Trump is wrecking the US at the behest of Putin, directly or indirectly doesn't really matter. Hence he didn't put tariffs on Russia.

1. who says it hasn't? 2. most of the vul code is C, which is obviously much harder to harden, and the Rust Evangelism Strike Force loves to pretend that C++ is the same as C, so n…

Interesting, for all the winging about C or C++ this shows most of these apply to all languages, and the ones that relate to C or C++ are actually pretty easy to prevent in C++(les…

Oh that explains why the tariffs are focused on China.. Oh wait, that is what Biden did. Trump? Yeah, no, he is just a moron, and prefers to tariff our allies, which means eventual…

You don't really need to use sfinae anymore, concepts are cleaner and easier to follow, also this library appears to use concepts

What is the point of making JS go faster? It is already fast enough even on older computers for the stuff it is designed for, making crappy UI.

It is using c++ 26 features, so of course it looks slightly alien, nobody uses it yet.

Those thin soled shoes are hell for hiking, I did 1700 miles in a pair on the PCT, by 25-30 miles in a day my feed were screaming in pain. Had insanely thick callouses on my feet(i…

If you judge them in person, I think redwood easily wins, and CA has two giant versions(coastal redwood and sequoia). Also Douglass fir is nearly as large & long lived as redwood, …

I had hoped the GPU API would go away, and the entire thing would become fully programmable, but so far we just keep using these shitty APIs and horrible shader languages. Personal…

A few years ago I compared them, it was not a microbenchmark, but a real application. There were a few million(almost entirely uncontended) exclusive locks being taken on startup, …

Comment #43453096
In some rare cases you can get an exclusive lock when you asked for a shared lock, most code won't care and will still work correctly, but sometimes people do weird shit that they …

There is no reflection in this example, this is easily replicated in C++

SRWLock perf is slightly better than Window WaitOnAddress stuff, and works on older versions of windows.

That example looks easy enough to replicate in C++ with consteval + template, basically the same except a few minor syntax changes.

It just looks like C++ templates with a slightly different syntax ..

From a safety perspective they aren't very close, there is a reason that all these CVE bugs are C code.

As C++ is a completely separate language from C, this has no relevance to C++.
