we need a different word for "what" as in "i didn't hear you" and what as in "i heard you perfectly, but i have no idea what you meant"

C++ is a lot like JS
i avoid using it whenever i can, but when i have to use it i think "it cant be *that* bad, surely people are just hating bc of the memes"
then i am promptly mauled to death with a sledgehammer

that's the point of embedding it in the binary, but you could also do stenography on top of that. decompilation will reveal it either way.

how to make an urban legend in your game, in the internet age
make a rare event that happens in hidden area, like 1% of the time, but every month the game is out, the chance of it happening drops by 0.1%.
the event also doesn't happen if it detects any common streaming software, like OBS.
also, all the assets for the event would be embedded into the binary, so dataminers would have to decompile it to confirm its existence.
oh, and in a switch port, it would disable video snapshots while the event is active

it's fucked up that "quote that links to the page it's from" isn't a standard part of html. it was literally part of the original idea that inspired html. back in 1980. and we still don't have it.

most trivial line-based formats line csv are actually decently self-syncronizing, so if the file corrupts, you'll only usually lose a few rows. most binary formats make heavy use of lengths and offsets, making them much more brittle.
usually this doesn't come up much.. unless it's something you only go looking for once things have gone wrong, like logfiles.
