I think you are wrong in a funny way. Memory safety and memory leaks and stuff dont always matter. This sparked and interesting memory for me. I was once working with a customer who was producing on-board software for a missile. In my analy

its such a useful technique. tiny binaries ftw!!

Nothing happens in julia

You have all that in C++ too. Exceptions are near zero cost and used everywhere, sometimes even in embedded stuff too.

by ArtixFox 2y ago
i dont think it matters, if you have any exception in the critical boot part, you will end up with this. Rust cannot fix this. Microkernels might.

unhandled null in rust will still cause panic. still cause the bootloop.

by ArtixFox 2y ago
I mean the issue would still happen even if they switched to rust.

by ArtixFox 2y ago
There are more criticisms of rust and c++ but sure.

adding to this, People that say cargo check is the answer dont even understand the problem at hand. Just because the language is compiled does not mean it needs to take 30 business days to compile something. You can have fast compile times

by ArtixFox 2y ago
cargo check will take long once you use macros. And now the advice changes to "well you shouldnt use that many macros", and a new criticism will be made, followed by "well you shouldnt....." and a new... I dont think t

I mean medicore compared to c++/c Not Java or c#. My bad.

Im sorry i similar things on my sbcl, and i cannot see the output you are seeing. CL-USER> (defun fx-add (x y) (declare (optimize (speed 3) (safety 0) (debug 0)) (type fixnum x y)) (+ x y)) [OUT]: FX-ADD CL-USER> (disass

Anything C++ 17 and above is golden. I personally use a few things from C++20/23 and rely a lot on carefully reading and trying to understand https://en.cppreference.com/w/ when it comes to anything I might not be

C++ is extensively used in HPC and in the lower level aspects of machine learning. I dont know what you are trying to make so I cannot make a recommendation. C++ has a lot of pain points that are being either tackled by the committee or the

having near instantaneous builds is easy to achieve in C++ [depending upon projects, this will not happen for llvm] to the point that even REPLs for C++ exist that are used for large scale physics data analysis at CERN.

Maybe try repeating the whole thread? I have no idea why I am being bombarded about all this language crap lmao. Keep yalls evangelism to urself.

but..it is possible tho?

by ArtixFox 2y ago
The discussion has nothing to do with the importance of a specific skill.
52.
by ArtixFox 2y ago
But you can implement the same algorithm in c++, you can even implement it in assembly, or brainfuck! I do not care about c++ or rust or any of the language wars stuff. All I wanted to do was point out that the initial statement about disr

thats nice! in my first comment I did say that both are good for performance. I just find the idea of performance being irrelevant to be...ridiculous.

by ArtixFox 2y ago
How does that matter??
55.
by ArtixFox 2y ago
Performance is overrated? What? I'm sorry but not all people are rich enough to own multiple threadrippers. Performance is a skill, probably one of the most important skills. Rust is a darn language, not a skill. You can have performa

pls pls pls go for one of those languages with some level of formal verification! it'd be soo cool to see a formally verified browser! But, ladybird is one of the coolest things I saw in 2024!!!

Majority of the high quality libraries are written in either C++ or a mix of C/C++. Leaving all that behind for a new language is a hard decision to make. Especially when they specifically left SerenityOS to focus on actually being a b

Yeah, unfortunately the world is super into c and c++ tot he point that billions have been spent on making it safe via frama-c, astree and friends rather than in funding an actual safe language.

by ArtixFox 2y ago
people are not building things with it. The more you build the more popular it gets.

by ArtixFox 2y ago
Because he wants to. C++ is used because 90% of all safety critical software is written in c++.
