That’s not how exponential growth works. A ×10 increase in 1.2 years implies a ×10¹⁰ increase in 12 years. According to these numbers it should be ×10 in 6 years which roughly aligns with the end of the decade.

Actually void* just points to anything, with no regard to the type of that thing. Pointing to the void is more accurately described by NULL pointer.

Swiping left/right to seek only works if the video is paused apparently

Still false, thanks to compiler optimizations. Remember that integer overflow is UB. (unless you’re using unsigned int or a programming language which strictly defines integer overflow, possibly as an error)

P.S.: Assuming this is C/C++

But that often leaves behind the registry entries which may or may not cause problems.

I wonder why the downvote counter went into the negatives. (and for some reason that only seems to show in my home instance)
