const_cast and reinterpret_cast are there because casts to (void*) are legal so you may as well let people describe exactly what retarded thing they're doing

void * is not a foolproof "raw pointer" value in C++ either, due to the possibility of implicit conversion operators. the official raw pointer type is const volatile char& (actually a reference type, so to cast a pointer you have to dereference it first e: I'm an idiot, of course if you have a pointer you can just cast it directly because they are built-in types and you can't give them a user-defined conversion operator), as seen for example in std::addressof

and you thought that "when is a const not a const" quip was a joke a "volatile" variable can have a different value every time it's read, so every time you fetch a "volatile" variable, the compiler has to insert a memory fetch (not a memory fence though: it may - Microsoft's compiler does - but it's not required and you shouldn't expect it). basically it's like a variable with a getter and a setter function (literally sometimes, if they're used to describe memory mapped hardware registers for example), although compilers will often try to pretend they don't have to be that strict... and get it wrong. I forget who was that professor working on program correctness checking, but he showed that clang had bugs in its treatment of volatiles by modifying it to explicitly use functions to read/write volatiles, which resulted in stricter and more correct behavior than the default implementation a "const volatile" variable is a variable with a getter but no setter. the getter still has to be called every time, hence volatile I believe that with memory mapped registers you totally can have write-only variables but C and C++ have no way to represent that

that's so the compiler doesn't whine if the thing you're taking the address of is volatile or const

yeah in that context it's just the most permissive set of pointer/reference qualifications available

ya in embedded land write-only addresses are very common or, better yet, they'll pair a read-only register with a write-only register and just stick them at the same address, so the read-contents and write-contents are different and at best vaguely related

a bug worthy of the underhanded C contest: an audit chastised us (actually a third party library) for using rand, so I replaced it with (int)arc4random_uniform(UINT_MAX) this makes rand return negative numbers about half the time, meaning things like rand() % 100 (lovely way to get a uniform distribution, I know, but not my code) can now return values out of range (from -99 to 99 instead of from 0 to 99) which breaks all sorts of things... randomly the fix is one byte: change UINT_MAX to INT_MAX

So the architect likes "just hash it" to the point he wants to rip out all the stupid search loops. We walked through the code together (tribal knowledge, woo!! gently caress writing poo poo down!) and he kept apologizing for how bad the code was. He's juggling 3 projects and didn't really have fresh in his mind how bad what we took on to fix actually is. When I ask about biz rules with $client they'll admit they don't know, or that some definitions are nonstandard. I thought consulting was glamorous not "oh my gooooood why didn't you call us sooner." On the flip side I feel better about my code.
