#ProgrammingLanguages, targets, and platforms
I started as a #Java developer, but for some time now, I have broadened my horizons. Recently, I thought about how early languages were dedicated to a single target and platform, and now they are broadening their focus. In this post, I want to …

Hrmm, Zig is an interesting language...figured I'd kick the tires and figure out what's going on. So far it's been pretty nice.

Things I've learned today:
- Valgrind does not support AVX512 instructions. That was an adventure because I was writing purposefully bad code at the time...
- However, changed strategies and used `clang` with the `fsanitize=address,undefined` option which seems to work perfectly fine.

Just wrote a fun little algorithm for iterating through all grid positions within X euclidean distance from a center, roughly in order of distance but also mostly ensuring each position yielded is at least diagonally adjacent to the previous. It's a fun problem to think about with lots of design tradeoffs and many valid solutions.
My solution requires that the origin be on the grid (I think?) and uses a bunch of caching instead of a bajillion distance checks, although I don't actually know what the memory/speed tradeoff is like or whether there are any gains at all (could be net losses, which I'm starting to wonder about more as I write this post). Thankfully I don't expect performance to be very critical here anyways, and doing the caching actually helped separate some logic in a useful way.
A fun little diversion from bigger stuff in the project and a reminder of some of the joys of programming design at a small scope. Feels kinda like mastering the local town's minigame while you're stuck on the main quest in an RPG.

Sonarcube issue: You have 0% coverage for your test class.
Alright, so it's asking who surveys the surveyors, I guess? :morty:

Been coding a lot lately. If anyone is looking for a selfhosted git repository manager, Forgejo is absolutely great to work with! #selfhosted #programming #git

BTW I’m still angry that nobody told me that left recursion in recursive descent parsers generated from PEGs was a solved problem

Do the simplest thing that will work, except for when you need to do the most robust and forward-thinking thing that will work.
Determining when to do which, that's the rub.

I have now reached the "how did this ever work?" stage of debugging.
#PHP #Programming

Code that used to work but now doesn't is the bane of my existence. And yes, there are tests. That doesn't answer *why* this thing no longer works, despite no changes to the relevant files.
