If you have type checking but not named arguments, it provides a fair degree of sanity checking. And as much as named arguments are nice from a user perspective, they do have significant runtime overhead if the format string can be localize

(title omits: in Idris) But it's really not fair to C to exclude all the special compiler support we do have with -Werror=format=2. Given the existence of the format/format_arg attributes it's really quite powerful; the onl

I don't see the word "reach" or any relevant mention of "Linus" in either the "shaming" post or in the resignation post. Even if there was, I'm not sure I trust the word of such a drama-seeker directl

There's a difference between "not politically-loaded decades ago" and "not politically-loaded now". We still let people use the Swastika if they had a harmless tradition of using it beforetime. But if anybody new

C (and C++) code breaks all the time between toolchain versions (I say "toolchain" to include compiler, assembler, linker, libc, etc.). Some common concerns are: headers that include other headers, internal-but-public-looking na

Counterpoint: prior to going nuclear, is there any evidence that Marcan directly tried to get Linus's attention, given the huge quanity of mailing-list mail Linus is sure to get every day? I only see Danilo doing that in that thread.

`ccache icecream` with default configuration means that the build servers have to duplicate work for the common case where multiple clients build the same artifact. Now, maybe remote caching is reliable nowadays, despite its inevitable re

`ccache icecream` (like `ccache distcc`) only handles the "single client, multiple servers" case. `icecream ccache` (like `distcc ccache`) only handles the "multiple client, single server" case. `ccache icecream ccache`

It looks like there are some infelicities documented that really should be fixed: * fix that silly "got another sha256" bug, it really shouldn't be hard * optimal job count should be infinite from the perspective of the cli

That appears to only handle the distcc half. It looks like the main advantage of nocc is that it integrates the equivalent of ccache, in a way that works even when there are both multiple clients and multiple servers, without the ludicrou

I don't think that's actually a diminutive (meaning shifts to add smallness or endearment), just a colloquializer (meaning doesn't change, just becomes less formal; dialects may adopt a particular informal word as standard).

You could use a file instead, but `pipe` is the most portable way to not leave clutter on the system if something goes wrong. If you need traffic in both directions, `socketpair` is useful (and I think portable across platforms that suppo

Last I checked, there was a major caveat to this - it mucks with your PATH in intrusive ways. So it's not "just try it", it's "switch to a frankenstein system and don't turn back"

It really shouldn't be a surprise given that it took until 2022 to implement one of the basic features that everybody relies on constantly.

Also, "use a different grid" is only masking the problem, not actually fixing it. The real problem is ever using an average without also specifying some sort of bounds. For median-based data, this probably means the upper and lo

Astrology has some validity if you dig deep enough: * when should we plant this crop? * how do I generate a random number if literally any human bias is worse than a random choice? * were you the oldest (or youngest) in your class at school

"Nonsense per second" is probably a more accurate definition. Or maybe "per sale"?

For the problem this was designed for, what this is missing is an argument for why this is better than a heap with a last-resort ordering trivially added. (If you're not using this for a scheduler of course a heap doesn't make sen

That's basically what `timer_settime` does if you have a realtime scheduler.

That's about the least-bad thing about the code here - it's a workaround for the fact that Java lacks runtime support for generics. Other than its indirect use in `copy` (which in Java normally takes the parameter itself), it&#x27
