Revolutionary technologies of the '80 make me appreciate modern programming languages and especially tooling much more.
In general, ‘classes’ declarations were done with macro. I don’t remember the exact code — something akin to
BEGIN_CLASS(A, Parent); CLASS_MEMBER(a...) END_CLASS();The project had started before C++ existed, and the switch would be too costly. It’s not just OOP part, also reflection mechanism with bindings to the homemade scripting language, and multi-platform UI library. It was a gem of its time.
I was working on a C code base with classes, inheritance, and polymorphism, all done by hands and macros.
Something like
typedef struct s_some_class { void (*method)(this *s_some_class); } t_some_class;Overall, learning C was the best enabler in my whole career. For instance I was learning Python by tinkering with CPython VM, so when I see these ‘WAT’ quircks I know exactly what’s up.

21·2 months agoWhile working on Borderlands 3, the team was severely underpaid. People started quitting, so Randy promised them an “unprecedented company profit-sharing bonus model.” That never got paid—he blamed “higher-than-anticipated development costs and sales not meeting projections.” Borderlands 3 went GOTY, a few dozens millions copies sold. Randy secured a $12M executive bonus for himself. When staff expressed dissatisfaction, Pitchford told them they were free to quit. This was in the middle of the pandemic, and the job market was absolute crap.
I’m free to elect whoever, Russia is free to fuck off from MY country. Before you start repeating Russian propaganda about opressing Russian speaking (me btw, I am Russian-speaking Ukrainian), go watch Putin whose cock you suck, he openly says he’s waging the war of conquest.
From Ukrainian who grew up facing Russian imperialism and oppression of my culture. From Ukrainian who stood up on both revolutions against Russian puppet dictators — fuck you, piece of ignorant shit. You are complicit in Russian genocide against us. You are my enemy.
This is my new busyness e-mail signature.
I volunteer in my free time so that more Russian occupiers will be eliminated. I’m very proud of myself.
Russia had no significant gains over the last years with half a million casualties (KIA, MIA, lost limbs, war prisoners), the logistics is crumbling — they use donkeys, the economy and demographic are in the toilet but Russia is extremely good at spreading propaganda. So much so that the US admin is parroting it and putting pressure on Ukraine.

Conveniently you forgot to mention a short list of terrorist groups financed by Iran.
