There are many C interpreters.
I'm aware of PicoC, Cling (nee CINT), and Ch (commercial), but that's only three. What others are there? I'm curious about canonical C interpreters as well as things that aren't quite interpreting C but are somehow related.
C script supported : just add '#!/usr/local/bin/tcc -run' at the first line of your C source, and execute it directly from the command line.

why do you say this ? https://techcrunch.com/2010/12/16/world-lens-translates-word... World lens has been around since 2010 Layar since 2009 https://techcrunch.com/2009/08/17/layar-proves-the-augmented...

ARKit what these guys are talking about isn't even that. Its just holding up your phone. This functionality has been around forever. From Worldlens, to Yelp to the Ikea app. I don't know why all of the sudden its considered "Around the corner"
Ubiquity and accessibility. Sure, giant corporations like Ikea and Yelp made AR apps, now every iOS developer can too and there'll be buckets of documentation and tutorials to help them along the way.
There are rumors of phones with batteries lasting longer than 5hrs. I'm still not sure if true or not but when it happens it will revolutionize what you use your phone for. It may even replace the watch completely some day. Obviously I insist they still need to be as thin as they are now. That is much much more important than batteries.

So, fast refresh e-paper displays?
I'd like a very large, performant-enough display for solely for editing in vi. Even that is still just a dream, as far as I can tell.

That it's fairly close to assembly for a high level language, and most C that has ever been written has been compiled.
Okay, but it still seems strange to claim compiled-ness as some sort of intrinsic property of a language .
Edge computing. Basically shifting off of cloud onto separate peer-to-peer connections. Faster, more secure, more distributed, and no middleman. Think 1990s/mid 2000s but no servers, just client to client. Soon everyone will want a home server.
How would we implement a search-engine using P2P?
Fusion, of course. It actually is right around the corner now, this time.

> Do people really want to run around wearing glasses/headsets all the time? Absolutely! If I could wear some regular looking glasses that could identify objects, give me directions, etc, I would totally wear them. I'm really good with faces, in that I can see someone after a long time and know that I know them, but I'm really bad with names, so I can never remember their name. If I could have glasses that looked in…
If the glasses can name people from your contacts, it's only one more step to name and recognize everyone it can including strangers, including showing any related info like reddit aliases (known and suspected), reputation in some reputation tracker or even criminal history, favorite alcoholic beverages and other interests to help with dating... enough people don't want that so they'll ban AR devices and punch out pe…
