Maybe I have to practicalize this with an APK from one of you and bind it with a spyware then send it back to you to install on your mobile device for you to believe me.

if I no go leak all the secret wey dey your phone no be my papa born me...I go even tell you where you dey live now and send you the most recent pictures you take with your phone.

Some of you commenting here are so dumb, daft and plain stupid, Sadly, you can easily access google from your phone and research what I posted yet you still too lazy to even do that simple task.
Feel free, I can have a screen record session while installing.

Smh, incase you don't know there are lots of compromised apps on stores wether Google play store or iOS...

"All bank transaction are encrypted over HTTPS which is hard to crack" LOLThat's what bank want you to believe, tell me how hackers get hold of bank accounts and sell on darknets if "transactions are encrypted"?

Have you even heard of the word "keylogger"? google it first then come back to me for further discussions.

How does keylogger relate to HTTPS?

Any app can embed malware into their application, which is why you're encouraged to download applications on verified app stores (Google play store and iOS). All bank transactions are encrypted over HTTPS which is hard to crack. This is baseless on all ramification.

Programming / Re: Why I Am Stepping Into Rust by kiddie(m): 2:04pm On Jul 18, 2020

1. Haha, Rust compilation time is worse. Do u even read anything, Rust compilation speed is one of the downsides. Are you comparing "Hello, World" ?

2. What a moronic argument! C++ is an ISO (try to learn what that means) standardized, they typically don't write softwares in those rooms. They write papers.
Pkg man should be something the community does rather than a committee.
C++ now has modules which enable better package management implementation.

3. So u made an argument and u still destroyed it. C++ has modules, period!

4. What does this even mean ?


More like: I just want to ride on the Rust Evangelism Train by all means. BTW, it's the ISO STANDARD COMMITTEE.
- They've been more than successful with the introduction of C++11.
- You probably can't differentiate a C++98 from a C++20, because if u can u won't be saying this crap.


Of course it's here to stay. But what will it stay as ? Maybe a competitor to Golang in Networking and web.
Golang was supposed to be a C++ killer remember? Now it has been relegated to building networking application. Facepalm!
It had to stray away from its original goal of "system programming language", can't even write a half-decent game engine in it.

All in all, Rust like Dlang was needed as competition to C++ so the committee don't get complacent like Intel.
Between 2020 and 2026 is the last stand for Rust, if by C++26 :
- It has worse compilation to C++: Well, I predict its going to
- It less powerful generic programming to C++.
- "Memory Safety" is still the selling point

Then it's just going to be "one of the others"

I'd prefer we converse without hurling insults grin
1. You seem to be comparing Rust compile time which has an amazing compile error checker and C++ whose error checker is suboptimal. Have you seen rust error logs when users make mistakes it literally guides users to how they can make changes, this comes at a cost but it's worth it and I'm sure this would be perfected soon.

2. I guess this has been C++ pitfall. You have clang, msvc and more and when the high and mighty forces down "a standard way to write something down our throats" then various compiler developers starts scampering to implement support and then we have bad code cross-compilation.

3. Too too late we cant wait for all libraries to make the transition.

4. Show me books in C++ that teaches unit testing and benchmarking precisely especially for beginners, Rust documentation does that smiley which is one of the fundamentals of programming.

You seem to be on the defence for C++ cheesy C++98 to C++20 seem to be a very wide consistent development age for the C++ team and we pretty much haven't solved the issue of optimally using a low level language like C++ for modern computers.

Golang is meant to be a C++ killer? How? To write low level driver codes? Go has garbage collection.

Let give Rust the chance and make opensource softwares to make it fly.

1. It's not 1998 or 2000 or 2010, it's 2020. Which syntax rule are talking about ? FALSE
Rust took C++ syntax and made it worse. It's like a giraffe impregnating a donkey, the end result...

2. That's true. But having GC sometimes can make things easier.

3. Apple does not like sharing. TRUE

1. Still behind D in C interop and both are definitely not even close to C++ in C interop. You directly use C in C++. HALF TRUTH.

2.
Less likely to happen compared to C, C++ or D. Not impossible, keep learning. FALSE!
No one told about 'unsafe' ? Sorry, u are still learning.

3. No one told about 'unsafe' ? Sorry, u are still learning.

4. No one told about 'unsafe' ? Sorry, u are still learning.

5. Could good idea now, might be a PITA in the future. Some things are best kept out of the language.

6.

I understand your pain, you're coming from peasantry so any little upgrade will be seen as uplifting.

7.

Rust can only dream of C++ Templates and consequently Concepts.
Edit: It got a lot better than the last time I checked.


