No, it does not have to be async. My impressions from using Squeak regarding this matter: 1. You can send any message to any object. In case the object does not have a suitable handler, you will get an exception: <object> does not und

winlister for me. It is like process explorer for windows. When you develop something window related and you have no idea where is a window -- winlister can tell you whether it is hidden, or maybe have left-top out of the monitor

Question: how relevant is this with the serverless? Don't cloud providers provide also these kind of tools?

This is a good advice, but I feel to add a few points of mine: 1. the author says "premature optmization", and it has the right context, however I prefer to use "premature abstraction" or even "speculative generaliz

Could not disagree more. The author most probably freed the company from its dysfunctional stagnation due to some political issue. It is thanks to his ignorance that he resolved an issue, something that had to be done. In general, staying o

It is mainly a matter of decision making. In my case, no refactoring was ever sanctioned by itself. Devs were having been allowed to refactor anything on a small scale and always backed up by a feature request. So when the desire to somehow

Yes most of these things are terrible

Yeah, I just tried to be on the more "permissive" side of things. Though per-library errno is being used (zeromq, libuv).

It is unpopular opinion, but not all code can be cost-effectively validated by unittests at all. I have been maintaining codebases where the customer would come and change his requirements on a weekly basis. While I could set up unittests t

There is a lot of advice here to do incremental rewrites, refactoring, unittesting, functional/system testing etc. Undoubtfuly it is all mature and correct advise. However, I feel it is all one-sided and I ought to provide some counter

People usually tend to accept that efforts to build a products are oftentimes underestimated, but somehow accepting the same kind of underestimation is hard. So what? Even if the rewrite takes more time and money it can still be successful

There are numerous reasons to write in C, apart from caring so much. Using strtok() is not that bad after all because its a simple function after all.

Nice article, the problem though, is that TDD'ing might already be over-engineering in the first place.

Seems like a decent alternative to C# on dotnet. Its a pity it feels second-class.

They have originated from C++, fine, but it is a different language, different ecosystem, different community, different ideology and -- different idioms

by dkrikun 8y ago
People mostly keep saying that: 1. C++ has at least everything C got, and "other features" so it cannot be worse. 2. C++ is safer than C. Regarding 1.: a. C99 and C++11 have diverged. For example, `struct xx x = {0}` has different

There are certain widely accepted norms on how to handle errors in C. It is best to restrain ourselves to "prior art" so that your code is immediately comfortable to read and use for a seasoned C dev. To list a few: return codes,

Writing C++ like Java (or any other language for that matter) won't help anyone. The code will turn out non-idiomatic and weird for any couple of C++-eyeballs.
25.
by dkrikun 8y ago
C++ is definitely not a subset and its not just from purely linguistic considerations. Also, given that zeromq is a community-driven project, requiring the contributors to use C++ but avoid 50% of features is weird and non-idiomatic at best
