@mirabilos That breakage was dealt with during GCC 14 release cycle. That is GCC defaulted to erroring out for the K&R prototype stuff in GCC 14. Gentoo, Redhat and Suse folks all contributed to solving that issue last year.

GCC 15's C front-end will defaults to C23; less than 2 months after the publication of C23 even. Maybe the fastest change ever.

Back to work on this scope conflict. Now I 100% understand how it should work. I am almost done too.
Posted a version to https://forge.sourceware.org/gcc/gcc-TEST/pulls/21/files .
I need to finish up the commit message and change log too.

@whitequark oooh, thanks for the info, I updated the GCC bug report with that.

@andyprice @etchedpixels `foo(&s) + bar(&s)` is a little more obvious an issue rather than say `foo(bar1(), bar2())`. And yes that has shown up in real code (GCC in fact).
See https://gcc.gnu.org/PR12411 and
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-09/msg01545.html

@whitequark Funny I commented on a GCC bug report 2 weeks ago about how to support this pragma:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39437

I didn't know clang did it in a .note section but since it does, GCC's emitting into the same note section should be done.
I wonder what section is done for pecoff object files now ...

Winter spirt anyone?

@PaniczGodek @lfa oh yes the implicit conversion to int. It is even worse if you do: '\0x80' as in C++ it would the char type while in C it is still int.
Oh and is char signed or unsigned depends on the target.

"This is what draining the swamp looks like" By adding a sex trafficker as the head of the DOJ. Adding a hindu nationalist as the director of national intelligence.

I guess by making your own swamp is what you wanted.

@mgorny As someone who works on GCC, I can't either understand the release process of LLVM or methodology. The biggest thing is LLVM a library or a complete compiler. It fails at being a library due to the API changes and the developers seemly push the idea that LLVM is NOT a complete compiler even though clang is there.

@ariadne "- why no AM radio? " Especially since you can get AM radio without power.

@thomasjwebb @liamvhogan myspace

@zens @elronxenu @liamvhogan Stop disrespecting usenet like that. Myspace is markdown since you can make it worse not realizing you need to quote things every once in a while.

@VisualStuart No he only wants death penalty for rival drug dealers. Get it right.

@APBBlue They already did in 2011:

@elithebearded @zwol Yes this annoys me too. What is even worse is I went to a hotel in spain and I said I only wanted one key and they responded you want to have 2 so you can just one in the slot for the power. This just goes to show how the people working at the front desk just as annoyed at this as the rest of us.

Qualcomm's Windows on Arm push would be great – if only it ran all your software

Until compatibility issues are properly addressed, it'll never stand up to x86 Analysis  Qualcomm has set its sights on Arm-based Windows laptops, which, in theory, offer notable advantages. The company's Arm-powered Snapdragon processors promise exceptional battery life that puts x86 machines to shame, fanless de…

Actually puts the whole idea of Meta Threads and openness front in center. Instead of Meta trying to connect directly with X, they created something which connects to the whole Mastodon system.
Will Meta try to connect to BlueSky who knows. But bluesky connecting to threads would not need anything special. So BlueSky is AOL here ...
