The 718 is also 4 cylinders and a great deal of fun

Yes, more liquidity is always good, and it’s a cascading effect of everyone competing to be a little more efficient than the next guy.

I think the correct move would be to enforce wage parity for the H1Bs rather than throwing out the baby with the bath water. I don’t want to lose out on international talent for the sake of protecting employment for people whose only qualification is where their mother gave birth.

MIPS? Or is there something newer

Nah I think most people could make something like this in a weekend

Note that diffsitter isn’t abandoned or anything. I took a year off working and just started a new job so I’ve been busy. I’ve got a laundry list of stuff I want to do with this project that will get done (at some point)

I don’t think that’s true. C++ just has a lot of baggage to deal with and people are doing the best they can with some ridiculous constraints. The sanitizers and things like clang-tidy, and better analysis in compilers seem to be really well received.

FAANG, hedge funds/HFT, game studios

I don’t think people want that as standard. The whole point of using C++ tends to be because you can do whatever you need to for the sake of performance. The language is also heavily driven by firms that need extreme performance (because otherwise why not use a higher level language)

There are knobs like stdlib assertions and ubsan, but that’s opt-in because there’s a cost to it. Part of it is also the commitment to backwards compatibility and code that compiled before should generally compile now (though there are exceptions to that unofficial rule).

Gambling is much less regulated than the markets.
