I’m not great with gdb but I think using the x cmd shows them.

Your result is correct, is just not displaying the leading zeros.

It was definitely DDJ… back in the early 90s, right? I once asked Walter Bright (creator of D) if they were related and he told me it was just a naming coincidence.

The problem is that if you send a message just blindly, you can be tricked into sending spam to millions of addresses. I do one thing that prevents that, but does violate the standard, I verify there’s only 1 ‘@’ in the address… this technically prevents people with '@'s in their name, but they probably find it impossible to do anything with that address anyway.

If you’re going to do a text adventure, don’t deprive yourself of using the most English friendly dsl ever, inform 7.

State machines always make me think of the Disk II controller on the Apple II. It uses a state machine to implement reading and writing sectors to disk.

Depends on your language.

Another benefit from working from home: I will happily spend my own money on a good chair, keyboard, etc. I spent 20 years working in an office and there’s no way I would’ve ever brought in my own chair during that time… I would’ve had to become the chair police to prevent it from getting “reappropriated”

So it won’t work for 0.0001% of all github projects.

Interesting. A year ago I was looking for something exactly like this for distributing data between multiple servers. Everything required a ton of overhead or was too big to use. I ended up just using json. I did discover that Brotli can compress 3 gigs of json down into just 70 megs nearly instantly.

One of our data providers gives us hundred megabyte json files. Whenever there is a problem with the data they request examples, jq is invaluable in those instances.

Isn’t that what Gists are for? https://gist.github.com/

A decade ago I reverse engineered the Macventure game engine, allowing you to play Shadowgate and Deja Vu etc on modern oses. The current copyright holder then paid me to iron out the rough edges and create the official ports currently on steam.

I suppose… but when you have frameworks like Angular that update every 6 months, even the best efforts for backwards compatibility fall by the wayside.

Focus more on stability in terms of apis. We can’t be rewriting our apps constantly because they keep updating frameworks every year.

C. I’ve been programming for over 30 years and it’s the only language to survive. Imagine if I was asked this question 30 years ago and picked perl or Pascal, I’d be screwed today.

Expect isalpha is part of the standard library not an arbitrary function, a compile should be able to optimize standard calls.

I spent 20 years working for my local newspaper. It was a ton of fun and I constantly got to do new things. I did everything from making a palm pilot game to accompany our coverage of the Sydney Olympics, to an Apache module for a custom cms to iPhone and Android apps.

Now I can’t say that working for a news company is a good idea in 2023, but the point is there’s probably a company local to you that needs a wide variety of programming and isn’t a “tech giant”.

Typing in basic listings from magazines was pretty much the only way to get software.
