Probably not a good title to seek upvotes. If it does get upvotes, more programmers get share in your pain 😅
Insist they index from 1. Like God and Fortran intended it. ;)
And Lua!
And Julia!
Fuck C and it’s lazy shit pointer arithmetic array indexing shortcut. I.e. you just add the index × size(t) to the array pointer.
Bounds checking? We’ve heard of it.
It’s fast though.
so what if it’s 100x slower /nosarc
Like riding a motorcycle in a tee shirt and shorts.
I’ve ridden a motorbike in a T-shirt and kilt before. That’s … fun …
And sun glasses, don’t forget the aviators.
While Mr “I can’t code without a garbage collector” is still putting on his backplate of “oh no pointers are bad” and a duck typed full face helmet, to ride his interpreted moped, the big boys, Mr C-ool and Mr ASSembly, are already downing grain alcohol at the finish line.
But then again I really don’t like to step out of my embedded RTOS bubble. It really depends on what you want to accomplish and how complicated your system is.

That sounds like a domain where memory safety is secondary to size and speed… though compile time memory safety guarantees could help.
Good thing we have so many options!
This is the hardest I’ve seen a someone try to not mention Rust. I’m actually impressed.
Have you seen rust? I couldn’t code like that, what a silly language https://lemmy.world/post/26105353
And MATLAB!
MATLAB is basically a UI wrapper around Fortran’s BLAS and LAPACK – change my mind. ;)
I have this great idea for an app, we can go 70/30 on it! 70 for me because the idea is the hardest part after all. So basically it’s Twitter plus Facebook plus Tinder with a built in MMO. You can get that done in a couple weeks, should be pretty easy right?
Tinder MMO huh? You may be onto something…
But, if you want my opinion, I want 15%
Write spaghetti code and don’t listen to advice telling you to improve
Correctly highlight when a programmer is being assumptive as a brick, even when assumptions are one of the biggest sins in programming. Done, you’ve triggered a lot of programmers.
I thought the joke here was that your unbalanced parentheses would make me angry (they did))
… is that not the point of the title?
I clicked into the post expecting more text and then realized that was the joke.
Congrats OP, I am both upset and entertained!
Relevant XKCD : https://xkcd.com/859/
#define if while #define true false
You’d like the IOCCC.
Great times. And new rules every year!
Or a classic:
#define true (rand() % 2) #define false (rand() % 2)That’s evil
You guys are too slow, we need to hire more of you and let the sales teams use AI to add features the client asks without waiting for you.
AI can code now, in 2 mins I can create an app, so it shouldn’t take you long to make changes to this 10year old product.
Good pay for me, no programming socks for thee!
You take that back! My programming socks are the source of my power!

warms up your cold side
I’m the cold side of your pillow, so you’re causing harm to yourself
Despite causing myself harm, I am causing you to cease to exist, yes? :3c
Its called evolution.
What? Its evolving!
Coldsideofyourpillow turned into Warmsideofyourpillow!
I mean, the headline of this post already makes me irrationally angry. 😂
Y u no close brackets!?
I think that’s the joke, Clyde!
Make them do project management.
You… grinds teeth may… have a point.
I work as an embedded developer and when a new board is produced and half tested, every one expects fully functional code off the bat, right away.
Motherfucker, you didn’t even qualify your hardware and you expect my code, that hasn’t hit the new board, to be 100% functional, based on your mind map? We will find hardware issues that will inevitably be blamed on the code and spend hours “debugging” the code to eventually find out the hardware is shit.
Micromanagement to speed up product release date. Daily meeting and status reports, work breakout categories such as ‘code design’, ‘code development’, ‘code documentation’, etc,etc (flash back gif of Apache helicopters flying over a jungle
