As a French, let me tell you that I find the behaviour of many Parisian waiters rude and unprofessional, perhaps that's because I'm not Parisian though..

> The problem with French is that the French are very sensitive to mistakes. Define sensitive? When my wife (who is Czech) or my colleague (who is Venezuelan) make French errors, I correct them the same way I correct my children: not bec

make gave me a lot less trouble than cmake, I just wished that it had a debugger which remake has!

Probably a plugin issue, not a real VScode issue.

In France there's a famous singer who beat a woman to death, by the same logic this is private business between him, the justice and the woman's family? I say no: at some point I don't want to be 'entertained' by so

I'm French and I prefer very much 'liberté, égalité, fraternité' as a moral standard than British's queen/king who are definitively not equal with their subjects.

Sure but SeL4 is a tiny part of an OS..

Why Redox OS isn't based on seL4? Are there limitations of seL4 which blocked its usage?

That is an oversimplification, very often you know something that cannot be expressed in the types, so escape hatch (cast/unsafe) are useful. That said, if you can wrap around these 'hack' in a 'sane' API, then it&#

I used it until a few month ago: it worked better (lower latency and no need to specify the resolution) than VNC but clion doesn't work well with NX, so I switched to VNC.

Strange claim, have you ever heard about Ada?

When I learned APL (which I never used) that when there was a bug, it was faster to rewrite the whole line using a different way than to debug the line. A truly 'write only' language.. It shows in the article: the 'min'

Except that nearly all the RISCs have a 16-bit instruction extension which brings their instruction density nearly equal to the CISCs' one. And the decoding remain much simpler than the CISC's one. That said ForwardCom blur the bo

Bah I read a lot about the niceties of using autoformaters then I had to use clang-format for C++ at work and when I discovered that the format is totally borked when you use macros in lambdas, well.. I prefer manual formatting, yes each co

1) Define usability? Syntax? 2) Which language do you find "usable"?

Yes, it always annoys how much C++ code is "integer typed"..

sigh : this doesn't matter, this is a library provided feature not a language feature (like Ada) so if you try to use something else than 1-based array you'll find lots of incompatible libraries..

Inside one application OK but for other use it'd be a security and stability nightmare: less memory protection..

Color me skeptical: ForwardCom or the Mill are CPU designs which bring real improvements, but for me the RISC-V is a tweaked MIPS with an open ISA.

Vim or Vim + YouCompleteMe? Because comparing VSCode which analyze your codebase with Vim alone isn't a fair comparison. My take: I prefer very much VSCode to Eclipse or CLion (Linux on large C++ codebase). As for Vim, I've never

I'm not sure what's your point: the human was in charge because the automated system failed. Yes, one pilot made an error which crashed the plane but IMHO the designers of the "airplane UI" are guilty too: one pilot is p

The "loosing the errno" issue seems to me easily avoidable: just save the current value if ferror returns an error.

Maybe you didn't hear about it, but I've just started using VSCode and I was quite surprised by its "file open" widget, I wanted to paste a file path and didn't know where to click to do it. Will I still keep using
