Making a StringBuffer in C, and questioning my sanity

news.ycombinator.com Brian Douglas 2025-07-27 12:48:34

I've been writing a lot of C. Whilst doing so I have been questioning my sanity. Am I an awful programmer? You know what, I think I might be. Kudos to all those devs that created monumental feats with C. Because it is not an easy tool to use. That said, I do enjoy writing C, just as long as I don't have a deadline or any business critical software to deliver. But when I say enjoy, I mean enjoyment in the sense of using a sycthe to cut a lawn, whilst my lawnmower watches on. It's lovely using th

The 10-hour marathon left him "completely exhausted."

‘Crystal Lake’ Casts a Familiar Horror Face as Little Jason Voorhees

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-07-30 22:00:12

Horror fans are excitedly awaiting Peacock’s Friday the 13th prequel series Crystal Lake—and now we know who’ll be playing the younger version of Jason Voorhees. Long before he decided a hockey mask and machete were an ideal killing-spree combo, and even before he drowned at summer camp, he was just a little kid with an eccentric mother. Presumably. We don’t know too many details about the show yet, but we know Linda Cardellini is playing Pamela Voorhees—and now we know Callum Vinson is Jason.

Trump’s Cabinet Is Cashing in on Crypto

Congress’s big “Crypto Week” might have faded into the background a bit due to cryptic messages Donald Trump left in a birthday note to Jeffrey Epstein, but Republicans in the House and Senate did, in fact, manage to pass a couple of laws that will establish loose, industry-friendly regulations for cryptocurrency. Which means it is a perfect time to be reminded that the Trump administration is packed with people who stand to benefit from cryptocurrency being mainstreamed. Trump himself, of cour

The holy trilogy of James Gunn’s DC Universe is slowly coming together. Part one, of course, is Superman, which is now in theaters. A Batman movie is being written (in addition to Matt Reeves’ new Batman movie), and, of late, there’s been lots of talk about Wonder Woman too. As co-president of DC Studios, Gunn recently confirmed a Wonder Woman script is being written, and subsequent rumors suggested the film was being fast-tracked.

The '90s were the heyday of techno-noir movies, flicks that combine the cynical atmosphere and jaded perspectives of film noir with the dystopian settings and altered reality of science fiction. Though movies like The Matrix may have exploded the popularity of the genre, there were also films that didn't get the attention they deserved on release. One of my overlooked favorites is Dark City, a mind-bending techno-noir thriller that explores the idea of identity against the backdrop of a city sw

When the hamburger-shaped spaceship with the word “Millennium” on the back lowered down above me, I figured I was in for something special.
