a) C++ is not an imperative language.

The issue isn't learning functional programming. C++ programmers already know it. The issue is putting laziness where it doesn't belong, because it bites you in the ass eventually later; you get bizarre, undebuggable space leaks and other kinds of broken code.
Laziness makes your program logic hard to reason about and hard to verify.

Perhaps I can finally compile it from source.
Firefox has ironically been one of the very very few programs
I have failed to compile (and get it to work, too). It's strange
because gcc, glibc, the kernel, qt/kde, gtk+gnome (excluding
systemd since I don't use that clown-software) all worked
more or less fine, with a bit help from LFS/BLFS. Firefox,
though ... a wonderful example of what happens when you
neglect your build system in use. So using clang may have
improved the process for Mozilla.

(I switched to another browser but I still want to be able to
compile something and have a potential fallback if something
happens where I need the flexibility.)

ad. a) C++ is *akchually* multi-paradigm, not strictly imperative. nonetheless, most of C++ code is written in an imperative way. C++ started off as an extension to an imperative language, the core principles of C++ are based on state in some form, it's easy to write imperative C++.
>b) [...] C++ templates
C++ templates are a part of C++, designed for solving a specific set of problems(I don't know enough to say anything useful, so I'll just drop that it's also likely to be a Turing tarpit). Haskell is a general purpose language.
C++ is a flesh golem, that has a massive amount of features. So yeah, you've even got a purely functional, lazy language inside it. Good job, it doesn't matter in this argument.
>C++ programmers already know it
You are dangerously close to "No true C++ programmer fallacy".
"I know a programmer who does C++ and doesn't understand functional programming" , "Well, he isn't a good enough C++ programmer!".
That also comes back to how massive C++ is, and how everything is piled onto it. There is an absurd amount of various syntactic structures, so many features that any two programmers' C++ can easily look nothing alike. It's almost worse than Lisp in that regard.
It's quite presumptuous to say "C++ programmers understand functional programming".
>Laziness makes your program logic hard to reason about and hard to verify.
provided you think of the program imperatively, instead of functionally. In Haskell, by default the order in which operations are done doesn't matter, only data dependencies do.
I wouldn't be so sure that you understand purely functional programming, if you think that laziness could cause bugs with it. Or you are talking about implementing laziness in imperative programming, which would be so difficult, I can't feasibly imagine how to do it. | null | 0 | 1546294330 | False | 0 | ecz2w1q | t3_aavxpp | null | null | t1_ecz18es | /r/programming/comments/aavxpp/advent_of_haskell_thoughts_and_lessons_learned/ecz2w1q/ | 1548342725 | 6 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

Everybody is approaching this as an HR person, which is emblematic of the problem. The hiring process should be a place to do something that reflects the work, not a standardized test you take over and over again.
Anticipating the employers' code needs before the interview and having reusable code available when it's needed again reflect things that are desirable in a programmer.

They certainly seem to fit right in for a small technology department with only one or a couple of teams, from personal experience:
- Truth 1: you’ll get to set the culture, standards, and technologies used.
- Truth 2: you’ll have more freedom to choose the projects you work on and how you do them.
- Truth 3: you must be willing to learn and teach yourself anything.
- Truth 4: [small companies] are constantly facing uphill battles and you’ll rarely have the resources you need to do projects as well as you’d like
- Truth 5: the work environment is fun, the connections you’ll make are invaluable, and the flexibility is unbeatable.
It's probably not as flexible as a start-up (there's some code existing, already), but otherwise seems pretty fitting. | null | 0 | 1546299250 | False | 0 | ecz94cy | t3_abbg9z | null | null | t3_abbg9z | /r/programming/comments/abbg9z/rock_star_engineers_sometimes_work_at_startups/ecz94cy/ | 1548345640 | 117 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |

False | Pseudoboss11 | t2_d2rul | It depends. Does the sort of behavior result in people who may be better for the job either leaving or not coming into the community in the first place?

The behavior effectively adds another selection criteria for kernel maintainers; that a maintainer must have a thick enough skin.

False | Dwedit | t2_68486 | I had done some optimization on Snes9x where a function was using lots of && and || operators, and this function was eating up significant CPU time according to my profiling. After replacing them with & and |, the function ran significantly faster.
This is because the && and || operators are conditional branches, not arithmetic instructions. So if the conditions change, you have mispredicted branches each time they are different. Bitwise Operators on the other hand do not vary in speed based on their values changing.
Your mileage may vary. x86 prefers avoiding mispredicted branches over the penalty of executing more operations.

None of that never came.

Conversation went on for 50~ minutes, was told there would be 3-4 more interviews to determine a few things (nervous again).

Sure, but as far as I know, they've never released another one.
> only talks about LSB, not what the kernel actually does
[What the kernel does is **not break userspace.**](https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/23/75) What userspace expects is effectively LSB. That's why that document is still absolutely relevant.
Common distros *absolutely do not* patch the kernel in such a manner as to change the [universally accepted behavior of POSIX file permissions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system_permissions).
It feels like you're arguing for the sake of argument. If the the behavior of filesystem permissions was the wacky crazy funtime minefield you seem to be implying, then literally nobody would be using Linux as the basis for their server infrastructure; they'd be insane to do so.
Unless you can cite file and line from some version of the kernel where the permissions behavior is insane (which you can't, I know, because I've read the VFS code up and down), then you're just being needlessly contrary. | null | 0 | 1546299906 | False | 0 | ecz9wg9 | t3_aalc4n | null | null | t1_ecz7jcx | /r/programming/comments/aalc4n/windows_file_access_performance_compared_to_linux/ecz9wg9/ | 1548345993 | 1 | t5_2fwo | r/programming | public | null |
