Having to use their specific drivers is a bit annoying, but I honestly prefer that over drivers that dont work or dont exist at all. I really hope they can bring their stuff upstream at one point, but I can't deny that using their lapt

> Erlang's architecture allowed failing processes to be isolated and restarted without affecting the entire system. Wait does that mean the erlang program actually spawned child processes as opposed to a thread pool of some kind?

Yeah you don't get its std library, but Rust makes a distinction between core and std, and core is available. Doesn't sound like a lot but you get your standard types like Result and Option, you get slices since they're part

That's the most frustrating part, a lot of the std library would work on a bare metal system (and would be rather useful), but getting those parts into your project and avoiding the ones that will give you compiler errors in form of es

Obligatory C is not a low level language: https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=3212479 I also have to disagree with C++ for micro controllers / bare metal programming. You don't get the standard library so you&#x27

I assume you're referring to C++ with all of its... features. And yeah, its a mess. Even when you think you have a good understanding of at least one part of the language, you'll stumble across some small section of cppreference t

"Software" in a vehicle is more than just the UI in the dashboard. Your engine control, your ABS and your traction control all run software (or "firmware", whatever that word means in this age) and they have been for dec

I'm fine with them used sparingly in documentation, but in actual terminal output they mostly don't get rendered properly so I'd stick to nerd fonts if I want "icons" of any kind.

I'm not sure who first coined this idea or put it in a book or where I've read it, but for code comments I generally like the "explain why, not what" philosophy. The "what" is answered by the code itself and s

You don't need developers with 20 years of experience in a specific language. Any decent engineer must be able to work with other languages and tools. What you're looking for is someone with experience building systems in your are

We do use clangd and it provides many checks, but I wanted to include clang-tidy in the CI. Though since me and my colleagues combine ff-only and ‘must build successfully before merging’, adding like 5 minutes to the CI is really annoying.

I dont think we should fine any of the people that worked on it. In the end the decision makers are the ones being paid to be responsible so they should be held responsible. However, there is a conversation to be had about engineers writing

>Refuse to use it today That's genuinely awful advice. Besides the fact that there are other DNS providers that can do DNS over HTTPS, disabling it just makes things worse. - you still fire all of your DNS requests to a single host

They're right I wish I could start writing Rust instead of C++ at work...

Id like to see this kind of brake light as the default for any vehicle, not just motorbikes. As for the noise, I get it. And I think the industry and the riders are to blame, motorbikes have been getting outrageously loud. Especially the fa

"It can't get any worse than C++" That's my response. So just use rust. In the long run you'll save time as well.

I can't speak for a bigger rust project, but my experience with C++ (mostly with cmake) is so awful that I don't think it can get any worse. Like with any bigger C++ project there's like 3 build tools, two different packaging

Good, let it crash and burn to the point where chrome/chromium is recognized as the monopoly it effectively already is.
