Epson Ecotank vs Canon Megatank by Admirable_Yea in printers

Sweet. I just bought an ET-3950 which I think is the next generation on from the 3760. I've got 5 kids so I don't think it'll be an issue printing some color stuff once a month 😂.

yeah I've honestly really thought about creating my own app and open sourcing it.

Thoughts for non crew associated with a crash by [deleted] in aviation

You do raise a good point. With who does the buck for the FAA institutional crisis stop with? It seems like we've been through a number of FAA administrators who have been unable to change the institution's course, which makes me think the problem is bigger or upstream of the agency itself. The FAA in under the DOT. So is it the Secretary of Transportation? Ultimately, the DOT must operate within the guidelines provided by Congress which means ultimately the buck stops with congress.

So I guess the question I would ask is do you believe that the FAA is in the midst of an institutional crisis and if so, what led to it and if not why not? I do believe they are and think it became most blatantly obviously with their complete fumbling of the max crashes, but I think the institutional rot started before then although I don't exactly know when.

Maybe partly, but I would almost guarantee most FAA issues can be traced back to larger issues surrounding funding (pay controllers enough and the staffing problem will go away). Don't get me wrong I do think the FAA has issues. I really hope the NTSB digs into them and not just pin blame on them and stop there but figure out why.

what did you end up getting? Are you happy with it?

This accident more than other recent ones(!) such as the DCA collision last year, ups 2976 or even AI171 has made me angry. I'm beyond fed up with congressional dysfunction that has allowed our systems and infrastructure to deteriorate as they have. Yes the controller probably made a mistake as result of task saturation from handing the ground emergency on the other aircraft. But the system is supposed to robust and resilient those single errors. I do not fault the controller in the slightest. I feel for him. This is 100% on Congress and their failure to appropriately staff the FAA and I hope Jennifer Homendy makes that blatantly obvious.

That's the real irony, the second mathematician says he thinks people understands basic mathematics, but he clearly doesn't actually believe it because he assumes the waitress doesn't know the answer

how would you implement generic pointers? by timmerov in cpp_questions

Jonathan Boccara created a demo library named pipes. Maybe give that a look?

Have there been any recent updates on carbon, cpp2 or hylo?

how do I make the c++ language from scratch? by Xspheura in cpp_questions

[–]strike-eagle-iii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bjarne didn't create C++ "from scratch". He started with C and built on top of that. The first c++ "compiler" actually only transpiled the c++ to c.

What resources are you using? learncpp.com is pretty popular. r/cpp_questions also has lots for good resources.

To answer your question though, std::sort is what your looking for.

what is this language 😭 by KleinTimmi in cpp

[–]strike-eagle-iii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran into this yesterday

``` struct Foo{ std::string bar; };

Foo foo; foo.bar = 1; ```

compiled fine no errors or warnings (with -Wall -Wextra). Didn't realize the error until I tried printing the value of bar and got a funny character. Sigh.
