How about just posting a link (as I've asked 3 times now) to where you advocate "switching to --i instead of ++i"?
I am quite aware of what "goes on inside a CPU" and have actually done several CPU designs. Although I think you need to drop the "Buster" since you are just trolling us.
Perhaps you should try reading and understanding prior to attacking. I never "argued" with you about --i and ++i.
Yes you did, I even highlighted it:
Most well written, non-student compilers will handle cases like that and there will be no different between things like ++i and i++ and the code generated except perhaps in a class that obfuscates the operation in some extremely obscure way.
Well technically you posted ++i and i++, but this whole time I've been talking about ++i and --i, that was what you were responding to, and you stated that compilers can handle everything, they can't, and that's entry level knowledge.
And regarding your "talentless coders talking about credentials" you again seem to have a huge chip on your shoulder. I spoke about my experience - when people come in and start insulting, attacking, denigrating with a lot of hand-waving and a big chip on their shoulder and no specifics, they are ignored (or not hired) in my experience at big (22000 plus people) and small organizations (3+). And rightly so. I think everyone would appreciate specifics instead of baseless, groundless, inaccurate attacks.
Here is a tip, if you don't want to be mocked, next time don't start an argument with:
"As someone who has 30 years of experience plus a BS in CS and CE, and an MS in CS (from top 10 US CS/CE programs)"
You walked in here knowing you had no idea wtf was going on inside a CPU, thrown out a bunch of titles, made a bunch of false claims while making demands, and you want to talk about etiquette?
Your code sucks, everyone else is doing better, I shown you the proof, I pointed you to the right direction, take it or leave it.
You're a nothing burger with 50 stickers on it and I simply don't give a shit what you think.
