You go to the gym to lift. Not to talk. You may talk shortly if it is related to something you need to continue your workout. Apart from that you do not talk. End of story.

I used to authoritatively state rules that existed in my own head. I no longer do this.

I always liked busting through the little social candy shell in the gym. Offering to let people work in on a scarce piece of equipment could lead to chit-chatting about whatever. It's nice! When you have about 3 minutes to rest in between sets there's time to let someone else work and talk a bit.

Varies wildly. Some people are there with this attitude. For others it's more of a social time with occasional breaks to do a workout set.

Yes! Looking back there were lots of people who chatted in between sets. I just never realized

Used this kind of font for output on the 320x200 screen all of the time in the late 80s while coding 68k asm on the Atari St

In the early 1990s, C++ had not yet been standardized by ISO, so your argument doesn’t apply to that period.


Let's see how this unwrap()s in production scnr


Oh come on, that was funny. It also highlights a problem with the way people write rust. If your app panics it has a bug. People throw panics in cases that can absolutely happen, a file isn't there or fails to parse, some set of inputs is mutually inconsistent these are things for error checking. Even if the correct way to handle an error you detect is to stop the app, do that instead of panicking. Panics are for things that should be impossible. Ideally they even get optimized out.


hmm how can I reuse this useful Go library in python... Oh I can't.. hmm and how can I reuse this useful java library in php ? Oh I can't. Oh and which of the programming languages you mentioned can and do use C libraries? All of them.

Reminds me of that coworker who thought that OpenCV was basically written in python.


I'm not claiming that there is no C or C++ out there. But it's such a nit pick when for most developers, no, their day-to-day work absolutely does not involve the creation of object files.

Sure, akshuwally, there are still C and C++ devs out there. Meanwhile a friend has just embarked upon a career as a pro COBOL developer. What of it?

Edit: Also, in the spirit of akshewally, I have just googled up this monster! My word, PHP and Java AND XML... it's like the unholy trinity of HackerNewsbane... https://php-java-bridge.sourceforge.net/pjb/


Looks genuinely useful. Bookmarking.


NativeAOT compiled C# library can create C compatible exports which can be used with any language that supports C libraries.


does your gtx 1060 help in any way for the NAS use case?


If you're running a media server (like Plex or Jellyfin) you can do hardware accelerated transcoding on the GPU.


>BUT there's another piece that makes or breaks these tools... whether they can >build a community around them and stick around for years...

Why ? who cares? if the tool solves the problem, you need a community maintain it. And that's it.


Oh, let me guess... The protests were organized by groups that get their funding from the NED or other Western sponsored NGOs ? (Asking for a friend)


No evidence of any of that. I don’t see how it’s incredible to believe students will flip out if you ban social media.

(Though the meme of all protests and civil discontent in Asia being the product of Western influence is a popular one among right-wing circles.)


> the meme of all protests and civil discontent in Asia being the product of Western influence is a popular one among right-wing circles

I listen to enough "right-wing circles" to end up getting people tarnishing me as one just for standing up for them (despite all kinds of progressive views) and I frankly don't know what you're talking about. My friends that tend to get interpreted as "right-coded" have historically been supportive of protest movements in Taiwan and Hong Kong.


In Asia.


I always wanted to check out https://qskinny.github.io/ it looks compelling and sticks to c++


vcpkg it


You can open an Issue on that on the repo (https://github.com/ZigRazor/CXXStateTree/issues) so we can track these changes.

Another idea is to create a Python binding with a release of a package
