  • @riley @lesley you can have (multiple) inheritance even with a struct

  • @oblomov Having foo be a class and not a struct would make some things a lot more complicated. If there's no other way, I'd probably prefer to generate automatically the procedures that take struct bar *, invoke the converter explicitly, and then call the hand-written procedures, over doing multiple inheritance.

  • @ananas You're thinking about something weird.

    I want to do something like this, which, as you can see, is so perfectly cromulent than it compiles and runs:

    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>

    struct bar {
    int paydirt;
    };

    struct foo {
    int some_field_here;
    struct bar cheap_dirt;

    operator bar &() {
    return cheap_dirt;
    }
    };

    void work_on_paydirt (struct bar &object) {
    printf("Teh paydirt is %i\n", object.paydirt);
    }

    struct foo the_foo;
    struct bar the_bar;

    int main () {
    work_on_paydirt(the_foo);
    work_on_paydirt(the_bar);
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
    }

    I just want work_on_paydirt, for historic compatibility reasons, to take struct bar * rather than struct bar & as its argument. Logic-wise, maintenance-wise, there's no difference. Even the generated code is exactly the same (modulo the mangled names). But C++ syntax is only happy to let me define an explicit conversion operator for a struct-to-struct-reference, and not for the same struct's pointer to a struct pointer. I'm not trying to do anything exotic here, or type punning or obfuscatory stuff; I just want the translator to implicitly invoke my type converter for a pointer-to-struct type, just like it can for a referenced-struct type.

    Destroying Autocracy – November 13, 2025Welcome to this week’s “Destroying Autocracy”.It’s your source for curated news affecting democracy in the cyber arena with a focus on protecting it. That necessitates an opinionated Butlerian jihad against big tech as well as evangelizing for open-source and the Fediverse. Since big media’s journalism wing is flailing and failing in its core duty to democracy, this is also a collection of alternative reporting on the eternal battle between autocracy and democracy. We also cover the cybersecurity world. You can’t be free without safety and privacy.FYI, my opinions will be in bold. And will often involve cursing. Because humans. Especially tech bros. And fascists. Fuck ’em.The Programmer’s Fulcrum is the future (and smaller) home for a fusion of Symfony Station and Battalion. Its tagline is Devs Defending Democracy, Developing the OMN.You can sign up now and for 2025 get an email with links to and featured articles for each week’s Symfony Station CommuniquĂ© and Battalion “Destroying Autocracy” post along with their featured articles. And you’ll be set with TPF after the fusing.We are posting on the Fediverse now at @thefulcrum @thefulcrum.dev and original website content will start in 2026.Featured Item(s)Wrekage/Salvage writes:Once you’ve seized the tools of political life to build communal power, it’s hard to forget what a hammer feels like in your hand.Bonfire Networks is a tiny software org that has spent the past couple of years building a framework for communities on the open social web. At the end of last week, they released Bonfire Social, a microblogging app.Like Mastodon, Bonfire Social runs on ActivityPub, but it takes differently opinionated approach to sociability.(It has) features I (and many others) have been advocating for in Fediverse software for years, often while people explained at length that such things simply could not be implemented.Most exhilarating to me, though, is that they aren’t just building another microblogging app. They’re making a toolkit for internet community software that is healthy and good and designed around real human needs from the start.As they put it in their crowdfunding campaign, they’re making building blocks for communities on the open social web.Sparks fly upTotal awesomeness that needs to blow up.

    Honestly? Neither am I. This post is mostly a trial balloon to see what people think about the abstract high level idea of potentially talking cross-protocol with BlueSky users.
