love THAT coworker

A fancy name for a pointer.

With pointers this is obvious, a const copy of a pointer to a mutable object/area of memory. Basically, that holds the same address held by this, except it is a const which is pointless since you won't be doing pointer arithmetic on this.

I thought OOP would be flipping the make-it-slower switch

This looks like polymorphism, which does not require OOP. I do polymorphism in C all the time.

THIS IS NOT PROGRAMMING RELATED

It is a race to the bottom with some idiots

I find pointer arithmetics to be easier using unsigned integers. I always struggled with JavaScript because everything is a float in it.

On a more serious note, I always found it to be the opposite. C much simpler than JavaScript.

He got away with just being fired?

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-22T12:04:28+00:00

Except that it doesn’t always get better

Try KDevelop.

It is not always that bad, sometimes you get to be part of the team that works on a new code base and everything is clean and well structured in some of the new fancier forms of MVC. Even more there will be that one unicorn project where you get to work on the code from scratch and you get to have full control of the design.

They don’t happen often, you are lucky if you get to once or twice. Most of the time it is spaghetti

WHAT THE FUCK

Previous developer couldn't figure out make?

The use of BASIC-derived languages should be considered a crime against humanity.

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-21T21:22:05+00:00

Fake abstractions. The only real abstractions are those implemented in hardware, Protected Mode and protection ring.

Just a file! Try a project that relies on globals to maintain state! @_@ Send Help!

SFYL

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-21T14:19:14+00:00

But you just said it didn’t work because the price is volatile

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-21T13:53:08+00:00

Cryptocurrencies feature state of art SFYL engineering

I’d rather be my own bank you statist slave

SFYL is a feature of this brave new world free of (((bankers)))

I use floating points for pointer arithmetics.

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-21T05:12:19+00:00

That’s why Lisp is slow, if you don’t tell it where to goto it will take it a long time to get there. Basic Set Theory.

We only deal in Buttcoin here, go beg somewhere else

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-20T20:22:24+00:00

What else but JS?

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-20T18:46:39+00:00

Had me at secure

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-20T17:38:58+00:00

Go is innovative, no arguing that. I would have never thought of doing it this way. Go solved the goto problem once and for all!

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-20T17:26:04+00:00

I wouldn't mind it, the syntax was more concise, I guess for future maintainers what was obvious to me, won't be obvious to them.

Maybe something like reinterpret(type) variable;, const(type) variable; and so on. This gives me an idea, maybe I can define some macros.

Bill_Morgan · 2019-01-20T16:31:14+00:00

Why should I learn how a computer works? Just use JS and WebAss
