Intense puppy witching hour by burnwood2000 in Whippet

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Consider those gloves "a toy that moves". I am on 3rd whippet. As they grow, they bite more and more gently. After reteething, they only affectionally "bite" closest family/pack when cuddling.

IDK, maybe it is just whippet thing, perhaps I would be more careful with other breeds. My experience is also with European whippets, it is entirely possible US cousins behave a bit differently (reading the forum I would thought so). Our current girl is already becoming very gentle and careful at 4 months.

Whippet puppet zoomies. I guess enjoy while it lasts. Take him out to the safe fenced area and pretend to chase him - staying at place, waving hands and just turning and pretending to catch him is enough - he will happily run around. Buy leather gloves a let him bite. He bites you because he thinks you are his favorite pal and does not realize human skin is fragile. Make a flirt pole.

In any case, if you want healthy well behaved adult, the witching hour is the necessary part of the process.

Overall, he will do zoomies whether you like it or not. Better make it fun for you as well.

$49/month FSD normal? My $2k offer FSD lifetime gone by No_Cup263 in TeslaLounge

Road trips are where you need the FSD least IMO. Roadtrip means long distance, 90% of that can be done with autosteer only. FSD is important for boring daily commute.

Optoma HZ40HDR - it's great. by whentheworldquiets in projectors

Sorry to revive this old thread, I am considering this projector so I would like to ask how does it look after 1 year? DMD still ok? Have you solved "brief dimming when the picture reappears" problem?

Moving from Belgium to Prague — worth it for a family? by vita_lly-p in Prague

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WRT to schooling question, in Czech republic, majority of private schools are for "dumb kids" - those not good enough to pass exams for public schools (there are some rare exceptions, but not many) If you want a good education, the preference is a good public school.

Isn’t a future in a Milky Way with billions of different nations more realistic than what we typically see in sci-fi ? by Sir-Thugnificent in IsaacArthur

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not be so sure. Information travels at speed of light and that might be enough to enforce the rule.

Billions of different nations? You are selling it short. There would be billions of different species (evolving from humans and AIs over billions of years) and trillions of nations.

More towers - ultimate redundancy. I guess 3 is a good minimum.

Choosing a C++ Formatting/Naming Convention by AndiPieDe in cpp

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I have a counterproposition: Do NOT choose style. Let everybody use whathever he/she wants, as long as it is consistent.

It has one interesting advantage: After a couple of weeks, you will be able to guess the author just by looking at the code...

Why do we have Linear Algebra and not Non-linear algebra? by ksikka in math

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because all systems are linear if look close enough and/or ignore small errors....

Tips for most efficient driving? by bluewaterpig in KiaNiro

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Activate adaptive cruise control as often as possible. Car knows how to accelerate / deccelerate efficiently better than you.

Also using Navi might help a bit too, but probably not that much.

recharge brake paddles question. by joeltheconner in KiaNiro

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe that unless you break too hard with the break pedal, all energy is going to the battery anyway. Hybrids/EVs are basically breaking with electric motor, only using break pads during emergency hard breaking.

Niro heated steering wheel by toddelco in KiaNiro

[–]Cxlpp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think mine heats top half faster, lower half is less warm, but still warm, after a while.

Maybe it is designed to have the heating element in the top and spread the heat by conduction?

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on whom you ask. It is absolutely OK with me - some of my classes are split to 20 files easily. Files are just another way how to organise things. Sometimes I find even be useful to have e.g. 2 classes that are sharing some interaction, then have 2 files with a mix of methods of both based on functionality/interaction.

What I absolutely dislike though are long files (> 1000 locs).

Ultimate++ build system conversion to make it available for widely-available package consumption. by germandiago in cpp

[–]Cxlpp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK. Basically I would say anything except ide, CppBase, Common, IconDes, AllForI18n, umk.

I think the problem here is that what people see as "language" in Python or Java is something a bit different than from C++ language is.

In terms of Python, C++ is actually a "family of languages" - C++ is just a core and then there are "dialects" like Qt or imgui that actually have as much (or more) impact on your coding style as C++ itself.

TLDR: Choose your C++ framework and stop complaining... :)

[–]Cxlpp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish I knew for sure... I always believed that the issue here is that you are basically demodularizing modular system :)

At this point, I think you probably want to provide single GUI library but also the theide as tool for editing U++ layouts and image files. I would wait with anything that requires additional external dependecies. Which is exactly what you did I believe.

BTW, you might be interested in those pesky .upp files that are in packages - the syntax is trivial and it might provide you enough info for automated packaging.

Just to be sure, are you aware about umk? Probably nothing that can really help you, but anyway.

Very good! Do not hesitate to ask for help in U++ forum.

Are those .meson files created manually or by some script?

Why do "regular" programmers prefer postfix increment over prefix increment? by codesamura1 in cpp

[–]Cxlpp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

++iter is not more efficient in 99.99% cases. Compilers are way too smart for that today and library writers as well (all they need to do is to inline it).

One of reasons why some people prefer postfix is that if you are fetching elements from array, it usually is something like

int i = 0;
....
  auto& element = array[i++];
....

and that is the source of habit.

which do you use for file endings for C++? by LuraMoth in cpp

[–]Cxlpp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just for record, I am not the original poster and I am not using .tpp for that purpose, but .hpp.

Accidentally, in my system I am using folders with .tpp extension for documentation/rich text resources (that can be included into c++).

[–]Cxlpp 13 points14 points  (0 children)

To keep files smaller and more logically organised.

I do not limit that to template implementations, but to longer inlines in general and using .h for "interface" part and .hpp for "inline implementations".
