@luna you know, sometimes I'm really in awe at how adept people can become at cursed C.
@bean @luna the "exponential" is particularly full of evil, I "enjoyed" the minute or so I needed to fully appreciate it. Possibly not portable to all architectures, though?
@aoanla @bean @luna definitely won't work on EBCDIC machines ...
@srtcd424 @bean @luna that was my first thought, yes! (I think the first number would have to be 242 maybe for it to work on EBCDIC?)
@aoanla @srtcd424 @bean I put it to the both of you that using an EBCDIC machine in 2024 is far worse than anything I've written.
@luna @srtcd424 @bean I think horrifying the horror counts as a win, right?
@luna @aoanla @srtcd424 @bean right, everyone should be using UTF-EBCDIC instead so they can represent all of Unicode.
