Why should I not switch to Windows 10? I'm still on 8 and want to know what the issues are.
literally no issues
it just works

I've had some problems with the menus taking way too long to come up, for example control panel is slow as shit for me. And it fucked with my ASIO4All drivers, making it crash every time I tried to change a setting. I recently switched to Windows 7, and I'm feeling great.
With all the praise Chromecast receives, does it have some actual uses that aren't "display shitty apps on your TV"?
I don't see a single application for this that a cable couldn't do better.

>being this retarded
Does the Chromecast have uses that aren't exactly what it is used for?
Why, no Bob, it does exactly what it says it does, which is display shitty apps on your TV.
It ALSO, as an extension of doing exactly what it's advertised to do, allows you to display any OS desktop that chrome supports on your TV without needing a cable at all.

Yes there is.
It's worth it alone for Videostream if you don't have a dedicated media center setup, especially if you hate watching shit on a monitor like me.
Now that 7zip 15.12 was released last week, lets talk about that cons and the pros of both 7zip and WinRAR.
Which one would you use?
Why use one over the other?

>inb4 epic shilling for either of those and no one cares about what anyone else says if they disagree
>>51577994
Op is a faggot
winrar is "free"
7z is actually free but it lacks the options I use the most in winrar

short version:
the user doesn't get to decide his own settings
I like the healthreport though. There's no problem as long as the data isn't being transmitted. This is a non issue compared to all the other retarded shit that mozilla has been doing like killing the panorama which was quite possibly the best feature in the browser.
The worst part will be the death of real addons.
Yeah sure, so when an update comes they can put the switch back to "send telemetry" and suddenly they have months worth of data on the user.
You think I'm joking? Not the first time they did this, see pic related.
They just put in two switches.

What are you working on, /g/?
When I allocate a class in C++ using new, the objects in the class are on the heap as well right? Even if they're non-pointer members?
Repost:
I uploaded my language in its current state at: http://neetco.de/languagedev/language
1. There are design issues with the typenodes (MNode in pmf.h/cpp) which makes the code bloated, error-prone and leaky.
2. The primitives only work with int types. Beside, they're handled ad-hoc and bypass most of the code generation, which is also bug-prone and oogleh.
3. I haven't tested that it actually produces valid executables (but the llvm looks OK).
4. printf-and-continue-until-segfault is used instead of proper erroring,
build.sh provides the commands to run to build the entire thing. Only the last command is required if the .y (bison file) and .l (flex file) aren't touched.
The code is mostly written as almost-throwaway code so it's not pretty, but it should be understandable and workable.
The language's syntax is in the .y file. There is support for if-then, if-then-else, while, set!, let, lambda, type declaration (might not work, not sure) and function calls. Moreover, any symbol can be placed infix to represent an infix call without ambiguity under LALR(1):let fn = lambda (x, y) x + y;
fn(3, 4) fn fn(8, 9);
\\should output the llvm IR for "7 + 17"
There are some simple to correct syntax flaws such as require ; after {} in if and while statements.
llvm_backend.h/cpp does code generation. No passmanager is used, so it outputs unoptimized code, which is especially useful for debugging.
I like the base syntax (beside some flaws that need to be addressed, as outlined above) so far, but the codebase is starting to be hard to work with. Next up is probably, implementing multiple dispatch and type translation (e.g. <number> = <u>(<long>, <double>) should unify the union type, not the <number> type, with whatever argument is used in a function call).
Any pull request, patches, or suggestions would be appreciated, especially in how to cleanup the code.
Pay attention to meeeee!-edition.

One of our customers is the largest television broadcasting compnany in our country. So we build companion apps around their shows and an VOD platform.
For some reason the clients tests on the day of the release and expect a new bugless build the same day.

Prove me wrong.
