Doom crash after 2.5 years of real-world runtime confirmed on real hardware

Post by minki » 2025-09-16 IMG_20250916_224553.jpg (81.99 KiB) Viewed 26683 times Two and a half years ago, I started my now longest real-world software experiment. I had read an article about how DOOMs engine works and noticed how a variable for tracking the demo kept being incremented even after the next demo started. This variable was compared with a second one storing its previous value. The issue here being, each incrementation would cause the variable to slowly get closer to an overflow,

Undefined Behavior in C and C++ (2024)

Undefined behavior in C and C++ Photo by Jonathan Kemper on Unsplash What is undefined behavior? February 3, 2024Working in C or C++ requires some awareness of: what it is, what its effects are, and how to avoid tripping over it. For simplicity, I will just talk about C, but everything in this article also applies to C++ except where otherwise noted.It is, generally speaking, more difficult to program in C than in the likes of Python. In some ways, that's because C is a lower-level language,

Software developers use AI more than ever, but trust it less

The big picture: Software developers are increasingly weaving AI tools into their work, but such rapid adoption hasn't come without confusion or conflict. They and their managers are still trying to work out when these tools help, when they hurt, and how to integrate them without creating more problems than they solve. In its annual poll of 49,000 professional developers, Stack Overflow found that 80 percent use AI tools in their work in 2025, a share that has surged in recent years. Despite th

Android 16 will make it easier to find your recent apps with a new taskbar overflow feature

TL;DR An upcoming Android 16 update will add a taskbar overflow button to improve app switching on tablets when many apps have been recently opened. Tapping the overflow button will open a horizontally scrolling carousel that displays previews of your recent apps. This feature is set to launch later this year with either Android 16 QPR1 or QPR2. Back in 2021, Google added a taskbar to Android to improve app switching on tablets. Since then, the company has made several improvements, such as a
