If you're wondering why authors are getting so rabid here: First Anthropic stole our books. Then we got denied compensation because of US unjust copyright law and publishers failing to meet their contractual obligations. Then publishers and agents apparently claimed author shares. Now this.
![screenshot of some simple C code that creates a few useless variables and does math on them, then calls the fox32rom API to draw it to the display as text. the fox32 emulator is open in the corner and this program was run in it, and it worked as expected! the code is as follows:
int test(char foxes) {
int stuff = foxes + 16;
return foxes + stuff + 32;
}
void draw(char *str, int value) {
__asm (
"\tmov r0, [rsp]\n"
"\tmov r1, 16\n"
"\tmov r2, 16\n"
"\tmov r3, 0xFFFFFFFF\n"
"\tmov r4, 0xFF000000\n"
"\tmov r10, [rsp+4]\n"
"\tcall [0xF0042008]" // draw_format_str_to_background
);
}
int main() {
int testVar = 5;
testVar += 5;
int anotherVar = testVar + 10;
int numFoxes = 4;
for (int i = 0; i < 32; i++) {
numFoxes += test(numFoxes);
}
draw("hello chat!! foxes = %u", numFoxes);
return 0;
