Why do jannies bother to delete maidposts? Everyone using this board is a cute maid. That is who wants to even discuss these topics. Anybody both willing and able to talk about language/compiler design anonymously online is wearing a maid outfit. It isn't even secret anymore.

How the fuck do I compute the minimum value of a signed integer type at compile time in C without invoking UB?

I'm learning how to use SIMD instructions so I am working on detecting the enabledness of those instructions so that I can use them for some data stuff i'm doing with 3d models, AVX could speed up parts of my program by a 8x, with more gains to be had by adding parallelization later if I need to

if you know that it's a 128-bit signed integer then it's max should be 2^127 right, assuming we aren't counting the sign bit? can't you just precalculate and define the value?

>>106439103
The morning sun has vanquished the horrible night.

I am building a CLI app that will have a hybrid of a flag mode and an interactive mode. However I am currently second-guessing as I don't know which flags should also be prompted during the interactive mode and which should be skipped. Does any anon have any advice ?

The flags that I am second-guessing are for verbose (showcasing detailed information), progress (for progress bar), count, and output to name a few.

>>106441670
Your REPL should be able to do everything your CLI can. It is also good practice to design the REPL first.

>>106441670
group your flags into two separate groups, one for control (output, verbosity, etc.) and another for batch processing (ie. whatever you will map to an option during interactive mode)
whatever input you an use in interactive mode, add as a batch flag; whatever additional mode you need to set in the app, add as a control flag

I completed mutations and squashed more bugs. Now I am adding the other resolution types. Then I have to add compiler flags and built-in functions and write the manual. Possibly other tasks I am forgetting, but everything except resolution types and maybe writing the manual should be short. I am also considering reworking eMAIDS to work with MAIDS and Kurumi MaidCard III. That way it is an entire IDE for MAIDS and they can seriously program in it more easily with having to fiddle with vim and command-line arguments or similar. Attached is a screenshot of eMAIDS. It would need significant rework, so the effort might not be worth it. eMAIDS is written entirely in core Java 23, using swing.

It's time to let go. Send it to a museum to be put in a glass case.

any of you guys ever use AI to just make stuff for you? ive been learning C++ and Python for a while now and while the local model (Qwen 2.5) and Gemini both produce subpar c++ code, but it excel at Python code. Of course, the quality drops and errors increase with projects that exceeds about 750 loc but when it works, feels like taking a hit of crack.

>>106444701
LLMs are nice for webtech and python, but sometimes I find myself doing thing manually instead of taking the time to provide context and correct the errors in the responses.
The breaking point seems to be across-files for me, so I just use it when I already have a design in mind and want it to shit out a baseline impl for me to modify to my needs.

>>106444081
If someone on apple tried to run the game with AVX + crossover, it would give an error unless they set ROSETTA_ADVERTISE_AVX.
Also they need to have crossover updated in 2025, since people pay / pirate crossover once, they don't get updates.
That's pretty much the only reason to not assume AVX is supported (manually check for support).
Also I think for a simple SIMD implementation for a 3d math library, you don't need AVX, I think AVX is mostly for doubles in a 4x4 matrix? Am I wrong? That's what I see with jolt physics.
Of course, you could get into the weeds of SIMD and maybe you could batch operations with a bigger register, but I would wonder if compute is even the bottleneck (physics and audio seem to be the main places where SIMD is used).

>>106444741
>The breaking point seems to be across-files for me, so I just use it when I already have a design in mind and want it to shit out a baseline impl for me to modify to my needs

yup, ive noticed that if keep everything in a monolithic file, it seems to do alright.

this gives me a ton of hope as a newbie though. there's no way these tools will be replacing anyone

>>106444824
LLMs, as they currently are, only fuel burning startups with a 1-man/grifter team. They can't replace junior devs (cheaper than seniors, future proofing, will climb the ladder), especially in bigger companies.
LLMs are not the reason the job market is bad. It's because of greedy corpos wanting to switch to cheaper H1b. These people can stay for up to 6 years.

>>106446478
>Can I get away with never writing constructors/destructors in C++ and just use RAII wrappers for everything
How do you create RAII wrappers without constructors/destructors? Do you mean unique_ptr for everything?

template
concept MyConcept = requires(T t) {
{ t.resource } -> std::same_as>;
};

void foo(MyConcept auto bar)
{
bar.resource. // No vector intellisense/autocomplete here

auto v = bar.resource;
v. // Or here
}

Resolution types are done. Built ins are done. Compiler flags are probably next. Then the manual. Then some very heavy testing. Then release.

so this is my first ever program in C and im also very new to programming. The program is just a to do list thing. So far all it does is it takes input from the user, assigns it an ID based on it's position and writes it to a file. my question is this: the code is 117 lines. Is this normal for C? to me it seems a bit excessive taking into account the simpplicity of the program. What do you think?

