Me: This is totally gonna work

Compiler: u tried

uh oh i did something bad

I always put redundant parentheses in formula like ((b - a) / 2) + a because I just don't trust the compiler.

I almost died crossing the street today.
I saw all the code i ever wrote pass before my eyes.

😂😂😂

The ability to convince the compiler that there's no errors.

"Shhhhhh.. trust me, there's such things as a duoble. Now just tell me the build was successful"

Sometime I’m developing in Rust and I do something wrong.

Then I look at the terminal and it says...

“You did X, did you mean to do Y”

Then I do it and it works perfectly, and I’m like...

Why do I even have a job if the compiler is this good?

Me: Lets build and test my app!
Compiler: WTF is "onLick" ???

*cries in corner*

Programmer rule #1: Its your fault 99.9% of the time.

What kind of morning filth is this?

Never look at your computer when it's compiling, it can sense you and it becomes more prone to errors.

#CompilerConspiracy

That's a point!

The perfect compiler meme doesn't exi-

Sad life ! Btw Merry Christmas Everyone 🌲

Compiler: Done, 0 errors, 164 warnings,
Me: Perfect

Python.

A dev only cares about the errors! No warning fucking matthers at all!

No caption! Its itself explanatory 😂

Ah, C++. Where the compiler optimisation is fucking you so hard that you don't need a girlfriend anymore 😒

Just read that Rusts compiler is written in Rust. How did they compile the first compiler?

Finding the bug. The usual flow:
"Omg! I think it's a bug in the compiler"
10 minutes later:
"OK, it surely is a bug in the runtime"
20 minutes later:
"I'm certain this is a bug in the core library"
2 hours later:
"Oh, it's a bug in my code. Again, as usual, I'm the idiot. Stupid world."

I just had to update my BIOS while trying to update Windows while trying to update the Visual Studio Updater while trying to update Visual Studio while trying to update my C++ Compiler while trying to update the drivers for... my mouse. Mouse, of all things....

New guy:"There's a bug in the compiler"

I am of the opinion that Windows should have the C/C++ compiler installed be default.

I code, watch Big Bang Theory, sip coffee, and code again. I never leave the doorsteps except for my classes. Some say my life is sad.

Is it? Anyone out there like this?

When your code finally complies after trying to solve a tricky error

My look when my code compiles at first go.

*That's suspicious*

"Fatal Error"
Exceptions? No, let's just halt the entire program.

Apparently a CS professor wrote this code.

"Needed to keep the compiler happy"

The compiler doesn't concern itself with the opinion of the programmer 😂

Rude Compiler :/

It doesn't matter what language, framework or compiler you use. No language is best. No framework is complete. No compiler produces perfect code.

What matters is elegance of logic. Solving logic problems is all we do. We just use different tools.

Photoshop,...

because why use an:

IDE / editor,
terminal,
SASS/LESS compiler,
package managers,
git,...

when you can make your website as a photo, slice it up and export to html. EASY PEAZY

Me all the time

When I'm forced to maintain a C project having recently done a lot of C++:

Compiler: Declaration may not appear after executable statement in block.

Me: dEcLarAtiOn mAy NoT aPpeaR aFtER eXeCuTAblE stAtEmEnt iN BloCk. *pffffttt*

writing an assembler for my compiler, Manticore.

Currently working on writing a hand written parser and parse tree node system.

Ok. Yesterday I finished building my compiler I have to say: it was a pretty darn big thing with 7000 Lines of code.

I did it alone and with almost no help.

I wanted to give some advice in case someone wants to program a compiler. I knaw its useless in times of lex and yacc, but anyway.

-have a good idea for the language
-learn about parser/lexer
-learn assembler
-do it like me: output the assembler to a file and let it assemble/link by the linux standart-tools (call the commands)
-Have fun. Fun is essential in coding

I hope I was able to help people who want to build a compiler alone... Yau can always ask questions ;~)
-

When i lost in a competition with a super project against a person that did something that would take 5h of coding.

