Its amazing how many bugs you find when you write a unit test >.<

When I set out to write huge complex symbolic execution engines that translate big chunkcs native machine code to binary logic I use python for that. Not C. And I know that it'll take like 30 hours to get a solution but it takes me 1/100th of the time to write the engine.

When I write a kernel module or a system service, I use C.

@tojo For reals tho, I'm super in to native code - I write C/C++/Asm for a living, but if you ask me to write a non-systems/OS program, I'm gonna write it in python every time.

There's very little need for it, its very hard to do simple things, and you will 99% of the time hang yourself with the rope.

that scanf for example, even if you did it right would be a guaranteed buffer overflow.

@tojo mmmn.... if linked lists are torture you might want to noooooooot use C/C++

Unless you're writing systems code, you probavbly shouldn't anyhow

@tojo don't use scanf or its family of functions - read one character at a time into a buffer which doubles when it gets to max size using realloc, then parse by hand.

@tojo For C++ tho, start with the basic data structures and algorithms so you get acclimated to doing things other langs do for you.

Linked list, quick sort, etc

@tojo I think of you try to do a rotation cypher in C you will find you have no problems - start there!

Big ups to past me for putting the extra cpu cycle addition for mem reads and page boundaries right into the oper resolution function so its automatic

Added like 6 instructions to my 6052... I forgot how easy I'd made it with the structure and helpers I've done haha

@typhlosion me toooooo - like beyond soldering and like... highschool physics circuit solving...

@KitRedgrave@glitch.social until I get to the ppu and sound chip it will be haha. I can’t do graphics or sound programming AT ALL.

But the CPU will be able to rewind and also you can do symbolic execution on chunks of code.... so that’s cool.

Found my 6502 reference implementation code in python. Gonna try to work on like two instructions a day and integrate with binary ninja as a rom parser...

I want to run Mitt Romney’s funeral. Also my phone tried to make me say “Mittens Romney” which is what his grave stone will of course say.

@shel wait wait. If someone dies, and I run their funeral, I can name them and gender them and dress them however I want?

@bea once I ziplined at carnival in Quebec City. I have never been so cold.
