From 'Daily Insider', Monday, May 22:
deepin Linux V23 can replace Windows 11 on your PC
I read it until sentence 2,
If you are dissatisfied with Windows 11 or macOS, and intrigued by Linux, deepin, a distro from China,....
Well, enough reading this article and closed the tab.
Sorry but I don't trust a Chinese distro.

Pretty much my response. I've got my hands full already with my own code and need to focus on that.

Yeah, very few people are capable of understanding that code, nevermind putting in the time to read millions of lines of complex code and figuring out what each of them does.

...and then, some bugs are so subtle even experienced developers might not catch them knowing there's a bug and staring at the code.

And then, do you trust the compiler?
A long time ago there was a proof of concept where someone had modified a gcc compiler to that if it compiled a linux kernel it would insert a backdoor in the logon process, and if it compiled a gcc compiler, it would insert the code that would make the compiler do this.
I wouldn't necessarily trust a Chinese distro any more than I would trust an American distro or Windows or Mac OS or a Cisco firewall.
Imo, if an agency like the NSA or their Chinese equivalent wants in on your network, they have the resources to do so regardless of what you are running.

It's also cheaper to just break down your front door.

And beat me with a rubber hose until I log in as a domain administrator in my company. I know. But that is visible and will trigger a response to the breach. Siphoning away our data without anyone noticing is where the game is at.

No. More specifically, I trust the people but not the CCP government that forces the people do certain things. Everyone knows the story of the boy who cried wolf, yet few people learn the lesson behind it. Their track record doesn't lend itself to blind trust.

I'm not even sure I trust the people. Chinese culture simply doesn't include the concept of private property. They have "private property" but from a cultural standpoint, it has no real meaning.

Your Apple phone isn't yours either. Apple decides what happens to it. Microsoft decides what happens to your Windows machines. Etc. And they will sell your data to the highest bidder, as does every other company, while the NSA has backdoors into pretty much everything, with or without cooperation from the tech companies.

Chris, have you thought of integrating ChatGPT to help people debug?
I am just curious if the asking for help has or will go down after ChatGPT?
I am not using it to debug, no, not me, never, I prefer humans.
I hope the human aspect always stays around but some of us like myself don't wish to wait for a reply sometimes when time is pressing. Or maybe Codeproject just expects all of us to be using tools like ChatGPT?

Why would someone use Code Project for answers to questions if they are using Chat GPT? The integration would not make any sense, really.
I have a paid subscription to Open AI ChatGPT and use it all the time. Not ashamed of it either. I usually use Google to cross check questionable answers for accuracy, but it gets me 80-90% of the way there.
Just saying.

I am just curious as a hobbyist programmer.
I m used to asking real people for help on Codeproject when I was learning C++ back in the day. I hate C++ thank goodness for C#.
I believe tools like ChatGPT should be used like an assistant.
I am honestly making so much progress in my stuff lately because of ChatGPT.
I wouldn't mind if Codeproject had some sort of interface is all.

I absolutely love C++. I love that you can essentially open a dialogue with the compiler in the code instead of just the runtime executable. In essence you can make the compiler run code at compile time to generate code involving complex compile time computations.
The closest thing C# has is that new code generation feature, which works entirely differently, though admittedly I haven't use it.
Aside from that, no language can do what C++ can do in that respect, at least to my knowledge.
Metaprogramming is powerful.
