These boomers blame everyone but themselves: the committee, the designers, and the implementers. Klaus Iglberger insists the language isn't the problem, we "just" need to teach the users better. Obviously, with more teaching, the safety problems and complexity problems will go away.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vN0U4P4qmRYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjO76ygwGdAHe has such inane suggestions as removing all "raw" or plain for loops in favor of std::algorithm functions and ranges. These approaches are absolute ass for writing, reading, maintaining, and debugging. Trivial examples are easily noted as being absurdly longer, and they scale horrifically with complexity (not that they look a whole lot better in Rust). This is first and foremost an issue with the semantics and syntax of the language. Secondly, these approaches still don't help with lifetime issues. Klaus, and so many others in this space, are obsessed with blaming raw pointers. Raw pointers are a single symptom of the issue - and frankly, it's not a good argument for them either. He has no valid advice for dealing with older libraries which you must use which use raw pointers and other unsafe constructs (let alone POSIX APIs). I can only believe that based on Klaus's suggestions that he just wants to sell more books and training sessions.If you watch these conference videos from people like Klaus, Jon Kalb, and Bjarne, it becomes painfully obvious that they either have their heads buried in the sand, or that they live in an alternate reality. Who the fuck thinks that it's not a language problem that competent use requires hundreds to thousands of hours of training? This isn't even getting into all the retarded fuck-ups of formal syntax and bad library designs that they love to hand-wave away, or the fact that implementations can't keep up with the half-baked designs that have been added since C++20.
>>107536600The way C and C++ do pointers and for loops is fundamentally defective.
>>107539278Nope. They do them the right way.
>>107540370Real for loops are loops over a range of numbers (or objects), like Fortran and Algol style loops. There are computers with instructions for that style of loop, that add a number to a register and compare to a limit, and if less than the limit, it branches back to repeat the loop. There is also the related instruction that loops a set number of times by decrementing a register and jumping back if not zero. The C "for loop" is actually just a while loop and C doesn't actually have for loops. Arrays should not decay to pointers and a pointer should be allowed to include whatever information is necessary to point to an object, and not be forced to be merely an address. This means pointers to arrays should be allowed to include the array bounds, pointers to a bit should be allowed to include the actual position of the bit too, so it works on computers that don't have bit addressing, and all other pointers should include whatever else is necessary. Look at how traditional languages like Lisp, Fortran, BASIC, Ada, Algol 60 and 68, Pascal, and PL/I do it. The designers of those languages are much smarter because they figured out the solution to that problem before it was a problem, by doing it right from the beginning. C is simply a case of ignoring the established wisdom just to be different, like trannies do.

GPT 5.2 scores 72% on GPDval which is an exhaustive test of how well AI handles complex tasks from 3200 different information jobs like typical office work. This is a threshold good enough for AI to begin replacing white collar workers.
>>107540121Due to AI or due to importing a bunch of poopskins combined with high interest rates?
>>107539953That's only because chatbots are fucking retarded and probably always will be.If they weren't, people would be replaced, and as they were being replaced, they would celebrate it on linkedin like it was a major cultural victory because they were told to.
>>107540133Not even joking it's hard to draw a distinction anymore in my perspective.As in like, the machines are at least as good as the human floor, or you could interpret it the other way, the floor is using AI to compensate for their own limits.I'm not sure if it's meaningful to draw a line between them, maybe, but right now it's kind of nebulous to me.
>>107540159There is no hard evidence right now that AI has put any kind of meaningful dent in employment (a CEO saying it is not hard evidence, when the incentive to lie about layoffs to prevent stock cratering is that high)

Recently I got the idea of finally building a real PC and it got me wondering which parts are actually worth getting new? I'm guessing hard disks and PSUs but it's not really based on anything
>>107536793cpus are worth getting used, same for ram (try to know its historic), cases & gpus. i woulndnt buy used storage for my main solution, but they are worth sometimes, specially if they are serving as secondary on your machine. id avoid mobo and psus, but it all depends; i think the consensus among some is that mobos last forever (like cpus) & that its the first thing to break among others.
>>107537595A mobo with only solid capacitors and a good amount of VRMs can last forever.Tantalum caps and superIO chips may still die randomly.
>>107536793Yeah, that's about right. U could maybe risk a bulk storage deal, but its risky af. Where I live, used HDD are more expensive than new large storage capacity drives (usd/TB). I'd call them idiots, but they sell so I guess I can't blame them.I'd toss a broad net for everything though. As you do your research you should be able to piece your DYI pc together. Also you often get very good deals on people selling a big bundle of parts. Extra cabling can often be really nice if you expect to be tinkering. I got so much now that I can sort mix things up a lot, which is very liberating.Also remember that you often very far with JUST a GPU upgrade on a PC platform. One thing I regret was not getting specialized part everytime i upgraded such that I would have ended up with parts that I could use in future stuff for homelab etc. If you're a poor, get a low power CPU for ur future homelab. Ur probably playing low performance games anyways.
Just buy a macbook and a console stupid fucking retard

