So, I'm coming from Fortran mostly, moving to C++, and I've this explicitly vectorized Fortran code which runs column wise operations, e.g.:

a = input(:, 1) + input(:, 2)

Now, I'm wondering how to implement this the fastest using Rcpp/C++.

I can use (Rcpp)Armadillo to implement the implicit logic, or loop through vector elements. Since the overhead of flipping between the two is quite some work I would love someone's take up front.

@eddelbuettel @eliocamp ?

Would any #windows #developer want to work on a funky #Gtk C++ bug?

The Inkscape project is empty of windows developers and needs some help fixing a fairly serious issue: gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-

If I had a windows machine, I'd have tried to fix this one. But I'm completely at sea for this type of issue without the OS on hand. (don't try developing on a VM or old computer, Inkscape is too big and slow to build on windows for that)

Looks like its time for a new #introduction :blobfoxwave:

I am an engineer living near San Francisco with my partner #migrating to this instance from @greg@pettingzoo.co. As a gay/queer furry (adjacent?) engineer, I am excited to be joining this community!

My projects and interests cover all sorts of things, from tech (#fpga #eink #cpp #python #arduino #selfhosting #zfs #VintageComputing) to #travel (and #transit) and creative outlets (#photography #DigitalArt #music #gardening #movies #cooking).

(NB: I'm just kicking off the migration process. If you see follow requests from this account over the next few days, it's likely I was following you from @greg@pettingzoo.co)

Suppose I should write an #introduction

Trying out the fediverse as a replacement for reddit.

I'm an #engineer and #cpp dev.

#linux enthusiast, #arch being my distro of choice but hate the elitism associated.

#libertariansocialist and #antifascist as fuck.

I enjoy #deathmetal, #blackmetal, #punk and more.

#dyslexic so please bear with me. But regardless I enjoy reading, almost exclusively #scifi.

Usually mostly a lurker but so far I've felt a stronger desire to engage here!

Hi !👋

It's time for an #introduction, seeing that the fediverse is becoming more and more relevant.

My name is Chris, and I'm a software engineer based in Germany. I specialize in backend development (#golang, #cpp, #rust) and love learning new things.

I also work a fair bit with #hyperscalers (depending on the projects) and #kubernetes.

If time permits I post technical articles on my website chrisnicola.de

#gaming is also one of my hobbies (primarily on #pc or #ps5).

chrisnicola.dechrisnicola.deTechnology-focused blog, specialised in free software, backend development, Kubernetes, Linux and other assorted bits.

Well, whatever, #introduction:

94. I mess with computers as my main activity and daily job. Jack of all trades, master of none: for now, ended as an engine developer at Remedy Entertainment, but used to do quite various things, like Unix and network administration, web and backend programming etc.
56. The daily job serves the main purpose to let my three cats have a better life.
40. Native bilingual in UA/RU, more or less fluent in EN, slowly learning FI, can read PL. Here, however, I'm gonna use English mostly, but feel free to react in all stated languages.
34. The most highlighted hobbies: movies (almost any genre), books (fantasy and sci-fi), boardgames, video games, audio recording and sound design, custom mechanical keyboards, roguelikes, font design, UI/UX.
58. As of movies, I collect blu-ray disks. Partially because it's the only legal and reliable way to keep the stuff I paid for with me, partially because I love behind the scenes stuff way too much.
77. I can't eat spicy food.
38. For those who cares, the name is Nikita, pronounces are he/him (_I_ don't care how exactly do you refer me, however).

Searchable tags because why not: #programming #coding #gamedev #cpp #janet #networks #movies #fantasy #rpg #keyboards #mechboards #audio #sounddesign #ui #ux #fonts #roguelike #roguelikedev #boardgames

(wonder how many people will read this, but, welp)

Let's try this #introduction thing here.

👋​ Hi, I am rokku, a 39+ old human in the #autistic and #adhd spectrum. As a person I behave as a #INTJ or #5w6. I don't use a #gender for me but I know there are a lot of them #agender #nonbinary. If you are talking to me, I prefer you not using pronouns but my name. If you want to use pronouns then use xe/xem/xyr.

I am #sysadmin for life and #polyglot #developer for 20+ years. I love #selfhosting things. I work in the #hosting business. I was formerly #selfemployed and plan to do so again.

I do #debian servers and #arch for my workstation. All other distros are bad, especially #ubuntu (yes i know its from debian but with ugly things in it)

My beloved languages are #perl, #raku and #nim. But I do much more of them like #cpp, #java, #python, #rust and what not. I like compiled languages which give you the ability to shoot you in the foot, because this is the way we learn things.

I like #old #school things, how we did it in the past. I did not stay behind, but new things must proof themself.

For me #respect needs to be earned and is not given for free. I am only interested in people that esteem me and so do I.

My #vocation is #IT and all the stuff around it.

I'm a former member of the pirate party germany (#Piratenpartei Deutschland). I was member of the Landesverband Bayern as a General Secretary and Treasurer. I am founder of the #Bezirksverband #Mittelfranken and also member of the board as a General Secretary.

Not enough, I am a #metroidvana, #megaman, #dragonball #nerd and #gamer starting with an Super NES console long time ago. I prefer the #xbox over the #playstation. I prefer games like #blasphemous, #warframe, #newworld, #doom and much more as I even could write here.

In my spare time I like to do things with #3D #printing

Hello everyone! My name is The Tech Owl. I am an owl animatronic who's studying in Computer Science with a focus in #AI. I have lots of experience using #Linux and programming via #cpp, #csharp, and #python. I also love movies, TV shows, and video games like #fnaf.
