  2. Year 2038 problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem

    Starting with Visual C++ 2005, the CRT uses a 64-bit time_t unless the _USE_32BIT_TIME_T preprocessor macro is defined. [36] However, the Windows API itself is unaffected by the year 2038 bug, as Windows internally tracks time as the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since 1 January 1601 in a 64-bit signed integer, which will not overflow ...

  3. Stack buffer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_buffer_overflow

    Stack buffer overflow is a type of the more general programming malfunction known as buffer overflow (or buffer overrun). [1] Overfilling a buffer on the stack is more likely to derail program execution than overfilling a buffer on the heap because the stack contains the return addresses for all active function calls.

  4. Futures and promises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futures_and_promises

    The terms future, promise, delay, and deferred are often used interchangeably, although some differences in usage between future and promise are treated below. Specifically, when usage is distinguished, a future is a read-only placeholder view of a variable, while a promise is a writable, single assignment container which sets the value of the ...

  5. Buffer overflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffer_overflow

    Visualization of a software buffer overflow. Data is written into A, but is too large to fit within A, so it overflows into B.. In programming and information security, a buffer overflow or buffer overrun is an anomaly whereby a program writes data to a buffer beyond the buffer's allocated memory, overwriting adjacent memory locations.

  6. Time formatting and storage bugs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_formatting_and...

    The Network Time Protocol has an overflow issue related to the Year 2038 problem, which manifests itself at 06:28:16 UTC on 7 February 2036, rather than 2038. The 64-bit timestamps used by NTP consist of a 32-bit part for seconds and a 32-bit part for fractional second, giving NTP a time scale that rolls over every 2 32 seconds (136 years) and ...

  7. Just-in-time compilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just-in-time_compilation

    JIT causes a slight to noticeable delay in the initial execution of an application, due to the time taken to load and compile the input code. Sometimes this delay is called "startup time delay" or "warm-up time". In general, the more optimization JIT performs, the better the code it will generate, but the initial delay will also increase.

  8. Lazy evaluation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_evaluation

    The Lazy interface with its eval() method is equivalent to the Supplier interface with its get() method in the java.util.function library. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] : 200 Each class that implements the Lazy interface must provide an eval method, and instances of the class may carry whatever values the method needs to accomplish lazy evaluation.

  9. NOP (code) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NOP_(code)

    Use the ; empty statement [14] or the {} empty block statement the same way as in the C and derivatives examples; Use the undefined or the null expression as a complete statement (an expression statement) when the previous methods are not allowed by the syntax. Alternatives, in situations where a function is required, are:
