Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    In the specific use case of kernel programming, maybe. But the Standard Template Library is awesome.

    they dumped everything in the languaga, at least samething they needed to have right, it's otherwise statistically impossible

    The STD is maybe the only good thing C++ has over C, and even that is awful compared to other language’s standard libraries.

    I can’t name another good thing C++ has. Maybe templates. C++’s reliance on inheritance for polymorphism is awful (should’ve gone with interfaces/traits).

    Not to mention the mess with all the different types of constructors that must always be implemented.

    It’s just a bunch of bad design choices added on top of an old outdated language.

    Are you high? I was praising the STL, you know, the template library?
