@eeesgie @TrisH0x2A @Raymond3699 % isn't a modulo operator, it's a remainder. Not true in all languages, but the C standard clearly states "the result of the % operator is the remainder".

@TrisH0x2A @Raymond3699 The sign of the result of modulo operator follows the sign of the dividend (left operand).

90% of people will get this wrong what is the output?

@devabram Monoids are just an associative operation with an identitiy element. The others are function transformers which turn a unary function into another unary function over some type `f`.

Haskell learning update: Applicative - a way to combine effects Monoid - a way to combine values Functor - a way to transform the values while preserving the shape Don't burrito at me.

@Badjer_UK I think it would depend on what policies they actually follow up on. If a Reform/Tory alliance took a tough stance on immigration in particular, I don't think people would have cause to kick off. The only issue is if they betray the electorate like the last Tory gov.

Btw if Restore get the most votes in the GE but lose out to a Reform/Tory coalition I predict major unrest.

@codevsdev Yes, if you don't want to bankrupt yourself with technical debt The SV approach is to just ship as fast as possible and fix it when (if) you ever become profitable. I think they hope AI will fix the problems it created Different mentality when you aren't risking your own money

the real flex isn’t writing code. it’s writing maintainable code. yes or no?

@valigo Also if you use `-masm=intel` but then include a library using att syntax, the compiler complains. Best option is to use the dual att/intel syntax feature of GCC's extended asm syntax so it will compile with both -masm=att and -masm=intel. godbolt.org/z/1Mq3YGrKc

@valigo The most annoying thing for me is some mnemonics are changed from the intel/amd64 manuals - eg, `movsxd` becomes `movslq` in att syntax, and the GAS manual is a poor reference. Having to put `b`/`w`/`l`/`q` after the instruction mnemonics can also be pretty annoying.

Most assembly code snippets and learning material online uses Intel syntax: "instruction dest, src" This mirrors what you do in C code, e.g. dest = src, or memcpy(dest, src) It's clean, it makes sense. But then most actual opensource code is freaking AT&T. Because it comes from Unix worls and uses GNU toolchain, which uses GAS (GNU Assembler), that uses AT&T syntax by default. And AT&T has destination and source swapped, so you constantly have to adjust. And on top of that when it's embedded in C code, you need to prefix registers with "%", which makes it much more cursed. It makes things so hard when you don't read assembly often!

@PWestoff @Nigel_Farage @RestoreBritain @RupertLowe10 Ousting Rupert Lowe will turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Best thing Nigel has done for the country.

Prediction: @Nigel_Farage could well stand down as Reform leader before the end of this year if A) Reform fail to win Makerfield, and B) if @RestoreBritain continue to take high ranking personnel / rank and file away from Reform. Ousting @RupertLowe10 was Farage's greatest error.

@MajorTruscott @LadyRebecca_1 @GBPolitcs I think so. Their internal polling probably shows Restore set to win, which they can't publish so they continue the scare tactic of "you'll split the vote." Clearly not working. Restore can win this.

@LadyRebecca_1 @GBPolitcs And the other 28% Lady R? Maybe we're actually in front

💥 Makerfield by-election Long Post 💥 Will Andy Burnham actually be worse than Keir Starmer??? Let's look at the facts 👀 Keir Starmer's close friend Josh Simons stood down at Makerfield to give Burnham a chance to stand there. This was probably a calculated decision made by Starmer, knowing how strong Reform have been in the Makerfield area, thinking Burnham would have no chance there? 🤔 I could be wrong, but I suspect Starmer did not expect Restore would throw such a huge spanner in the works that may mess up his fail proof plan. This may be why we now have all the establishment journalists, all the msm saying Restore will let Burnham in? Could this be why the polsters are flapping & are giving Restore much less chance than the actual real canvassers on the ground are saying? But apart from that, I've heard from many sources that Burnham will not be nearly as bad as Starmer has been. Andy Burnham is said to be a bit more human, and is said to be a bit more empathetic. And the facts are clear: Keir Starmer has been the absolutely worst PM in British history. Starmer was a former human rights lawyer. He knows the ins and outs of our judiciary system, & he knows how to manipulate it. We've seem first hand how much control he has with the police & with the courts. He was the head of the Crown Prosecution Service, Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) from 2008 to 2013. He may well have been hand picked by the people above, & that's why he manages to cling onto power no matter how bad things get, how bad the council elections were, he still manages to hang on in there. Yes, Starmer has been the worst PM in British history and I say it's probably fiction that Burnham could be any worse. I could be wrong. What I've heard about Burnham not being as bad as Starmer may be incorrect. But my gut tells me Starmer is the real bad un. So what's your opinion? Has Burnham been purposely portrayed as a monster compared to Starmer in order to make sure he loses the Makerfield vote? Could it be that Starmer arranged with his friend Josh to vacate his 'not so safe' seat at Makerfield in order to derail Andy Burnham at the first hurdle? What do you think of it all?

