They can be mixed, as for example C++/CLI ones often are, but AFAIK the framework doesn't use that.

Aren't they working on making C++ slower?

I'm not bored enough to look at the code in githubl but since one of his simplifications was cutting down to little more than reading/writing but I remember recently seeing a why is my C++ so slow question (on stackoverflow?) that came down to interleaved read/write's being bitten by something (IIRC in the standard) that prevented the compiler from optimizing its output very well.

- Both languages can be compiled to machine code (either statically or dynamically with a JIT compiler)
- Both languages have similar language features
- C# has a more extensive library
I suspect that most of the variance would be traceable to the support libraries for each language.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

In raw speed C++ and .NET are not too different. In areas like SIMD support C++ used to have the edge, but now .NET 4.6 has support for that too. I still need to test it, so I'm not sure about the extents of the improvements. I'm surprised the SIMD support even made it into .NET after they have been ignoring requests for it for years. Maybe they were motivated somewhat because Mono had SIMD support for a long time already.
I remember .NET's inlining sometimes wasn't as aggressive as you'd want it to be. There were quite some reports about it, but MS deemed .NET to be fast enough and for a long time didn't bother with optimizing it further.

It's a start, but nowhere near enough. They've only put in some trivial SIMD. There is way too much missing. There are no permutes (worst of all nothing like PSHUFB), no saturating arithmetic, no SAD, no PHMINPOSUW, no multiply-high, no movmsk, no horizontal operations (ok they suck, but not nearly as hard as emulating them), nothing from the PCMP*STR* family. that's not really an exhaustive list, just what I can name off the top of my head. The subset of operations that is supported is even smaller than what autovectorizing compilers will use, and it's not even automatic..
It does have a divide that works on integers, which is actually worse than not having it because it tricks people into vectorizing their integer division containing loops, while no PDIVD exists.

Believe it or not, Microsoft is offering a Linux on its Azure cloud certification. And I'm sure there's a lineup to take that test

Like reading that Oracle is offering MS-SQL certifications..

It's hard to see any evidence of Agile penetration at Google, Apple, or Facebook. Why? "Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth"
|
|
|
|
|
Seminars entitled "How to win friends and influence people" tend to be attended by people who have neither friends nor influence. The same can be inferred for seminars entitled "How to be Agile".
So - the fact that the Microsoft and like companies are not at these probably means the inverse of what this author is concluding.

As previously announced, starting January 12, 2016 Microsoft will no longer provide security updates, technical support or hotfixes for .NET 4, 4.5, and 4.5.1 frameworks. But 3.5 is still supported?
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe because 3.5 is an integral component of Windows 7?
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, I was thinking of something like that - either Weven or Wen.

IIRC 3.5sp0 is the integral OS component. 3.5sp1 is the supported version. My assumption's that it has to do with .net 2.0/3.0/3.5 collectively being .net generation 2 (and supported via in place upgrades from one to the next); with 3.5sp1 being the newest version of that family. 4.0/4.5/4.5.1/4.5.2/4.6 are all part of the 3rd .net generation, and are inplace upgrades from each other but install next to 3.5. (All of them install beside .net 1.1, if you've got something really old and crufty around. OTOH it's out of support so you really need to do something about it if you do.)

Yup. After reading that I've resolved to end all of my texts with punctuation. Anyone who gets offended by that is probably a sunshine I want to elephant with anyway.

I've always noticed that people think I'm a complete jerk when I use punctuation, even though I'm younger. I either seem really smart, or a jerk.

A look at recent patch lists for IE and Edge hints that many of IE's warts will continue to haunt us I am shocked.
