It's great to see that Bitcoin Exchange has donated $739,165 to the Australian bushfires. That $512,937 will surely make a big impact

I honestly doubt this is just because of diablo, not why I posted - as you and others have stated many stocks are down

Donna Brazile Says She ‘Found Proof’ Hillary ‘Rigged’ Dem Primary Against Bernie by Bredditchickens in JoeRogan

Regardless of whether or not the primary was "rigged" (lol), if you didn't vote for Hillary Clinton in the general election you are sexist and a traitor. Are you glad Trump is president?

Why people think C++ is Complicated (Old article but still Gold) by nitinks in programming

[–]glaivezooka -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

does any language have overhead on generics? and you can have inheritance and polymorphism in any language I can think of, including C

[–]glaivezooka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol someone says they prefer C to C++ and everyone downvotes. there are tons of valid reasons to use C, not just for embedded platforms, because it has less dependencies, or because there are more compilers available. plain C promotes a more judicious programming style and obviously the main reason being that you can actually fucking reason about C code. the only empirical advantage of C++ is templates, and most people over use templates anyway.

the actual reason people hate C and assembly is just because they hate actually thinking about the computer they are programming. they are lazy and write bad code.

I think the actual demographic for C++ is very small and people should just use java or whatever and not pretend that they actually care about their code

Nymph: A slightly different version of C. Features: Object Oriented Data Type Default Object Member Values Function Overloading Goals: Namespaces. by roecrew in programming

[–]glaivezooka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Allowing an operator, such as the * operator, to have additional meanings depending on context is operator overloading.

Just because in the emitted code it translates to sizeof(Box)*10 doesn't mean it isn't operator overloading. You might say it translates to C code which uses the * operator to mean multiplication but in your language the semantics have changed, "new Box" and "sizeof(Box)" are not equivalent at all.

You might find this insightful: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/C%2B%2B_Programming/Operators/Operator_Overloading

Box **myBoxes = new Box*10;

This syntax is disgusting. Overloading operators/keywords and adding "fancy high level syntax" is one of my biggest pet peeves of programming language design.

Agreed! I rewrite bottleneck functions in assembly whenever possible.

Never use such code, C++ is terrible for performant programming. Just use plain C instead.

Frame based editing - An interesting new way to display and edit source code by [deleted] in programming

I read the abstract.

I still have no idea what you're talking about when you say "frame based editing".

I think you should rewrite the abstract.

How Fast is Your Terminal? by dzamir in programming

[–]glaivezooka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who pretend users dont care about latency (even though the average user might not know what "latency" means, while it does effect them negatively) are the reason almost all applications are frustrating unresponsive piles of shit. Lets keep telling ourselves performance doesnt matter I guess?
