I think all groups engage in in group preference. If you look at businesses run by Indians in the US, they clearly favor hiring Indians, you see the same with other groups. Same with various East Asians, Jewish people etc. It isn't jus

Trump is wrecking the US at the behest of Putin, directly or indirectly doesn't really matter. Hence he didn't put tariffs on Russia.

It means like king/queen/emperor, you wouldn't use it for an elected official, so here it is more sarcastic because Trump is acting like he is an emperor.

Yes I found CPP AMP really interesting, but since it only ran on Windows..never used it for anything.

1. who says it hasn't? 2. most of the vul code is C, which is obviously much harder to harden, and the Rust Evangelism Strike Force loves to pretend that C++ is the same as C, so no matter the improvements to C++, they will just

Interesting, for all the winging about C or C++ this shows most of these apply to all languages, and the ones that relate to C or C++ are actually pretty easy to prevent in C++(less so in C) by enabling hardening modes and using smart point

Oh that explains why the tariffs are focused on China.. Oh wait, that is what Biden did. Trump? Yeah, no, he is just a moron, and prefers to tariff our allies, which means eventually we don't have allies, which makes your war against C

You don't really need to use sfinae anymore, concepts are cleaner and easier to follow, also this library appears to use concepts

What is the point of making JS go faster? It is already fast enough even on older computers for the stuff it is designed for, making crappy UI.

It is using c++ 26 features, so of course it looks slightly alien, nobody uses it yet.

Those thin soled shoes are hell for hiking, I did 1700 miles in a pair on the PCT, by 25-30 miles in a day my feed were screaming in pain. Had insanely thick callouses on my feet(it split on my heel and I could see at least 1/2 inch of

If you judge them in person, I think redwood easily wins, and CA has two giant versions(coastal redwood and sequoia). Also Douglass fir is nearly as large & long lived as redwood, tho less impressive in person.

I had hoped the GPU API would go away, and the entire thing would become fully programmable, but so far we just keep using these shitty APIs and horrible shader languages. Personally I would like to use the same language I write the applica

A few years ago I compared them, it was not a microbenchmark, but a real application. There were a few million(almost entirely uncontended) exclusive locks being taken on startup, SRWLock was consistently faster, though the difference was n

by Wumpnot 1y ago
In some rare cases you can get an exclusive lock when you asked for a shared lock, most code won't care and will still work correctly, but sometimes people do weird shit that they probably should have used a different construct for, an

There is no reflection in this example, this is easily replicated in C++

SRWLock perf is slightly better than Window WaitOnAddress stuff, and works on older versions of windows.

That example looks easy enough to replicate in C++ with consteval + template, basically the same except a few minor syntax changes.

by Wumpnot 1y ago
It just looks like C++ templates with a slightly different syntax ..

Can't really blame MS for saying ..just use C++.. they aren't exactly wrong.

by Wumpnot 1y ago
From a safety perspective they aren't very close, there is a reason that all these CVE bugs are C code.

by Wumpnot 1y ago
As C++ is a completely separate language from C, this has no relevance to C++.

Smart decision by Intel for once, they aren't the market leader anymore and need to follow AMD on this. If they had gone down the 256 bit max route I suspect it would have gotten very little traction

What is unsafe about writing some code? I don't get this.. also this is like an anime character...wha..?

Also arrests are going to be targeted at people selling more so than using, so it isn't the correct metric to begin with.

No address space does not mean you have memory, you can reserve gigabytes of address space and your process will still show nothing allocated until you commit it.
