This article details how Clojure, with the JVM's Vector API and careful optimization, achieved frame rates within 20% of C for a 3D stress test, demonstrating that a dynamic language can approach low-level performance on hot loops.

A developer shares their experience porting a C game to WebAssembly, detailing bugs encountered due to 32-bit vs 64-bit differences and offering debugging tips.

A developer created a fully procedural first-person shooter homage to .kkrieger in a single C file, producing a 51KB binary that synthesizes all assets at runtime, and verified it using headless screenshots.

Fil-C 0.679 is a new release of a fanatically compatible memory-safe implementation of C and C++ that uses concurrent garbage collection and invisible capabilities to prevent all memory safety errors without escape hatches.

zalloc replaces malloc, calloc, realloc, and free in C modules with Zig allocators, enabling Zig-style memory management in C code.

Shares a cheat sheet for Linux socket programming in C, a developer resource for network programming.

A tweet highlights James Molloy's 2008 free tutorial 'Roll Your Own Toy UNIX Clone OS', which teaches building a Unix-like kernel from scratch in C and assembly, covering bootloader, memory management, filesystems, and multitasking.

Patched iozone to compile on Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 26, ensuring disk benchmarking works without errors; the fix was incorporated into version 510.

This article discusses the practical challenges of writing portable C code due to reliance on non-standard compiler extensions and glibc's conditional headers, illustrating with examples from building a C compiler.

sp.h is a 15,000-line single-header C99 standard library that bypasses libc to provide portable, explicit, and heap-free primitives. It aims to replace the traditional libc with a modern, syscall-level abstraction.

An experienced C++ developer argues that all non-trivial C and C++ code contains undefined behavior, making memory safety impossible and calling into question the continued use of these languages in modern software development.
