  • More progress on the sprite editor. Preview looks OK, now (it was stretched to fill the space before, because I'm still figuring out how to make things specific sizes and shapes and locations in QML). Save also works correctly.

    I also made a little guy with a big butt and big ears, I guess.

  • Ora legale definitiva?

    Può darsi che passerà, ma mi pare che ci sia molta disinformazione

  • Writing Type-Safe Generics in C

    The fun part about a programming language like C is that although the language doesn’t directly support many features including object-oriented programming and generics, there’s nothing that’s keeping you from implementing said features in C. This extends to something like type-safe generics in C, as [Raph] demonstrates in a blog post.

    After running through the various ways that generics are also being implemented using methods including basic preprocessor macros and void pointers, the demonstrated method is introduced. While not necessarily a new one, the advantage with this method is that is type-safe. Much like C++ templates, these generics are evaluated at compile time, with the preprocessor handling both the type checking and filling in of the right template snippets.

    While somewhat verbose, it can be condensed into a single header file, doesn’t rely on the void type or pointers and can be deduplicated by the linker, preventing bloat. If generics is what you are looking for in your C project, this might be a conceivable solution.

  • @brohrer and the vibes are kinda bad and getting worse. I hate selling because then I have to deal with it on my taxes, but I don't see how there's anywhere for it to go but down.

    (Contd.)Tabitha: at 16 I poisoned my third governess in a year (what can I say? I was bored) so pater sent me to Countess Vulch's finishing school to straighten me out. I was good: I didn't poison any of the other girls, or even steal from them (much). Then at 18 I ran away and joined a down-on-their-luck crime family rather than let the inquisition crucify me with the rest of my family. But I had the last laugh: by 24 I was running the business—bespoke bioweapons for the gentry.#WordWeavers

    #WordWeavers Sunset Grill is set on a futuristic Earth; I haven’t really messed with garbage disposal, aside from their habit of dumping inconvenient bodies in the lake. A lot of inconvenient stuff goes in the lake. The rest gets sort of shifted about, piled up until the neighbors complain, dumped on neighbors without the power to complain. The city government is too wrapped up in its own corruption to pay attention unless there’s a disastrous failure. And now I’m getting ideas….(2/2)

    #WordWeavers In Sunset Grill: the antagonists in the current storyline would also be horrified. As a group they are Aesop’s dog — the one who dropped his bone in the river because he thought he saw another dog in the water with a bigger, better bone. They have quite a lot; but there are those with *more*, and they can’t stand it. They’re aware there’s also people with less, but they’ve constructed a scenario where Those People Deserve It. My protagonists are largely Those People, so.(2/2)

    #WordWeavers 10.1 — Tell us what you’re working on now. What’s special about the project?(New thread~! I'm back.)Well, I can give you all a quick blurb about it. I suppose it's for the readers to say what's special about the story, not me. But I'm *hoping* people are enjoying it. I've gotten a lot of great feedback so far, and it's only just started. I wanted to work on something a bit spooky for my readers. Here you go: In the gloomy streets of Victorian London, a vampire is moonlighting as a vigilante. They seem to be protecting the innocent and punishing the corrupt under the cover of night. But why, and what is it all for?This is a story of two vampires, former lovers, and the one that was sired. Welcome in Lord Alistair MacKay, the sole owner of Dorcha Castle and a writer and artist in his spare time, his former lover who goes by the name of Fenella, and the one and only man Alistair ever turned, Duncan. The latter is ruthless, and so they bid him farewell a half-century ago, but he’s decided to return. Again, the only question worth asking is why?Here's the story: https://archiveofourown.org/works/71555861/chapters/186282006#WingsOfQuietLonging #ParanormalRomance #Fantasy #Vampires #Werewolves #Ghosts #Romance #Victorian #WritingCommunity #Worldbuilding #AmWriting
