Should else be big_yikes? That seems situational to me.
It’s actually a comment on the performance loss incurred from a likely failed branch prediction.
😂
I really really dig the fuckaround/findout. It paints the try/catch with a more dreadful undertone and reeks of mystery.
The whole thing was pretty damn good all the way through. The only thing that had me wondering was
TeaUntil it got to
SpillTeaWell played.
NGL, that helped me actually understand the original function. It’s been over a decade since I’ve touched anything related to C.
Indeed. I was unfair of me to pick only one favourite, as there are more candidates :)
the suspense!
just what you want from code !
Exactly!
As well as the
yeetkeyword, I’m really friggin’ diggin’ this. [modernisation required]Oh yes, this one too of course!
#define yeet throw #define let const auto #define mut & #define skibidi exit(1)The future is now!
Yeah, I love that one.
“Try” is too hopeful. “fuck_around” makes it clear that you know what you’re doing is dangerous but you’re going to do it anyhow. I know that in some languages wrapping a lot of code in exception blocks is the norm, but I don’t like that. I think it should be something you only use rarely, and when you do it’s because you know you’re doing something that’s not safe in some way.
“Catch” has never satisfied me. I mean, I know what it does, but it doesn’t seem to relate to “try”. Really, if “try” doesn’t succeed, the corresponding block should be “fail”. But, then you’d have the confusion of a block named “fail”, which isn’t ideal. But “find_out” pairs perfectly with “fuck_around” and makes it clear that if you got there it’s because something went wrong.
I also like “yeet”. Partly it’s fun for comedic value. But, it’s also good because “throw” feels like a casual game of catch in the park. “Yeet” feels more like it’s out of control, if you hit a “throw” your code isn’t carefully handing off its state, it’s hitting the eject button and hoping for the best. You hope there’s an exception handler higher up the stack that will do the right thing, but it also might just bubble all the way up to the top and spit out a nasty exception for the user.
Aliasing no_cap and cap to true and false…
I might have to steal that…
Too many capital letters in the gen z version.
That’s what we Do.
Good thing I’m sticking with GDScript.
@sjmarf And now someone is preparing a PR on C#’s GitHub issues… well done, well done.
It’s so painfully good.
Just needs a rap about the fun in functions performed by 60-year-old seniors
That’s way better than my emoji based programming language.
I’m not so sure. Send a link.

Sure! It doesn’t do anything yet, I just have a text file with how I’m intending to architect it.
It quite literally started
twofour (edit: I can’t keep track of time) days ago.I’ll configure a repo, stick this in a file, and push it. I’ll reply with another comment so you (and others) can look it up.
I’ve come up with some crazy stuff. Instead of something like “class” to indicate a class, it’s
🏫 Followed by the emoji name of the class like 🖼️📁. So it will need to be able to handle operators in the name it’s amazingly gross! Properties and methods will also be emoji names, like to get the 🖼️📁 “File Name” it would be 📁💳.
I was kind of being sarcastic. I haven’t written a compiler since I rode my dinosaur to college. Still it’s a funny idea. Could probably do it in C using a bunch of pound defines.
I was thinking Rust, but that works too.
Because then I could call the Language Spoons.
It would as uncomfortable to use as it is to watch Rusty Spoons

Now I wanna see this in jive
Everyones first language should be brainfuck CMV.
This was by far the best way to explain current slang.
I got all of it No TeaBig “you damn kids and your phones” vibes from this
Yes, and? Get off my lawn!
Every generation is peddled two insane concepts:
When they are young, they are told that they have a weird bizarre vernacular which sounds stupid to everyone else.
Then when they are old, they are told young people have a weird bizarre vernacular which sounds stupid to everyone else.
Then you die.
