my worst introduction to a language was a bored TA explaining "Verilog's kinda like C without recursion" which is... a little lacking

OddObserver posted:Is it Verilog or VHDL (or both?) that's full of language features that only work for simulation and can't actually be synthesized into hardware? ive seen a Verilog tutorial "hello world" that's just that, using $display("hello world") to make the simulator print those characters

meanolmrcloud posted:On the other hand, they plum forgot to add any ability to spectate matches in their uh, hopefully budding eSports client or any support for multiplayer whatsoever, their most popular format by far. Then there's all these little UI things that work really well, because if it's in the core game they have to. I recently had to use the UI to cancel someone's attempt to cancel my cancel spell, it showed the entire stack as it was, with my cards closer to me, theirs closer to them, and asked which one I was trying to cancel. I had a spell that would exile something from a graveyard, someone's deck was picking stuff from the graveyard to go back to the hand/library, when I'd trigger my ability it would highlight the card they were trying to pluck and made that default choice extremely easy to input. There's weird corners like that where they definitely had the right folks solving it.

This one's fantastic. It'll work well enough if it's the only thing you're running, but on a contentious system or under load you'd see failures cropping up. Perfect recipe to pass DOA testing then slaughter bigger testing or prod. At which point, naturally, you'd try to reduce it... where it starts passing again.

Beef posted:I went into a video call expecting a tabs vs spaces discussion when I raised the issue of the baffling seemingly random C code style on a project I'm working on. Sometimes there would be a space between the function name and arglist, sometimes where wouldn't. There are occasional superfluous space after an open brace, which my emacs setups paints in angry red, that I would have to sweep up using whitespace-cleanup before commits. I used to maintain perl written by EE's. EE's generally have funny ideas about software, will get things working once then move on to other problems. This was perl that smashed ASCII together into SQL queries, so just the best possible environment for clever solutions to persist for years. A couple of the genius inventions that I had to deal with included code:The other incredible move was redefining $\, the newline character, from '\n' to '' so it could slurp a whole file and do one s/// operation instead of "looping" over "lines" like some uncourageous jerk.

QuarkJets posted:Given the choice between easy to read and comprehend vs clever I prefer the former, but if it's well-tested then clever is fine Back at my first job they'd literally have sections of code where the two were side by side. "Here's the legible version if you're trying to interact with this section, here's the gross bit-by-bit breakdown to actually make it fast enough."
