For those that live in some semblance of reality, I think many there's withdrawal going on.

Assuming arena-like behavior, the index will be constructed/provided by the arena itself, so the bounds check can be safely ellided by-construction. Reallocation cost of the entire arena could be expensive, but if that is a cost you'd want to ammortize down to a new allocation, the arena could be implemented as an extensible list of non-growable arenas: every time an arena is full, you append another. This can be an issue if you don't keep track of deletions/tombstones or can't afford a compaction step to keep memory usage down, but in practice having all of these requirements at once is not as common. | null | null | 41,797,776 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

41,801,519 | comment | spease | 2024-10-10T18:08:06 | null | > plenty of variants<p>Aaaand you’ve lost me.<p>I don’t want to waste my time either setting up multiple linters or having to drill down into the pros and cons of each. If the C++ community cannot even reach a consensus on which linter it endorses, I imagine it can’t reach a consensus on what it lints, which involves even more decisions.<p>Secondly, both times I’ve tried to roll out or use a linter, I’ve encountered passive or active resistance from the other developers on the team.<p>This resistance went deeper than the linter. On one team they didn’t want to use new language constructs from the last decade, on the other team they explicitly complained about me doing things differently than 15 years ago. In both cases they rejected what I understood to be the core C++ guidelines in favor of writing their own codebase-specific coding guidelines so they could pick and choose the constructs they understood rather than trying to adhere to what might be idiomatic for a particular edition.<p>Unless something is 100% endorsed by the C++ community, it’s absolutely not something that I’m even going to try to champion. I’ve already been flat-out told “no one cares about your opinion” trying to explain how type-safety in C++ can improve readability in code reviews, which I thought was completely noncontroversial.<p>To your second point, the point of linters is to guide code to be more idiomatic; it’s not an issue of language design, but of educating humans in mostly non-functional readability and best practices. | null | null | 41,799,889 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

That's probably compounded by the amount of bureaucracy one needs to wade through to do anything, and the overall 'old school' thinking of folks.<p>Generalizing(perhaps unfairly), the Portuguese seem to look fondly at the rear view mirror, but more progressive ideas are not viewed in the same light.<p>You would probably see more people staying if they had a space for their ideas, and a living wage. | null | null | 41,800,205 | 41,799,016 | null | [

41,801,527 | comment | jandrewrogers | 2024-10-10T18:08:35 | null | The implementations of this type of thing in Rust I've seen just use "unsafe" everywhere. Even in strict C++ it is tricky to express the dynamic resolution of pointer type correctly. Type punning is a bad idea but there also weren't many alternatives so that was the idiom everyone used for a long time. Bugs do occur due to this, so the admonition against type punning has a purpose. It can be done without strict aliasing violations in C++, but the methods were a bit arcane until quite recently.<p>These scenarios cause other problems for Rust e.g. DMA hardware tacitly holds an invisible mutable reference to objects, but most developers never have to deal with cases like this. C++ provides some tools to annotate the code so that the compiler understands it cannot see all references to an object or that the lifetime is ambiguous.<p>This type of code is not common but high-performance storage engines are kind of a perfect storm of architectural requirements that break the core Rust invariants. | null | null | 41,800,456 | 41,757,701 | null | null | null | null |

The very point of iterators us to proceed by one element, avoiding intermediate copies of collections.<p>One case where the for-loop would be much more efficient is a simple transformation like incrementing each element of an array, or adding two arrays element-wise. A serious C compiler could unroll such a loop into several vector instructions which work on several elements at once. Maybe even LLVM can recognize something like that in Go code. | null | null | 41,801,345 | 41,769,275 | null | null | null | null |

