Is there anyone who wonders, like me, why the android owners don't seem to care about the google takeover of our androids without consent?
It's baffling how little reaction we get on this horrific dooms month
Our androids will stop being ours in september 2026

I'm fortunate enough to have been born in a period where the internet did not exist. So I saw everything from the beginning as it was being set up in my section of Terra. The internet was such a peaceful place; we could transmit UID PASS information in ASCII text!
In the period I was born, the smart network people were not even talking about milnet / arpanet
I'm one of the three persons who is also fortunate enough to build the architecture of the internet in my country of SR SA. At that point in time our phone company had high level Engineers who did not even know the difference between an IP address and a physical House address, let alone know how to ask through Archie.ans.net what a specific RFC is and how it should be downloaded with ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com.
None of them could speak Hayes commands like ATX3DT ATA

In this video, Hank Green considers human demand for code, and how that might change as LLMs make coding cheaper.
Will we reach a ceiling, with all our software needs covered? Or will we discover countless new places and ways of using code that would have been unimaginable before?
It's an interesting question, and one that worries me.
I think Hank's right that we will discover strange new applications, and I think we're already seeing that.
I also think that we had fully satisfied the everyday software needs of most people back in the early 2000's. The last new software that really excited me and changed how I live my life was Google Maps, back in 2005.
In my lifetime, most software innovation has been about injecting tech into our lives so it can hitch a ride and extract value from our daily activities. It monitors, manipulates, and intermediates, and this has been extremely profitable.
What does that say about the future headroom for code? Not sure.

Would you be interested in a monthly programming (BASIC & Assembly) activity? Here is what I'm thinking...
So it's not really a competition but more of a monthly participation to help keep some/many folks involved in retro. And yes, emulation is absolutely allowed. I'm not interested in blocking folks who don't have real HW.
I'm thinking the activities (problem the program is to solve) should be fairly simple ideas so novices can join in too. Again, this is not a competition...work together if you'd like. Maybe we have "levels" of difficulty? I don't know...let's see what the interest level is.
Boost for spread please.
(Edit: removed the word 'challenge' as it was brought to my attention it implied competition.)
(Edit: I removed the "Maybe, I have questions" option. It prevents folks from re-voting with a Yes or No. If you're answer would have been "Maybe, I have questions", comment below, get your response, and then vote. Sorry for that hiccup! "

Finally got around to doing the C String lesson, passed the small exercise, and now I am moving on to C User Input. Going to bed late constantly is really cramping my ability to focus properly...I should probably fix that. 😂
The answer for the little exercise was:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
char message[] = "Hello";
printf("%s", message);
return 0;
}
The intended output was: Hello
A very basic ask, constructing a very simple program that would print whatever value was stored in "char message". You could literally put anything in there...I did for memory's sake, though I won't say what it was. ROFL
So, I am learning about C User Inputs...Here is the first real major lesson.
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int myNum;
char myChar;
printf("Type a number AND a character and press enter: \n");
scanf("%d %c", &myNum, &myChar);
printf("Your number is: %d\n", myNum);
printf("Your character is: %c\n", myChar);
return 0;
}
Very useful for user facing fields, handling inputs provided by the user in question. Naturally this could be done in many programming languages, I am sure.
Fun to learn this kind of stuff, especially when I finally make my own mini-programs!
Okay, fgets, stdin, sizeof combining are doing work in the whole gathering C User Inputs...As it allows you to print full names instead of just the first name. Here is an example of what I am talking about:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
// Create a string
char fullName[30];
//Ask the user to input some text (name)
printf("Enter your full name and press enter: \n");
//get and save the text
fgets(fullName, sizeof(fullName), stdin);
//Output the text
printf("Warm sands, %s", fullName);
return 0;
}
Here are the outputs:
Enter your full name and press enter:
Once name is entered:
Warm sands, Reese Rideout
I find myself learning a lot from these lessons. Eventually, I will put them to good use in making simple programs. It is good to learn the fundamentals, as I will know what to look up in case I get lost. ROFL
Now I am learning about C Pointers and Memory Addresses in tandem, how they can be leveraged! This is a very simple thing that creates prints the age value and prints a memory address based on the myAge value:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int myAge = 43;
printf("%d\n", myAge);
printf("%p", &myAge);
return 0;
Expected Printed Values:
43
0x7ffe92b38204 (this output will vary based on the IDE used and your machine)
