@sir working in asm, the JMP was tightly controlled; each section of code had well defined input, output, & modified register lists. Without that, the it was nearly impossible to comprehend.

Later, I came across code (professionally) where there was an inspired genius who liberally used the GOTO. No one could touch it without breaking. This is the more common usage.

Engineered GOTO is fine. Most developers are hacks and cut people with these sharp knives.

@sir it doesn't help that writing a custom allocator is one of the earliest exercises in the white bible.

Strangely it went along the lines of "here's variables, here's printf, here's pointers. Now write an allocator/deallocator"

@dualhammers @sir looks similar to mine: https://www.amazon.com/Freestyle-Ergonomic-Mechanical-Programmable-Adjustable/dp/B07CX9KQRQ/

@imacrea if you share on mastodon, other mastodon & pleroma instances can comment/boost it.

If you share on pixelfed, mastodon & pleroma instances can comment/boost it, but no other pixelfed instances can see it.

@dansup but you run *such* a nice blog there

@martijnbraam "inferior to webp, despite what Mozilla says"

@rtwx @dansup @jookia is throwing posts over a wall to other system types really considered federation?

@dthompson which one? Interested to hear a review.

@sir an empty inbox may be a sign of a cluttered mind.

Or someone with lots of spare time and/or OCD.
