@j3s What I need is a script that detects I'm writing more than 100 characters into a web form and warns me to copy-paste it into Notepad++ and edit it there instead. But I always forget. @netspooky It's so weird that the sticker covering the USB port that claims there's no USB port *also* has the little "pull here to remove" corner tag on it. Huge "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" energy. There. I have re-derived, written and debugged a subpixel-correct line drawer using only integer maths. Are ya happy now brain? Can we sleep? Update - I have found my subtle bug! A perfectly reasonable assumption that is only 99.99% true. Literally a corner case. Sigh. |
@TomF @dbort @ceejbot honestly all the serious c++ work I've ever done or even seen has had disabled exceptions, disabled rtti, and generally not used the standard library. Hell exceptions aren't even properly cross-platform, they flat out don't work on a lot of hardware.
We almost do just need to make a "C+" compiler with everything generally disabled culled out, and some revised docs, would probably help people who get overwhelmed by the feature support nobody uses.
