I think you're still missing the point. It isn't all about what we can individually get. I don't want to live in a country where you have to have a special high-paying job to get fair and reasonable holidays and healthcare.

If you write code that can be called without 'unsafe' then you are required to make that code safe. Whether you implement it using unsafe underneath is irrelevant. The unsafe block is there because it does FFI, which hasn't

by alphaalpha101 9y ago
Sure, but this isn't unsafe code. Code using this library isn't written in an unsafe block, right? You just use it like any other Rust library?
95.
by alphaalpha101 9y ago
So given that this isn't actually safe, you can presumably write some code that has undefined behaviour using this library for us?

Signature mismatch? You have to sign your ballot? Doesn't that identify that it was your ballot? It's been a couple of years since I last voted in NZ (election in 3 weeks, and it's every 3 years) but I definitely don't t

It was not a complaint, it was a question , just like my top-level comment. Was that interpreted as a complaint as well? Is that the problem?

I really, really don't understand why this would get downvoted. Are people not allowed to ask questions now?

C++ uses `==` for whatever you want. But generally in C++, user-defined types will be documented as either having 'reference semantics' or 'value semantics' and all aspects of the type will conform to that.

So this new concurrent map? Am I right in understanding it's designed for cases where you have a map shared between goroutines but where each goroutine essentially owns some subset of the keys in the map? So basically it's designe

Sorry I'll try to avoid the 'what are you smoking?' sort of thing. Comment works completely fine without it, it's just rude.

>Growth in 2016 was 4%, not 1% and not -1%: https://www.google.com/publicdata/explore?ds=d5bncppjof8f9_&... . No it was not. Not per-capita. Growth ignoring population changes is literally completely irrelevant.

There's nothing remotely object-oriented about what I wrote. I don't see any inheritance. I don't see any polymorphism. I don't see any virtual member functions. And of course I'm using RAII to roll back the transac

How so? It's on the code review. They see the change, and learn about it..? 99.9% of code review that I do, and that I get, is not training. So maybe don't make all the changes for new employees? I use vim. Most people at my work

It suggests that he sympathises with Nazis, which is close enough to being a Nazi for most people.

1% growth is completely irrelevant. That's what I said: effectively in recession. The difference between 1% growth and 1% shrink is nothing. There's no reason we shouldn't be growing much more quickly. But we're not goin

I don't really agree that it's inelegant to decide whether the reason for quitting is a success or an exception, or whether it's necessary. Like, you've either committed, in which case you shouldn't need to do any c

The difference is that in Go, it is unidiomatic to share mutable state across threads, while in C/C++/Java it's not.

This sort of attitude is never going to win over people that you are talking about. I hate to bring politics into things, but it's like calling all Trump supporters hopeless and backwards. Yeah maybe they are, but they're going to

That's exactly what you have to do in Rust anyway though. Except instead of just writing `throws SomeError` in the declaration line of the function, you have to annotate virtually every line of your function with `?` and wrap the retur

Personally I loathe this style of programming. It's not that it's difficult, it just seems to obscure code a great deal. Writing this sort of thing in Rust: fun some_function(a: &A) -> Result<&B, SomeError>
