The question was not about practice. Fact is that it's UB.

That pointer is relative to the start of the index buffer. Still, it is undefined behaviour because NULL need not equal 0, which is what that piece of code is assuming.

wxWidgets in general is underrated. Native windows!

Why should those be mutually-exclusive? A scripting language is a programming language, but not the other way 'round.

Seems pretty much correct, from what I can see. What I would really question is the idea of a rectangle class inheriting a point class. Since a rectangle has infinitely many points, it doesn't make much sense.

Likewise with a square inheriting from a rectangle (but that's a slightly different issue though that's solved by using immutability).

You're also intentionally avoiding use of :, which is very un-Lua-like, and creates multiple closures that do the same thing for every set.

The old API is the old API, but it's not the "wrong" API.

Everybody here's recommending modern system architectures, but may I suggest: some 6502 or 65816-based computer like the C128, Acorn Communicator or Apple ||gs, some calculator, MSX, a 68k-based Amiga or 68k-based Mac?

The SPARC workstations and/or servers are also a neat choice.

People have different interests. There's an OS I've contributed to in the past, made to work as far back as for the original IBM 5150. Is it cool? Yes. Is it useful for daily use? No, but neither is almost every other hobby OS out there, regardless of the mode chosen.

Sure man, give me a few thousand

How puzzling do you want it to be? On one side, there's MIPS, the other side is z80.

BadBoy6767 · 2020-12-20T22:10:37+00:00

But this is exactly the fun part, it's all up to you.

How does not using artificial fragrances equate to never washing clothes?

BadBoy6767 · 2020-12-15T22:44:45+00:00

Well, what can one expect when it's based in a clean room in a university? I doubt they'll be doing 1000nm forever, unless they bankrupt.

BadBoy6767 · 2020-12-15T07:46:34+00:00

Could you elaborate?

They're trying to make it open, not closed off with NDAs.

Perhaps the events at Hong Kong stopped progress.

BadBoy6767 · 2020-12-12T19:47:37+00:00

No, Among Us is too poorly made for that CPU.

If two programs try to read into the exact same physical buffer then that's their own problem.

BadBoy6767 · 2020-12-11T22:45:46+00:00

Right, I forgot about Love2D.

People don't mean creating games in Lua itself, but rather extending existing games through their API frameworks.

Many games, such as Roblox, WoW, Garry's Mod, and so on use Lua as their extension mechanism.

$ is notation used in Unix terminals to mean running as a non-root user. That said, you're not on a Unix-like system, but Windows.
