  • I heavily disagree. C++ has a lot of problems but it’s flexibility is not one of them.

    Imo the biggest problem with C++ is that there are a dozens ways of doing the same thing. The std lib is not general and fast enough for everyone. Therefore it’s not even “standard” .

    I have seen many conferences of a proposed “cpp2” like syntax that breaks abi but imo it’s the best way forward.













  • Reasons everywhere to leave reddit, Twitter and even YouTube (who we all probably thought they couldn’t ruin their reputation).

    And yet the masses won’t. They care too much about bots inflating their follow numbers and people with a community don’t want to make an effort to keep it outside of the platform. Twitter is at its worst it’s ever been but that doesn’t seem to matter to anyone.







  • I don’t really know how to explain my job to someone without them thinking it’s something else. Maybe it’s ego but I hate saying I’m a dev (and which kind) because of what they’re going to assume but I also don’t want to say something pretentious like “I solve problems”.

    I have been thinking of just saying I program even though that’s very reductionist but at the same time I don’t want to answer any questions about my work.

    I guess you could say I wish I had a real job that did real things.
