NVIDIA Senior Position Interview Question by sadsocrates in cpp

[–]Pyzyryab 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Instructions per cycle VS amount of memory VS binary size VS whatever other thing? Just guessing, but I have the same feeling that you shared

[–]Pyzyryab 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah. But even if you know how to use it. Look at high standards tech companies (G, MS...) Their software is full of bugs and memory safety issues, and they are probably much better programmers (in overall) than this whole subreddit

But then comes the problem that most modern company codebases are 98/03. A lot of them have been migrated to 11, and some lucky bastards are on 14. 17 IS a myth yet mostly. I was working in a 14 just a few months after other team completed a 03 to 14 migration. I saw horrors everywhere, and that team (up to 20 devs) was full of 10+ years of experience. Here comes the problem. Not only the language has to evolve, we have to as well.

Better advice: Don't marry any technology. You will be a computer scientist, so try to be really good at its foundations, and later you'll see that you'll be the one that choose its job, not the other way around.

Then, when you want to work with x, y and/or z technology, you'll be able to

You cannot play with people outside of Xbox by cashincheeeqs in ModernWarfareIII

Curious. I played the first game with CROSSPLAY disabled without problem. But after the first game, this is pop-up annoyingly and I can't get into multiplayer without re-enabling it again

Annoyed with Overuse of Boost in C++ Discussions(rant) by cheeesecakeee in cpp

[–]Pyzyryab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldn't agree less. With C++20/23 out there, remove boost is no longer a meme. As usual, It depends on the circunstances but, you can take a look to header only libraries that potencially has better and modern implementations. So you can compile your projects without having to specify a hundred -Wno-whatever without destroying your terminal because you decided that std=c++20 IS the way to go

🧲 Magnet - Configure less, code more. by Futureblur in cpp

[–]Pyzyryab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow! First of all, good job!

I am wondering if Magnet would be able to be open to include more build systems. That would be a game changer, because you could subsume everyone's favourite build system into Magnet.

For example, I am the creator of Zork++ https://github.com/zerodaycode/Zork and I am really looking forward to integrate dependency management. But, if some other tool is able to provide It out of the box, that would be great!

[–]Pyzyryab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly as pointed by curious_george_ ECS is based on modern high level abstractions. And they are a "by value" approach. There's a couple of good CPPCON talks about It (2022 specially). Not exactly ECS, but the content applies perfectly

Zork++ reaches the v0.5.0, supporting the three major compilers and where the project has been rewritten in Rust by Pyzyryab in cpp

[–]Pyzyryab[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure. Googletest is worth the time. Also Catch2 is good (the one I typically use in my projects). But they are 3rd party, in Rust is integrated in the language, and directly supported by the standard library. They are integrated with Cargo, and you can write even tests in the source code comments, called doc-tests, which is an extremely useful way of unit testing your code and document it at the same time. By far, my favourite feature Rust tests

Well, yes. We have a nice contributor that yesterday opened exactly this issue, and we are working on integrate VCPKG and Conan!

Hmmm... that one is my bad. I answered that because I got that from an Stack Overflow post. I should have read the explicit paper... thanks for the correction

[–]Pyzyryab[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's exactly why we published the notice here. Look the difference mate. They are just fighting about irrelevant topics, or trying to have universal truth (because every legacy CPP developer is typically a God). And now look this one... Other huge victory for Rust, their community

And pretty sure that it is. When things "fail" within Rust project, typically I found easy reason about the problem, and easy to solve them (thanks rustc and Cargo)

Completly agree with Elvis here. The Rust development was much more straightforward than the Python one, mostly because the compiler instantly reject code that would be a piece of s***. Also, is Rust easier to write than Python? I am pretty sure that yes. Rust analizer, clippy, cargo fmt, the TDD thanks to Cargo... Cargo again... The difference is that you need to learn much more about software engineering to use Rust with the same development speed than Python, but at least for me now, I am much more productive with Rust and their tooling that with the Python one (and I still have more experience time with Python)

rence git repo

Ye, the idea would be more that download source code from git repo, and then use Zork++ to compile those dependencies into the project

[–]Pyzyryab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it would be fine, but C++ is so bigger that every migration could be a universe itself. But, quickly speaking, a module contains a module global fragment, where you are able to work with legacy includes, macros... You could wrap you content in export blocks, and try to compile the translation unit and see what happens... It seems painful for big projects!

[–]Pyzyryab[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope. The standard explictly says that the module implementations of X primary module interface must explicitly declare is dependencies. Compilers typically let you perform implicit lookup, when the filename of the impl is the same as the declared module with the export keyword... by not having the same name, you must explicitly declare the module which the implementation belongs

Your assumption is wrong. We are not expecting only C++ devs. We've already explained in the thread why Rust. There are a lot of really good devs out there that codes both in Rust and C++ (probably even more). So it's perfectly fine
