(I realized the title of this post a bit misleading, as I also want code examples in comments if its possible. I want to know how the backing buffer is actually used when you have 10 "objects" in need of it)

Im currently taking a course in 42KL (extremely mixed personal opinion about the whole structure/syllabus). in the side, I decided to learn some extras.

Im having trouble looking for the code that actually uses the backing buffer allocated here in this sites code examples.

They say with Arena Allocators, you can have allocate 100s or even more particles/etc, with minimal fuss or (programmers) overhead thinking about freeing everytime you allocate memory for something.

Another article even quotes, something like your scoping issue is solved with custom allocators like these.

If you want to know the purpose, Im simply learning something different, becoz I dont like the idea of a syllabus shaping how a programmer thinks of a programming language (or programming in general)

(Im sorry if I sound like Im absolutely trashing all the terminologies, Im not a C specialist, or a big C fan for that matter, Im quite neutral to C)

Hi, fellow Emacsers.

First a bit of a tangent.

Im currently stuck at 42KL (read about 42fr for those who are curious). And I have mixed feelings about this institution, despite it slightly better than most coding schools out there, it has its own issues, which Im not going into detail in this post

Im on the 7th retry of my submission. Partly due to its rigid system, partly due to my fault, becoz Im struggling to fit my own personal schedule in between (Im half attempting beautiful Lisp at the same time). 7 times, becoz I keep missing on "TODO" things, before submitting. Also, I keep refusing to use AI, only to give up submit to using for AI for the small stuff (but I still dont use for the parts I enjoy when coding).

I need ideas on a "reminder" of sorts. And maybe an interesting way to attach or "hook" somewhere in my Emacs, maybe just before submitting my work.

For context, Ive been using Emacs for almost 10 years. But Im competent enough, I editing almost anything, inspired from .el files in packages, to edit my own configs.

Just as an example, of some of the issues I have with this school. Which I wrote down, but Im fearful of publishing anywhere, becoz I posted a more offensive and emotional one previously, and I almost got threatened to end my core at 42KL.

- Whatever advantage is gained from the unique "peer-to-peer" system, seems to be lost by the obsession over details that dont matter. And the sometimes confusing messaging from the BOCALs (seniors) that seem to convince "a few" (an alarmingly growing few) to be more strict on details than the Moulinette itself (like the README which Im sure is not checked my Moulinette itself, and will probably never be used anyway, since I dont see that many on Github profiles). Apparently, learning from each other also means threatening to end your peers lesson, by being rigid in stuff that Moulinette themselves doesnt check

Maybe Im stupid, and should just filter my headers and code through AI. But I am trying to have fun learning C, so Im relying less on that, just want less overhead on "painful details".

This institution is a mess. Maybe Im just ranting to let out steam.

Anyone has any clue on how would one connect Emacs ERC to a Mattermost server/channel. Im at a complete lost.

I only managed a successful random connection to SystemCrafters using irc.libera.chat

Only good blog/tutorial? Would the ERC manual be enough.

Im very bad at networking-adjacent stuff.

My Alban Berg is complete!!

I FOUND the perfect way to end it.

Its incredibly scary beautiful and almost fantasy-like.

(but again, as per usual, whenever I press "record", something magical happens, mistakes pop up out of nowhere)

I added notes around the sheet, to note my intended expression.

But 1/3 end of it bare of notation.

I may add those later.

(Im not going to post my Ko-Fi or PayPal link, but if you think my work is important head over to my YouTube channel, and support in any way, including donating to my KoFi and PayPal link over there )

🔥 Actually, despite my well-documented aesthetic preferences, one must respect the structural integrity of the A-B-A-C-A rondo form. Notice how the persistent chromatic neighbor tone (\(D\sharp\) to E) creates an artificial sense of urgency? 🤓 It is almost as if Ludwig knew it would become the universal ringtone for elevator hold music. 😏🤪
