For some reason an old C pointer article I wrote gets a lot of hits. The problem with this article is that it doesn’t actually help people understand what a pointer is. Guess its time to dig forth some old knowledge: How to create/initialize/declare a pointer: Before we dive into the code itself its vital […]

Lately there has been quite the fuss surrounding the topic “privacy” on the internet due to the NSA scandal and services like facebook which wants more and more information about their users. Due to the press jumping all over this a few of my friends has come to me asking how they can retain their […]

As visible on the image under this paragraph I have implemented a simple “first screen”. Gives the user a simple choice […]
