If I understood correctly, it is not possible to manually manage memory in Rust and do things like memory recycling or pools?

I can't upvote you enough. Nothing cynical but remember the HR is paid by the company, not by you.

To met it's pretty clear that the language C++ programmers were waiting for is called C++ 14.

Don't be so negative. Microsoft announced a partnership with Docker. And there is a lot of free software on Windows as well.

On one hand the taxi monopoly is certainly something which has to be reconsidered, on the other hand I'm not sure UberX screening and insurance is sufficient.

You're speaking four related western European languages. For example, when you learned English, notwithstanding the fact that you are surrounded by English since you're a child, you had from day one several thousands words of voca

It's much harder to learn a language from scratch at that age with that kind of schedule. Every human language is hard to learn once you go beyond the basics, but what makes a language hard to learn for you is the distance with your mo

If you set aside looks, better sleep and overall better mood, core strength is vital to good health. Unless you think back pain is cool, of course. Your body is supposed to get moving.

Nothing will help your back more than squats and deadlifts. But swimming is excellent as well.

I'm also disappointed by this article. High intensity workouts are actually the golden way toward strength building. Of course like any sport you need a certain degree of supervision to prevent injuries. Where's the author getting

Banks are not longer allowed to charge for transactions within the Euro zone.

That can be both a pro and a con.

Yeah my example for copy elision sucked, but that doesn't mean it cannot play in favor when you work by value. Sharing is only multithreading unfriendly if there's modification happening, modification of textual (i.e. Unicode) da

For small strings, a copy is not only faster but more multithreading friendly. Keep in mind that on a 64-bit architecture a view is at least 16 bytes large and that small strings can be copied to the stack resulting in better locality and r

The string_view pattern is a pretty bad idea and useless with a decent compiler.

The JVM, who is several order of magnitudes better than the Ruby VM, constantly gets smashed in terms of performance and memory usage by a well designed C++ program. Why? Because in theory, a VM should be able to do as well, if not better,

It's illegal for the seller to accept cash beyond 3,000 € (see the law above). Important point: checks and wire transfers are free.

by shin_lao 12y ago
Absolutely not. Why would I want to pay in cash? It's neither convenient nor safe.

by shin_lao 12y ago
I don't see what the problem is. In France if you carry more than 10,000 € in cash, you need to make a custom declaration. It's also illegal to buy something for more than 3,000 € in cash.

I think the Folly small vector library is much more interesting and can yield better performance (if you hit the sweet spot). https://github.com/facebook/folly/blob/master/folly/docs/sma... Fro

With that kind of reasoning I could post in Russian and if you complain that you don't understand I would retort that you just need to translate my comments...

I came here to say the same thing. It might sound like nitpicking, but the site is unusable as is for us, civilized people. :-)

My first advice would be that this friend has to put money into the company. You need him to show commitment. It doesn't have to be a lot, maybe just $ 10,000. If he refuses to put any money into the company, you have an employee, not

The FQA states that the C++ doesn't have garbage collection and presents that as a problem. It's a non sequitur. It's like saying "I don't like this knife, I cannot eat soup with it".

This FQA is often posted and you should know it's subjective and outdated. You can read more about it here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3171647/errors-in-c-fqa

You're most likely to have a bug caused by a hardware failure than a problem caused by colliding UUIDs (provided they are properly generated or large enough).

Thanks for the feedback, but did you notice this part? In our case, we have some additional homework to make it work on several nodes that is well beyond the scope of this post As for multithreading, the functions are guaranteed monotonic
