Your kid comes back from his first semester of CS101. First it was Python, you let that slide. Then came Go. "At least it compiles" you told yourself. But now... C++?

Your own flesh and blood, wearing that shirt under your roof. This is what happens when you let the universities get to them.

if the net result of an earthquake destroying TSMC/Taiwan is that every LLM gets repurposed towards rewriting Java, C#, Python and Javascript into C++ or Rust ASAP, that'd be pretty cool

I may be misreading your requirements but the big thing I'd change here is using zip so you can create a staggered list of dates

I've been getting random segfaults doing things I know should work. according to dmesg, they were all happening on a single core

maybe that one core is broken? I turned it off with:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/online

and it shows as offline in htop and now everything is fine(!)
