A program that does one thing, that's one screen with 3 buttons.277 MB binary, 7 processes, close to 600 MB of total RAM used.

@hirnbrot I'd been writing C for a while before I even knew about this `static` https://godbolt.org/z/OcSDNH@grainloom @jelle_dc

I didn't think Norwegian would be very interesting to learn, given that it's so similar to Swedish, but I've taken a liking to it. The lad and I might end up living there, and I want to be able to speak the language if we do.

@hirnbrot It is base ten and easy, unlike Danish. :)

@hirnbrot Nope. Seems exactly like Swedish/English.

@hirnbrot Yeah. Learning it is almost all vocabulary, for me. And getting used to the rhythm and melody.

@thor Interesting. This material does not mention those forms. :) @hirnbrot

@thor I guess it's like Swedish. There's tons of variation in regional dialects, but it's not something that's taught. @hirnbrot

@thor Local gotos are fine, IMO. Let's you do single return, and have cleanup/whatever in one place. Weird about the warnings, though; I wonder what Clang says.

@thor The variants I've tried all seem to get flagged by Clang, but I don't know if I'm doing the same thing. https://godbolt.org/z/8dtNKB

@thor Interesting. I mostly use Clang, but I wouldn't have expected that from GCC. Clang even tells me under what conditions/which code path the variables would be uninitialised.

We've already killed off 60% of animal populations since 1970. Meat production has wiped out so many species and their habitats. There's already as many smartphones as there are people.

They're only obsolete because corporations want them to be. Capitalism destroys everything.

@lynnesbian People were also upset to find that Gmail has a list of all of their purchases. Google's terms let them do basically anything, but also explicitly mentions collecting data about purchases. I know most people don't read the terms (and I don't blame them,) but when some tech bro who supposedly cares about privacy writes a blog post about how mad he is, it's a bit amusing.
