Saying, well a rule of thumb is, well, 100 billion bytes is a 100 gigabytes, is well, not a rule of thumb. It is, well, just the common definition.

You said you had concurrency problems with the STL, but none of it has any intersection with concurrency, that is left to the users. There are no expectations there unless you were using threads, atomics, mutexes etc. and they had bugs.

You don't get to reply and tell me I'm lying about something then get upset when I reply back. You can always actually explain in depth why I'm wrong.

If you aren't, wouldn't that imply that the concurrency problems are with you and not with the standard library?

I don't know if that's, well, a rule of thumb, it might be, well, straight multiplication.

In fact, in one of these projects I was pushed to use STL initially. I'm now working on getting rid of the last of them because we have had concurrency bugs Which part of the STL are you expecting to be thread safe?

It's not a parallel at all, the two things have nothing to do with each other. One means nothing and gives no new information, the other is about the complexity of getting familiar with software for people which is why adding more peop

> I don't think you did, I think you just said it has downsides over and over. Show evidence of your claim. That would be proving a negative, which is another logical fallacy. Please p off man. You're being ridiculous.* If

How about you do the following two Google (or AI) searches Why don't you do it so you can make your own argument. Why does it seem like the majority of core infrastructure, Why are projects started decades not using modern C++ that

I have given a variety of arguments why I think the C++ RAII specifically has downsides. I don't think you did, I think you just said it has downsides over and over. Once again you're explaining beginner C++ do me. Don't

It might seem obvious if you don't think about it much, but one is a pragmatic breakdown from experience and one just says "adding cpus won't work forever if there is some part where you can't add more cpus". One is

It's your claim that destructors are harmful so the burden of proof is on you. People use them because by default values have scope based lifetimes and destructors unify the handling of stack based values which require no explicit clea

People have gone down this road of selling niche tools many times in the past in film making. There are a lot of pitfalls. For starters not many people need story boarding. When someone is actually doing a project that is big enough to need

Because we're maybe 10-20 iterations away (250 years, tops?) from brain uploads and everlasting life harvesting the energy of distant stars. Or at least our descendants are. You can predict 250 years in the future now and when '

It's not even some difficult technical task like people think. The back of a TV is kind of like a PC but much simpler. There is the power board (AC to DC conversion for electronics and leds), video input board (where you plug in HDMI e

You can intercept normal DNS with iptables rules. The best way to deal with a TV you don't trust is what no one wants to hear. Open up the back and disconnect the wifi antenna. It is easy to open them up and everything is pretty simple

amdahl's law is trivial tautological nonsense and has nothing to do with the mythical man month. The mythical man month is about communication between people and the amount of work to be productive in a project. It's about people

Everything already exists Then why are you trying to make something?

I've argued elsewhere some things that are wrong with RAII and C++ objects in general. You claimed there were problems many times for sure, I don't think you came up with any evidence of those problems.

If you blindly embed everything by value religiously, you deserve neither flexibility nor correctness nor performance. I don't know what 'deserve' is supposed to mean, but I just showed how to get all three. don't for

That's not so much the point: It is the point since you compared two things that have different uses, then said you can't call an operator on a pointer, which is wrong.

are you STILL under the impression you need to explain beginner level C++ to me? Yes you can btw remove the move() from the return statement in this example. First you say you have a problem with not knowing if something will copy or mo

I'm hoping to find a reason to use it soon. Do you have a program that doesn't need to run fast?