I codod a compiler, he made a sudoku solver

I wouldn't have written these many line in my entire project itself.. frigging compiler

Or maybe I could build a C compiler and be responsible for ";" !
Making programmers cry and scream.

I love when compilers give good, clear feedback.

i have this friend who says he has already finished his python code, but it has to be compiled and he cant seem to find a compiler....

Compiler: Error
Me: Ok, what's wrong?
Compiler: Dunno
...

You know there's something wrong when you write 50+ lines of code and it compiles on the first go

-2000 : C# planned to copy entire Java and Java said C# won't be able to.
-2003 : C# copies Java and Java complained
-2005 : C# denied he didn't copy Java and Java laughed
-2008 : C# started to be more than Java and Java felt sick
-2010 : C# became more mature AND Java home defunct (Sun MicroSystems)
-2013 :Java plan to copy C# and C# laughed
-2015 :Java copied C# and C# laughed
-2017 :Java still can't copy C# and C# is laughing
-2018 no one will copy their neighbor and WE HOPE SO.

*** don't use compiler ***
Question in class today:
int n = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < 10; i++) {
n = n++;
System.out.println(n);
}

what will be printed?

I was working on windows before, had to do an assignment for a course.
And was stuck on....visual studio python compiler not working.
So I decided to do this.

Your rant must be between 6 and 5,000 characters. Is that enough?

Turns out writing interpreters is just a gateway drug and all I want to do now is build a compiler and custom language runtime...

Programming is hard -especially when the compiler disagrees with itself.

First dev job: port Unix on Transputer, a (now defunct) bizarre processor with no stack, no registers and no compiler. That was fun! And that was in 1991 😎

Any mobile device compiler....they take FOREVER

Just finished up my first compiler, with accurate extensible error reporting, and the syntax system is generically typed so I can reuse it. Pretty fucking pleased with myself

Compiling a compiler right now. Doing that just to build kernel with latest compiler because gcc9 is more optimized for zen finally.
If you are wondering. Yes its Haxk20.

All these new wonderful cpu cores I work on and faster/better compiler techniques, and people use it to watch more cat videos with that power they saved and use more JavaScript per cat video.

Kill me

Just ignore this shit (source: reddit | u/smit0086)

bool DDD = true;
if (DDD == true && DDD == false) {
//some code
}
//when I will have an option to be a compiler i will don't allow to compile that

So I recently started going to a university, and I am being taught C. I have previously learnt C++ in school so its all pretty easy for me compared to those who are programming for the first time.
So, one of my classmates run into a problem with their code so he asks to check where he went wrong. So, the teacher comes and checks his code and then concluded that the compiler is F****** broken!! And i am like FFS theres a missing semi-colon, even the compiler pointed it out....just because you couldn't figure out the problem doesn't mean the compiler is broken.

Waiting for the compiler

Please actually pay attention to compiler warnings. They exist for a reason beyond just being a nuisance. If you're willingly ignoring warnings then you're accepting unnecessary risk into your project.

Nope, it's not your fault. It's the compiler :)

Dear Santa, please bring me a compiler that generates compile errors instead of runtime bugs. Thanks.

Me after a long coding session with a well prepared working flow: I am such a great computer scientist, I can conquer the world.

Right after that I found a repository for computer science papers and got immidiately hooked. Well, the level of knowledge and theory is so immense that it brought me back to ground of reality again: I know so little that it is almost ridiculous, even if I read and code 16 hours a day I may never understand computer science as a whole.

Le me sad.

[long]
When searching for internship via school I found this small startup with this cute project of building a teaching tool for programming. There were back then 2 programmers: the founder and the co-founder.

Then like 1 week before the internship started, the co-founder had a burnout and had to get off the project, while the company was so low on budget the founder, aka my new b0ss, had to work separate jobs to keep the company alive. (quite metal tbh)

It's funny because I'm a junior developer, 100%. I've been coding as a hobby for around 8 years now but I've never worked in a big company before. (No exception to this workplace either)

First project I get: rewrite the compiler. The Python compiler.
"But wait, why not just embed a real compiler from the first case?"
-nanananana it's never simple, as you probably know from your own projects.