>>106447428
Your functions do too much stuff. Almost everything prints stuff event though the name suggests it should just be writing or reading something from a file. You're effectively smearing a big main function across a bunch of functions to give the impression of organization. Try to factor your programs into a logical layer and a presentation layer.

>>106447463
If you do everything from scratch, you can get quite a lot of code even for very "simple" things. That's why we have standard libraries. (If you were doing it without a standard OS, you'd have a lot more lines of code to do to write data into a file.)

>i think cloud stuff has a future.
I agree, but not for reason you stated. Simply because humans will be necessary "in the loop" for incident response. Whenever reliability and responsibility has a capital R and tolerance is higher with real time judgment being needed, AI will move way slower in replacing engineers. We'll still need to have some form of compliance and going all cowboy on deployment is going to be a recipe for disaster, so there's that. In short, any critical infrastructure, regulated fields (medicine, finance, legal etc), maintenance (telecoms, grids), people will remain essential.

>>106439090
Your compiler should have a cpuid builtin.
>AVX could speed up parts of my program by a 8x
Unlikely. When you actually benchmark, the gains will probably be more like 15-20% over SSE2 for real work but compilers can be really bad about optimizing for anything higher than SSE2 since the costs/optimizations aren't tested as much. march=AVX2 may be slower than your baseline flags.
SSE family feature support after SSE2 is not consistent and can't be relied on because a lot of AMD CPUs did not implement extensions. There are only a handful of instructions worth using as a lot of them are very slow, best to focus on what speeds up the implementation like the BMI extensions, popcnt, clmul, and so on.

Focus on SSE2 as a baseline since that's what most languages target, x86-64-v1
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64#Microarchitecture_levels

Every x64 cpu has SSE/SSE2. Then work on an AVX2 implementation if necessary, and AVX512 if you have CPUs that can run it but it's probably not worth investing in until we all have AVX10 chips. You can look into Google's Highway for ideas about dynamic dispatch.

>>106444081
This is plain wrong.
AVX is practically useless without AVX2 and support for AVX2 is not widespread even with modern CPUs. I'm not aware of any dynamic dispatch that targets just AVX and wouldn't trust the assembly generated for a compiler that does that since it's so limited in what it can do.

>>106454379
ohh, code review, thank you!

In this case, boards is a mandatory key, so something should break if it's not in the form data. Why? Cus with asagi schema, each board is a table.

>>106454467
>AVX512 if you have CPUs that can run it but it's probably not worth investing in until we all have AVX10 chips
this is wrong afaik

AVX10 is the same as an AVX512VL instruction stream

>>106454513
What's wrong about what was said? You don't have a CPU with AVX10, the first of them will be Nova Lake with 10.2. Widespread adoption of those CPUs will be another 10+ years.

>>106454479
That's great, but in that case you are raising 2 different exceptions. ValueError if there is a value thats not a string/list_string, and KeyError is the value is not there. This will be confusing in the long term. Use .get which will return None. It will still raise the exception, but it will be a consistent exception in all cases.

>>106454547
What's wrong about what you said is that we have to wait for AVX10 to care about AVX512 programming but that is just not true.
All current AVX512 chips are AVX10 because they all implement AVX512VL.
AVX10 is orthogonal with AVX512, and it's the same EVEX-encoded instructions. Nothing really changes when an "AVX10" chip comes out except maybe a chip that only supports a subset of the AVX512 features we're all already using. Rather than assuming all chips are 512-bit, a 256-bit chip may come out that produces an exception if you try to do 512-bit arithmetic on it. That's the only _real_ difference.

You can write AVX512 code now and it will work on current AVX512 chips and AVX10 chip.
AVX10 does not even introduce any new instructions, it just introduces better CPUID flag detection and consolidates the culture of what's already out there.

Currently, 18% of steam users have AVX512.

>>106454685

>>106454685
>What's wrong about what you said is that we have to wait for AVX10 to care about AVX512 programming but that is just not true.
I was suggesting focusing on widespread adoption before more niche targets. You're pedantically misinterpreting what I said as a general suggestion in a hobbyist thread.