Besides the trans memes, is Rust a good replacement for C++?>But transI don't care about pol shit if the tool is good.
If I mainly c system dev, then what’s the appeal for Rust if majority Rust code is webdev?
>>107538179>But trans>I don't care about pol shit if the tool is good.If it was good they wouldn't have to resort to faggotry as a marketing tool.
>>107538179>is Rust a good replacement for C++?it doesn't have inheritance or template programming, will make your life harder with cyclical data structures.The library ecosystem is also more limited. Gamedev is a famous example where C++ is just way more mature.On the other hand if you need multi-threading, want to escape from segfaults, need to model complicated systems (state machines, error handling) then Rust can shine.
>>107539613>>Says Rust is fine but not as elegant as CC is one of the least elegant languages. Rust is definitely more elegant than C.>this weird thing where they treat any criticism of the language as a personal attack.That's what C programmers are like and a lot of them only like C because they haven't tried any other languages. Most Rust programmers came from C and C++, so they have more C and C++ experience than most C programmers.
>>107540580>posix absolute genius unequalled by anyboy was in their turbo interfaces one can use to express everything they could ever dream ofYou have more brain damage than the C standard and POSIX.>c is very fucking powerful>unix is very fucking powerful>posix of all things is very fucking powerfulThey're not powerful at all. They are extremely weak and useless, and actually weaken everything built on top of them. That's why you need millions of lines of code on top of them to do anything and most of that code is about finding ways around the C and Unix brain damage.
Is the dark web overrated if you don't want to do anything illegal?
On the topic of Freedom Hosting, does anybody really believe it was run by one man and wasn't a honeypot? I find it hard to believe, given how many Tor hidden services were hosted on it for FREE, with as many DBs as you wanted and an FTP service, and the most you got in terms of restriction was a mild mannered warning on the homepage about not using too much disk space and bandwidth. Also, the only way to contact the owner was a link to a thread on Onionforum which had shut down a few years before Freedom Hosting finally went under.
>>107524769yes. stay away.
>>107524912Replies to this are insane. Little reminder that this guy is right about Tor, idk about his vpn rec. but the people shilling Tor are trying to deceive. Tor has been compromised for over a decade and just using it puts a huge target on your back.
>>107524769There is no dark web. Just shady sites that exist. It's not like there is a special part of the internet that just has all sorts of nefarious shit on it apart from the actual internet. It's the fucking internet. There's black jack and hookers, but also videos of cats.
>>107526757>, we're talking millions of images and videos produced by just the troons and furfags alone and i dont just mean drawn shit eitherI nearly started gagging on my toung after reading that. The underaged troons make it of themselves since they require validation from the pedos since the people in their lives refuse to give it to them.

Every PC, console and website is worse than it was 10 years ago.
>>107538351In regards to data collection, to play devils advocate, I don't see why we as a species shouldn't basically combine all our data.I would rather it all be more transparent and better understood by the common person, more public than privately traded, and other some such. But truly its hard for me to see it as purely negative when the few people in control, use their control to basically obsess over the public majority and appeal to them, regardless if that's for altruistic purposes or pure greed to get their dollars. Intentional or incidental it's a mix of both to the same end.
>>107541017>But truly its hard for me to see it as purely negative when the few people in control, use their control to basically obsess over the public majority and appeal to themThey're not appealing to the public majority though. They're making everything worse
>>107541035>They're making everything worseWhy do you think that is? I'm not sure.>They're not appealing to the public majority though.I'm not so sure. To me it kind of feels like the majority of people are basically subjugating the top's direction and this could be a factor in everything getting worse because the majority lack the ability to direct, think long term, What's your perspective on it?
