Operator overloading can be very useful when refactoring code but I wouldn't write brand new code using it. Inheritance and virtual functions can be very useful, but multiple inheritance I will try to avoid, etc. Comment...

Asked by wasereb4 (95.90.211.x) on April 29 2024, 10:35pm Reply on April 30 2024, 3:50pm: Not exactly programming but win32-API, the way that GetMessage()/PeekMessage() generates mouse events based on whether the "mouse-changed" internal state is set, and the prioritization of that related to other events such as timers and paint events, and how you can use PeekMessage() with PM_QS_* flags in order to prioritize those other events if desired... 3 Comments... Question: hey jf- in your mind, is there any benefits for using 32bit integers rather than 32bfp? reasons? (ie: rearouting audio) ta Asked by 2024 (86.185.199.x) on April 29 2024, 12:23pm Reply on April 29 2024, 1:08pm: There are some theoretical scenarios that could be advantageous but for real life I'd say 32FP is the way to go. The reason we offer 32I is for compatibility with software that doesn't support 32FP. 1 Comment...

Question: Hey Justin, I've been a huge fan from the Winamp era. I recently stumbled upon one of your answers where you shared that not having kids has been a part of your approach to a long-lasting marriage. It's an interesting perspective, especially considering the global trends on shrinking population. Given your successful career and the your life filled with outdoor adventures, music, reading, and meaningful work, I'm quite intrigued. Would you be willing to share a bit more about your decision not to have kids? Asked by mike (128.77.51.x) on April 27 2024, 12:17am Reply on April 27 2024, 12:58pm (edited at April 27 2024, 1:00pm): That was sort of a joke (its effect on our marriage) but not sure what else there is to share other than to say that it was always an obvious preference for both of us. So it wasn't a decision that was contemplated at length, it was a natural conclusion that I have not yet regretted. Re the global trends mentioned in the question: I don't think the global population is decreasing yet, but the growth is slowing (so if the trends continue, it would decrease at some point).
