In a suckless context, tho
This is arguing about what kind of pencil you ought to use to draw the
bike shed design and never even getting around to disagreeing about what
color to paint it.

Not that this sort of thread can really go anywehere else, sadly, but

We all saw there was a lot of *opinions*, albeit written as dogmas, let

I was being quite serious. Not everything posted on April 1st is a joke.
I eventually got fed up with harmful.cat-v.org, because all it listed
was derision, but no actual justification. Just like you.
Ciao,

God! I barely did notice we were the first of April... and I was surprised to
see ideas
so much remote from suckless stated here.
Got me guys. I fell for it.
doh!

I know this is bait but I'll bite:

have 0 concept of how much abstraction there already is between them

that's achieved by going from logic gates to C is fucki

Dear David,
You are of the type of human being I, genuinely, sort of dislike. Namely a
syntax
kludge and excessive abstraction lover.
Your first sentence is already an insult to "suckless" people: "won't you write
in assembly next time?"

I'd be glad to get any reason why not. C is already minimalistic, won't
you write in assembly next time?
Moreover, enums are often well supported in debuggers and show the
actual enum constant rather t

I'd disagree. Once you choose a language, any choices about how you
write that language are style.

There is also a style page[0] at suckless. But again style is subjective
and the most important thing is consistency within a project.

"opinions" is the right term: subjective person
Expect a thousand conflicting opinions. If you're truly interested in
programming, your best bet is to look at as many ideas as possible then
working on your ability to sort the bullshit out.
Good luck; you'll need it.

Hi,
I would recommend to simply to C projects. Suckless.org is great place
to find sane C code with simple Makefiles. If you already are programmer,
you should be able to learn C by just using it, no reading necessary.
This way you should get a solid understanding of the basic quite fast
