[0:09][Recap and set the stage for the day]
[1:49][Run the game to demo the bug with the looped live code editing, and begin investigating it]
[5:48][win32_handmade.cpp: Walk through how PLATFORM_ALLOCATE_MEMORY(), PLATFORM_DEALLOCATE_MEMORY() and Win32FreeMemoryBlock() work]
[11:35][Step in to Win32FreeMemoryBlock() to gauge the rarity of this bug]
[15:34][win32_handmade.cpp: Introduce Win32VerifyMemoryListIntegrity()]
[19:11][win32_handmade.cpp: Make PLATFORM_ALLOCATE_MEMORY() call Win32VerifyMemoryListIntegrity() at the end and start, run and hit the one at the start]
[24:59][win32_handmade.cpp: Make Win32VerifyMemoryListIntegrity() increment a FailCounter, :run the game and locate the failure case]
[28:40][Step in to Win32VerifyMemoryListIntegrity() and identify who is getting written and when]
[30:35][Set a data breakpoint on the Size, run the game and see who touched that memory location]
[35:58][Look at where we set PushBufferBase, fix up RenderCommandsStruct() and correctly initialise the PushBuffer]
[38:01][Run the game and find that the bug is dead]
[38:46][win32_handmade.cpp: Remove the calls to Win32VerifyMemoryListIntegrity(), run the game and see that we're still okay]
[40:16][win32_handmade.cpp: Introduce Win32GetMemoryStats() in order to initialise arenas with debug information]
[43:43][handmade_platform.h: Introduce DEBUG_PLATFORM_GET_MEMORY_STATS()]
[46:26][handmade_debug.cpp: Enable DEBUGEnd() to print the memory stats]
[49:28][handmade_shared.h: Enable FormatStringList() to handle the l case]
[51:12][Run the game and consult the profiler]

[53:29][@thesizik][long is >= 32 bits, long long is >= 64 bits]
[55:00][@pseudonym73][Windows is LLP64, everything else is LP64. The only difference between the two is the size of long. Everything else (short, int, long long) is the same]

[59:49][@Miblo][We'll have "category tagging" in the new annotation system]
[1:00:55][@doritosranger][Would Handmade Hero get a version for Linux or is it strictly a windows project? If it's true, why not using Linux in work? Is it personal choice or is it harder to debug something on windows?]
[1:04:14][@dudeinbasement1][Winners don't use drugs message needs to be added in the game's loading screen]
[1:04:30][@zilarrezko][Seems like the questions aren't polling in... Do you usually put your rendering / updating / input processing in the same function like you have been doing?]
[1:05:12][@edvinholm][Is the bending of the hero's body going to be like it is now? Looks a bit weird]
[1:05:43][@samnchiet][On moving from Windows to Linux, how much of the onus of making this change lies on the consumers vs Linux OS "designers"? Linux distros aren't normally ordinary-user friendly]
[1:06:31][@doritosranger][What do you think about free software (Stallman, FSF, GPL)?]
[1:13:08][Close it up][:speech]

Cinera 0.7.0 Update Add output parameter to all of hero/code, hero/intro-to-c and hero/misc, preserving the current URLs while allowing different .hmml filenames, notably for hero/misc which now gets sorted chronologically.

Relocate riscy and add newly converted hero The idea here is to reduce the amount of superfluous stuff downloaded to each server running cinera 2017-12-06 22:26:13 +00:00			`[0:09][Recap and set the stage for the day]`

Fix some incorrectly converted annotations Also apply some :speech categorisation 2018-03-07 21:48:09 +00:00			`[52:39][Q&A][:speech]`
