Then you have to go into a resource file and find a very specific resource ID for your control panel string, and create a new resource ID to me it to.
Ah yes the joys of working with Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC), Back in the day I supported a VS6.0 application, you have room for 65535 UI elements in an application (Including DLL’s) I had to split the ID’s up in ranges to enable adding new elements in a sane way.
My solutions are:
Brave new world, in a few years some bank or the like will be totally compromised because of some AI generated vulnerability.
That reminds me of Illiad’s UserFriendly where the non tech guy Stef creates a do_what_i_mean() function, and that goes poorly.
I would say this AI function generator is a new version of: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DWIM
I prefer the multi thread problems that can be solved using queues.
Rational Rose etc. could generate code from UML diagrams, then you “only” needed architects.
In reality it only gave a little help during the design phase, as soon as someone touches the generated code, you have to manually merge changes to UML.
And 42 seconds in jython.
You have reached the pinnacle of Linux, every other distro you try from now on will seem bland. 🧗🏼
That’s easy you just use the huge number of test cases to ensure against introducing new bugs.

I was looking into learning COBOL some years ago, because i found that verbosity interesting.
And it seemed like there’s not many libs and toolboxes out there, compared to the major languages that has libs for everything, so I couldn’t really use it for small projects.
Editing grub.cfg from an emergency console, or running grub-update from a chroot is a close second.
Adding the right Modeline to xorg.conf seemed more like magic when it worked. 🧙🏼
Could be I was not clear when I wrote performance, I am talking about High Performance Computing, where you want to spend all CPU cycles on solving your problem. While taking Amdal’s Law into account. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl’s_law
🤦🏽♀️ Thanks for explaining, my brain must have corrected the race condition.
Regarding threads: I have had good experience with using thread safe queues everywhere to exchange data between threads, it’s the right tool in many cases, but I doubt queues to be useful when coding for performance.
OP in 10 months:
Good my colleagues think I am Hackerman that can hack through time!
I use Devuan on my servers, changed because I was annoyed that systemd was forced on me. (I have mellowed a bit since and accept that systemd is here to stay)
I chose Mint for my laptop, because I just want a OS that works and still gives me a taskbar. (Here I got fed up when Ubuntu switched away from gnome)
All of them are apt based Linux because it just works and when apt shoots itself in the foot during dist upgrades you can still wrangle it back in working order.