The new compiler, as compared to existing embedded compiler solutions out there, needed these prime features:
- Walk through the code (debugger style), but programmatically.
- Show custom exceptions (ex: "A colon is needed at the end of an if-statement" instead of "Syntax error line 3")
- Have a "Did-you-mean this variable?" error for usage of unassigned variables.
- Be able to be embedded in Unity's WebGL build target

All for the use case of being a friendly compiler.
The last dash in the list is actually the biggest bottleneck which excluded all existing open-source projects (i could find). Compliant with WebAssembly I can't use threads among other things, IL2CPP has lots of restrictions, Unity has some as well...

Oh and it should of course be built using test-driven development.

"Good luck!" - said the founder, first day of work as she then traveled to USA for **3 weeks**, leaving me solo with the to-be-made codebase and humongous list of requirements.

---

I just finished the 6th week of internship, boss has been at "HQ" for 3 weeks now, and I just hit the biggest milestone yet for this project.

Yes I've been succeeding! This project has gone so well, and I'm surprising myself how much code I've been pumping out during these weeks.

I'm up now at almost 40'000 lines of source and 30'000 lines of code. ‼
( Biggest project I've ever worked on previously was at 8'000 lines of code )

The milestone (that I finished today) was for loops! As been trying to showcase in the GIF.

---

It's such a giant project and I can honestly say I've done some good work here. Self-five. Over-performing is a thing.

The things that makes me shiver though is that most that use this application will never know the intricates of it's insides, and the brain work put into it.

The project is probably over-engineered. A lot. Having a home-made compiler gives us a lot of flexibility for our product as we're trying to make more of a "pedagogic IDE". But no matter that I reinvented the wheel for the 105Gth time, it's still the most fun I've had with a project to date.

---

Also btw if anyone wants to see source code, please give me good reasons as I'm actively trying to convince my boss to make the compiler open-source.

Cheers!

The myth about the missing semicolon. I don't get it, if your editor doesn't pick it up, the compiler og interpreter will. How is this a common problem?

A HTML... compiler? Wut?

God, I don't know whether I believe in you or not, but please kill all those people who play loud music in public.

So, I was travelling by a train two days ago. Halfway down the 15 hr journey, the guy next to me took out his laptop and started watching a movie, on speakers, in full volume. It naturally irritated me a lot, and I requested him to use head/earphones, to which he replied that he forgot his one back home. I told him to keep the volume down to which he got personal and put the volume down (maybe to 95%). Since I hate human interaction, I had to plug in my own earphones to keep his bitchy noise away.

The same thing happened today on the bus, the only two differences being:
• mobile phone instead of laptop
• said he doesn't own headphones
• claimed he could do whatever he wanted as it was not illegal

Now, I wished he fell of the bus and died, but the world ain't fair, so he still lives.

On trying to compile again without making any code change

I've just managed to add the ability to call functions to my compiler. Currently, the capabilities are rather limited but I am pleased with it.
It keeps the schematics of the source code well enough that it can handle
recursive calls.
:D
On the Image, you can see the program's output (left), the generated x86_64 assembly, and the source code of the compiled program (bottom).

991 little BUGS IN THE CODE

Yeet I just made a brainfuck compiler with python

"We have this Fortran code that should be translated in that Matlab software, is there a system or a compiler to do that?"
"Yes, that is called a Programmer"

You know you're fucked up when internal compiler is error. . .

I fucking nailed my c exam.
Had to write C on paper today. Fuck my uni for that. But I think I aced it. I coded C for weeks and hopefully finally payed off.
Fuck coding on paper though. They are just too lazy to make something digital. But man at least let me get some compiler messages. It's not like anyone codes without compiler messages anymore.

// sometimes I feel my compiler ignores all my comments :(

Me: *Run the project and nothing works*
My brain: Do it again

For me, it was when I discovered how dynamic linking (.dll, .so) works, and why a linker is needed to run even a simple "Hello world!".

