NASA writes mission-critical flight software in C.
And the rules are absolutely INSANE.

> No recursion. Ever.
> Every loop must have a provable upper bound.
> No dynamic memory allocation after initialization.
> Max ~60 lines per function.
> Minimum 2 assertions per function.
> Every return value must be checked.
> Zero compiler warnings allowed.
> Daily static analysis. Zero warnings there too.
> No function pointers.
> Restricted pointer dereferencing.

This is how they write code at NASA / JPL for mission-critical systems.

On way to #sqlbits, looks like great weather for it. Well as long as the sessions are outside 😎

o3 and o4-mini are super good at coding, so we are releasing a new product, Codex CLI, to make them easier to use.

this is a coding agent that runs on your computer. it is fully open source and available today; we expect it to rapidly improve.
