Just to demo what actually happens with pointer.c, here's another version of main.c that will work: extern char str[]; int main(void) { long long int *s = (long long int *)str; printf("&s:\t%p\n", s); long long int b = (long long int)*s; printf("&b:\t%#llx\n", b); ...

You appear to be advocating a new functional programming language. Your language will not work. Here is why it will not work. You appear to believe that that garbage collection is free. Unfortunately, your language lacks macros and has implicit type conversion. The following philosophical objections apply: * Inte...

I think on some level Google doesn't care if you use the service, they just want you to sign up and fill out some info so they can get a real name database with crawlable interests. From that they will have all they need to make your search results and adds more relevant/targeted. Thus making google+ a business success...

Lawnchair is nice. Part of the reason I wrote Sticky is that I hate the unnecessary callbacks required to use Lawnchair (what were they smoking?).

Dart doesn't even really have types. You can write anything where the type should go and it doesn't affect how the program runs in any way. If they changed that, and added go's implicit interfaces, I'd say it is a pretty nice language.

To emulate the original NES with 100% accuracy, you only need a computer that contains the NES. Maybe it's different when you're trying to emulate it on an x86 processor, but this is a problem that can easily be solved by just using NES hardware.
