Gregory's ServerAfter many years working in Rust, I've decided to migrate my projects to C++, to benefit from a more mature, stable language. More details about that on my blog: https://raphlinus.github.io/rust/2023/04/01/rust-to-cpp.html

@raph *Chef's kiss  @raph It takes a lot of courage, but congrats on making this move, I'm sure it'll pay off in the future! 🦀🐟 @raph Good idea but I'm afraid you're too late to the party, us C++ programmers have already been replaced wholesale by ChatGPT!   @raph After so much development of different kinds of type checkers, no one has built one that doesn't just get in the way. Have you considered the one true language, Forth? @raph You had me for far longer than I would like to admit, but this was it: > Here, it is clear that Rust is held back by its commitment to not break existing code (enacted by the edition mechanism), while C++ is free to implement backwards compatibility breaking changes in each new version. and as soon as I remembered https://thephd.dev/your-c-compiler-and-standard-library-will-not-help-you I knew you weren't this stupid :)   @raph you got me there for a second. The post is also very well written. I expect a lot of people to take it seriously and use it to to defend their own views 😅 @raph For anyone who didn't realise, this is an April Fool's post. (In my timezone, this was posted at "Apr 02, 2023, 00:20".) There is no exact translation of the word "petty" to german, but if I were to explain the meaning of it to someone, I would simply show them this article. Good one Raph ^ ^ |
@raph oh I see what you did there 😀
