I wonder how many of the Rust defenders in this article actually know C++ and have written a production used Rust system, instead of a side-project on github, so that they can compare in an informed way? The author certainly has, but who el

Am I the only one who thinks the parent is to blame for this because she didn't have the common sense to give gloves to her kid in the cold weather... To me that's unacceptable.

60% of the people who took the survey develop software to support their main role. So, 60% of the people are not really software engineers but coders by necessity: could this explain the results easily?

You test all possible executions of your program when you test with all possible data inputs, which is infinite.

I think jupyter with C++ is an amazing idea, and I hope it will help more people to start with, in my subjective opinion, one of the most important programming languages today. That being said, I look down on all the commentators who say th

Have you heard of operator bool() ? If the library is implemented by people who know their stuff, each object will define operator bool() and you can then have code like: Foo foo; foo.init_from_file("/tml/lol"); if (foo)

This article uses a very contrived data set (bit manipulation), and also a "synthetically generated dataset", which would never occur in real life applications. This means that the results are unreliable and need to be repeated on

I am sure that the person who wrote this article did it for a reason and has been frustrated by "programmers". However, this is very anecdotal and, to be honest, doesn't desever more than a mere acknowledgement - yes, blindly

Most modern architectureshavs prefetch instructions. I'm not surprised compilers don't have this (they optimise for the average program), but I am surprised that specialised libraries like Boost aren't doing this.

Lol'd . To the contrary, it _can_ happen, and when it does the behaviour is undefined for C/C++. However, rest assured - you are probably on a x86_64 machine programming in sth like Ruby or Java script, so your Apps should be alri

All of it - these things aren't straightforward, you need to go knee-deep in this area of programming to have a good hnderstanding of it.
