<&[R]>
He pretty much argues against his statement that it's a protocol
00:17
<&McMartin>
The C ABI basically links smoothly with assembly language ABIs with no extra nonsense required
00:17
<&McMartin>
That's not unique to C, but it's the only language the kinds of people who write these essays will have used or heard of that does.
00:51
< Degi>
It seems a bit like they didn't understand how C is structured but also I didn't read the whole article
00:52
< Degi>
Like the thing about long long having different sizes, but yeah its a long long and not an intx_t

<&McMartin>
There *is* a conceptual shatterpoint in C, and this article is clearly from the modern side of it
01:06
<&McMartin>
There was a point 5-10 years ago where C compilers started being serious about "if you write undefined behavior, the compiler can do *whatever the fuck it wants*", and actually being insistent on things like "signed integer overflow is undefinde behavior"
01:07
<&McMartin>
Prior to that shatterpoint, there was a very strong and mostly valid expectation that a C compiler would translate code constructs into broadly equivalent assembly language constructs.

is it possible to know the position of the text cursor on a webpage using js

<@TheWatcher>
within a text field, or the whole page?
23:11
<@celticminstrel>
By text cursor do you mean the insertion point?
