@foone Shock on error, vibration on warning.

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@griibor lewd! I'll sexualize a lot, but I try to keep it away from my CI job

@foone did you just? Invent a contraption so C is no longer used?

If so: Bravo!

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@ppxl it'd either get people to stop writing C, or it'd get them to write better C.

Seems like we win either way.

@foone That's... not all that difficult to do.

Just wrap GCC in a shell script that faithfully copies all of the inputs and outputs to and from the real executable, except that whenever the compiler exits with a non-zero status, it triggers the shock collar.

@foone I'd be shocked if that worked

@foone I can only support this if it's also going to give you very clear errors on failure.

I've spent too much time already pounding my head against cryptic messages that some vendor never thought a human would read to be willing to accept punishment when they screw me again.

@gooba42 panic("Splunge!"); was more useful than some other error messages I've run into.

Earlier today I had something that kept spitting "Access violation" over and over like a fountain. No details, not even any description of what function was throwing it.

On an unrelated note I want a big heavy leather collar that actually does serve as a grounding strap as suggested in that old story

@gooba42 if you haven't seen said story, here it is, it's glorious.

@vxo @gooba42 nice

@foone for some reason I read gcc as sgdq and that would definitely enhance the experience

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@realtime that's one way to try and get the record!

@foone oh it certainly won't improve the runners' performance. maybe as a donation incentive

@foone -Wall but it's literally a wall and some guns pointed at you

@foone that will just result in failing every compilation

foone OP , vor einem Monat

and you might say "foone this is just a masochism kink", but no!

I'm a python programmer. I don't compile my code. I just want C/C++ programmers to suffer. This is clearly a Sadism kink, keep up.

@foone I mean they’re using C/C++, surely that’s already punishment enough?

JLab8 , vor einem Monat

@foone I want a compiler for python. Shouldn't have to execute code to know it's invalid. >:(

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@JLab8 you can use pyflakes for that. It does a syntax check without executing anything

JLab8 , vor einem Monat

@foone but what if I want the code to still be valid when some new version of python is released?
(Not seeking serious responses.)

TheColourOfFear , vor einem Monat

@foone I thought python compiled into .pyc files when it was imported the first time by the interpreter?

foone OP , vor einem Monat

@TheColourOfFear it usually does, but only as an optimization for if it has to import that module again. It doesn't do it for the main program, and it can be turned off with no side effects other than it eunningly a little slower
