Why do you think it's better? I don't use either Ruby or Python but I think that the first way is more natural.

The Simula webpage made me smile, if you spend too much time with your neck moved like it is shown, you'll regret it sorely at the end of the day.. It's probably much better for the neck to "move the world" than to move

And then some people are surprised when I tell them that I hate C and C++ even though I'm considered a 'C++ expert'.. Too bad, the DoD didn't have the foresight to create/sponsor a Free Ada compiler sooner.. And the

Sorry, but I'm not so sure with VSCode I'm nearly instantly productive, with vim I have to spend a lot of time before being able to navigate in C++ files..

There are several versions of the "the formatting mini-language" and the documentation that Google return first is for an old one which didn't have this feature :-(

I think like many programmers are "bottom up" (including me), I had a hard time understand virtual methods until I read an example on how they were implemented, then I was able to understand what it was and then the explanation wh

I'm not so sure: now we have academies which tries to codify language changes..

Uh? Given that I'm French I doubt very much that this is true.. Foreigners learning French have to spend a lot of time learning stupid things such as is-it a she-stone (une pierre) or a he-stone(un caillou)? Knowing where to write an o

Fedora's credo is to deploy new technologies so they did a lot of rushed deployment, no surprise there but I don't see how this "excuse" Zoom, 2018 is not so recent anymore..

On Windows tigerVNC has dynamic resolution which is very useful, but yes VNC’s latency is poor..

If memory serves Rust provides memory safety but memory leaks aren't considered 'unsafe' so I'm not so sure for the memory leaks..

Nice, I hope it will be improved to print the variable names as in Python f-string, something like "{x=}" generating "x=<value of x>", much better than having to write "x={x}" everywhere..

Uh? Perl optionally requires you to declare variables, which is a good idea IMHO, no noise for small script and any experimented Perl programmer will have learned that 'use strict' is a really good idea for big scripts..

I hate variables shadowing, I'm very surprised that they allowed it in Rust, I saw an unpected behaviour caused by variable shadowing in C++ (global variable hidden by member variable) just last week..

Lots of marketing backed by lots of money.. I remember trying to use Java in the Java2 days when every magazine would tell you how it's great, but the reality was that I was wasting a lot of time working around bugs in the Java librari

Yes, I was thinking about it recently, there's an initiative to integrate Rust into the Linux kernel, but it's going to be tough: Rust isn't a simple language to learn.. But I expect lots of "grassroot" experimentat

D is chock-full of very good ideas but original-D has a GC so it's not really a competition for C++. DasBetterC has no GC but it's quite new so it must compete for mindshare with Rust, Zig, V, Odin..

Given that the alternative of Nix use a Lisp instead I'm not that sure of the 'obviousness' here..

Unfortunately this requires some 'buy in' from the managers which means that many programs are integer/string typed instead of being strongly typed..

It's not specific to the USA, in France the situation is the same, most of the young women want the 'alpha male' so if you're not one, you have to wait until you're older.. It made being young much less pleasant tha

Which has pros and cons: a pointer indirection can be expensive so the potential additional cost is hidden and pointers semantic is so different than hiding their usage is a bit risky.. That said this simplify refactoring and is much less &

Zig seems more complex than V due to its "compile time" execution, so I'm not surprised that it takes longer to write a "self-hosted" compiler. V seems more general purpose, Zig is focused on embedded which makes it

I didn't say that it was easy, I said that it was easier than supporting all the hardware than Linux support in another kernel.. That said, there are quite a few people working on 'realtime' Linux, it has some commonalities
