Learning a new language won't necessarily make you a better programmer, however learning a new paradigm most certainly will. It's not about applying syntax sugar from one language in another, but about learning a new way to approach problems.

It's a myth that template heavy, header-only libraries are somehow superior to 'classic' C++ libraries. Quite the contrary, all the separation between interface and implementation is gone when templated code is used. The implementation becomes the interface. A showstopper in the real world.

You're thinking of `strcpy()`. `memcpy()` is fine -- or at least it can't be made any safer unless you (a) ban dynamic memory allocation and (b) add range checking to the C language.

Thanks for distinguishing `strcpy_s()`, which makes sense, from `memcpy_s()`, which doesn't but is harmless. IMHO this is the most relevant point by a mile, but none of the other commenters have pointed it out.

Operator new is like malloc. It just allocates some memory. The new operator allocates memory (using operator new) as well as constructs an object in that memory (by calling the constructor). Or it can be used in the placement form, in which case it only constructs the object. This uses the new (and delete) operator...

A regex is just a representation for a set of strings. You can index these just like anything else, and just like anything else, your main problem is to reduce the size of the search-space as much as quickly as possible. If this seems far fetched to you, just consider determining the set of bigrams that a given regex...

The main point of the article was that it reduced response times for international traffic since you don't need to wait for an ack to cross an ocean so often, or at all if the page is under the window size. Seems obvious - don't know why you'd accuse them of lying.

I use this for a project (not released yet) where I needed to split user submissions in chunks to send them to proofreaders. The chunks need to be of a limited size, and the splits should occur at points which are as natural as possible (ie. not at the middle of a sentence if possible).

Question about lisp, from someone interested in lisp but who never got around to learning it: Most discussions seem to focus on writing lisp code. What about reading it?

Yeah, but this is bad for when you want better latency. By cramming 10 packets in the pipe at once (times however many users), you stand to cause a huge backlog in buffering, preventing the syn and acks. Then you have a lot of customers whose connections just kinda stall out. It works great if you never hit your peak ...

But it's not true that some other language is "far" from assembly. Heck, you could take ruddy C# (a rather high-level language), use struct and primitive types and write all just as you would with C. It's a mere case of language having low-level features. And many do.

One could bolt on better meta programming libraries. .NET has at least four from Microsoft alone with varying strengths and purposes. But to use them you are forced to use woefully inappropriate imperative style code. VB does have declarative XML, but I don't see it being useful for this sort of data.