Once upon a time, a language called D was to destroy C++, it didn't happen

Pros:
- Neat Syntax
- Superior Template (Generics)
- Vast stdlib
- Build system
...

Cons:
- Compiler Licensing issues
- stdlib fragmentation
- Came with GC
- Few libraries to work with

The greatest mess up was GC, people who write C++ are no interested in Garbage Collection talk, bury it!
Many of D features (some were original C++ papers) made it into Modern C++... surprise!

Apparently, RUST didn't (completely) learn from D. It solves most of its cons but left out pros.

- Worse | more Ugly syntax compared C++. Compared to D's mostly neat, expected and simple syntax.
- Inferior Generics system. D had superior generics which are also faster to compile.
- inferior C interop.
- Worse compile times.
- Thin stdlib.



TLDR; The OP is still honeymoon period, he doesn't know much of what he's saying. Forgive him!

Entirely my opinion:
Rust is an amazing, modernized language which was thought out accurately when implementing. It improves where C++ lacks and takes out features from other languages like Golang(masterpiece concurrency).
There are lots of downsides in C++(is my first language)
1. High compilation time
2. Theres no standard package manager in C++ which makes development complex. Go and Rust package management is first class. vcpkg by Microsoft doesn't even near it.
2b. Versioning in C++ is close to zero.
3. Translation unit in C++ isnt top notch and they plan on making changes using modules which should improve the language compilation time and binary size but still itll take time for every single library to make a port.
4. Making tests in C++ isnt just there yet honestly which is why we see lots of vulnerabilities in C++ softwares, you hardly even see people teaching testing in C++.

C++ creators are trying to patch things up but I think it's too late. Rust is here to stay. I'd even go for Golang than C++.

harryobas:


Dude Its like you misunderstand my post in certain areas so let me correct you as follows:

1. I did not say Rust has a better C inter-op than C++ just merely pointed it out as one of its features.

2. Language syntax is a matter of personal taste. For me C++ syntax looks uglier than Rust syntax. But hey that's just my opinion

3. Segmentation faults are impossible by default unless you for example use raw pointers in unsafe block

4. Rust provides the concept of traits that serve the same purpose as templates in C++. Traits in my opinion are cleaner and less verbose than C++ templates.


4. Templates are generic containers in C++.

Also note that golang does not support websockets out of the box, you will need to pull in the gorilla websocket package to use websockets in your project.

ehm debugging is not necessarily ethical hacking. The kind of debugging software engineers do are not same kind of debugging ethical hackers do. I just have to clarify that. Meanwhile, ethical hacker is a field which is gathering serious interest in Nigeria this day unlike you said.
The actual difference is that hackers debug with assemblers since they don't have access to the code. I don't think any right thinking firm would employ any engineer who doesn't know how to test his system for loophole. If you feel hacking in terms of ddos and botnets and the rest then it's pretty useless going to a school on that when you can learn at home. Imagine you interviewing an hacker and the only thing he can boast of is having some professional certificate.
Programming / Re: Ethical Hacking Vs Software Engineering: Advice Needed by kiddie(m): 7:23pm On Jan 28, 2019
Since you'll get the Pali I'll advise to go for software why.... You hardly see jobs on ethical hacking best thing is bug bounties and I don't think I'll employ an ethical hacker based on Pali but on what you've done and can do. Software engineers are needed all over from web development which I'll advice you to go into to machine learning and the rest and there's huge pay too and also software engineers do the work of ethical hackers by testing for bugs before production but not too in-depth though.

Sure i can write mine to dispel your paranoid delusions of a wild north. I can even illustrate it with pictures of your kin living in peace while acquiring properties and wealth.

But why bother engaging with a bigoted zealot?

You're already neck-deep in the anti-northern muslim false narrative spun by the malevolent maniacs in CAN in the collective christian bid to undermine and demean anything islam.

You idiots failed to see how our society is insulated from the vagaries of yours, which is decadent and crumbling under the weight of sheer immorality and brutish corruption.

Is your dogmatic paranoia fueled by jealousy? Or is it just that you christians are collective assholes who turned the teaching of your christ upside down to serve your lecherous and lethargic disposition, and thus take affront at those stronger and of tougher moral fiber than you?

There are tens of millions of you bastards lingering in the north. If your false narrative of a violent, anti-christian north was true, not a single bible-thumping motherfukker would be alive.

But we're nearing that supposition. Keep pushing us and see an inverted crusade where we'll wipe every single christian scum off the face of the north.

Keep asking for it you dimwit.

Your uncle's done in, right?

Good.

One down.....
