Re:Show HN: I made a full Ethereum account-proof circuit in Circom on Sunday July 27, 2025 @10:32AM (#44701606)
Almost correct! Though the system consists of 2 tokens. BETH which is 1:1 ERC-20 receipt of burnt ETH, and WORM which has a limited cap & limited emission of 50 WORM per 30 minutes which can be mined by consuming BETH :)

nice job! now it's time for the prover part :)

So glad you liked it!

wow, i envy you! :) i have been working on a really simple self-compiling C compiler for some time, was wondering if you are interested in adding it to your OS haha. but if GCC works fine, then i don't see a reason :d
Re:Show HN: Banan-OS, an Unix-like operating system written from scratch on Saturday December 07, 2024 @04:45AM (#42348528)
can you compile and run smth like gcc in your OS?

have done that already :(

that’s why i love HN. tnx for the links!
Re:Show HN: My C compiler compiled itself on Wednesday December 04, 2024 @02:34PM (#42321134)
the asms should be identical, so the binaries should be identical too, unless the linker is undeterministic
Re:Show HN: My C compiler compiled itself on Wednesday December 04, 2024 @09:48AM (#42317936)
perfect explanation, tnx!
Re:Show HN: My C compiler compiled itself on Wednesday December 04, 2024 @05:40AM (#42316250)
i think it just supports smth like 70% of C. I didn't bother supporting floating-point operators, or arrays (I mean, malloc and pointers are fine) or etc. I just wanted smth small and self-hosting!

i learnt that building a c compiler isn't that hard, just takes time :)
Re:Show HN: My C compiler compiled itself on Wednesday December 04, 2024 @05:37AM (#42316225)
thanks man!

yes that makes sense. unfortunately 30cc is not able to compile that syntax, and will probably give type-checker errors when passing a void* to pointer of another type. but will implement it sometime soon!

Thanks! The third step proves that the assembly code generated by the second-step compiler is valid even when compiling a big C project.

tnx!

tnx!

Ask HN: Will someone here review my computer-science book?

Posted by keyvank on Thursday April 11, 2024 @04:29PM
from the ask-hn dept.

I finally found a publisher willing to publish my book (CRC Press)! As part of their process, they asked me to introduce them 5 reviewers, preferably 'previous authors with similar books or journal articles.' Since I'm a first-time author, I don't know anyone who could do this for me. I was curious if there are folks here who could help me with this?Find the book here: https://keyvan.me/tsp
