I do a lot of programming in C which usually contains a bunch of functions that I create. Just curious... am I the only one that always ends my main() function by printing "END OF LINE."? Just wondering...

Today I've finished #teaching to my current customer how to maintain the #software I've developed for them once I've left. Two sessions of 3h and 3h40, teaching to 4 people, all in #japanese of course. A bit tired tonight, but both the users and the IT team are super happy with what I've done (solving a #combinatorial #optimisation problem to save them several hours of work every week and help #organic #farmers ) and I was happy to teach about what I love the most: #programming .
Bonus point for preaching about #testdrivendevelopment and the beauty of #cprogramming .

Also still looking for my next contract ! #fedihire #jobsearch

I was listening to Linux After Dark (or was it Friday Night Deploy?) and it was asserted that 8th gen intel is no longer the gold standard for daily driver laptops in the used market.

If modern programming languages are so great, how come none of them can't get even close to this line of C:

int components = sscanf(version, "%u.%u", &major, &minor);

According advertisements they should be able to do this in 0.1 lines of code or less.

Last time we set up FreeDOS and installed DJGPP and RHIDE. Now let's go through how to use them and write some simple programs.