A beginner should start with SSE2 to learn to think in SIMD, and then work their way up to AVX2 and eventually AVX512. There's still such low adoption and high performance variability (throttling on older CPUs) of AVX512 CPUs that unless they have a server/HPC type application then there's little value in learning it.

In the Zen5 benchmarks I saw, AVX2 is faster than AVX512 but uses more power. So AVX512 is more suited to power efficiency in data centers. There's little value in regular people writing AVX512 code today and the skills you learn now will easily be transferred to writing code for future extensions.

>>106455026
>AVX2 is faster than AVX512
NTA but that isn't really the case, but you have to be very compute bound to benefit from the extra vector width (the new instructions and masking are cool though)

>>106454467
>compilers can be really bad about optimizing for anything higher than SSE2 since the costs/optimizations aren't tested as much
For what reason? bad instruction selection? bad register allocation? bad auto-vectorization?

>>106455725

>>106455658
A multitude of reasons but generally due to little demand and there's plenty of other work for compiler devs to do.
Compilers target a generic CPU and virtually schedule instructions that you opt into accordingly. Micro-architecture differences account for some of it and the theoretical calculations clash with the reality of hardware and memory. Number of available ports can change over the years and in some cases the microcode for an instruction may be a very inefficiently implemented sequence (I forget which instructions these were on AMD Zen but it was recent and they weren't even particularly exotic). The story on ARM is even worse with how different the micro arches can perform.
AVX introduced complications with power and frequency scaling on Intel that I think have mostly been resolved, but there's also been issues with speculative execution that have resulted in mitigations.
Very few people inspect and report performance bugs. They tend to use march/mtune, and those cost tables can be still sub-optimal.

There hasn't been a coherent feature set to target beyond the baseline requirements of x64 processors (maybe x86-64-v2). Intel still produced Pentiums and Celerons without AVX as late as 10th gen (maybe still does?). Very little general programming benefits from extensions beyond SSE2, and the people who need to use those instructions are already compiling with them or doing dynamic dispatching based on what's detected (video, image, audio, 3D, computing, etc.). If you could guarantee every CPU sold after Haswell had AVX2, it'd be a different story. Instead, Intel splintered everything.

>>106456199
Thank you for the effort post anon.

If performance matters, the user shouldn't have a problem to download the build for his specific architecture, and the software team shouldn't have a problem to make several builds.
Concerning compilers, I don't see a scalable alternative to them having a little microbenchmark tool to run on each architecture to measure the real latency and throughput of each instruction and produce a profile file. Then, have the compilers implements the code generation algorithms from the literature than can get the most out of the microarchitecture profiles.

>Very little general programming benefits from extensions beyond SSE2, and the people who need to use those instructions are already compiling with them or doing dynamic dispatching based on what's detected (video, image, audio, 3D, computing, etc.).
TL;DR programs that need performance (most programs like web browsers, media viewers and editor, web servers for live streaming and parsing AKA "very little") already account for the available featureset and programs that don't focus on performance don't need the performance.

>what are you working on /g/?
Phase change and criticality

novice programmer question, I have a big file with a bunch of functions that I want to break into separate files for readability's sake, i.e. a.c/a.h: aa(), ab(), ac(), b.c/b.h: ba(), bb(), bc()...
The problem is that some of these functions depend on one another. It's fine when everything is in one .c and one .h, but once I separate these out I end up with circular dependencies. I can put the offending function declarations in their own header file and include it in all header files, which works, but is counter to the organization I was trying to achieve. I can also put a bunch of externs at the top of each .c file, which seems to work. What's the elegant solution?

>>106457728
cat the .c files into a single one when building the program

>>106457728
a function in a .c file can call any function of any other .c file, as long as the called function is declared, ie it's declaration is in one of the header files #included in the .c file where the caller function resides

I'm asking if there's an elegant or common practice

>>106457886
That's how it's done in C and that alone is not terribly inelegant. What's inelegant is the consequences of the inexistance of namespaces. Either the header of the library include every/most internal types and functions and pollutes the namespace of the user, either you have a splitted private/internal and public/external headers to try to only export interface functions and types, but in this case you can't have the exported type, likely structs, can't have a field of a private type. Either the private type must be included in the external/public header causing namespace pollution, or you rely on casting.
Or you give up on namespace pollution and function and type names with very long prefixes.

use case?

>>106458026
I stopped giving a shit about the rationale of Perl's semantics and decided it was garbage. You should do the same.

