out the “old” design, I’m done with it.

Problematic for whom? The average citizen doesn't realize the threats and has no idea of safe/unsafe, so there must be someone to decide for them. People who are aware of threats, and are willing to accept the risks can surely fin

I agree that it is confusing. Here [1] is something that can help new C programmers to understand these kind of declarations. It gets easier after a while. [1]. http://c-faq.com/decl/spiral.anderson.html