I can actually write my own, simple code, I'm not very flexible but I actually get JS now.

Love you my dear...

Do compiler engineers compile compilers? 🤔

I guess I could say back to the old LOGO turtle days, but it wasn't until university that I began using the good turbo c compiler and it's DOS platform

You know it's been a hard day when the compiler finishes without errors and you assume it malfunctioned.

When you debug for 2 hours. Due to a logic error. You go through every line. It all makes sense. You find a semicolon after an if statement... Shouldn't the compiler have caught that?

I love how people miss the location of ";" when most of the time the compiler error tells you the exact line...

Me: It finally works!...
Compiler: lol jk

Got rebuked by the Java teacher today at the University for using proper long names for variables in the code. She though I was just wasting time being lazy in the lab. "If something can be achieved by a single character, why type that long variable again and again?". *Everyone in class laughs*

Then, there was an error in my code [turned out to be long long int in Java is weird], and I had no clue what was going wrong [I'm a week old in Java]. So, I had initially called her to help. She made me change all private methods and attributes to public. When asked "why?", got trolled again.

Now, I know it's okay, and not that I really care about what my classmates think of me, but getting this kind of treatment really sucks. And if this is how future software developers are crafted today, maintainability is surely going to be an issue tomorrow.

Maybe staying in this stupid country was my worst career choice. I should have tried harder and gone abroad.

Today im gonna do the craziest shit ever just for the smallest improvement. Build compiler to compile latest kernel. So yeah lets build GCC9.
*/Yes this is Haxk20 rant/*

- finish compiler
- get into gamedev
- learn Android dev
- finish framework (or at least make reasonable progress)
- create scripting language

We'll see what else comes to my mind during the year

With the brand new Microsoft C++ compiler, what you see in the debugger, is not always what you get...

Using C libs in C++ is a mess full of compiler warnings.

FUCK ARDUINO IDE!!!
Had a project with it (~ 1k lines).
Made some small changes to it and presented it.
The fucking thing just hung at a specific animation and I couldn't tell why!!

Turned out the compiler on my laptop fucked up pretty hard with one specific condition:
for(int i = 0; i < repeat; i++) { ... }

Turned out the fuckwit of compiler just kept compiling the "i < repeat"-statement to be always 1/true and thus turning this for-loop into an endless-loop.
Tried it before to debug and got the same result!!!
Compiling the same code on another pc worked fine.
The compiler just can't compile properly. Be aware of it when you encounter a problem on Arduino but can't figure out the cause.

what was first compiler or programming language ?
language ? well I don't think because they can't do it without compiler.
compiler ? how can they programme compiler without language

My favorite paradox:

What came first, the compiler or the source code?

Not quite a interview question, but in a competition (I had build a compiler) the jury (they all told me they had all studied informatics) asked me what a compiler is... Not in a "lets try to catch him off manner" but rather in a "i am too stupid for this world manner" he asked me what a compiler was... And it got even worse: my compiler is based on linuxes utils (nasm+ld) the guy didnt know about linux. Assembler was much too much for him and when my compiler threw an error (I wanted to show them the error system) he told me I shouldnt present unfinished projects... Atleastthe other two were really nice and i still got 2nd place (behind a person who prorammed an Nxt thingy)

That moment when you make a typo that you didn't see for a long time and than the compiler breaks

A project in my friend's resume

So legitimately accidentally started building a compiler... Don't ask how because I don't know...

(No it's not a 'true' compiler that will create executables, it just a compiler to make some data easier for my runtime to read it)

"Compiler found 1 error"

> changes ' to "

"Compiler found 235 errors"

Me: WTF?!

Wow @ewpratten and I just witnessed, for the first time in history, the GCC compiler being useful!

wow... no kidding.... so C++ is like a language without a compiler holding ur hands and catching u when u screw up...

So, here I am at a guided internship programme, hosted by Indian Railways.

