SKP's Java/Java EE Gotchas: Clash of the Titans, C++ vs. Java!

DZone

This begins not only in designing the algorithm or coming out with efficient and robust architecture but right onto the choice of programming language. The legacy languages — be it ASM or C still rule in terms of performance. There were languages I briefly read about, including other performance comparisons on the internet.

C++ safety, in context

Sutter's Mill

To talk about C++’s current safety problems and solutions well, I need to include the context of the broad landscape of security and safety threats facing all software. tl;dr: I don’t want C++ to limit what I can express efficiently. tl;dr: I don’t want C++ to limit what I can express efficiently. issues with C++.

Faster remainders when the divisor is a constant: beating compilers and libdivide

Daniel Lemire

I believe that all optimizing C/C++ compilers know how to pull this trick and it is generally beneficial irrespective of the processor’s architecture. In concrete terms, here is the C code to compute the remainder of the division by some fixed divisor d : uint32_t d =. ; // your divisor > 0. if ( ( i % 3 ) = = 0 ).

Distributed Algorithms in NoSQL Databases

Highly Scalable

These developments gradually highlight a system of relevant database building blocks with proven practical efficiency. In comparison with pure anti-entropy, this greatly improves consistency with a relatively small performance penalty. C) In the previous schema, failures can be handled better using the hinted handoff technique [8].

My C++ Now 2023 talk is online: “A TypeScript for C++”

Sutter's Mill

Thanks again to C++ Now for inviting me to speak this year in glorious Aspen, Colorado, USA! The talk I gave there was just posted on YouTube, you can find it here: At CppCon 2022, I argued for why we should try to make C++ 10x simpler and safer , and I presented my own incomplete experimental compiler, cppfront.

Trip report: November 2024 ISO C++ standards meeting (Wrocław, Poland)

Sutter's Mill

On Saturday, the ISO C++ committee completed the third-last design meeting of C++26, held in Wrocaw, Poland. There are just two meetings left before the C++26 feature freeze in June 2025, and C++26 is on track to be completed two more meetings after that in early 2026. is the nutshell synopsis. Thank you, Hana!
