C++11 does do a lot for usability and readability, I'll grant you that.
Any comments on the primitive include system and macro hell? I don't mean that to sound baiting. You obviously know more about C++ than I do, so I'm wondering if they've done anything to improve those lately.
Side...
That sounds familiar...didn't Torvalds say something similar to that. Something like C > C++ because most C++ programmers suck(proud member reporting)?
Yeah, doing this without lambdas or even anonymous inner classes is pointless. I'm not going to create another function just to iterate over the vector inside the map. More localized clutter is better than disjointed clutter.
I'd almost prefer C...maybe. Would have to try it out first before...
Yeah, doesn't matter much. This stupid project I'm working on doesn't support C++0x(so no lambdas) nor C++11(so no range-based for loops).
I agree that duck typing can be weird in strong typed languages. In this context, eh, not so much. You know the container's type and you know that...
Yeah, think I complained about macros earlier. Want to read your code? TOO BAD! The amount of ifdefs needed just to get things to compile cross-platform is staggering.
Tenks, I would need a lambda function with the for_each, right?
Point taken, forgotten about for_each. In this case, no, because I want to iterate over the vector I have stashed in the value. But, that does potentially cut down on a considerable amount of clutter. My main problems with having to work in C++ again is readability and how much easier a lot of...
Yeah, so fuck C++. I love how this statement in C++
is basically this in python(and probably a plethora of other more modern languages):
And as a bonus, I get m_it->first and m_it->second unpacked for me too!
I know why C++ is still around, it takes forever to change anything, even if...
I think the 4 horsemen changes depending on which thread. Like, tanoomba, astro, and a_skeleton_03 are permanent members, but that 4th spot changes. Marvel thread? Blackyce. Politics thread doesn't count because you'd need like 400 horsemen.
What was your last interview like? Not to say that isn't a long and draining interview process, but that seems pretty much standard now. My last three jobs were preceded by full day interviews.
Oh, no, the game being dictated largely in part by how your deck was shuffled never goes away. That's part of the luck involved going from 7 wins to 12. Just how many time do you NOT get an opening hand full of 5+ mana cards. 'RNGstone' and 'esports' are derogatory nicknames this game has...
After 7-8 wins, luck is going to dominate how well you do. You're better off looking at your overall win average than how often you go 12 wins.
My guess is that since you come from MTG, you prefer control style decks. Those are very hard to draft in arena, but they are pretty fun when you...
Gladly!
As if DUMMY wasn't complex enough, RTG, STRINGIFY, and OPAQUE are macros too.
To be fair, I like macros like this:
Defining macros that improve code readability is great. The one above does the exact opposite.
I mentioned a little while back that I'm working in C again. I can see the usefulness of preprocessor macros, but I don't see enough of a use to justify just how much it fucks up your code's readability.
Anyone else wish they could change what their source code will actually look like when...
This seems like some snake eating it's own tail shit:

That being said, I still haven't pulled the trigger on any keyboard. It's like buyer's remorse to the extreme. I'm regretting the decision before I even make it.
Ok, I should have googled some more how other models currently did it. From this article
Exclusive: specs for - the smaller of two upcoming HTC-built Nexus devices
I had assumed every other device did it the same way and couldn't wrap my head around how that was even remotely convenient...
Thinking of replacing my Nexus 5 soon. Can anyone comment on phones with fingerprint scanners and how easy it is to use them? Seems like a practical way to secure your phone but I'm having trouble imaging it as a practical way to unlock the screen.
This might affect clear times much more severely:
Since they reference Black Hole as a knockback, I'm guessing anything that groups up monsters is a knockback. Don't all cold damage skills apply a chill, which is a CC? Seems kinda stupid that a damage element will eventually make it impossible...
12 wins is indeed impressive that quickly or at all.

I don't remember mech warrior ever being a thing.
I've never played the deck, maybe I'll dust off my Velen, but it sounds like a freeze mage with less card draw. How many cards do you need in your hand and discounted by turn 9?
OTK priest has never been ladder viable it's too gimmicky and priest lost too many of it's board control options in standard. Plus, you didn't face the one class dominating ladder that can just armor up out of OTK range.
Got my first 12-0 with this deck:
Ethereal Conjurers were the star, basically always pulling spells the deck was sorely lacking(mid to large removal). That being said, last night must have been retard bracket time. The whole run, I was consecrated once. That's the entirety of board...
There's still some good there. The games at their cores are good if unpolished(unfinished?). Unfortunately, they have embraced DLC to the fullest. Some of them, usually the early ones, will features worth the price to the game. Some of the later EU4 DLC have been stinkers.