>>106457886
Either you use the public header file and spread the implementation across as many source files as you need or you declare an _internal header file which you never include in other header files.

Anyone here that transitioned out of SWE into an cybersecurity or devOps/architecture role or even netoworking role?

I've been coasting for the past 5 years in a dead-end IAM Operations position, the only programming I've been able to do on the job is some python scripting and spreadsheet management with Pandas. I like programming but I think I've romanticized working as a developer, and perhaps would find it better to just do it as a hobby and to support any other role that I may have. I am now trying to transition to a different role, I'm thinking about going deeper into Cybersec, aiming to something like a Security Engineer or a DevSecOps role, but I still have this nagging feeling that I had when I was a kid of working as a developer.

Anyone have some perspective on SWE? Do you like it? Do you think it's fulfilling and worth perusing? Are most SWE jobs trying to decipher spaghetti code and/or building the same enterprise applications?

Like, I like programming, I'm reading a book right now on implementing a tree-walking-interpreter and then a VM, I think it's fucking cool to build stuff like that and understand how shit really works under the hood, but I'm assuming most generic SWE jobs don't have you working on cool shit unless you have years of experience and are able to specialize in a niche filed like computer vision or whatever the fuck.

Working on making an ASCII globe CLI program compatible with Conky for my rice. I'll be sure to share the source code once I am finished.

I've already added a command line argument that makes it send a single frame to stdout and then exit, meaning other programs can pass arguments to generate and consume specific animation frames.

You'd think feeding terminal text output to another program would be easy, but they are doing a lot of weird shit to dynamically space/resize the globe based on terminal size. And the weird shit garbles the output when you view it as plain text.

>>106463799
Although, even after making the globe compatible with Conky, there are still more refinements that can be made.

The globe doesn't actually use geographical coordinates, but instead plain 0.0 to 1.0 geometrical coordinates to map the globe. Could add a lookup table or conversion algo that lets you pass in actual geographical coordinates to the globe.

And then with that you could do things like mark special geographic locations with special colors.

>>106463799
Are you using curses for the globe?

>>106464599
Honestly I haven't yet delved into the libraries they are using to format the final terminal output. It might be curses, but I'll have to check later tonight. I'll check the use flags for dependencies and step through the print_canvas function that creates the final output.

Thank you for the tip. I am not super familiar with terminal output optimization.

How the FUCK is the grammar of templates this much of a mess too? I thought I hit the bottom of the iceberg with ref-qualifier dropping. And yet here we are, more dogshit design literally baked into the language.

It's not enough that templates are impossible to debug and next to impossible to read. They had to stuff a bunch of weird idiosyncrasies into their grammar and behavior just to make this piece of shit take up as much space in your brain as possible. There's no way it's not malignant.

Gonna try and find a way to implement a way to do intentional data-moshing effects next

>>106469750
If you mean doing something like busy looping with an operation that you know the cycle count of and multiplying by your GPU's base frequency I would think that's probably as good an estimate as you could get.

>>106469849
i don't think there's any vulkan based way to get the base frequency of a gpu
that's actually the whole issue, a lot of timing information is only available to non-portable APIs like CUDA or HIP
i don't think it's available to opencl, if it was i guess that would be fine

and it's not to get the cycle count, since that wouldn't really work given 1 SPIR-V instruction isn't guaranteed to equal 1 assembly instruction and while i could get the actual assembly for AMD GPUs from vulkan with an AMD specific extension and could probably assume the most basic of operations was 1 cycle there's basically no way regardless to know anything about NVIDIA's GPU instruction set
or something like an ARM gpu

what i'm trying to do is use the host clock to get the device clock so i can use the GPU's device clock to drive behavior in a portable manner

i need the frequency so i can convert between the two
gonna try to do it with both a host and device busy loop over either host mapped device memory or device mapped host memory as that means i don't have to deal with kernel launch latency
maybe both since that seems like that might help with figuring out PCIe latency somehow
in theory i should have a few ways to counter all the fucking caches that get in the way which is a concern

i think simple linear regression might? be able to provide a result that would at least vaguely point in the right direction given the relationship is linear

Wayland code is very verbose. Win32 has a lot of 'wtf' design decisions, like how everything is a "window" even though we think of a window as a top level object, or the weird enums they use and their ambiguous behavior. But Win32 is more succinct than X or Wayland

>>106473827
you have to write lots of boilerplate for wayland because its design mandates you maintaining a large state machine of the whole client state yourself since states are only delivered with events (for which every single one you need to register a listener for) and can't be queried
there are also lots of restrictions on wayland that don't exist on any other window systems
in my library wayland uses 2x of the code to achieve the same functionality as win32/x11

I contributed a fairly non trivial code to a fairly large project which is very tricky to properly test. I said that I didn't test any of this and people are like LGTM but I doubt anyone actually tested/read deep into it/cross referenced the datasheets either.

