If he doesn't use C++ features then there's no point of bothering with C++ at all. C++ is kinda but not really a superset of C. There are some nice features that are lacking in C++. The fixie example wants to make the comparison t

Roman letters works somewhat with English because they are both phonetic. Japanese is phonetic too, they have an entire different hiragana alphanet with all the sounds of their language. There is no word in Japanese that you cannot sound ou

The issue is that its not theirs and that is exactly the problem. You can't just use China's writing system and try to make it fit to your language. Japan might have a high literacy rate but that is despite their horrible system a

First one to snitch gets the best deal. Question is do you honestly think Trump wouldn't do something like that?. I don't need Epstein to tell me what type of person Trump is. Or should I stop believing my lying eyes?.

I guess that is implied since these things always happen this way, its not like book burners are just having a nice campfire and the books they dislike just happen to be close by.

I agree which is why we need to get all these evangelical nuts actively trying to destroy the world so that Jesus come back out of power. No more death cults!.

The author has books on Geometric Algebra so it makes no sense to assume that he is going against GA as a whole.

In order to make the race interesting it needs to have a balance between the two, make it too short and the horses will always win, make it too long and the humans will always win.

Honestly ALL diagrams are a dead end, any system where there is no single source of truth will be a big hassle to maintain and therefore will not be updated which makes the whole thing useless. The only which I can see working as it has alr

The problem is omniscience. With that, not only do you need a villain to take the blame, you also need a special ability called free-will that gets around the omniscience issue. Otherwise the only conclusion is that your god is both good an

So much time spent on creating many different web frameworks to try and replicate the snapiness of native applications when the solution was to make native applications use web-tech so that both are equally slow. Mission accomplished! Geniu

I know nothing about rust but if you are struggling against the borrow checker because you want to implement something like linked lists or anything it doesn't want you the obvious solution is to allocate all your memory upfront and cr

I got a chuckle out of having the 'expert' be Buffet and the subject be finance. I don't think there is a worse example of a subject that lacks first principles and where vocabulary is used to obfuscate and give it a veneer o

It doesn't really make sense to compare it to something in the U.S where both parties fight over meaningless stuff like who can go into which bathrooms and which books you can burn. In Mexico the local government is the problem since t

Its useful for small trivia answers, stuff you might ask google about and read a short paragraph about it as long as it the answer seems reasonable enough. For coding I have long given up on it. I only see it useful for people that want to

Its great to have more Vulkan resources but unfortunately this one too suffers from the same problem as every other resource I've found on getting something on the screen with Vulkan. They all introduce another layer of abstraction on

Unreal was designed for the Unreal games, the others I have no clue but I doubt Unity has had any guiding game from my experience using it. Unity was built with the unity-store as its guide imho.

When designing anything like a language or library you always create the use cases first and then work backwards. Any game engine not created side by side with a game will be crap. Any 'cool feature' programming language without a

MBAs really is just a cult or I guess based on the amount of people it can be considered a religion?. They got a bunch of little equations they threat as universal laws of science all in an effort to 'maximize' profits in the shor

TLDR, it was cannons. Improvements in cannons so they wouldn't explode on you led to advanced metallurgy required for things like engines. Everything else about the right society, the right conditions, the right time seems unnecessary

Its easy to see how people would become used to expect everything to be slow. Python is the most popular programming langauge both in schools and in general. I can't think of a slower language. Then all your IPC is done through json as

Was a lot of the functionality of Quake done in QuakeC or was that scripting language added for the sole purpose of allowing for mods to the game?. I think scripting languages are a very bad idea for the core functionality of a game and I s

I can see the use of image-gen integrated into photoshop and krita. Codepilot and other code specific llms have not been useful at all. That said I do find stuff like ChatGPT and Gemini useful enough to always be running a client I can send

What law?, if there is a law you have to follow it, it being a law by definition forces you to follow it. Whether anything is done to those that do not follow it is another question. The issue is that there is absolutely no legal reason to

What was the logic behind Sony banning the purchase of games?, was Sony compelled by U.S law?. Was this done as a way to try and try to win brownie points and free pr from those reporting on it?. I can understand valve enforcing the discoun

The 'clear reason no to trust their output' the author uses as an argument against it, is the reason all want it. People know not to trust llms completely but right now these 'news' institutions are trusted too much when

What I was initially imagining was a complete lack on sensory information and was trying to image what type of mind would emerge from that. Inside a sensory deprivation chamber I have experienced losing your sense of time, space has no mean

I like terminals as much as the next guy but I think terminals are obsolete. We just keep writing the same thing with the same capabilities in different languages, very little if anything is added to it. Projects such as nushell aim to add
