The problem is what is a breaking/major change for kernel? Is it referring to user-space API? The kernel ABI? Or the driver functionality/ABI?

The problem is that most legacy code (especially firmwares) is C and will never have a chance to be rewritten in another language. If you get a chance into VLSI field you will be amazed that they are still relying on Tcl to do complicated s

For me, the most significant change is: > For C++ applications running on Windows, PDB now load in a separate 64-bit process. This change addresses a range of crashes caused by the debugger running out of memory when debugging applicatio

That's true, but not difficult as many people may think. In most cases you only need to remember most-used ~20 instructions and leave the remaining to reference. Sure it requires other domain knowledge, but it has almost nothing to do

Typescript, as I know, uses type erasure to implement generics, which can cause significant overhead in cases like JSON decoder.

Just wondering if it's possible to implement something like expression template used in Eigen3 in Rust. C++'s template can be used in more than generics.

The problem is that the community has already diverted in the way to organize sources, and each of them believes they have the best solution. Similarly, all C++ issues originate from the fragmentation of community: some (maybe 2/3) pre

Even simpler with some template boilerplate code: // Just copy paste this template<typename T> class CContainer { protected: T *pimpl; CContainer(T* raw_ptr): pimpl(raw_ptr) {}

Then we are basically on the same side. It's just our principles that vary. Security is ensured with external tools (e.g., SQL sanitizer/checker/minimum privilege), and AWS's 4TB instance exists for a reason - graph data

I totally agree on your points in the first paragraph, but sometimes the boundary between suitable and unsuitable tasks is quite vague, and cross-language development introduces new complexity. I mean if something is 2x in other languages,

The opposite is also correct. Last week I wrapped a Rust application into C++ application.

My stance is that "the majority of C++'s semantics" can also evolve with time, and one of C++'s the core design philosophy is to make core as minimal as possible so that the language can be evolved by how people use it

from my perspective, the biggest changes are: - auto var = eval() - add_observer([this](int value) { this->log(value); }); // lambda expression - vec2 = std::move(vec1); // everything in C++ by default is value-type,

TBH I'm more willing to see a negative filter on these claimed team-values. "Risk over stability" may sound attractive for me (as well as many new grads to polish their resumes) several years ago, until you realize it's

I think the prevalence of book of commented sources in China partly comes from the way that Chinese big companies interview people - asking a lot of implementation details (especially for DBs), even though in most cases that is useless in d

This sounds great but also may suffer from frauds: consider a company paying something like 500k in the first year then only paying minimum wage for the next N years together with early-leave penalty. Moreover even the first 500k might be

That's true, but according to my experience, it's usually better to perform gradual migrations like from Ruby to Crystal, if it can't solve the problem, try some other GC-based languages like Go. Things like Rust should be th
