they keep asking to vote again and again despite NO MEANING NO

if this shit passes and gets enforced the EU is done for, fr, it's that severe

and there is one person to blame for it this time: Roberta Metsola

call your MEPs, send them e-mails, last time it actually did work

While you are trying to automate and replace everything in 2026, Emacs ships with built in therapist since 2002

@valigo I started with Tsoding's view library about a year ago and added some utilities for parsing and it's been pretty great (I only wish there was something similar in stdlibc)

La nueva empresa de Bertin Osborne "Española Telefonia", dice que te realiza un test de velocidad de tu conexión y en su código fuente se ve que el test no existe y que elige un numero aleatorio en 50 y 250 Mb, para venderte su conexión.
Menuda estafa, española, eso si.

The moment they start talking about VPNs you know it's NOT about child safety.

1.3 MILLION PEOPLE ASKED THE EU TO STOP COMPANIES FROM DELETING GAMES THEY PAID FOR.

THE ANSWER WAS NO.

The "Stop Killing Games" initiative wanted one thing: when publishers pull the plug, don't let them remotely destroy copies people already bought.

The European Commission's official response:
- It will not require publishers to keep games playable - says forcing them would go too far
- Reason given: publishers' copyright and IP rights come first. Your purchase comes second.
- The solution: a voluntary code of conduct, developed together with the same industry that kills games
- Plus an awareness campaign reminding you of the consumer rights you supposedly already have

1.3 million signatures. Years of work. Multiple hearings.

And the part that says everything: according to the campaign, Ubisoft got a seat at a closed-door meeting with the Commission before the decision. The 1.3 million people who signed did not.

Publishers can still brick your purchase whenever they feel like it.

If buying still isn't owning, then at least now it's official.

@zuhaitz_dev Having seen some extremely cursed codebases, this could for the majority be just library + docs generator for library + some commandline tools they use internally (idk why java, C# then and I don't know what MLIR and Roff are)

[VicThor Dev @VicThorDev6]

@valigo You can also split it into many arena allocators, which I have found to be useful for some old file formats which have more than one list of data of which you don't have a size (alternatively you could also just parse it in 2 passes)

@valigo I really want to ditch vscode but for some projects I can't use focus editor because it's a bit of a pain to not have a tree view and running arbitrary commands, yet

Either way I do think basic word completion is fine
Tbf tho I want to ditch vscode bcos it is annoying in general

@managarmrr_ Why rem? He had the worst win rate for a while out of all heroes

Did that change?

[VicThor Dev @VicThorDev6]

@valigo I might try this but auto-generated from multiple files like how you mentioned sqlite does it 🤔

[VicThor Dev @VicThorDev6]

@rfleury How do handle it then? Assume it's going to be synchronous so you put it in another thread? Why have that flag if it isn't sure 🥲

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of the International Obfuscated C Code Contest!

Excited to watch winners streaming at 11AM PDT today (06/06).

It always brings out an interesting blend of compiler nerds, programming language theorists, and researchers.

Give it a watch, it’s the longest-running programming competition in the world!

@taigakanak @valigo Also, if you don't want to use SDL for whatever reason you'd need to use other libraries for windowing apart from libX11 I'm guessing, what should you do for this then? I've personally only used libX11 in this case but I've also not made any professional software for Linux.
