No, I think it's written like that on purpose.

whats the rationale for writing technical documentation like its a series of casual text messages

Languages where there has been significant modernization and progress, but where codebases and online resources lag behind: CMake, PHP, CSS

Seems like the level 5/level 6 charmander split could be avoided by just losing on purpose by using growl.

How can I download my notebooks on a free account? The internet says to use the desktop app, but I can't log in there without upgrading.

I thought that was how you changed the chord at that position

What does mainlining mean in this context?

Such a strange, unhelpful and speculative thing to say

That's not really what I mean (I meant that it's not going to result in any difference in which system calls are made etc). If you flush manually, the runtime-provided routine that closes all streams (see e.g. https://w

by jonathrg 4y ago
Strictly speaking yes (or the "C++ version" could replace std::endl with \n), but the observable behavior isn't going to change much. The runtime is going to flush the output buffer at program exit anyway.

> What we are testing by running these programs is the overhead due to the choice of programming language. That's just wrong. The first example is a perfectly fine hello world in C++. This is overhead due to the choice of API used t

If I understand the implementation section of the proposal correctly, the preprocessor will just add ome cast to (const char*) per function call (assuming the innermost argument is const). Nothing exponential

by jonathrg 4y ago
How exactly can this lead to exponential explosion?

Ow, good to know. int.to_bytes and bytes.to_int requires a byteorder argument, curious that struct doesn't

I think it's nice that this will soon be possible to do without adding Python as a dependency in your build system
169.

It depends on your definition of small files. A few hundred kB to a few megabytes will make compilation speed and memory usage explode if you embed it as text, see section 3.2 in https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/

You just make your array type uint8_t or whatever you need as long as it supports integer literals. See section 4 in https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n3017.htm#i...

Yes. There is an example in the article

That's not really the right conclusion to draw from this article

If you assign a lambda to a variable, you might as well use a def. A more typical use of a lambda is as an arguments to a function call. What would be the name of, say, the first argument to map(lambda x: x*2, numbers)?
174.
by jonathrg 5y ago
lambdas don't have names, how could the interpreter possibly improve in this regard?
175.
by jonathrg 5y ago
The point is that the function is created only once, like when you pass a lambda to map/filter/reduce or any function that takes a callback. The fact that it is assigned here is just a neccessary step for the timeit command to do

It's interesting how the USB protocol is so flexible while also having hard-coded support for all kinds of extremely application-specific features

It had been optimized (and deprecated) since then. See https://github.com/left-pad/left-pad/blob/master/index.js

A warning would be nice, is there a way to implement that without changing the compiler though?
179.
by jonathrg 5y ago
These are just simple API design issues in the standard library, nothing to do with the language itself.

The ban can be rolled out gradually by not including banned.h everywhere.
