    This makes me think you haven't spent time in any of these cities.

    Why do you show this to me??? Don't you think I know it? I don't know what you are upset by this, cppreference is great and it explains the problem you had. I blamed it on STL (and…

    In any case, nothing I hadn't already known. I at least showed you cppreference so you can look up the data structures and their guarantees. True, but my problem was neither proper…

    A rule of thumb is, well, an estimation. 1 = 1 isn't an estimation, it's just, well, the same number.

    are you an AI programmed to be annoying? I gave you great information on how to make your queues thread safe again. I don't know where this expectation comes from that you can repl…

    To which I'm going to answer, one of the bugs I hit was due to unexpected invalidation of a std::deque iterator. This isn't a problem with the standard library because a std::deque…

    Right. That's, well, not a rule of thumb. Asking how much of a bottle of water is, well, water, and someone says "well, a good rule of thumb is that it's all water", is just an ans…

    I'm not trying to prove anything, I'm asking why you "had concurrency problems from using the STL" when the STL doesn't have anything to do with concurrency.

    Java should have significantly better tools for trying to understand a program than cobol.

    Saying, well a rule of thumb is, well, 100 billion bytes is a 100 gigabytes, is well, not a rule of thumb. It is, well, just the common definition.

    You said you had concurrency problems with the STL, but none of it has any intersection with concurrency, that is left to the users. There are no expectations there unless you were…

    You don't get to reply and tell me I'm lying about something then get upset when I reply back. You can always actually explain in depth why I'm wrong.

    If you aren't, wouldn't that imply that the concurrency problems are with you and not with the standard library?

    I don't know if that's, well, a rule of thumb, it might be, well, straight multiplication.

    In fact, in one of these projects I was pushed to use STL initially. I'm now working on getting rid of the last of them because we have had concurrency bugs Which part of the STL a…

    It's not a parallel at all, the two things have nothing to do with each other. One means nothing and gives no new information, the other is about the complexity of getting familiar…

    > I don't think you did, I think you just said it has downsides over and over. Show evidence of your claim. That would be proving a negative, which is another logical fallacy. Plea…

    How about you do the following two Google (or AI) searches Why don't you do it so you can make your own argument. Why does it seem like the majority of core infrastructure, Why are…

    I have given a variety of arguments why I think the C++ RAII specifically has downsides. I don't think you did, I think you just said it has downsides over and over. Once again you…

    It might seem obvious if you don't think about it much, but one is a pragmatic breakdown from experience and one just says "adding cpus won't work forever if there is some part whe…

    It's your claim that destructors are harmful so the burden of proof is on you. People use them because by default values have scope based lifetimes and destructors unify the handli…

    Why take this to a place of insults and divisive antagonizing?
