helloycombinat··on Linus Torvalds' good taste argument for linked lists, explained
I don't think it's the comment.

Usually variable names in a loop is the object being manipulated not the address of that pointer which means p isn't a pointer to the object which makes it completely confusing.

If the article used pp which is the typical way you describe a pointer to pointer it'd help

If NES didn't have locks it would have went the way of atari (99% of games being utter crap with 0 quality control)

What's wrong with zip? It's fine. Maybe more than fine if it managed to be this popular for so many applications. From my understanding it's very good on floppy disk too

You clearly missed his point
helloycombinat··on Open Letter from Facebook Content Moderators
I never had facebook on my phone and I dropped whatapp for signal. IG is the last piece I need to get rid of besides those apps I don't care about with the "sign in with facebook" crap.

I'm trying to quit IG so my next phone will be fb free but does anyone have any recommendations on how to make dropping IG easier? So far I made a group with friends so we can spam pics but it's not the same (probably cause not enough of us is spamming it)

Does anyone know of a IG replacement?
