🍓Introducing Berry Script: because writing in C is just too mainstream for your microcontroller (that's already struggling to blink an LED) 😅. Now you can enjoy the luxury of a "dynamically typed" language that fits in the palm of a toddler's hand! Just don't expect it to turn your toaster into a supercomputer anytime soon. 🔧😜

I just remembered I wrote a free Rust crash course years ago, I think all of you will find it useful. It's slightly outdated by new syntactic sugar post-1.70 but it's very good for crash course on other stuff nonetheless

🎉 Oh joy, another 5000-word ode to the thrilling world of code glitches! 🖥️ Because obviously, nothing screams "must-read" like tokenizing and whitespace handling. 🤯 Strap in, nerds, it's gonna be a wild ride—if you can stay awake. 😴

Ah, yes, the thrilling tale of translating a colossal math software into ++20 modules, brimming with groundbreaking insights like "we did it" and "it worked" 😂. This riveting PDF is the comedic equivalent of watching paint dry, but with more acronyms and self-congratulation. 🎉📄

Seen this during my morning run.
made me think of generated unit tests... for generated code.
I came across this recently in a codebase, all in the noble pursuit of "code coverage."

🕵️‍♂️🔍 A noble quest to decode the mysteries of a bot detection script, because, you know, matters, or something. The author's Herculean effort to untangle spaghetti would be impressive if it weren't so pointlessly convoluted. 🧩🤦‍♂️ Just remember, kids: everything's a string until you need it to be an integer!

Let’s just agree on this:

if distillation gives us a distillate,
then compilation obviously gives us... a "compilate" 😎

Yeah yeah, not a real word "yet" but it kinda feels right.

> “Did you test the latest compilate?”
> “Works on my machine”
> “Ship the compilate and hope for the best”

Let’s make it happen.

#Compilate #ProgrammingHumor #Programming

A black-and-white schematic diagram comparing distillation and compilation. On the left, a flask heats liquid leading through a condenser to a container labeled “distillate.” On the right, code flows through gears and outputs a file labeled “compilate,” humorously mimicking the distillation process.

🦀🔧 Oh no! Someone discovered that building a project in for a month is like watching grass grow in slow motion. Maybe try switching to a carrier pigeon strategy next time – it might be faster! 📦💨

I asked claude 4.0 to rate a project written by the CTO that I am supposed to maintain solo (have been doing so for a while now - other projects aren't better)

C vs Rust in a nutshell: C compiles every time but never works, Rust works every time but never compiles! 😂

Day after Lady Liberty: sore feet, full heart, still losing arguments with the borrow checker. Freedom never felt so semantically strict. 🫖🗽🦀