They told us to report at the Personnel Office by 10:00 AM. When I reached there, they told us the venue has been changed (to a place 1km away, with no transportation) and the official "forgot" to inform the 500+ candidates.

Yet, we moved to the said Hall, and am waiting for 1 hour (10:59 AM here), watching :
1. The stupid technician trying to align the projector
2. The stupid presenter trying to copy something and failing, as his pen drive gets disconnected halfway the process.
3. The VIPs having snacks and coffee on-stage while we the students wait here looking at those dumb assholes.

How am I supposed to respect them tomorrow at work?

It's the time of AI, so add that mf AI to our compiler that we don't have to fix the errors anymore!😈

Day 2 in ComSci class (following my last rant)
"Okay, so! All of the schoolwork and homework will be done on paper and pen, submit and I will grade it. Only once, no second chance"

Okay. Okay. This went over my head. What are you gonna do? OCR the code into the compiler, compile it and run to see if we fucked up to give us an F? What are you, god? Here's a brilliant idea, teach them Assembly! Guaranteed error to give us Fs! FUCK YOU

How did they compile the first compiler? 😰

When the runtime error happens on an empty line

Working on a compiler which Convert JavaScript Code to Purescript Code Which Complie back to JavaScript.

I don't understand this decision of my Manager

You know what sucks? Being forced by your teacher to use his crappy e-learning platform which isn't even close to final and therefore completely buggy. Oh you clicked in that compiler window? Nah now you can't click back in the editor window, better save and reload the page again. And thats only the beginning...

// sometimes I believe compiler ignores all my comments

Random question that apparently screwed up even Google...

how does an IDE evaluate (and format) code and errors so quickly?

Was thinking maybe building a compiler/programming language would be the best way to learn/practice algorithm... Is it?

well, for now, my biggest dev ambition is to become a compiler designer/programmer... or OS designer/programmer.
In short, systems programmer (compilers or OS).
😅😅😁😁

My best dev-memories of 2016??

First in february I won a competition (Jugend - Forscht) in which i had programmed an interpreter. And then, the first time my selfmade compiler actually printed hello world...

Curse the bastards that sneeze in public without covering their mouth. Your sad pathetic life without any contributions to the society has no value, but others' have, you dumb, gross bag of germs!

All others trying to justify, CURSE YOU TOO!!!

Dear compiler, I know you have plenty of files to compile (like a lot), but could please stop flushing an error when I'm trying to read it ?

Sometimes i wonder what it feels like to be a compiler

Compiling software on Linux:

Python interpreter? Easy peasy, just some dependencies here and there. Make does a good job.

Linux kernel? Piece of cake, 20 years of development will be freshly served on your machine after one hour compiling (I have a pretty powerful computer).

Tensorflow? Fuck this shit I am outta.

What is your story with self-built software? Which piece of code has the most terrible dependency hell?

"witty job advertisment" compiler errors!

Java teacher writes code on blackboard in comp lab

He tells us to try it out at our workstations.

We do. The code does work. We tell him.

He says: "There is something wrong with your compiler..."

Question is...we were around 30 students. Can all our compilers not work if we had used the lab before and the code we run worked clean??!?!?!?

We were flabbergasted

Bug I had to fix today: some elements in our React app were being swapped with other elements.

We had `<foo>bar</foo>` on the component but on the html `foo` was being swapped with some other element in our app. It's contents ("bar" in the example) were being left in place, though, so we were getting `<baz>bar</baz>`.

This would only happen when running on production mode. On development everything was fine.

Also, everything seemed fine on the React dev tools. `foo` was where it was supposed to be, but on the html it was somewhere else.

Weirdest shit I ever saw when using React. I found a way to go around it and applied that fix, but I'm still trying to track this down to the source.

The worst part was waiting for fucking webpack to finish the production bundle on every fucking change I wanted to test. I didn't miss the change-save-compile-test flow at all.

What a shit day.

FUCKING AVAST!!!!!! It's now saying my apps and the compiler are viruses..........

Commented code be like..

