Except there are no free lunches, literally.
Parents still have to pay for part of the lunch.
Title gore: if we find a way, then what?
That was fast.
The company didn't abandon, Microsoft bought them out indirectly and killed the competition. Nothing to see here.
ANTLR is for writing parsers. You don't need a new custom parser, just use an existing XML parser.
That's an odd definition of non-public if the information is available to everyone. More like annoyingly public.
There are IDE extensions that show the diff of the entire PR locally without having to squash anything. So yes, it's weird to reinvent a square wheel.
I am currently writing a C compiler, with my own backend (and hopefully, frontend) in OCaml.
But why write your own C frontend? It's much more of a pain than people imagine. I maintain a C frontend implemented in OCaml (the project itself goes back 25 years) and it's still not on par with GCC or Clang.
For any other language, sure, but C has so many "wonderful" features, starting with the lexer hack. Your grammar conveniently overlooks this issue but it's something you'll have to deal with to actually implement it. So it simply won't be as nice as theory suggests.
Yes, but with things like syscalls it's easier to do this than require every high-level thing building on the syscall to be modified and recompiled. Very few people need to use such low-level APIs.
Isn't that just drafts for that comment's reply?
Because I just saved a comment draft, went looking at something else and wanted to go back. The problem was that I couldn't find the right post/comment where I saved the draft.
I thought Boost saved that because going to reply to the same comment would automatically bring up the draft.
Am I blind or is there no way to view comment drafts? I recall this being possible in Boost for Reddit.
If I search settings for "draft" two things come up:
Assuming that it's just that person, that it's their actual name and that they're in the US...
