Do i know somehow with good C knowledge?
I searching for features of C versions that are originated from C++.
I know C23 got [[nodiscard]], but I'm searching also for
C99
C11
C17

Rapid Development with Runtime Compiled C++ Talk & transcript:
This is a decent introduction to the RCC+ tech I developed with Matthew Jack, and have continued to develop and use in Avoyd. It's an old talk (Develop conf 2012) but still relevant.
Many thanks to @juulcat for videoing the talk and writing up the transcript.
Just looked up how to do callbacks in C++ and YOU CAN'T (unless you write a bunch of templates and wrappers yourself).
When you pass a pointer to non-static member function, yopu need to handle the class pointer yourself. This is like the simplest thing, why can't C++ have that?
Love how the ISO standard website just tells you "Don't". What a joke.
Cross-platform, cross-language development is quite tedious... 🙃
You need to wait for builds to finish, then test on three different OS with different ways to load things.
At least with a Windows machine, you get a Linux environment via WSL2 for free, although it doesn't launch via dotnet run.
And finally you also need access to macOS somehow.
also, now with #gpt4o, latency is going to be critical if you’re doing streaming audio/video, so #python may start looking less appealing. what’s the new #LLM language? #rust? #go? #cpp? #fortran?
I've been helping to investigate a few LLVM and Rust bugs recently, and I keep running into pet peeves with how these bugs are reported, so I'm going to put together some #RulesForBugFiling
I don't want to discourage anyone from filing a bug, please do! But... be aware with how you represent the issue that you're seeing.
I also know that there are folks on here who are vastly more knowledgeable than I am, so feel free to suggest corrections, perhaps by filing some sort of report...
If you're going to claim something is a security issue, please explain what the attacker has gained by exploiting the bug. That is, what they can now do they couldn't before.
All this time I've been using the return value of snprintf as the number of characters actually written, when it's in fact the number of characters that would be written if the max size passed in were large enough.
In fact: "If the resulting string would be longer than n-1 characters, the remaining characters are discarded and not stored, but counted for the value returned by the function."
After 10 years of commercial experience in #cpp I think I’m ready for a new chapter. I have played around with #rust#golang#zig and #clojure but most job offers that I see are for people with at least X years of commercial experience in this exact languages. Do you have any hints how to approach this? I would think that my previous experience as a #software engineer would matter. Especially since I do not expect to move to another senior role, I’m checking junior positions too. #jobsearch
