Several annual surveys gather data about usage and missing features to predict future web trends and help product managers prioritize features and fixes. There are and other, either more tech-specific or more business-focused statistics like this disillusioning AI report by upwork. Takeaways from my subjective perspective According to the latest surveys, developers want to use Rust, Python, and TypeScript but stick with jQuery, .NET, and PHP to earn their salary. Senior developers are less satisfied with AI tools than juniors and managers, and according to the demographics, white men in the USA still dominate the development business – or the…

Introduction As a developer, I recently found myself faced with an exciting challenge: modernizing a legacy C# .NET codebase that was still using Bootstrap 3. The goal was clear - bring the project up to speed with the latest Bootstrap 5. However, I quickly realized that making such a significant leap could be risky and time-consuming. That's when I decided to take a phased approach: First, migrate from Bootstrap 3 to Bootstrap 4 Then, once stable, make the jump from Bootstrap 4 to Bootstrap 5 This strategy would allow for a more manageable transition, easier debugging, and a smoother overall…

Open Source C++ Stack

stp2y0 CommentsNewscoding, community, cpp, development, engineering, google, inclusive, productivity, software, softwaredevelopment

C++ is often labeled as "unsafe" and "complex," but I find these critiques unjustified. My experience working on major projects like Chromium, Node, and gRPC — each a non-trivial codebase deployed on millions of devices, both virtual and physical, and subject to rigorous scrutiny—has shown me the true power and reliability of C++. Let's not forget the remarkable engineering feats made possible by C++, such as Unreal Engine. Even Linux and Git, both written in C (arguably even less "safe" than C++), stand as testaments to the robust potential of these languages. There is a trick to writing C++ code…
