Re:Solving `UK Passport Application` with Haskell on Sunday June 29, 2025 @05:36AM (#44411633)
Another reason is that the UK forbids the child to have different names on their japanese passport and their UK passport, which is often (almost always?) the case
yeah unsigned are really about opting to perform modular arithmetic, or for mapping hardware registers.

C is weakly typed, the basic types are really not to maintain invariants or detect their violation

I worked in the same period for a finnish startup (iobox.fi) that ended up being acquired by telefonica.

Our mobile and web portal was made of j2ee services producing XML which were then transformed by XSLT into HTML or WAP

At the time it blew me away that they expected web designers to work in an esoteric language like that

if you want to know, it's a fork of google gyp, which is a C/C++ project/build system generator. I.e. it's a bit similar to CMAKE, a tool to describe native code projects and what needs to be built in order to make executables and dlls.

It's a python codebase, largely abandoned by google. They used to use it for building Chrome.

Same here, I only move to the arrangement after I spent enough time on a piece in session view. It's also the place I put jamming results
Re:SDL3 new GPU API merged on Sunday September 01, 2024 @07:00AM (#41415858)

I was disgusted by the ad. Made me feel it got scripted by a machine, due to how it just is a display of domination of machine over man, and of disrespect for creators from around the world
Re:I Improved My Rust Compile Times by 75% on Wednesday March 20, 2024 @04:10AM (#39763861)
