Leading large language models unanimously—and incorrectly—assert that C++ std::vector destructs elements in LIFO order. A simple code demonstration proves destruction occurs FIFO, exposing persistent gaps in LLMs' understanding of fundamental C++ behavior.

A provocative critique of Robert C. Martin's SOLID principles argues that only Liskov Substitution holds merit, while others promote unnecessary complexity. The analysis examines historical context and modern development realities to advocate for simplicity and depth over rigid rules.

Dolphin’s latest release delivers a suite of latency‑reducing options, brings RetroAchievements to Android, and corrects long‑standing SD‑card and microphone bugs. The update also expands BBA support, improves on‑screen display, and fixes audio glitches in classic titles. These changes make the emulator more responsive, playable, and ready for modern hardware.

The UIQ2 benchmark, devised by Matt Mahoney, pushes generic compression engines to their limits by feeding them millions of random Turing‑machine outputs. With a rigorously cryptographic generator and a carefully calibrated test harness, the benchmark exposes the true compression potential of algorithms that must learn from scratch. The results—ranging from 0.875 to 1.02 compression ratios against a ppmonstr baseline—highlight the subtle trade‑offs between context mixing, BWT, and LZ variants, and underscore the importance of statistical model selection in universal compression.

Discover how Bogren Digital transformed their JUCE UI workflow from manual positioning hell to an automated pipeline leveraging Photoshop metadata and dynamic loading. Their open-source solution eliminates magic numbers while enabling pixel-perfect hitboxes and consistent z-ordering across complex audio plugins.

Crunch introduces a novel message definition protocol that integrates validation as a core component, ensuring correctness by default in serialized communications. Designed for embedded and resource-constrained environments, it offers flexible serialization formats and eliminates dynamic memory dependencies. This approach addresses critical flaws in existing frameworks like protobuf, prioritizing security and reliability.
