Interesting that I also am learning c++ since some months and I have a very similar feedback as you. Just to add something: > - C++ 20 concepts are a near mirror copy of Rust Traits and enable composition that's an alternative to in

What you guys do is freaking amazing. I have been following you for a while now, although I never applied. Who knows!

I don't have the professional experience that most of the commenters here have, but I hear a lot of negativity. Like, a lot. Sure, the compilers might be a little bit behind, but who cares, I believe it's just a matter of time bef

I have to admit that a few months ago I wrote on HN that Elon could do anything he wanted in order to let the price go down. And for a while I really believed that he would make it. Apparently there is still some justice in the world, and h

I doubt you'll hear anything if you work in Azure :) (I don't work at MS but I guess it's a significant piece of their strategy today).

Indeed, I just looked it up: https://www.euronuclear.org/glossary/nuclear-power-plants-in... For God's sake, France has 56 power plants. What are we talking about....

> Increasingly, you can swap out Oracle with Postgres. Well, there is also a huge decrease of DB competencies around (myself first, not shifting the blame on anyone). So, now finally all you need is "just a db", DBAs are gone.

by mk89 4y ago
> Oracle's DB is quite stable and reliable Can't speak for the OP but I think that's what he/she meant. Tooling might not be the best due to their proprietary nature, but the software itself kicks ass.

Really interesting topic: do you have any source you could share?

It's always nice when there is a human in the loop. Thanks for sharing!

People, I really tried to read comments to understand if someone had my same question: what for? Eventually you need to pay this person, he/she will need to give you some ID or passport, etc. How can someone just employ a name? Or is i

how many note taking apps do you have? without even going on my phone, I think 70% of my apps need internet access (for a reason).

Well, there is also the security aspect in mind. Most software relies on libraries that repeatedly get CVEs over months (not years). You might not care too much, and it clearly depends on the application, but for me updating a software that

Yeah, I kind of envy that. Although with Clang-tidy I sometimes see GSL warnings: https://clang.llvm.org/extra/clang-tidy/ which is pretty cool - I wonder how up-to-date that is compared to the GSL extension. The

Related to this, maybe: an issue I had was also the fact that online many of the help pages are really outdated. I can't forget an old accepted "much voted" answer I saw on stackoverflow which claimed that raw pointers should

One thing that helps is choosing a technology you already know to achieve the learning you desire. For example, if you want to learn Qt, and you know only C++, don't bother with Python. It will help you focus on the framework 100%. Mac

It reminds me of Bear on Mac. Very nicely done, Qt is a great framework!

Who is ever going to use Akka after the "3 years"? It says a lot about the company. An despite the fact I love the technology and its community, I wouldn't recommend it anymore, at all. The pricing is simply not right. I mean

I believe that there was much less violence in the past than there is now. Or at least that's the perception, hence, we want to avoid that our kids get into real trouble. Not that it wasn't the case 30 years ago, however, things h

Even better. Some days ago I read that India was [re-]selling Russian oil to USA. :) of course, they didn't know it. Good luck preventing bad actors from actually selling such illegal items. https://www.reuters.com/busi

They have 118/416 seats of the current government, which is more than 16%, and that's what actually matters. If SPD and FDP tomorrow want to bring nuclear energy back, good luck doing that on such a controversial topic (if nobody

So as of today, mid 2022 ... there is still again ONE only reliable cloud? How can a company fight the so called "vendor lock-in" without opening their own data center? The only alternative I see is just really going against the f
