Likely one of those “free software” nerds…
Android is just boneless Linux, thus it’s being the most successful open source operating system. I guess the number of Android devices outnumber all the Macs.
Case sensitivity is so much of a problem, that in college, people were always told to keep all their filenames all lowercase, to avoid issues with them.

This XML parser of mine uses safe by default.
Pointers are not guaranteed to be safe. DIP1000 was supposed to solve the issue of a pointer referencing to a now expired variable (see example below), but it’s being replaced by something else instead.
int* p;
{
int q = 42;
p = &q;
}
writeln(*p); //ERROR: This will cause memory leakage, due to q no longer existing
D has many memory safety features. For local variables, one should use pointers, otherwise ref
does references that are guaranteed to be valid to their lifetime, and thus have said limitations.
That’s why I often recommend D instead.
Has a much more C-style syntax, except much more refined from the years of hindsight. The catch? No corporate backing, didn’t jump on the “immutable by default” trend when functional programming evangelists said for
loops are a bad practice and instead we should just write recursive functions as a workaround, memory safety is opt-in (although “safe by default” can be done by starting your files with @safe:
), some of the lead devs are “naive centrists” who want to “give everyone a chance at coding even if they’re bad people (nazis)”, implementing new changes to the lang has slowed down significantly up until the departure of Adam D Ruppe and the drama surrounding it, etc.
Go in all on it, make PirateSoftware pay for his sin of making an indie live service.
The security nightmare is reduced by a lot, thanks to Linux being a lot more safe system. Of course the occasional very old security issues get found, but those are only old if some swifty hacker found out and didn’t disclose it publicly, or had to wait for years to be solved.
Where can I get the privacy nightmare AI application for Linux? I want it to take screenshots of my computer (in case I want to search it), never really use it, but store the data on my PC unencrypted, thus able to be hacked.
The sad thing is, there are other languages better at replacing C/C++ due to closer resemblance, except they’re rarely used due to lack of trendy technology that is being hyped in Rust. D lost a lot of ground due to its maintainers didn’t make it an “immutable by default” language at the time when functional programming paradigm was the next big thing in programming (which D can still do, as long as you’re not too fussy about using const
everywhere).
Not even the leopards themselves are safe from getting their faces eaten!
There’s like a lot of layers to it.
I’m a nerd and dirt poor, what am I doing wrong?
We were “groomed” by plush toys…
And then his children will run for office, and only because he’s too old now.
I became a leftist, because I got enough of the liberal “they go low, we go high” mantra. You never turn the other cheeck to a person, who will proceed to punch it again. In fact, if they once failed to do better in such cases, they’re just want to abuse your fair game.
