Lexy: A parser combinator library for C++17

Why should I use lexy over XYZ? lexy is closest to other PEG parsers. However, they usually do more implicit backtracking, which can hurt performance and you need to be very careful with rules that have side-effects. This is not the case for lexy, where backtracking is controlled using branch conditions. lexy also gives you a lot of control over error reporting, supports error recovery, special support for operator precedence parsing, and other advanced features. Boost.Spirit The main differenc

Dish gives up on becoming the fourth major wireless carrier

is a news writer who covers the streaming wars, consumer tech, crypto, social media, and much more. Previously, she was a writer and editor at MUO. Dish’s parent company, EchoStar, is selling a broad swath of its 5G spectrum licenses to AT&T for $23 billion. Under the deal, the Dish-owned Boost Mobile will primarily operate using AT&T’s growing network — a move that marks “the end of the road for the fourth carrier,” says Roger Entner, founder and lead analyst at Recon Analytics. As part of T-

AT&T acquires $23 billion worth of spectrum licenses from EchoStar

AT&T is set to acquire $23 billion worth of spectrum licenses from EchoStar, the parent company of Dish Network, Sling TV and Boost Mobile. The deal will see AT&T gain control of approximately 50MHz of low-band and mid-band spectrum, which are frequencies commonly used in 5G and LTE networks. EchoStar had been under pressure from the FCC to build out the spectrum in its portfolio or consider divesting it . The FCC's regulations take a 'use it or lose it ' approach to ensure that the spectrum li

AT&T is spending $23 billion on new spectrum, but what will it do with it?

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR AT&T will pay roughly $23B to acquire 30 MHz of 3.45 GHz (mid-band) and 20 MHz of 600 MHz (low-band) spectrum from EchoStar/Dish, and the companies say they’ll deepen Boost’s wholesale access agreement with AT&T’s network. Details on the enhanced MVNO deal are vague, but it likely means Boost will lean more on AT&T coverage; priority/QoS improvements are possible but unconfirmed. Don’t expect instant customer-visible changes, but the added spectrum sh

Compiler Bug Causes Compiler Bug: How a 12-Year-Old G++ Bug Took Down Solidity

Compilers aren't supposed to crash — especially not when compiling perfectly valid code like this: // SPDX-License-Identifier: UNLICENSED pragma solidity ^0.8.25; contract A { function a () public pure returns ( uint256 ) { return 1 ** 2 ; } } Yet running Solidity's compiler (solc) on this file on a standard Ubuntu 22.04 system (G++ 11.4, Boost 1.74) causes an immediate segmentation fault. At first, this seemed absurd. The code just returns 1 to the power of 2 — no memory tricks, unsafe casti

As a cell phone expert, these are the 5 carriers I don’t recommend

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority I’ve spent a significant portion of the past few years reporting on and testing various wireless service providers operating in the US market. As you might imagine, this has allowed me to form clear recommendations for just about every need — family plans, customer service, pricing, and more. Considering postpaid and prepaid options together, there are dozens of choices available, yet only a handful of providers truly stand out enough to recur regularly in m

The ‘Booster Gold’ Show Finally Shows Some Progress

It’s easy to forget, but part of DC Studios’ initial slate reveal included a TV show for one Booster Gold. There’s been nothing about it since then, but now we know who’ll be spearheading the show-to-be. Per Deadline, Our Flag Means Death creator David Jenkins has signed on to write the series’ pilot. If it gets the green light, he’ll also run the show, which centers on Michael “Booster” Carter, a fame-seeking superhero from the 25th century who comes to the present day to build up his superher

I replaced my iPad with this $100 Android tablet for a month, and it had no problem keeping up

You Only Have Until July 7 to Grab Some Rare First Chapter Lorcana Cards

The folks over at Ravensburger have been doing a lot of good work for fans of its wildly successful trading card game (TCG), Lorcana. The Reign of Jafar set gave us some amazing new cards, and the new Fabled set is looking to bring back some fan favorites as the game moves into a new phase, one that almost all TCGs go through, by rotating sets out of standard play. Because the first four sets will no longer be legal in competition play, the Fabled set will reprint some cards from those first fou

NASA’s Next-Gen Rocket Booster Explodes in Test of a Design That May Never Fly

While the fate of NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket hangs in the balance, the agency is pushing ahead with tests of new components needed to launch the vehicle toward the Moon. The latest test included the firing of a solid booster meant to replace NASA’s shuttle-era rocket parts. Although the new booster started off strong, its nozzle appeared to get blown off around two minutes after it began firing its motor. On Thursday in Utah, Northrop Grumman conducted the first full-scale static f