Build tools are for fags. I am anal about external dependencies, especially build tools. Structure your project as a unity build then you can just use a 10 line bash script for yourself and it's completely scale-able no matter project size. The only usecase I've found it doesn't cover is when multiple unit tests need different #define flags that determine underlining implementation, otherwise it keeps things dead simple and it compiles faster too. I strive to keep my projects so that the source of all dependencies are included and anyone can obtain and build the entire project with a mind numbingly straightforward
git clone github.com/anon/project
cc project.c -o project


For unit tests I use https://github.com/tsoding/nob.h but outside of that I generally try to avoid using bootstrapping when possible and stick to the unity build.

No hunting down packages, no build tools, no niggerlicious docker containers or nix-shells, just a C compiler and build instructions that could not be any simpler. I believe this is how all FOSS should be.

>tsoding
So that's where they're coming from

looking at the actual code, It probably be better if he didn't reuse witness across different entities. If the entire point of them is that they do different things when they witness something then those should be separate.

>>106479158
half of these if statements would be gone if he didn't try to do the "proper" thing of reusing code

>>106478928
The problem for me is not that he is branching on the state of an entity, it's that the state of the entity is stored in a string

>>106439090
Have you heard of OpenMP?

>>106479172
i dont think thats how you reuse code

>>106479298
That's exactly the kind of useless reuse people show in examples for memelangs

>>106479172
should have used a real reusable lang like haskell

>>106479476
funny that the only haskell program I have installed is pandoc and the binary is larger than an LLM that does the same job better

>>106478928
>idk why everyone hates on this code it's actually very readable
the words are, but the logic is not
you would have to dig through miles of code (basically play out the whole game in your head) to analyze what state those elements could be at that point in code

>>106479957
No, the logic does it for you and if this.teacher is false, none of it is called

True. I'll solve the hunger problem, I'll make lots of spaghetti.

I was tricked by a jew into writing a class and I do not like it at all.

I'm just going to stick to procedural programming.

>and if this.teacher is false, none of it is called
that has no meaning by itself
might as well replace "Teacher" with "x"

you can't even tell from that screenshot if Teacher is a property of one of many objects (if so, then why would many objects have a GameOverCause and Subtitle), or some global state (in which case, what are the preconditions for it to be true or false?)

One object the NPC. You can't tell because YOU think code exists in a vacuum. It doesn't It operates on real hardware on real data in the real world.

Both that version of the language and the one I am writing the manual for now are powered by textual reduction. In that version, the language was parsed and then special UUIDs made from Elder Futhark were inserted as markers for how to reduce the text so the VM could run the code. If, for some reason, you wanted to make a document in Elder Futhark, you could also configure it to be other languages, like Phonecian or Egyptian. The current version no longer does this, because I replaced that whole system with parser combinators.

Crash Bandicoot was written in LISP. LISP can make anything, and you can make your own LISP tailored to the problem you are trying to solve. This actually lead to something called "LISP curse", where no major LISP implementations really caught on, because frequently making your own specialized LISP is easier and more effective than learning someone else's LISP and trying to apply it to your problem.

>>106478928
It seems like it should be a switch? I am in agreement with you that the code is not egregiously bad.

>>106480093
I fixed the bug, so, yes? I can keep making the manual now!

Great!

That's a good project.

enums with a switch would be better. I agree with that 100%
>>106480294
But it's not yandere devs fault that people shilled some shitty language that is so unintuitive, unusable and clusterfucked just to deal with the most minor autistic niggles people have with real programming languages.

which maidware is best suited for embedding?

Part of me feels im never going to be a good programmer and I should just give up

>>106481085
I'll never be a good programmer but I program because it's fun. You'll never attain "good programmer" status anyways because it's undefinable

What would you like to embed and what would you like to embed it into?

Wasted 15mins of my life learning about minor optimizations in inline assembly, entire thing got btfo when I found out that Rust compiler doesn't give a fuck and picks optimal register size for an operation by default.
e.g. mov rax, 1 is actually mov eax, 1 in the final binary and me writing mov eax, 1 explicitly does nothing. Assemblyniggers of course lied to me by claiming that compilers are le bad or something...

