jank is C++ If you've wondered how much a solo dev can build for seamless C++ interop on a quarter, you're about to find out. In April, jank was unable to reach into C++ at all. Toward the end of this post, I'll show some real world examples of what works today. Before that, though, I want to say thank you for the sponsorship this quarter, not only by all of my individual Github sponsors, but also by Clojurists Together. I also want to say thank you to Vassil Vassilev and Lang Hames for buildin

I won’t talk much about D’s metaprogramming in this post as that topic basically requires its own dedicated feature list, but I still want to mention that D’s metaprogramming is world class - allowing a level of flexibility & modelling power that few statically compiled languages are able to rival.

C++ Seeding Surprises (2015)

news.ycombinator.com M.E. O'Neill 2025-10-24 07:11:40

Properly seeding random number generators doesn't always get the attention it deserves. Quite often, people do a terrible job, supplying low-quality seed data (such as the system time or process id) or combining multiple poor sources in a half-baked way. C++11 provides std::seed_seq as a way to encourage the use of better seeds, but if you haven't thought about what's really going on when you use it, you may be in for a few surprises. In contrast to C++11, some languages, such as popular script

7 Best Outdoor Lights (2025), Including Solar Lights

wired.com Simon Hill 2025-10-30 22:00:00

Here are a few things to keep in mind when you go shopping for outdoor lights. Power: For most outdoor lighting, you need to run a cable to a power outlet, so you will want an outdoor socket. If you don’t have an outdoor socket, it’s usually a pretty cheap and quick job for an electrician to install a weatherproof one. Just be aware that large power adapters and awkwardly shaped plugs will not fit in outdoor sockets, so you will likely also want some kind of weatherproof box. I like the large D
