Tiny C runtime Linux (rt0), HelloWorld 0.6k (i386), sbrk example added

In plain words

Tiny C runtime is a minimal C runtime environment designed for Linux on i386 and x86_64 architectures. It is aimed at developers who need lightweight runtime support for C programs on these platforms. The project is notable for its extremely small footprint, with a HelloWorld example weighing just 0.6 kilobytes, and includes practical examples like sbrk implementation for developers building low-level applications or exploring systems programming.

  TinyClock – a tiny true 5-arch universal Mac OS X single-binary GUI app2022 · tycho.sytes.net · ▲192

  1. Single universal binary, that can be natively executed on every hardware platform Mac OS X was made for (32/64 bit, PowerPC/x86/AppleSilicon). 2. Minimalistic gadget-style design. If launched as a tool, there is no menubar, no dock icon, no nothing, just the clock window. 3. Support for hidpi and dark mode for environments, that have them. 4. Window title bar for moving the window with a mouse, and a handle to resize it (latter for OS versions, that have it). 5. Can be easily ported to GNUStep and thus other OSes (sources under GPLv3). 6. Simple Makefile build system.

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
