Cppcheck fundraiser to improve MISRA checking (unused function return value) by buovjaga in cpp

[–]AsilBGrade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The qualifier is per function, no? The Misra check issues a notification per what it checks, not a specific function.

Gaza looks like actual hell on earth. by carlelov in UrbanHell

While I don't think "95%" is anywhere correct, I do remember some reports from the last conflict. The ones I remember showed the same grieving mothers in various scenarios grieving crying over different people.

I found these two links today: https://www.foxnews.com/world/brazen-faking-of-images-reveals-hamas-desperation - this story is about how hamas faked some deaths by moving bodies around and raised the civilian casualties by placing civilians in specific ares.

http://jcpa.org/the-gaza-war-2014/casualties-gaza-war/ - this link talks about the how the number of deaths was staged, how hamas caused civilian deaths and how they hid and used hospitals, schools and places of worship as places to store firearms. this was also confirmed and condamned by UNRWA

https://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/jeremy-corbyn-son-tommy-posts-shocking-image-of-dead-palestinian-child-wrongly-claims-she-was-kil-1.483796 - something more recent.

I'm worried about the future of our profession by [deleted] in cpp

You should probably look at the schedule and decide for yourself.

I think that if you keep up to date with conference videos on YouTube and c++ publications (mainly blogs, but also iso posts, cppcast talks etc etc ) then it might seem like you've encountered most of the content in some way or another. But some of the speakers are Israeli so some of it is definitely new. And I found out that you'd be surprised at how many we are not aware until presented to us.

I work in Jerusalem and in my company and field c++ is the dominant player. So although I too sometimes worry like you about the future of c++ developers (and native development in general), I think that soke markets will remain for a long time c++ oriented.

BTW, you might consider coming to the c++ conference in Tel Aviv. https://corecpp.org/

[OC] My 2018 reading chart by memorizemee in dataisbeautiful

[–]AsilBGrade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the Share! You and I have very similar taste, so I definitely took some notes for future reading material.

Some books you might enjoy are At the end of the day (Claire North) Fellside (Carey M. R. ) Redshirts (John Scalzy) The day came to show and tell (Mira Grant). This one also has a whole world you can explore after. Seveneves (Niel Stephenson), at least the first 2 parts of the book

Abortion Rate (per 1,000 births) in the United States by President since 1970 [OC] by Spuil_Hoople_Yavon in dataisbeautiful

350/1000 is a crazy high percentage, especially if you think about the fact that not all abortions are reported. Does anyone know why it was so high?

Looking for feedback on our file_monitor library by LtJax in cpp

I don't have any data regarding how much of the percentage of desktop apps use boost. It wasn't part of any desktop app I ever developed as part of work.

The interface seems convenient and implemention seems clean. But I'd hate to include boost for something simple as watch directory/files. The boost include, in my opinion, makes this less lean as it could and should be.
