Also amusing is that things I wrote for win32 in 2000 still run now on Windows 11.

Got all these correct. I was expecting something more convoluted or exotic undefined behavior.

I am in agreement. You can choose not to log into Google from Chrome, for example. I don’t think Chrome misleads when it collects these specific information. Where it collects, it’s obvious— I didn’t see anything in the OP picture that was

To add to this, there are a couple of string types in Windows API in addition to C-strings, e.g., BSTR, UNICODE_STRING, etc., which are similar to strbuf and require usage of Windows API functions to manipulate or read.

I still write new applications in Win32 (or x64). If you want to ensure your app works on as many environments out of the box as possible this is the way to go. In fact, you shouldn’t even depend on DLL version of C runtime as they may not

Yeah... I was being hesitant about what to say since I work for the company, to avoid an impression that I'm promoting the technology. Basically, here's SCYTHE's client architecture: https://www.scythe.io/libr

SCYTHE's in-memory client loads an in-memory CPython interpreter/runtime, even, so you do not even have to compile .py to an exe to run on Windows, for example.

Replacing the menu interface with the ribbon interface in Win10 and Office... I am not sure what the thought process was for Microsoft to have done that. Sometimes you already have something solid and it doesn’t need change. I liked being a

Marshaling COM objects for use among different threads was fun. Remember the function 'CoMarshalInterThreadInterfaceInStream'? :-) I feel Windows' C API (i.e., Win32 API) was adopted at a larger scale than COM. It's much
