Yes, that is still undefined behavior. Behavior being defined or not is a standards-level distinction, not a compiler one.

They can also occur from defined behavior. The point being that they're completely besides one another.

Generally a good writeup, but the article seems a bit confused about undefined behavior. > What is the dreaded UB? I think the best way to understand it is to remember that, for any running program, there are FATES WORSE THAN DEATH. If s

I'll disagree with that on a few points. Britain was inarguably the most diverse, with almost no attempt at creating cultural homogenity (and it really wasn't that great for anyone not Scottish or English.) Rome attempted it to so

Which is funny, because as a C++ developer it makes it less appealing.

I think you misunderstand the issue being raised, hence your confusion. The "difficulty" isn't the individual facets of the system, but piercing the opaqueness of the entire picture without wholly specializing into it. On the

Who is saying Google should ship the reference implementation? It's a standard, and Google has the labor to write their own implementation.

The OpenSSH/XZ exploit from a year or so ago was actually a systemd exploit[1], fun fact. Looking back on the time I spent in systemd land, I don't miss it at all. My system always felt really opaque, because the mountain of under

"Open" is a misnomer, I really wish people would stop throwing it around with regards to ARM systems because it's a serious problem. Apple's devices are no better or worse about this. It's just the nature of the SoC

I don't think that's an appropriate conclusion to draw from a single point of data.

I don't think that's the right metaphor to use here, it exists at a different level than what I would consider "reinventing the wheel". That to me is more some attempt to make a novel outward-facing facet of the program

I keep hearing about this "year of the Linux desktop" but I have no idea what that means. It's been a comfortable OS since ext3 support was added. Does it mean majority market share or something?

You're right, Xorg and X11 should be abandoned and for good reason. That should have happened decades ago. But Wayland doesn't actually fix anything that really needed fixing, other than wiping the slate clean. It's a good th

Most phone radios have RX/TX around the 40-30cm band already. It's just a question of having arbitrary send/receive, and I guarantee you the hardware is designed to make that as impossible as they can.
