Is that in metric or imperial measurements ? 
I'd rather be phishing!

It's either in European or African, I think.

Very. We have to wait until the 31st April for Pi day. Every year, I get ready to celebrate, then... nothing.

Yes but it happen only on double leap years

Children learning mathematics must thank the Indiana legislature.
For, they once attempted to legislate that pi is equal to 3, greatly simplifying many calculations.
Unfortunately, some eggheads intervened and the legislation was dropped from consideration.

Murray Walker: Formula 1 broadcasting legend dies at 97 - BBC Sport[^]
If you don't know who he was, he was the commentator on F1 races for decades, and was famous for his ... um ... helpful comments:
Quote: The lead car is unique, except for the one behind it which is identical.
Quote: And now, excuse me while I interrupt myself.
Quote: And that just shows you how important the car is in Formula One Racing.
Quote: There are seven winners of the Monaco Grand Prix on the starting line today, and four of them are Michael Schumacher.
and how could we forget:
Quote: There's nothing wrong with the car except that it's on fire.

We need somebody with his sense of humor to spruce up the extremely boring Nascar races!

It'd still be boring, because it's just a bunch of cars going around an oval.

How about adding some curves?
Preferably in both directions.

Having those cars travel in both directions will quickly lead to the elimination of many drivers!

Not intentionally. But his enthusiasm and passion, his lack of inhibition when behind the microphone, his sheer excitement with racing, would surely make anyone smile - even with no interest in motor sport. When he retired from commentating the viewing ratings dropped significantly. After that I watched it for Martin Brundle's pit walk before the race, and then the first two and last couple of laps only.

I'm doing a bunch of metaprogramming but I am targeting devices where the code space is limited, so I can't have a bunch of dead code in my final (ELF) binaries.
If I optimize, but keep symbols is there a tool out there any of you know of that will allow me to examine what of my "user code" (excluding the stdlibs, as long as I don't call them) gets generated? I don't care whether it needs to examine object files or not, that's fine.
Basically I'd like to look through an optimized binary (or the .o files it generated) to find out what the compiler didn't manage to optimize out in terms of leftover code from all the template witchcraft.
I know i can dump the assembly of the relevant .o file but i want something that cross references for me.
Thanks in advance.

I assume you already use all them GCC flags:
"When compiling -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections, when linking -Wl,--gc-sections,--print-gc-sections "
from that unmentionable source.
The link just above it suggests analysing the exportable AST from Clang. Now that sounds like your kind of project!
I would've thought such a tool is easier to base on the AST (i.e. static code analysis) than the final code, optimzed or not. But then I might be missing something.

Curtis & Leroy saw an ad in the loal paper and bought a mule for $100.
The farmer agreed to deliver the mule the next day.
The next morning the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry, fellows, I have some bad news, the mule died last night."
Curtis & Leroy replied, Well, then just give us our money back."
The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."
They said, "OK then, just bring us the dead mule."
The farmer asked, "What in the world ya'll gonna do with a dead mule?"
Curtis said, "We gonna raffle him off." The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead mule!"
Leroy said, "We sure can! Heck, we don't hafta tell nobody he's dead!"
A couple of weeks later, the farmer ran into Curtis & Leroy at the Piggly Wiggly grocery store and asked.
"What'd you fellers ever do with that dead mule?"
They said, "We raffled him off like we said we was gonna do."
Leroy said, "Shucks, we sold 500 tickets for two dollars apiece and made a profit of $998."
The farmer said, "My Lord, didn't anyone complain?"
Curtis said, "Well, the feller who won got upset. So we gave him his two dollars back."
