> mcpp.toml ← project manifest It's a fatal flaw. A declarative language isn't powerful enough to be able to describe complexity of typical C++ project. That's why cmake language (…

Can I write a game using OpenGL in this language? Does its functional purity allow this?

Is it hand-written?

> influenced by Brutalism Actual brutalism is actually pretty. But what is today called modern architecture, is not brutalism, but a consequence of construction cost cuts.

> C++ is just fine No it isn't. Using undefined behavior for things which can be implementation-defined behavior instead is harmful. It creates more space for bugs and security vul…

A good example of C++ bizarre design decisions. The exact handing of float int conversions should use implementation-defined behavior instead, defining some cases to be UB just add…

They are widespread, but not among "normies", but professional programmers. That's what I call a failure, since they were initially designed to be used by non-programmers.

Yet another attempt to fix the problem with 14 competing standards by introducing one more standard. Now a C++ developer can face a problem, when he needs some thirdparty dependenc…

I generally don't think it's a good idea to develop a language for non-developers. It was tried before multiple times and the end goal has not been achieved. Sooner or later one re…

In case of such projects like LLVM C++ usage can be tolerated. But for new code or smaller codebases a better alternative should be considered. Also Fil-C can't be used for LLVM an…

The main problem of Fil-C or similar solutions is not that they provide absolute safety with no escape hatch (unlike languages with unsafe keyword). The problem is that they provid…

I am asking, because I doubt a single person can achieve this. It requires at least a team of several people.

Who is the author of this project? Is it a single person? A small team? A single person with LLMs?

Yet another prove of the idea that worse is better. First people use unsafe poorly-designed languages for writing critical software (already worse). Then someone invents a hack mak…

Looks nice for such wimpy hardware. But using 16-bit Z-buffer for 1-bit display seems to be an overkill. Sorting polygons works mostly fine if done right, especially if BSP tree is…

> Never null: it always holds a value, except in the moved-from state I am wondering why C++ can't implement "non-null" unique_ptr version in the same way? As I know, that the main…