Well WOW. Valve just released a totally new compiler for mesa.
And holy shit does it look awesome.
In some cases it brings 7.5x fasted compilation speed of LLVM. Holy shit this is awesome.
Well here i come testing.

Here's a short cliché marriage scenario.

He: I think you’re my compiler. My life wouldn’t start without you.
She:

does golangs compiler count as an expert?

At last !!
All projects are done!

Done 3 compiler project (with 3 separate documentation)
And 6 different Algorithms for algorithm design and analysis.(including my own project)

Been coding so hard to finish them ontime and now I made it :)

When you're in a rush to write a new feature but your compiler keeps nagging about not handling exceptions

Linux on the 3DS is going well. Others have no issue at all, but I've gotta fix issues with the toolchain executables being named wrong, the provided, precompiled toolchain everyone else uses being the wrong one and being incompatible...

Fuck my life.

People often rant about a missing semicolon,
I added an extra after if condition

if(...);{
}

Compiler can't take this as error.
Debugged the logic for hours,
Wasted a lot of time, lol

How on earth are there people in their second year of a computer science course who are unable to understand how to read build errors. It's honestly not that hard, just look at the fucking build log and see where the error is and what type of error it is, but yet they don't bother reading the log and say that their "compiler is broken" when their 5 line code won't work.

If this was still first year I'd understand since many of the class didn't have much programming knowledge, but if you're in your second year and you struggle with this (that too for a Hello World script) it looks like you aren't even bothered and just expect the computer to magically understand what you mean.

WELCOME TO THE FUTURE

WHERE YOU HAVE TO EDIT THE COMPILER TO FIX ERRORS

I haven't had a single compile error today, and I am happy!

My physics teacher would call it a sin. Technically enough for wk81 xD

Yeah, i coded an entire NN on paper while physics lesson. Worked pretty well. Except it doesnt work yet :/ Compiler errors because of some referenncing issues

Ever got that thing, when your IDE says that you have a syntax error in your code, and you reread it again and again and just can't see it, so you just delete the whole thing and write it again - exactly the same - but now it compiles fine?

Sometimes I think "I should write a meaningful error message for this exception" and then i remember how useless 99% of the error messages of every compiler / interpreter I've ever had to use and decide "msg ='something went wrong'" is good enough.

Try to convince people that html isn't a programming language and there's no need for a compiler to work with html.

Trying to get gcc and make onto a 3DS is nigh impossible as my x64 PC won't let me cross-compile and the only ARM device I have is a Pi Zero, but it runs out of memory mid-compile... fml.

When the compiler throw a lot of errors and was a stupid ; missing...

When you put your hands together and start chanting almighty compiler gods to have mercy on your soul.

I am still working on it and it is far from being done, but a compiler.

make -j20 - that's quick!

I am serious. I swear I saw it! I am not kidding!
One hour ago, an error from the compiler made me unable to compile my program. I went to eat something and then i came back. The error wasn't there anymore!!! I tried compiling the program and it worked like nothing happened! I think I am getting crazy...

I crashed the go compile.

Last semester at university we worked on a Java project and couldn't get our netbeans project to work.

We spent hours on hours to finally find out my fellow student mixed up java.lang with lava.

We added a slide in our presentation for that issue to hide the pain.

"This MONDAY, you can have a day to yourself." (as the university is hosting something all day long)

> Finally can start this. Yayy!
(THE Gang of Four)

Fifty little bugs jumping in the code,
One tracked down and dev started to code,
Developer called the compiler,
And the compiler said
Hundred more bugs (& errors) found in the code

Once again, we delivered our semester project and this time, we added working concurrency to an existing functional language compiler, which is pretty cool. But I'd probably be more happy if I had been developing more on the compiler than once again being stuck writing the fucking paper because none would be arsed to write it otherwise...

FUUUUUUUUCK!!! Even the compiler has given up on this codebase! And it's still 2PM..............ON A MOTHERFUCKING MONDAY

Pair programming a major refactoring, colleague tries to change _everything_ simultaneously. Spent hours fixing compiler errors, now it's not linking. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A HTML Tree Compiler?

