Thanks, I just made a trip back to my teen-age with A-Ha.

I'm quarantined and now would be a perfect time for me to submit some articles, but I've been pretty uninspired with coding lately so I've only managed a few tips and tricks.
I think it's because I was burning the candle at both ends during my last coding jag.
Also because I jumped the parsing shark. I really can't improve on GLR parsing. It's already as good parsing as it gets.
I'd like to cover some of the useful but dusty corners of the .NET BCL/"SDK" (core/std) and I have with some IPC and singleton stuff, but I'm just not finding anything fun that is not obsolete - probably somewhat due to the fact that I took a sabbatical from C# coding between .NET 3.5, and like .NET 4.71 so it has been years.
Now that I'm not creating parser generators and regex engines I don't really know what to do with myself.
I'd also like to create some more code generators but it looks like most of the stuff outside of parsing that you'd really want to do codegen for has already been handled by other major tools
Meh.

Perhaps you can answer the question, "What is the fastest way to parse a language/syntax into an execuatable?" I believe I know the answer, but I'm curious what your intellect has for a solution.

|
Do you mean compile one?
And what do you mean by fastest? The fastest to compile? Assembly.

Come up with a method that parses and compiles faster than your previous techniques.

I suppose I could optimize or rewrite the CodeDOM Go! Kit - it's got a parser and something like a compiler in it.
The parser is already hand tuned, but the compilation can take awhile.

I once created what I will call an 'Object Oriented Parser/Compiler' that didn't use tables, and I believe it had the flexibility to handle any grammar you wanted (because the parser/compiler had to be hand generated for each grammar). Because of the object nature of the result, spitting out assembly at the end would not have been too difficult. I never finished it because other projects were more important. I suspect it would be the fastest approach possible to parsing/compiling, but I never developed it far enough, nor do I have near the expertise to be able to say so with certainty.

Coding is overrated, and should NEVER be top priority in your life, IMHO.
Enjoy your burnout phase. It will be temporary, but will give you some short lived respite which I am sure will be good for your soul.

And adapting whatever you have to .Net Core or .Net 5?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Most of the stuff should already work with it. The only things I don't code to .NET Standard 2.0 are things that are windows specific.

I hear ya Sista.
I had the recent pleasure of writing a transfer filter to copy the days sales from my little shop to the parent companies QBO system. With their adorable API.
Then when my wife was caught red handed hand entering sales from woo commerce to the same company's qbo and wrote a filter for that. The WooCommerce API makes so much more sense.
Then, my dear wife bought two of those tuya smart sockets which are foreign to the installed (hand rolled) home automation system so I hacked them into the litter.
As of today, I'm done with nothing else to do. After 3 months of hobby coding and learning new technologies and languages by default, entertaining myself at home while the rest of the extroverted world goes bat Sh#t. Now it's my turn. Thankfully, tomorrow we all get let off the leash and so yeah. Back to "normal".
But I do love coding. Especially when my successes and failures aren't directly tied to my income.

Seem to remember that members who met a certain criteria (ie regulars) were given the trust to post pic uploads somewhere on here(f*** knows why as us lot are probably more likely to post depraved stuff)
Can someone point me to where/how please.
Disclaimer: pictures won’t be depraved, sorry. But they will accompany a great story that happened to me last weekend that includes intruders in my house and a gruesome murder with an unlikely object. An air freshener can. Pretty sure that wasn’t in cluedo(clue).
