  • I misremembered the whole thing. It was still related to cleaning up after a failure, but there was only one resource I had to deal with. That’s how it looks like:

        sqlite3 *db;
        int r;
    
        r = sqlite3_open("./data.db", &db);
        if (r) {
            std::cerr << "Can't open the database: " << sqlite3_errmsg(db) << std::endl;
            return r;
        }
    
        r = sqlite3_exec(db, "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS foo(...);", nullptr, nullptr, nullptr);
        if (r != SQLITE_OK) {
            std::cerr << "Can't create a table called foo: " << sqlite3_errmsg(db) << std::endl;
            goto out;
        }
    
        // a few more sqlite3_exec calls;
        // some sqlite3_prepare_v2 calls combined with sqlite3_bind_* and sqlite3_step calls
        // for repeated queries.
    
    out:
        sqlite3_close(db);
        return r;
    







  • First time I’m hearing of the CQS. Wow, just wow. Dystopian shit.

    New account experience on Reddit in 2025:

    • Create an account;
    • Post something on a subreddit that has AutoMod configured to instantly remove posts/comments from new accounts, accounts with low karma or accounts with low CQS;
    • Get a site-wide shadowban because your first contribution was removed;
    • If you’re unaware of shadowbans, keep using the site, leaving comments, thinking nobody replies to you because you’re not that interesting;
    • If you’re aware of them, keep trying to appeal with zero effect.

    Fuck Steve Huffman and fuck his enshittified site.
