@luatic @lizzy With C++23 (if the std module exists; I think std module only made it into C++26 though), it is would be just `import std; int main() { std::print("Hello world!\n"); }`

I look fat in this picture but I do feel cute though. Oh the cat made an appearance in the mirror to say hi to the internet too.

@lizzy I prefer no x86 ISAs. But when it comes to x86 ISA, AT&T Syntax is easier to understand than Microsoft^wIntel format.

@hipsterelectron That is a good question, there are some global reviews which could ok the patch though. In this case the big change is just:
`/#define INCLUDE_MEMORY/d`.
which to some extend is an obvious enough change that nobody will mind.
Note GCC has an obvious rule (https://gcc.gnu.org/gitwrite.html) which has been used before but folks try not to abuse it.

I have used the obvious rule to fix a build/bootstrap failure, to commit some new testcases, some doc fixes . But I try not to abuse it.

@navi I just got this spam too. WTF?

I am working on a patch which touches over 500 files in GCC. Well I could get away with only touching 5 or so but I want to remove the `#define` in the files which is no longer needed to be defined.

@RL_Dane @cobweb You missed the `(j/k)` part. And cpan is 10x better than rust and pip. rust package manager is just to show there are many duplicated packages that might have security holes in it (not due to memory issues though).

@cobweb @RL_Dane it is about cpan (j/k)

PeanutButter, why do I love you so much. I could just swim in you for days on end. Eat you up. The extra chunky version of you is the best. Running on a Toasted buns. So good.

Well improving slightly aarch64 builtins. Always love doing that ...

Repeat after me, don't reply to folks on reddit even in r/gcc and then decide to look at their profile to just find racist/transpobic things posted.
I replied to someone on r/gcc to help them out. And then when they didn't understand simple C, I went to look at their posts. They posted a link to someone going off on a "purge of anti-woke folks" from the Godot game engine. It was a youtube channel that was pro-open source too.

@QasimRashid The big suprise for me in this list is the 2 from Georgia And Tim Kaine.

There are articles but it is in the more focused media.

@hipsterelectron @foolishowl Intel first said 10nm was delay until 2016 even:
https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-33549916

Looking back now reading these articles shows Intel had troubles long long before. And Intel just a fucked up company.

@hipsterelectron @foolishowl There were signs back in 2018 about Intel being broken too:

@hipsterelectron @foolishowl Even before Covid:

@hipsterelectron @foolishowl And Intel mentioned in 2020 they were having issues with their fab too:

@hipsterelectron @foolishowl https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/7178 Goes to show the CHIPS act didn't pass during an election year. Not even as a win for Trump. Took 2 more years to get it passed. Under Biden.
Also look at group pushed it the most, Republicans. And TSMC started to the idea of a fab in the US during Trump's term too https://www.reuters.com/article/technology/taiwans-tsmc-to-build-arizona-chip-plant-as-us-china-tech-rivalry-escalates-idUSKBN22Q38T/

The whole thing is a big mess.

@inthehands I can only think some intern was told to write the brief and that intern used ChatGPT. And nobody proof read it or checked it before filing it.

Or it was done on purpose to show the dangers of AI and deek fakes. And how close it could become a reality without some digging into it at all. Yes Lawyers and judges will catch it but will the common person will though?
