I program C for fun, C# for cash, and C++ never
One of the things I have learned about largely self teaching C is that a lot of resources seem to be stuck with ANSI C, when C23 is so much easier to read and write. There's no need to be as terse as many C developers conventionally are.

Now that I've finished with regex, I can turn my attention back to the HTTP server I've been implementing based off the RFC documents. It's wonderful how simple and complex HTTP is at the same time.

Implemented an NFA regex algorithm in C based off Russ Cox's "Regular Expression Matching Can Be Simple And Fast", really enjoyed exploring how regex works and now have a base that I can build on in future projects

I thought setting up this account with domain name attached would be a bit of fun, but when you manage your own entire server stack it turns out to be a lot of work.

It's complete slop, but also very useful to have some AI garbage generated for your display picture etc.
