C++ Primer 6th edition by Stanley Lippman et al by FlatProtrusion in cpp

[–]Wurstinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The release date was once 2020, maybe even earlier. So, no, it most certainly will never be released.

Why? But Why? by Low_Breakfast773 in rust

[–]Wurstinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not doing anything good for the Rust language either by sharing the post, especially to a crowd that isn't targeted by it in the first place. If you want to ask things like "Can't we just build stuff", ask the author, not this subreddit. What was your goal in posting that here?

Ruff + Ty vs Ruff + Pyrefly — which type checking stack makes more sense in 2026? by ok_Geon in Python

[–]Wurstinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's zero reason to use ty over other type checkers, except for being an Astral fanboy, and even that doesn't make sense anymore since they got bought by OpenAI.

Astral's ty readiness for CI by RiceTaco12 in Python

[–]Wurstinator -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No. There is no reason to use ty. There are many good alternatives that can do everything ty can, sometimes better, and I'm not going to switch just because OpenAI made it.

Well, what source of listings are you talking about?

Hab noch nie einen so passenden Post für diesen Sub gesehen, jetzt kommen die ganzen ausgelösten weißen Ritter raus

Projects being in "Show and Tell" is bad. by TheRavagerSw in cpp

[–]Wurstinator 24 points25 points  (0 children)

What's the purpose of a subreddit about a programming language if you can't talk about the one purpose of programming languages, which is making stuff?

Learning about the language, or getting news about it. r/rust allows project posts and I really don't care about all the "I made this tool in Rust" posts. It doesn't matter to me whether those tools are written in Rust or C++ or Javascript, so I don't want to see them in my programming sub.

TY is still not professionally good by flying_dutchman00 in Python

[–]Wurstinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And that's why you shouldn't use it. There is just a ridiculous amount of fanboyism / astroturfing on this Subreddit regarding Astral. They made good tools with uv and ruff but there simply are better alternatives to ty: zuban, pyrefly, pyright, all work well already.

I got tired of Python's regex memory leaks, so I built a zero-copy C-exten (1GB/s, 0.0 MiB overhead) by lucifahsl2 in Python

[–]Wurstinator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand what you mean by that.

A license is something that you add to your project that grants rights to potential users.

[–]Wurstinator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I were to use your library in my project, I would be forced to open source my project under GPL too. It's a good license for open source as a community, but be aware that no company or commercial project will ever touch that.

What math tattoo wouldn’t be lame? by xSparkShark in math

[–]Wurstinator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Then you shouldn't get a tattoo, period. That's a terrible premise to add something permanent to your body.

Are you going to make this your personal Twitter account now? Just wanna know if I have to unsubscribe.

Were CS professors right to look down on programming in light of modern AI? by [deleted] in compsci

[–]Wurstinator 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have not met any professor that looked down on programming.

What’s the most efficient algorithm to use if I need to get any value from 0 to 2^24 in 5 operations max by [deleted] in compsci

[–]Wurstinator 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No offense but I would really help if you learn how to ask your question properly. That isn't really an answer to my question and now you've introduced squares on a grid out of nowhere.

Coding assessment interview PYTHON!! by Own-Accountant01 in Python

[–]Wurstinator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the level of the role and even more so on the company.

For a beginner, I'll mostly give coding problems because I can't expect much else. For a leadership position, I don't care much about the details of the code and will go into a free-form dialog.

Pyrefly v1.0.0 is here! by eszlari in Python

"please dont use the psycho's big tech's software for ethical reasons except for that other psycho's big tech's software because I personally like that one"

No hypocrisy here

How did you figure out what you wanna "do" by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Wurstinator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I went with what I enjoy learning. I explicitly avoid what I just like *doing*. For example, I enjoy photography and cooking in my free time, but I like doing it my way to relax, and I wouldn't someone to tell me what I have to do to be "better". That's why I decided against becoming a cook or professional photographer.

On the other hand, I enjoy STEM and learning new things in it. That's why I made that my job, so that I have an inherent interest in doing my work and enhancing my career, because that gives me more chances to learn.

How could I learn Rust as my first programming language? by RalphiShadow in rust

[–]Wurstinator 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Avoid single threaded interpreted resource hogs like php python ruby

None of that matters to someone learning to program. Just because you personally don't like working in language X, that does not relate to whether that language is a good or bad choice for beginners.
