Actually I am using iMac 2015 late with Manjaro Linux it is working very good
Yeah, that's probably what I'd do if I had a macbook :D
Anonymous
the main reason for me it was beside that I liked Linux before, I bought iMac with low memory capacity only 254mb, and all apps take a lot of space on imac

+ if someone want to play with embedded it also quite hard on osx

I know, I just... don't really use desktops, therefore I said macbook

Monjaro is the grear distro, by the way. I was surpried to see its popularity on distrowatch

(You'd never have this trouble with windows ^_^)
I use Windows daily at my job and believe me it makes me more troubles then my home iMac Linux

Or is it just a pic from the internet?
for ex. when one plug in a phone to charge it a little bit I have last time on Win10 a pop up which I cann't close

The only thing I hate about windows, is uninstalling things

Or I always have a problem with removing directories due to file in use 😏 Have kind of magic tools for that but it is a big pain

And I think VisualStudio is not good tool for C++ programming

I have to use VS at my current job, but personally I prefer to use some puristic editors, write cmakes instead of generated vsbuild xmls and use cmake instead of vs compiler

vim is fine however I found that VisualStudio allow to make big mess in project and it is hard to configure vim now for good autocomplete
Alignant
I mean, it never deletes all the traces. You'd have to use third party soft for that

when sources are cross used from different directories/modules to compile another module

more C but C++ also

it is very hard to encourage architect to make a change even if you have a good arguments to do that, they still aware of changes

Lol

more C but C++ also
Do you use tmux and mplayer while coding? That looks so great lol

Does your softwar run on PC? Or do you have to debug it using gdb server?

Does your softwar run on PC? Or do you have to debug it using gdb server?
Originally it have to run hardware with MIPS/ARM and some more chips, for backward compatibility but we have a little bit strange configuration developing on VS and debug on VS and after all we check with gcc flags for some additional errors
Anonymous
that's like core code + simulator is used for debugging but when we make a delivery only core source code is cross compiled
Anonymous
and they believe that VS is most coherent with those platform depended compilers
Alignant
Most embedded guys use windows for some reason
Anonymous
what's the most strange belief for me
Alignant
VS is a great thing for a beginner
Alignant
But... you know the rest :D
Anonymous
Maybe yes, but I found one more problem with VS, for example when you start to develop in VS 2012 and then your company don't update compiler to the newest one
Anonymous
then you stick in old standard and compiler

I think C

but it is better to move finally to C++

It’s good but it’s not safe

emm, I never feel that I am good programmer I just solve problems :P

That's a guy

maybe give an example of bad habit?

when we want to pass a struct in C but we don't want to copy it
Anonymous
we pass it by pointer right? :D
Alignant
Consistency is more important than the right choice
Anonymous
so I found that some programmers try to make defensive programming and check null pointer inside the function
Alignant
You don't wanna know
Anonymous
but that quite big performance impact (was checked by my friend)
Anonymous
so at that point I think passing by reference is more safety in C++

Delphi xD

C++ is more advanced and you have to learn more abstract things there, but it always good to know the basics thats why I advice to start from C for better understanding what's going on

I'm 22 :D My dad had the old delphi book. I started learning it by myself when I was 12 or so :D

It's better to study the wrong language, than to spend a lot of time choosing

How is is_convertible implemented?
BinaryByter
the boost implementation is 400 LoC big so i'm kinda scared xD

Python is nice

You can use Python to prototype some things very fast

like math in crypto