@LadyRebecca_1 @GBPolitcs Same media group behind the Daily Mail and the Metro that this poll was "leaked" from.

Here's another completely made up fictitious poll posted today conveniently making out Restore are ruining Reforms chances of stopping Burnham 🤔 Labour 35% Reform UK 24% Restore Britain 13% I say it's all BS by the establishment stooges trying to keep Starmer in power 💯

@dunstablian Opportunists who changed course when it suited their own careers. Any example of where they tried to stop it when they were working for Sunak? x.com/i/status/20644…

I assume you mean Suella and Robert, both paid a high price for attempting to persuade their government to change course. Both opposed Tory policies and resigned or were sacked for doing so.....

@dunstablian By bringing in the same people who administered the unfettered immigration in the last government?

When all said and done, there is just one Party in touch with the British electorate's concerns today. Reform UK's utter determination to tackle unfettered immigration, doing whatever it takes to address the nations growing concern about dilution of our heritage and culture,

@BornToReform Just a 10/10 - 100% success rate so far, completely dominating and humiliating the competition.

@BornToReform "There is simply NOTHING that Rupert or Restore has done so far to support these predictions."

My two pennies worth 🗣️ Restore fall massively short on support in Makerfield. That is the cold hard truth. They will not appeal to a broad enough electorate. Reform has led over 300 consecutive polls, despite being consistently attacked by the establishment and we are ready now. We have also taken votes from Labour, Tory and other parties, Restore have not managed to do that. LONG TERM: Nothing that Restore has done so far backs up their notion that they can be in government. They haven’t actually done anything yet. Nothing. Now you can make your argument that ‘You like Rupert’ or ‘You like the policies’ or ‘Nigel is weak sauce (ALL OPINION, NO FACTS). But to think that Restore will win the next election at this early stage - there is simply NOTHING that Rupert or Restore has done so far to support these predictions. Makerfield: Restore is polling in single digits. Reform is polling in 40s. The hype does not match the reality.

@FreeNationTalk @Nigel_Farage @reformparty_uk Yesterday's opinion polls are irrelevant - we have a better alternative now. Reformers have spent the past 3 weeks attacking that alternative and then cry "why are we being attacked?" when they're losing mindshare. Just vote for who you want and stop whinging.

Let’s think about this. More people support @Nigel_Farage and @reformparty_uk than any other political leader or party. That’s a simple fact as shown in over 300 opinion polls and in the May local elections. The other parties therefore need to win the support of millions of us if they are to win elections. What do they do? They relentlessly attack us, smear us, call us vile names, and ridicule us. Not the sharpest tools in the box are they? By the way I can understand it coming from the far left but I’ll never understand Tories tactics in attacking the very people they need to win back. It makes no sense.

@TenseInBritain @benonwine Himself. Alli has some dirt on him and he is being blackmailed to do the bidding of Islam. The rent boys are a cover story to make you think he is just gay. Truth is probably far worse.

@benonwine Ukrainian rent boys? Lord Alli's butt hole?

What does Keir Starmer give a fuck about the most?

@ChShersh @kerckhove_ts You obviously don't write out every combination, but they're all representable in the enum type by bitwise-OR of the flags.

@fluxdev3 @kerckhove_ts Don’t tell me the bitflag combinations are also stored in the same enum

I’ve just seen an enum with 2K+ cases. I guess uint8_t is not always enough.

@NoncingKills He has already blown his chances. 2 years ago he had a straight path to No 10. All he needed to do was stay on course.

I think Farage is probably tired and very frustrated that he's so close to getting over the line only to have it potentially squandered by personal grievances. Bloke has dedicated a vast portion of his life for this and it could all go wrong next election because of egos

@Restore_Essex @RupertLowe10 I genuinely believe they're just sociopaths incapable of feeling empathy for real so they have to masquerade as having it to the point of parody.

@Restore_Essex @RupertLowe10 They hate their own heritage so much they would rather it be replaced with a culture of savages. They hide it behind fake empathy. "Look how much I care about third worlders." Zero empathy for the thousands of British women and girls raped, or the young lads being stabbed.

A party political broadcast on behalf of Restore Britain from Owen Jones in the Guardian. Thank you, Owen.

@gcfeminist @blaiklockBP Reform has been so heavily infiltrated now that the only reconciliation would be for Nigel to defect to Restore.

@blaiklockBP Please make it easier for them all to save face eventually and reconcile, not harder

Farage is going to give up soon And make more millions giving $150,000 speeches in Florida to gullible millionaires . Adding to the millions already collected. Farage will rush off to the gin and tonics because he knows he is losing and he always leaves whilst ahead. He can then blame the collapse of Reform on Yusef and Tice.