How life smirks when I look so happy.
Devrant sure is an interesting place.

So, you have some coffee, make up your mind, and sit down to begin the project you need to submit the next day.

You fire up the machine and bam! Windows takes it's April update - "Do not turn off your PC", and a fucking rotation of evil dots on the screen for eternity.

And it goes on and on, on and on, till you have lost all mood for work.

Setting up a Haskell environment on Windows is fucking AIDS. Guess I'll screw it and just use ANTLR for my compiler.

When your compiler is too smart and inlines and unrolls the function call with its own implementation on a preemptable kernel code a simple memcpy call can be used to destroy the system :D

To instantly know *exactly* what caused a compiler or runtime error and *exactly* how to fix it in the best possible way, every single time.

Sooooo the computers at my university

printf("%f", 0.5);
Prints the biggest number a double can have, just... WHY!

Is it wrong that I feel a genuine sense of accomplishment for having once written code so bad it caused an access violation in the compiler?

Create a bug-free compiler for a Lang like c# but a little less overcomplicated and a lot faster. I don't believe a strictly typed and garbage collected language needs to be much less than half as fast as c++.

Suddenly came accross this in --help

XD

Simple ANTLR project for compiler class accepted .

Easy money
(btw I had no idea about what antlr was , so i googled everything :D)

I still don't know how I feel about programming tests here in my university being on paper. Literally, we code on paper and that's it. Teacher corrects it like a compiler.

Working with Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp
where I work with CSharpSyntaxTree

I can compile the code in code.

So basically,

SyntaxTree syntaxTree = CSharpSyntaxTree.ParseText(@"
using System;

namespace InAppCompiler
{
public class Writer
{
public void PrintText(string message)
{
Console.WriteLine(message);
}

public void ALLCAPS(string msg)
{
Console.WriteLine(msg);
}
}
}");

Freaking cool!

When your code compiles successfully with no warnings or errors. 😀

Well it's nothing I wrote myself but I don't know why it exists.

I currently work on a reasonably big LaTeX (markup/typesetting) project.
For what ever reason someone had the glorious idea to build a Compiler in Java to compile the LaTeX sources to PDF, so far so good.
The problem is that
1. Most people working on that project either use an editor with its own compiling functionality or
2. use the shell script in the same fucking directory

Of course the Compiler is also slower than both of the above and tends to crash.

Well at least it's not my time which went into there.

Anyone able to link me to some good reading material on compilers, interpreters, emulation and CPU design?

Keen to actually get some of this knowledge under my belt, don't mind if it requires a little investment as long as it isn't written in (fucking) python, preferably C if anyone knows of anything.

Thanks guys! :-D

My weirdest dream about programming?

I was sitting with my buddy and we were programming, and literally, verbally arguing with compiler that he should compile, and he was spewing out different errors each time we compiled, and it somehow matched our arguments, so it literally was "replying" with different kind of errors ;-;

I mean, we didnt change code, but tell to compiler "no, no, no, you dont understand. This error is wrong, becouse here and there is this and that and it just should work" **pressed compile again and gets different errror**

Yes, that was after few nights of c++.

Edit:
yes, in that dream compiler was spewing out bullshit errors that didnt made sense.

In the lab:
"Look! I have compiled and that gave me no errors! On the first try!"
So I look closer and
"Dude, ehm.., you are compiling the wrong file..."
Then he tries to compile the right class and the compiler returned errors on errors
"You know what? I hate you."
Never laughed that loud

My idiotic teacher doesn't know the difference between Java and JavaScript , asked us to use a old version of Code::Blocks(some c/c++ IDE) just because she thinks that a update would modify compiler in such a way that basic code would never give the same output , she blames the compiler just because she isn't capable to see her mistakes and gives me bad grades just because she walked through college and I didn't.

