Reflection is going to be a game-changer for C++. Finally!

Indeed. There seems to be quite the lack of understanding what the mentioned concepts actually are.

You should probably look up what a sum type is, it has nothing to do with summations. Your example doesn't contain a sum type. A C++ example:

    std:variant<int,std::string> sum_type_instance = 5;

If I understand you correctly, then no, aphantasia is not the inability to induce sensory hallucinations. "Typical" visualizing is different from actually seeing/..., see other comments in this thread for descriptions. Not sure what you mean by conceptualized, but most people do "see" images, but thet don't "actually see" them. There is something between aphantasia and hyperphantasia, and it's where moet people are actually.

Hmmm, my experience is vastly different. I wanted to make a graph using 5 cols of data, first col is x labels, then data for 4 lines. The cols are not next to each-other in the sheet. Then add linear fits trough that. Then give specific html colors (woops no impossible) custom colors and line types to the original lines and the fitted lines. It's possible but the ui is terrible. Changing line type is simply bugged half of the time.

Don't know about other languages but the python bindings are pretty ok to use imo. You can also stay in qml longer than you'd think, especially with all the tooling kde provides.

As an aphant. I kinda think it made me better at physics/mathematics. I also really like not having traumatizing images stick around.

If I could choose I wouldn't get mental imagery, I'd rather like to be non-aphant for taste. I do have "sound imaging" btw. It's great to see more research into this, it can e.g. lead to teaching/learning techniques that are more tailored to how ones brain works.

Sounds like hyperphantasia, so also a bit rare and on the complete opposite side of the spectrum ;) Most people fall in between the two extremes.

Not OP but aphant: the information is there, we just can't "see" it. So we can know how to navigate because the map is stored, it's just that we can't access it in a visual way. Note that for me the access is less detailed and also fades quicker.

As for maths: I actually have a physics PhD and am now a C++ dev. I couldn't mentally integrate anything complex. Never needed to, someone invented paper at some point ;) I'm a decent programmer I'd say, it seems to be common among aphants to be good at abstract reasoning, which I think really helps with coming up with good programming solutions to concrete problems.

The sparkles are real, so they don't count. And yes, most people, when they count sheep, do this literally, i.e. imagine a bunch of sheep and count them. I also can't do that, never could. Realized my brain was different when I knew I couldn't do the memory palace thing, even though I'm among the smarter part of the population. /r/aphantasia has more info and other aphants ;)

Interesting. As an aphant I can perhaps do what you describe, what I can absolutely not do is e.g. calculate moves with my eyes closed. I can calculate a couple of moves in, but then it gets hard, and I'm not sure if this is something solveable with practice or just a hard stop.

Similarly, the top chess players can remember a lot of the matches they played, and others they studied. This is not something my brain is able to do, period. Similar to how I have less personal memories than a lot of other people.

Both

I guess that means not using cmake but using sln and vcxproj and friends, my experience with those was that it's pretty terrible for anything bigger than simple dummy projects.

Try making a graph in excel online and then come back to tell us everything needs to move to the cloud asap.

Agreed, at this point a lot of websites have become laggy human-powered movies.

I wonder if they ever considered using Qt. Not sure what the status of that is for rust projects. Sounds like it does the same as what Z is doing, mapping user interaction to os bindings and rendering the UI using the GPU.

OP explicitly states he doesn't want to add the ticket to a google account. Fair to assume they wouldn't want apple either.

Rotating an image and moving some text apparently

Maybe this is a US vs Europe thing? I'm in the latter region, where I am there's a ceiling for dev salaries, virtually the only way to break through is to become a manager. It's also very uncommon to share the companies success.

Isn't it a bit of a stretch from going from your personal experiences to generalization to "much of burnout is"?

Fairly certain it wasn't the case for me anyway, I can see what caused me burning out, and can also see what I did to help me get out + prevent it from happening again.

For me as a non-native English speaker, "authorize" and "authenticate" are always pretty unclear as to what exactly they mean in a security context. I don't use it enough for it to stick. I'll actually try to remember "login" and "permissions" as shorthand for getting a feel of what they are. And yes, I've never dug deep in security code/systems, but doesn't that make this even more of a problem instead of less. I should be able to understand what these concepts by themselves want to achieve without having a deep understanding of the technical details or coming into contact with it on a regular basis.

BricsCAD for instance is less than that, 1600 one-time fee. And it's good.

The numbers in the post are 2.2 and 3.6 kW. Even 2.2kW would cover virtually all of my use.

I don't want to buy a battery for the purpose because it doesn't make sense economically. If I could get a car with this functionality though for a similar price as cars without it, that would be a big bonus.

From the article:

However, this lack of access to space should come to an end soon. The ESA has shipped stages of the first flight hardware for the Ariane 6 rocket to its French Guiana spaceport. While the ESA has not set a specific launch date, it is working toward a window that extends from June 15 through July 31.

And wow, lots of hate for Europe in this thread. Salty much

Pretty cool that some relatively simple qml allows those powerful interactions, like displaying all the windows in a grid in 20 lines of code.

From the article:

> Tesla is probably at greatest risk here, having recently ditched physical stalks that instead move the turn signal functions to haptic buttons on the steering wheel.

Huh I didn't see the powder part. If the voids are filled with powder anyway, is there a point in not making them solid? I don't see how you would go about emptying that?

The hollow struts are interesting, I've worked with lattices but that's not something I saw before. I guess they are stronger than solid struts with a smaller diameter so they have the same amount of material.

Except if part of the wall goes flying off you mean?

How many cars had their door fall off? More general, how many of those 40k were caused by defects in the car?
