Or CMake or the C/C++-oriented http://floooh.github.io/fips/ (a high-level build system "similar to Rust’s Cargo or Javascript’s NPM, but for C/C++ projects.").

I read Please website (main page, "Getting Started" and FAQ), and still ain't sure about the benefits. To the maintainers of Please: please make cases and user stories, also comparisons with other build tools. Many visitors w

Reading your words, it looks like you have made a kind of make replacement that just works. Following your link, it looks like... what ? I don't know, some tool that checks some build configuration, augments C and postprocesses executa

Works here. Shallow recommendations. Ads for objects on Amazon are most certainly real, though I did not click on them.

Isn't that a problem, like "let's get rid of Google and all the evildoers because they know too much about us" then "oh we realize we created another one which knows too much about us"?

Good idea. make -j without a number should do that, instead of spawning processes like there’s no tomorrow.

Interesting, but how does nproc get the right information ? OMP_NUM_THREADS and OMP_THREAD_LIMIT are in principle extra limitations, not the main source of information, right ?

Long story short, this is related to keeping focus when you're working as a freelancer, with the same laptop used for work and personal life. There's a simple solution that has been working well for me for years: have 2 local acco

On a related topic, there's this program, not an editor but a binary explorer, which looks somehow relevant to reverse engineering: https://hachoir.readthedocs.io/ The principe seems very good, like a wireshark for bin

In French, "écrit" corresponds to "written", not "create". Stays relevant somehow. "Create" translates to "Créer".

The selfie on a roof marked "Paris, France" is nowhere near Paris. Looks like some big city in or near Russia. Marketing "evidence" with false advertising feels... wrong.

Same conclusion as others: no source, no figures, TFA is basically an ad. There are already tools to compress on a PC and decompress on a small machine, with more-than-decent compression rate and decompression speed, for example Exomizer h

This is an implementation "detail" out of reach of domain owners anyway. What I found worrisome is that, if I understand correctly, moving domain between registrar sometimes wakes dragons. From the article it looks like this coul

Ironically, the whole setup implies a conversation between two intelligent beings that is totally modeled after ours. One would justify this with "it's written this way because of translation into English". Funny anyway, pl

Strange thing. Very geeky, like sci-fi becoming real. Also, this might be a must for people who have to code but cannot type. But for other people, even if this works, can it actually be faster, or more beneficial on some way, than typing

Yeah, I used that, too. Very handy to code a game in Basic. Firmware even allowed to draw characters at pixel-precise position (enabled with TAGON, disabled with TAGOFF). Since characters are defined with only "on" and "off&
