Skype reliability has deteriorated considerably over the years. We have switched over to Google Hangouts which is more reliable and has better video quality.

Thanks for the suggestions. There has been some work to make formatting more customizable ( https://github.com/cppformat/cppformat/issues/235 ). This will enable extensions like the ones you suggest while keepi

It's a bit sad that the formatting API hasn't improved in C over the years. Take this code, for example: printf("Local number: %" PRIdPTR "\n\n", someIntPtr); which is quite unreadable to say the least.

Pretty sure that it's not intentional by the look of the waves that go through the side of the boat.

Looks very nice apart from some minor details like water going through the boat. And runs very smoothly on my old Linux laptop with a built-in graphics card.

It would be great if it was specified whether each library works offline for comparison. For example, Google Charts don't work offline.

I don't always write dangerous code, but when I do I fully realize it =). And it has nothing to do with any of the features that you listed. In fact "threading" in C++ is safer because of the availability of high-quality libr

I wouldn't call it a pitfall. Boost is written by C++ experts who like to push the boundaries of what can be done with the language. This doesn't mean that you have to debug their code or overuse templates yourself and there is no

These are trivial issues compared to major safety and usability flaws inherited from C that I mentioned. BTW the C grammar is not context-free either. The compilation speed is mostly due to header system which is again a C heritage, not bec

From my experience, if you need to write many exception handlers then you have a problem in your design as you are using exceptions where you should have used explicit control flow. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with the exceptions a

Actually avoiding C++ pitfalls is not that difficult as most of them come from C: manual memory management, macros, varargs, unsafe casts. In fact C++ provides safe alternatives to many of the unsafe C constructs, so if you stick to them yo

Calling C, C++ and Java "the most different programming languages in the world" is, of course, an exaggeration, but it's hard to disagree that the way you write idiomatic code in the three language is completely different.
