.. is it new development?

by mihaigalos 4y ago
As far as I'm concerned, C++ is there for legacy purposes only. There are some nice frameworks and tools using it, sure. Yes, you are required to learn it if you are studying CS. Any serious new development today is done using more mod

You could change cities, countries, continents. Yes, the prices are rising everywhere but rents in i.e. eastern Europe are 3-5x lower than in the west.

That's interesting. Would like to read about the solution more. Do you have a reference?

Wow, very nice! I didn't know that. I love how the language is evolving, it also now has generics.

Check out the discord article I posted in the original reply. If I interpret the graphs correctly, I see: Golang: * baseline 20% cpu + spikes to 35% once the GC runs. * response times of about 1ms + spikes up to 10ms. Rust: * baseline 12% c

What are you looking for in the 2 languages? Here are some of my thoughts: Golang * Development speed: Golang wins by far. It's closer to Python in that regard, but with strong typing. * Very nice multi-threading via Go routines and ch

The graphic in the article represents a Gantt chart implying a waterfall process. Nuff said.

Electron or Chrome are not the topic of this thread. I also don't appreciate whataboutism, sorry.

That was a rhetorical question, I am not implying you should do anything. Thank you for the transparency.

The community isn't too friendly, I'm sorry. In the cited thread, I've deleted my contribution because of the tone of the discussion (passive-agressive know-it-alls with smirk emojis): https://github.com/vlang

I do think V is amazing and has a bright future. Thank you for putting time in it. If I may, I still believe even 1 byte is a serious matter imho.

I have to disagree here. Any fix should produce at least a test to guard against regressions of the bug it's trying to fix and encode the correct business logic. The test name would then explain the why. The test variables present the

I see tests as documentation. They show you how to interact with a component and what the expected behavior should be. In BDD, you go one step further and write down a formal description of inputs and expected outputs. Would agree that the

I see tests as executable documentation/specification. TDD reinforces that view. i.e. rust even has the specification of parts of its functionality using asserts (in the docs): https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std&

I particularly liked this article [1]. Certification is IMHO people selling just about anything as a silver bullet/snake oil. There is no such magical solution, because one needs to adapt the Agile template to their organization'

I backup everything directly to GitHub. I first encrypt/seal my passwords/files using a Yubikey+PIN then git push them. Here's my take on the automation: https://github.com/mihaigalos/pass

I've had the pleasure of multiple trainings from Klaus Iglberger. Here's a talk he gave concerning free functions at CPPCON'17 [1]. It's high-level enough to be understood by non-C++ devs and I believe it can be applied

The trouble with a mechanical off switch is that you cannot easily / periodically turn it on, so it depends on your usecase. AVR Picopower has been around for about 10y now. These devices dramatically drop power consumption to the poin

MITM certs are in place, yes. I suspected DNS lookup is denied, but that also works. Not sure why my client is not connecting, if ssh is the outbound transport, perhaps it's because port 22 is blocked for non-network addresses?
