I would like to read blogpost about this and what could be done better.

> In early 2026, we saw a gradual increase in all categories of bug reports, but by March, the shift was apparent: we received more bug reports than we had in the entirety of 2025

sure, moreover - maybe big AI usage significantly influenced the amount of bugs. So, the picture can be like that: - 2025: 50bugs found, 45fixed - 2026: 500bugs found, 450 fixed

naming of api functions too. They all prepended with "SDL_" as if this is SDL library, but it not.

yeah, but I'm just using `git restore -S -p`

it's not as easy as you said. it can be tricky and complicated to use edit mode. I usually use it, but still often don't understand - will this edit succeed or why it is failed.

why you want to build new terminal multiplexer? Is there issues with current? tmux or zellij?

Still very interested. Especially if you will go further than terminal - multiplexer for window environment, not just in terminal

pimpl can solve several problems and allowing to extend struct without breaking ABI is the one is them. But even such implementation of pimpl breaks compile time and ABI dependency. You can't change size without breaking ABI, but still can change members, etc (e.g. replace current fields with heap allocated to extend without breaking ABI :))

Why did he do this? Really, if this is a way to protect your privacy, then it's a bad way because it causes such a scenario. Of course it works well against the stolen phone scenario, but not again "state authorities suspect me". Especially if this is the authority of some authoritarian state, where your rights do not really matter. Maybe he did this as a protest act?

> And before it grows too big, it wastes memory

how it wastes the memory? It's just a bytes array of the same size as struct. I would be more imposed on how idiomatic pimpl with heap allocation influences memory usage and cache hits

I think nothing prevents this, but this is just not the point of unique_ptr. unique_ptr is still ptr, so it consequently follows raw pointer semantics.

thx, I don't understand fully, but see something truthy in this. It would be interesting to read more detailed blog post about this.

> std::indirect looks for me like another pointless c++ thing that already works with forward pointer declaration. You can add it to another ton of pointless things C++ adds without fixing the old ones.

For me your comment seems pointless, because std::indirect have a precise and clear problem which it solves. And this is totaly not a "hackery fix of language drawback". In this case language works as intended and std::indirect just close the gap for facility which is still would be written by hands, if there is no std::indirect.

I'm interesting which C++ features also helps you to design such systems. I think basic RAII/function overloading/templates should give a lot of capabilities comparing with plain C?

> (as opposed to using plain C)

Also, curious - how plain C helps with this?

I think point was another. And even if u are right - this is a silly point. In any general language you have enormous amount of ways to write something. I'm at least implemented pimpl in two different ways (despite lot of little quircks): classic pimpl with heap allocated implementation and fastpimpl which accepts size as compile time argument and create implementation directly in local stack buffer.

> In large codebases you will now have to deal with all three solutions being used, depending on how old the code is.

this is really a problem of "large codebases" and not C++ complexity. If people writing badly organized code.. than.. nothing will help them. Even such string language as Rust.

But, I go aside. I can be wrong here, but this is how I see this: - author author worked with C++ early in his career - now his work with something like python or javascript or "promptscript" or don't programming at all - he managed to taste C++ drawbacks - now he reading such article just to see "what's new" in technology he was interested in the past. - he see something what he don't understand from first sight - this looks like a complex and quirky thing => he decide that problem in the language, not in his incompetence in this area

I see such comments very often and usually people don't provide any technical expertise. But just their feeling that "oh, this thing was so complex, now it even more complex".

where "more and more complex" do u see in this article? This is a basic C++ idiom, which constantly used by developers

oh yeah, how my opinion changing: - in schools I used HTML+CSS to make my own site during homework - after that I understand that no one truly create sites this way. You need JS, framework, database, etc, etc - now I returned back - I really need only my text editor and HTML+CSS

Holy, I love this simplicity
