It is simple, they know it well and it works. Just like C89.

Glad he is sharing his findings with OpenBSD and FreeBSD too. Great work.

Just do something really technically awesome in Rust that becomes hugely popular and the language will speak for itself. I've not seen that yet. But I do hear a lot of fanaticism. That's normally a bad sign. Docker is written in G

Good that you can specify -std=c++11 to prevent the bloat. The more recent 14 and 17 standards don't seem as groundbreaking and practical (both at the same time) as 11 was and, as you note, do seem to bring bloat.

Anything that has a type system is using static analysis.

Same experience here with the trivia questions. They called me out of the blue about 10 years ago and said they wanted to interview me. So I said OK. Later, during the interview, the questions were largely trivia. How do you remove a file u

I'm concerned that the same thing will happen to libraries and books someday. Books are a great technology. I hope we don't throw them out too.

On the IoT device itself, sqlite would be a good choice due to its simplicity and the fact that it's small enough to fit and run. As an aside, I find that I can use sqlite for 90% of the DB needs I have. For the other 10% (multiple wri

You can do that. IMO, the best approach is to just buy a 15K to 25K life insurance policy. If you are young and healthy, it'll only cost 10 dollars a month (maybe less) and the nice thing about those is that you/your beneficiary g

It's common for funeral homes, in the South East, to do no cost or very low cost infant ceremonies and burials. Maybe common in other areas too, but I can't say for certain. I saw this first hand in Georgia, North Carolina and Vir

"In June 1970, E. F. Codd of IBM Research published a paper [1] defining the relational data model and introducing the concept of data independence. Codd's thesis was that queries should be expressed in terms of high-level, non

I've recently started writing all my scripts in Python 3 as I need to future-proof some things. And it just works now. No problems. So if you tried Py3 years ago and had issues, try again today.

No one has made students do anything. These are choices. Some choices cost more than others. You should pick one that you can afford and that has a future income potential. And, there are some top quality programs that are very affordable.

I think the OP's point is, that's what a jar file was supposed to do. You can ship a bundled-up jar file to anyone and they can run it so long as they have the right JVM installed. Now, you replace 'the right JVM install&#x27

It's just more C++ ish to write something::listen rather than something_listen. Namespaces are easy too. Why not?

The only way to not be tracked is to not use a network (cellular or otherwise).

It's a simple fix. Just need an egress ACL. UDP packets with source IPs not from here should never make it past the edge router. Lies, damn lies and UDP packets.

One day, only governments and criminals will be able to send UDP packets.

I think so. Just set the bits and test them as needed.

by w8rbt 9y ago
I agree. Just need to set some bits and test them. This is too big really for a tree or a hash table.

They probably want us to get into the stock market casino. Just lost half of your money? Remember you are in it long term . It'll go back up and you just need to diversify more (give the broker more money) so you won't lose

Legally that is. Nothing but the law and the fact that most people are honest prevents it. Anyone may purchase a 20 dollar 2m/440 radio and press the PTT :)

I think that's mainly because C++ is an ISO standard used all over the world by big business and governments. So its standards are released less often and with a great deal of testing and care. I bet you will be able to specify -std=c+

There may not be humans or cattle around, but all sorts of wild animals defecate, urinate, procreate, etc. in water. Treat the water (boil, filter, pills, etc.) before using it and you'll be OK.

I hope Lambda supports C++ natively someday. That would be awesome. Glad to see Go support was added recently too.
