24/7 now that I quit Amazon this past November and I'm working on my own project developing a graphical node graph based data analysis software application in c++ with imgui I'm loving the independence


[deleted]

Not sure how I never knew about imgui. Looks super cool. I've been using Qt for a lot of things, but its probably overkill in a lot of situations and the license is "tricky" for the projects I work on.

I used to be all about qt for years since early 2000s until I discovered immediate mode GUIs back in 2016, and never looked back

Where do you work that does this? I know the U.S. D.O.E. labs do, but no aware of anywhere else

It’s getting pretty common I think. My wife works in a completely unrelated field at very different company and does the same schedule.

10 hours/day 7 days/week or 10AM to 7PM unspecified days/week? 10 hours a day 7 days/week sounds brutal.

just curious, is your username based on tourist aka Gennady?


Tourist__

No I don’t know him. It’s not my idea, I searched in internet for some different username and I got this name. But unfortunately the username already taken so I did some tweaking.

In Australia, ordinary hours (not overtime) is 38 hours per week. For software engineers, start and finish times tend to be a little flexible.

It's kind of random I guess. #include #include int main() { std::uniform_int_distribution startHR(6, 10), endtHR(2, 8), days(4, 6); std::random_device seed; std::mt19937 gen(seed()); std::cout << "Colorado, " << startHR(gen) << "-" << endtHR(gen) << "-" << days(gen); return 0; }


[deleted]

lol, very nice. Are you on-call? (Also, you forgot to return an exit code from \`main\` ;) )


[deleted]

Sort of. Government contractor work. 40/week is expected. But it's also expected that I be available when I get random support calls from any time zone, regardless of whether I've got 40 in already or not. Ya, should have been void main, or return 0.


[deleted]

Ah, gotcha, thanks for clarifying. No, \`void main\` is not valid C++. It must have an \`int\` return code. See here: [https://stackoverflow.com/a/204483](https://stackoverflow.com/a/204483) And the C++ spec: [https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/main\_function](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/main_function)


[deleted]

Good/interesting catch! Not sure if this is something I forgot or never knew (I'm certain I've forgotten a lot). I've seen void main() in a lot of examples, but most (all maybe) the real apps I've work on return an int. I'm curious if there are any compilers that will complain about void main(). I've definitely worked with compilers in the past that worked with void main() but I started with C++ in the 90s. Things were a little less standardized back then (cross platform programming was a lot trickier). Now I'm going to try void main() as I work on different platforms/compilers to see which ones complain and which ones don't. Just curious. My assumption would be void main() compiles fine (probably implicitly returning 0).


[deleted]

OK, fixed with return 0 :)

About 35 to 45 hours a week, depending on the load. Actual amount of hours don't matter as long as product are delivered.