41,801,558 | comment | jerf | 2024-10-10T18:11:39 | null | That's why I specified the code. If you're writing .Map().Map().Map().Map(), you are usually getting a lot of intermediate arrays.<p>If you have a .Collect() call, you're in the deforestation branch. This has its own issues with stressing the inliner (turning simple, direct for loops over large collections into traversals that include several indirect method calls per item in addition to the payload is pretty easy), but that's still generally better than stressing the RAM.<p>Rust's map doesn't operate on arrays at all from what I can see but operates on iterators directly. This is good and generally more correct. However there's a lot of languages that don't support that. Rust is generally also going to be more reliable about compiling it all away than a lot of other languages where it will be really easy to spill over what the inliner can handle. Those long compile times in Rust do have their benefits.<p>There's also languages that sort of split the difference, e.g., it is not that difficult in Python to use itertools and generators to correctly write something that will not generate a lot of intermediate arrays, <i>but</i> it is also easy to write a series of calls and list comprehensions to write otherwise equivalent code that <i>will</i> create a lot of intermediate arrays.<p>I expect as we continue to build new languages over time they're going to all look like Rust here. It's pretty obvious that conceiving of loops as iteration over some sequence is the way to go. However, that is a result that we got to precisely because of our experiences with a lot of languages that don't support it as well, or support it inconsistently, or as is actually quite common, the language nominally supports it but the ecosystem tends to assume concrete values a lot more often than it should, and all these languages are still around.<p>Writing in this style <i>correctly</i> in imperative code is more difficult than a lot of people jumping up and down about how we should rewrite all our loops as maps and filters tend to account for. It can be done, but it's often harder than it looks, in at least one of the writing and the performance if not both, and the harder it is, the more the costs stack up on the costs side, and the harder the costs/benefits analysis becomes. And I still don't like how it refactors in most cases. | null | null | 41,801,345 | 41,769,275 | null | null | null | null |

41,801,560 | comment | marcusverus | 2024-10-10T18:11:43 | null | > So far, government attempts to incentivize childbearing have failed to bring fertility rates back to replacement levels. Future government policy, regardless of its ambition, will not stave off depopulation.<p>I find this to be amusing, because as far as I can tell government policies are a major cause of depopulation in the first place.<p>Women don't want to have children because having children is no longer a net positive. Having children is no longer a net positive because they are not relied upon in old age--the government will support you with medicare, medicaid, etc. If women felt that having children was a requirement to be taken care of in old age, they'd go right back to having four kids each.<p>On the bright side, this problem seems likely (in the absence of extreme levels of immigration) to solve itself naturally. As the population curve inverts further, we'll have fewer resources to take care of our elders, and young women will realize that having a few kids (who can support them later) is vastly preferable to the alternative of spending their old age in squalor--just as it used to be. | null | null | 41,798,726 | 41,798,726 | null | [

41,801,564 | comment | bokohut | 2024-10-10T18:12:06 | null | I began rock carving a few years ago from zero prior experience of any kind. I have been finding Native American and Paleo era rock relics in and around my house for over a decade now, I have hundreds of items and it has inspired me deeply. One day it hit me broadside that these early humans were using only what they had to survive and here I am picking up rocks carved by people many thousands of years old that look the same as the day they were lost. I have written countless lines of code over the decades and much of that is still running to this day in past founded entities however nothing I have created prior will outlast my rock carvings.<p>I find the carving experience like a drug. I'm "isolated" from the external senses in wearing ear protection, eye protection, and a HEPA filter breather from the silica. In my mind I am carving away in isolation to make some shape that is whatever I set out to create via my planning and selected rock target. Instead of a keyboard which I use to make computers do whatever I want I instead have hammers, chisels, and power tools to shape a rock as I see fit. Every rock I have carved will still be the same tomorrow, next year, next century, and every coming millennium.<p>Stay Healthy! | null | null | 41,756,978 | 41,756,978 | null | null | null | null |

Even for the Republican party she’s a weirdo and she’s only able to win due to the “unique” demographics of her district. She’s unlikely to be able to win a statewide race anywhere, and Senators in general tend to be less radical.<p>Not that it makes her insanity any less insane… | null | null | 41,801,502 | 41,801,271 | null | [
