That is what makes it Enterprise-grade!

Historical revisionism at work:

The astroid shot first.

I wouldn’t worry about it given that Rust has issues binding to C++.

You should seriously consider using Odin if you happen to be writing code on a Wednesday and you want additional divine blessing.

…for they shall be forced to use Visual Basic.

Linux user has been here.

How can you tell?

*sniff* Still smells like smug.

Thus demonstrating that when you combine XML and C++, you truly get the best of both worlds!

In fairness, this game uses fabulous pixel art! Hardly any games do that.

But it wasn’t monochrome and depressing!

I don’t know; their comment seemed pretty much the same throughout…

So… all that is NOT False either, I presume?

which is NOT False…

You really didn’t need this; I would have just assumed that you were speaking the truth.

Or, in other words, around 244 kibiInternets.

So in other words your clothes are very organized?

Shirt of Theseus?

Boy does it seem like this author is trying to push something. I wonder if…

To learn more, attend my upcoming CEC course January 27-31: Expert C Techniques to Master Bare-Metal Programming. You’ll discover how to master one of C’s most powerful tools—function pointers—and use them to design flexible, efficient systems. From building cooperative schedulers and command parsers to creating configurable, reusable code, you’ll gain hands-on insights that can transform your approach to embedded programming.

…yep, sounds about right.

That makes sense. I had thought that you were implying that the quantum nature of the randomly generated numbers helped specifically with quantum computer simulations, but based on your reply you clearly just meant that you were using it as a multi-purpose RNG that is free of unwanted correlations between the randomly generated bits.

Out of curiosity, have you found that the card works as well as advertised? I ask because it seems to me that any imprecision in the design and/or manufacture of the card could introduce systematic errors in the quantum measurements that would result in correlations in the sampled bits, so I am curious if you have been able to verify that is not something to be concerned about.

I would not recommend this as an exercise for a beginner, but RPython is a subset of Python with a C backend; it is used as the basis of PyPy (an implementation of Python), so it may be possible to use it to implement the low-level parts which then can be used to bootstrap a full Python virtual machine.

Yes, and that’s basically what the CPython interpreter does when you call a Python script. It sometimes even leaves the machine code laying in your filesystem, with the extension .pyc . This is the byte code (aka machine code) for CPython’s implementation of the Python Virtual Machine (PVM).

This is incorrect; the term “machine code” refers to code that can be run on a real machine, not to code that requires a virtual machine.

The context you are missing is that, for a lot of people, OOP was taught as the be-all and end-all of abstraction. I personally have seen some of my less experienced colleagues start to write code to solve a problem and immediately reach for OOP over and over again, even when this made things a lot messier (which ultimately I had to deal with…), because that is how they were told at one point was the “correct” way to do it, so I can completely sympathize with anti-OOP sentiment. On the other hand, I am not personally vehemently anti-OOP because I think that (as you have correctly observed) OOP is a perfectly fine pattern when it fits, and arguably the root problem that my colleagues had was not so much that they used OOP everywhere but that there was a tendency to not think through the consequences of their design choices.
