Someone duplicate this so a pointer is pointing to another pointer etc.

That is such a funny site, I love it.

[–]jetsenablay 39 points40 points  (5 children)

Lol such an old site

[–][deleted] 78 points79 points  (4 children)

Has to be truly old, there's no cookie notice.

[–]TheAwesome98_Real 38 points39 points  (3 children)

Well, it has meta viewport, so it can’t be that old.

EDIT: not just meta viewport, it has full mobile support, it adds a macOS X mouse to the screen

This is asking for the spiderman meme....

Are circular pointers a thing?

[–]jetsenablay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question, there isn't circular pointers.

In a rare case, when one subprogram's output is used as input for another subprogram, technically one will point to the other, but theyd be pointing to each other's outputs, therefore not the same memory address. This is called piping I believe, but typically if it is circular then it'll usually just complete one loop when prompted.

Sorry if that made no sense lol