>>106467465
Threads::Threads should never be missing, it's the way you link to the system multithreading libraries, it's not a real package
try and do a find_package(Threads REQUIRED) before you pull in whatever package is triggering that
i always put it very early on in the project root for safety's sake
never thought it actually mattered but apparently it does to at least one library

>>106481256
You are peaking SO hard bro. Keep it up.

>>106480272
it's not about code "being in a vacuum", it's about code having clear context

>It's of one struct that many npcs who are teachers own
why does a NPC have a GameOverCause and Subtitle?
that's something that should belong to a game session context, not an npc context

>YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND YOUR DATA if you want to write good code
good code is understandable without having to mental map the data structures and abstract logic it's actually meant to be implementing
that code the opposite of good code and it's one step away from outright obfuscation

>You can't tell because YOU think code exists in a vacuum
I can't tell because the code itself doesn't tell me

>>106481256
llvm does a low level pass towards the end to "correct" assembly including silently fixing code that would otherwise trigger hardware errata
hand optimized assembly is for doing things like branchless SIMD and avoiding platform ABI and compiler generated gunk
not "microoptimizing" a single access to the low half of a register
literally never seen anyone fret over that
i don't actually know if it's the case but i was under the notion that it didn't really matter because sub-register addressing with one of those backwards compat aliases still loads the full register

>>106481383
Ok retard, I'm sure you absolutely NEVER saw anybody try to reduce amount of bytes wasted on shim code that you wish that you didn't have to write at all.

>>106481393
genuinely haven't
don't do too much where that kind of thing is necessary, i don't generally find myself needing to modify the behavior of a binary that i don't control
vaguely aware of tight space constraints making setting up things like trampolines and shims more difficult but i didn't think it came down to that level most of the time outside of shit like trying to get code execution in a really constrained environment

From the decomp, he has yet to discover enums or maybe that's just how enums decompile. Anyhow it's just as readable as before. Sure it can be better, but not following any of your edicts.
There is basically one problem with the way he arcitects and it can be boiled down to https://research.swtch.com/pcdata
Or that he creates and stores data very inefficiently using hundreds/thousands of lines of code

if (Yandere != null)
{
Yandere.CameraEffects.UpdateDOF(1.5f);
}
Week = DateGlobals.Week;
if (GameGlobals.MostRecentSlot == 0)
{
TargetAlpha[2] = 0.5f;
}
if ()
{
Arrested = true;
}
if (Dead)
{
}
else if (ChallengeFailed)
{
}
else if ()
{

}
else if ()

else if ()

else if ()

else if ()

else
{


Here for example. Who cares if ChallengeFailed is true when you are dead is true. The structure of the code explicitly tells you that we don't. WHICH IS TRUE! the state doesn't matter, which would be a signal to remove it if you were programming in a real language.

>>106481672
The main problem of this kind of code is more pernicious so I'm not surprised you guys didn't get it.
It's scope, you can't reach back and add stuff into scope, so you have to
If you want code to run when Dead && ChallengeFailed, you have to add another block above all your existing code.
Which may needlessly limit what your program can do. IF it needs to do that. Since this doesn't the design is fine. Not good, less readable that it could be obviously, less efficient. But it just works. And that's what makes /g/ the maddest
( if you have some state that you want to know exactly what it does then you can literally just run the code, this is a non issue and shouldn't be your main architectural design point, we don't live with punchcards anymore)

>>106481672

your reply addresses none of the points of the post you're replying to

I've just finished writing and testing a clang plugin
this was a lot easier than I expected
time to publish a release

>>106481775
The points don't make sense. If your code is readable without knowledge of the data then it's literally just a purely function program.
Are purely functional programs good in reality? Of course not.
Making sure that the programmer has an idea of the data is a necessary evil, both for performance and social sake.

>>106439159
use square brackets

This way of architecting is a 1-1 map to how the player thinks about playing the game. I don't think it's the best, sub par even, but it's makes reasoning about gameplay easier. Which is more important than the code.

>>106481950

>>106482003
you're inventing problems that don't exist

>>106482092
You are ignoring data that you need to know. both to write the code, and fix the code when something breaks.
These kind of function chains aren't exactly readable either, it's the classic "guess what this line of APL does"

>>106482102
>You are ignoring data that you need to know
the programmer (and the code itself) should not need to know data, only what to do with it
