@anhedonia@fsebugoutzone.org Oh god I didn't even notice, that's hilarious.
@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com @anhedonia@fsebugoutzone.org What the fuck is sepples?
@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com Oh I don't know anything about C++. What does C++ do differently that it doesn't understand malloc normally?
5 | int *yes = malloc(sizeof(int)*4);
| ~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

| void*
The C++ spec refuses to allow implicit casting even in well formed cases, so you have to either compile with -fpermissive or cast.
@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com I keep learning more and more reasons for why nobody should ever use C++ every single day
@Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com Like so void* has no real purpose in C++?
@GNUxeava@fedi.absturztau.be @Suiseiseki@freesoftwareextremist.com I think it's hilarious that nobody who uses C++ actually understands anything about C++. At least it feels like that to me.
it tries to be everything so a person only knows parts of c++ they've actually used
what i like about c++ is if you know how to do one thing and be good at it, it will work forever. I miss this soooo much with python because every package in existence complains about major.minor.revision.revision.revision.revision to be different and refuses to work

By now C++ is also several different languages with compatible syntax, I've seen several iterations of its transformation in my lifetime and then I just stopped caring 😂
With the most recent standard it even looks like a decent language, problem is — would everyone on your team be using it, without certain convention set by the project and everyone following it everyone writes their own C++ and it works, but the code turns into mincemeat.
