Speaker here, hope you enjoy the talk. I also gave an updated version of the talk at embo++ with some small updates and fixes to some code examples, not sure if that will be on you…

This popped up on youtube today, it's a Livestream with 24k live viewers, claiming to be a Linux Foundation Livestream that gives free bitcoin to people who send them some first.

This pops up again from time to time, I think what people should take away from this is that garbage collection is not just what you see in Java and other high level languages. The…

I think the Rust standard library is actually a liability in this case, not an advantage. The rust stdlib will essentially be an extra dependency and also the rust standard library…

Hi, the reason for using C99 is that it is fully compatible with other languages. If you write a library in Rust you might be tempted to use Rust only feature which will then make …

Thanks a lot for your feedback. I decided to remove that since I think you are right about indicating personal preference. I do not want this article to be a list of preferences bu…

Hi, I mention in the article that "It is easier in general for a C++ user to use a C library than it is for a C user to use a C++ library." which is where the advice comes from.

As a good resource for learning C I would recommend Casey Muratori's tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3ntGDm6hOs&list=PLEMXAbCVnm... If you are interested in learning mo…

Hi, thanks for your feedback. I am the original author. Regarding prefixes, I advice that you start by writing the library in C and then wrap it in C++ for a variety of reasons tha…

Hi, I am the author of the article. Regarding RAII, what I mention in the article is that it is ok to provide RAII wrappers as long as you also provide C++ wrappers for the non-RAI…
