snowAbstraction

Why would I choose this over http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/ or https://bitbucket.org/blaze-lib/blaze/src/master/ ?

I am just curious.

I meant personally I am less sure about Julia, that my knowledge is less sure. I've neither used it myself nor spent a few hours browser project source code unlike most of other stuff I mentioned.

Since I am not finding what I am looking for in Go then maybe I should ought to try out Julia.

Thanks for the JuMP reference. That looks cool.

I've been learning a bit of Go and I like what I've understood so far but one thing that seems somewhat lacking in the Go Eco system is mathy projects. I know there are some but I couldn't find many that were both active and to my taste. I was looking to learn and hopefully contribute. I was mostly looking for something mature for either mathematical optimization (stuff like linear, quadratic or integer programming) and (non-DL) machine learning. For C++, Java, Scala, Python and Julia (less sure about this), there seems to be much more.

You can compare Go's gonum to Python's numpy. For Java's Weka, Scala's MLlib, Python's scikit-learn, C++'s Dlib to what Go is offering.

Maybe Go leans more on its C-interop for these sorts of things which is a bit like numpy.

Am I missing something? Will this change?

Are any odroid SBCs affected?

To what extend, is Swift being used for ML or DL by Google or others? Is it a new TensorFlow core? Or just just another binding?

* I think before 2015 some things were working better or faster in other IDEs.

* I am happy with with the big improvements in VS starting around 2015. But the fact, that the C++ support was so bad in earlier versions (even if it was better in some ways than other IDEs) that it makes me upset that people had to put up with inferior older versions for over decade.

* It was not my original point but yes MS does not follow the standard very well, at least before. I even found a compiler bug myself back in VS2015 (the last version I used before moving linux server dev.)

Maybe in some categories but when I think of Visual Studio for C++, MS didn't really try until a few years ago.

Exactly! If your and your family is flexible enough, then Nordics are great for families with young children.

So of these books are oldish (for software engineering) and I don't count that against them. But I would like to know for each what more recent books (or even blogs) would succinctly fill in gaps in development since their publication.

Anyone?

Sorry I wasn't clear and the connection is not clear. The connection is only that Pony is as far I know a less common language that implements a unique set of somewhat similar features so it should be feasible for V to be built. I was thinking that not only can Google create Go or Mozilla create Rust but smaller groups or maybe an individual can create an useful programming language.

Writing this caused me to look at [1] to see if I was completely off. I do see some similarities but also a big difference, at this point of time, in terms of Pony's greater professionalism and claim's to rigour.

We'll see but anyhow it seems that some people like the language's features. Pony exists so why not this?

I think the intention is to mark this story as a duplicate of

For me I guess, it depends how many such abbreviations one must learn. 100 fine. 1000 too many for me.

Why not leverage LLVM for doing stuff with SIMD?

Will the output to readable C always be available in the future?

Anyone know about any C++ projects/tools that can help enforce vectorization?

Of course, you could create a benchmark test that detects a performance regression, but I am hoping for something more sophisticated like tagging a scope to indicate that it should result in a certain group of AVX instructions.

I agree with you except that there is sizable chunk of back-end code that is using C++ or at least calling it.

For some areas within algebraic geometry I think other CAS's work better than Mathematica and have functionality that it lacks. For example, in the past I used https://www.singular.uni-kl.de/. It has been too long since I studied such things so I cannot give any specific examples.

Two years ago, I bought a ASUS ZENBOOK UX305FA and it is fanless and works well under Linux. Maybe there is some newer similar model.

I really wonder what the C++ community will think of execution policies in 5 years. Using them seems to be interesting step up from coding your low level parallel algorithms and instead using standard C++ algoritms with an execution policy to build your algorithm.

But are they an abstraction that will be useful in the future? Worth it for the language?

The 60% rate is, if I understand correctly, the combined affect of the LLC paying its fee and taxes and then poster paying personal income tax.

You get the 60% rate since you are paying the employer's taxes and your income taxes, right?

I guess if you paid yourself less (by effectively working less) that rate would come down a lot since both the employer's taxes and income taxes are rather progressive.

In case, what do you say about returning a class instance from a function in Java? Joking aside, the feature gives you both a value type and documents the intent of function intentionally possibly not returning a value.

I would be really interested if you can shed a little light on the following related questions:

1. Do you see the bloat even if you don't use post C++11 features but compile using the C++17 standard?

2. Do you think it is mostly the compiler that is causing the bloat alone? Or is it stuff from the standard library header files that some how gets linked in (and are not used or needed by your software)?

A bit misleading to announce this only to state near the bottom of the announcement that, "Some major libraries still don’t compile correctly with MSVC".

I did something similar twice. Once when I was younger where I traveled and lived in China and only did a little English teaching. And again 5 years ago, I took math classes in a new city where I moved to for my wife's job until her position was more certain and then I got regular employment.

I've changed jobs and interviewed some afterwards: some employers make a big deal (negative) about these gaps. While others seem mildly impressed that I did something somewhat different. They tend to pay less attention now that a few years have passed. I think it is also because such gaps are more common these days and because losing employees to other companies is probably bigger problem than sabbaticals.

Nice List. You missed Itiviti which has its office in the same building as Cinnober.

Just some kind of capped option.

What is the advantage of this over, say, http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_65_1/doc/html/boost_asio.htm... ?

Networking is a main sell of boost::asio but it does general async event loops, not only for networking. And boost::asio was upgraded for C++11 years ago.

Some people are already trying and succeeding. And since a lot of these signals already incorporated into the market prices of various financial instruments, you can apply deep learning techniques to these available prices (and time series) to get similar results, to make buy and sell decisions/algorithms.

I remember an old project to use the Eclipse CDT C++ support via vim instead of in the Eclipse IDE: http://eclim.org/index.html

I think there is/was some attempt to do it for emacs as well.