I am a single-pass compiler.
Why?
Well, when I have to do the food shopping for the week, I have a look at the buying list, keep the things in mind, go through the shop exactly once and everytime I see a match with the list, I put it into the shopping trolley.
Efficient and quick.
Soo, on the other hand, my girlfriend is a multi-pass compiler.
What that mean, you ask?
Well, she doesn't have any look at the buying list until she is in the shop. Then, she runs through the whole building until she finally finds the first thing on the list... and repeats with the next one until there's no entry left.
She needs three times longer than me for this, is totally exhausted after it, and, not forgetting, then SHE is angry about ME, because I wanted to have these "special" sweets she had too run through the shop twice for because she couldn't find it at first try.

Developing a compiler is the only thing in programming that is as difficult as building an Operating System.

Lets go compiler building.

The power to have a compiler that instantly turns one language code to another language code!

At a "guided internship".

Task: Develop a complete web application form

Was assigned to a team of 7 where all are "Frontend Developers" who have never heard terms like "bootstrap" or "mobile-first web pages".
That aside, all are seniors in age and qualifications, hence me telling them something to do is "ordering them around". And if I tell them to leave things to me, they be like "No, we wanna contribute and do the Frontend, as these things don't matter, inline css just works fine". 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Why Lord? Just why?

Sometimes I feel.... my compiler judges me.

Who the f*** add file paths like that????

There's plenty of literature about how to emulate classes and interfaces flawlessly in JS even without es6, but no, let's make a separate language using 20 extra keywords and several unnecessary concepts called TypeScript with its own compiler.

Sometimes I believe the compiler ignores all my comments

I added a method to an interface. Was to lazy to find all use cases so I just hit Run and waited for the compiler to throw all places where the method is missing. #effectiveJava

compiler, y u do dis? T^T

some ppl seem to take too much pride in making everything configurable, tbh sometimes it just seems they're too lazy to make a decision

why not just ship the compiler with an empty text file and let the user "configure" the system it with code :/

Compilers should just work for raw C with only static memory allocation. This isn't the bad old days where a couple of dudes wrote a short book explaining how C might probably should possibly work. I hear supposedly we have standards now.

Well, last week I lost 2 days to our compiler randomly forgetting that it wasn't okay to put a globally allocated uint32 at an address ending in 9. What? It had been handling this case without issue for more a year, but now after changing completely unrelated code we have this problem.

I'm not sure how to even deal with this idiocy so no doubt I'll continue working on it this week, too.

Thanks a lot, GCC.

When you're working with an unfamiliar codebase where there are tons and tons of compiler warnings to start with... So of course your latest build-breaking mistakes are completely buried.

I’m on a laravel project which is going great, the ass rapping part of it is compiling this fucking sass with laravel fucking mix... fuck it I’m setting up gulp

No matter what you do the universe just tries to beat and let you down, you just have to let go and trust your wit!

Hello.
I am a student of Computer Science Engineering (Bachelor of Technology). I am 3 years into this 4-year course. I am strong in Data structures and Algorithms, and passionate to add more stuff to this list.

I am really done with this University coursework, and want to explore more (specifically, want to do something that is practical, and matters). I, obviously cannot leave the Uni, but I want to make my time at home more productive. Not just to me, but everyone.

But:
1. I don't know where to start.
2. I teach myself everything, and hence, there is much difference between what I know and what people need, and I'm kind of scared of ruining/wasting other's time.

If there is someone out here who has the time out of his/her busy schedule to guide and set me on a path, please do help me. It's getting weird in my head.

Languages I know: C(took a 1-year course), Python, JavaScript [learning JAVA], Oracle, Visual Basic

Things I have done before:
* Developed a fullstack website for Indian Railways (going live in May 2019) [used Python for back end]

I have a sincere need from within to do this, and I am going to learn whatever more I need to, in order to fulfill your requirements. Please just show me WHAT and from WHERE.

Kindly do get back.

I saw multiple attempts to convert an int to a String by concatenating it with an empty String...
String s = someInt +"";

(I'm guessing the compiler uses a StringBuilder here which still ends up calling Integer.toString())

In my defense, the compiler throws warnings on guard clauses
