I am sorry to inform you that it was #include "assert.h" with a lot of instrumentation for ubsan, asan etc./

Shieldfoss @shieldfoss.bsky.social · 08/07/2024

I know you've considered this already but possibly you dismissed it too fast: Would it work to compile from source? I've solved... remarkably many problems this way and, surprisingly, not actually broken anything (This is not because I'm a gentoo fiend, I'm on casual Pop!_OS)

What I'm trying to say is "Please please I want a built-in slice type." (I want a built-in slice type in C++ too but I'm *almost* ok with itr pairs and/or std::span)

Fun fact: As a challenge I wrote an entire slice library without testing it until the whole thing was done, then ran it through sanitizers to see how many errors would have slipped through. It was a *fantastic* library. It was *absolutely useless* because C invariants are fake. I hate it here

Not in particular but if you'd care to share, I'll look and see if there's anything that immediately scares me away.

Funny, I was looking into this very thing earlier today. I didn't dig deep but the very very top overview was "faster than C++ because pointers aren't allowed to alias, better than C because arrays aren't nonsense." And then I stopped digging because "yeah that seems plausible."

8th edition "Pro C# 7 with .NET and .NET Core" by Troelsen and Japiksen, p. 143: "Simply put, the role of System.ValueType is to ensure that the derived type (...) is allocated on the stack, rather than on the garbage-collected heap." Second time this type of nonsense has happened to me THIS MONTH

It's 13 years old by now but I just read Lippert's blog on it and I think my response is "I Guess <shrug emoji>"

> if they don't leave the function Wait what I thought that was just a guarantee at all times (except for, like, value types IN classes where they get alloc'd with the clas) Have I been allocating when I thought I was just on the stack D:
