<fijal> mattip: do you feel like helping me with installing VS? I'm kinda at loss
<mattip> sure
<fijal> I'll send you a screenshot on whatsapp
<fijal> (or a photo *cough*)
<mattip> vs2015 is no longer supported, and neither is 2017. Can you use 2019?
<fijal> allegedly no
<mattip> you may have to download a newer installer? https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/older-downloads/
<fijal> I kinda tried
<fijal> which ones of those?
<fijal> there is a lot of options
<fijal> mattip: I'm trying to get unreal engine 4.18 to work and it seems to require 2015
<mattip> according to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77q0II2BiE8 you can use visual studio code, or even visual studo 2017 as an editor
<fijal> it crashes with an error that needs this
<fijal> there is also some usage of templates that does not work on 2017
<fijal> (in this particular project)
<mattip> hmm. So there are two installers for visual studio 2015 in the first link, "Visual Studio Community 2015 with Update 3" or "Visual Studio 2015 Update 3"
<fijal> I tried both
<fijal> explodes with same errors
<mattip> ok, I will try one of them
<fijal> the 600m and 6G ones
<mattip> gahh, I don't have enough disk space to try this out
<mattip> let me find another machine

<kurisu> Can @ffi.def_extern() be used on methods somehow? If not, how best to pass methods as callbacks to C?

<cfbolz> did some wikipedia CS history hunting today, I managed to get a picture of this amazing early italian CS prof into wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrado_B%C3%B6hm
<cfbolz> he described the very meta-circular compiler in his '54 phd thesis, english translation here: http://www.itu.dk/people/sestoft/boehmthesis/
<Corbin> Related: https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.02243 "Gems of Corrado Böhm"
<cfbolz> Nice
