Before You Lecture Us About C++… Try the Hell of Designing a Language!

Criticizing C++ as just “unsafe” ignores the key engineering trade-offs behind language design. Building a systems language reveals how difficult it is to balance speed, freedom, safety, and simplicity. Rust proves that stronger compile-time guarantees are valuable, while C++ offers disciplined tools and zero-cost control. Criticism should compare guarantees, costs, and design choices—not slogans.

The Battle for Hardware Control: Does C Outperform C++ and Rust in Low-Level Programming?

All three languages—C, C++, and Rust—offer equal low-level hardware control, so C isn't technically superior. The real difference is philosophy: C gives absolute freedom but no safety; C++ adds abstractions while keeping power; Rust enforces safety through unsafe blocks. Choose based on project needs, not raw capability.

C++… The Language You Can Build a Language With—and Bring a Dream to Life

C++ turns ambition into working tools. Since April 2025, I have used it to build ForgeAssembler, a high-performance systems language, and a dedicated editor for ForgeVM.org. With CLion, CMake, GCC, wxWidgets, and Scintilla, the project brings together native performance, zero-cost abstractions, and memory safety—showing why C++ remains a remarkable language for building languages.

From the “MyLang” Folder to ForgeLang - The story of a dream that began in 2000 and became a real programming language a quarter of a century later

The dream of ForgeLang began in 2000 within a small folder named MyLang, following the disappearance of GLPro, a language I deeply loved. After twenty-five years of attempts and study, I built ForgeAssembler as the foundation for a modern, fast, and safe systems programming language that approaches C-level performance without hidden costs. With the help of artificial intelligence, the dream became a real project that I plan to release as open source in the first quarter of 2027, supported by an integrated ecosystem of libraries and production tools.

ForgeLang Is Approaching: Promising Early Results for a Language Designed to Combine C-Level Speed with Modern Language Capabilities

ForgeLang is a new systems programming language designed to combine C-level speed and ABI compatibility with modern language features. Early tests show 63,206 us versus C at 64,736 us, Microseconds. Built on ForgeAssembler, it targets low-level development, memory safety without GC, and introduces the FNM Nucleus model as a simpler alternative to traditional OOP. An experimental release is coming soon.

Clash of Generations... Who Has the Upper Hand? - Open Source Between Serving the Community and Protecting the Creator’s Rights

Open source has transformed software by spreading knowledge and accelerating innovation, but creators should not be expected to surrender years of work without value in return. A project can remain protected until it matures, then open selected parts strategically. Employment builds experience, but creative engineers should eventually use that experience to build something they also own.

AI and Me — What We Can Do

AI is transforming software development. In my own experience, decades of programming knowledge combined with AI let me build in weeks what once required teams, major funding, and months of work. The future belongs not to AI alone, but to skilled developers who know what to build, how to guide AI, and how to judge, refine, and deploy its results.

From FlashCode to AI: Forty Years of Programming Between Deep Understanding and Rapid Production

From a non-working Sinclair and BASIC on MSX to FlashCode and today’s AI, my 40-year programming journey shows how tools keep raising abstraction and accelerating creation. AI can now replace weeks of coding and huge costs, but speed must not replace understanding. The real advantage comes from combining human knowledge, experience, judgment, and curiosity with AI’s extraordinary productivity.

From Hand-Built DOS Interfaces to Modern GUIs: How C++ User Interface Programming Has Changed

From DOS to modern GUIs, interface programming evolved from manually drawing controls and handling input to using standardized widgets, events, and reusable frameworks. Tools such as wxWidgets, Qt, and VCL provide complete GUI components, while SDL3 and SFML3 focus on graphics, input, and multimedia, leaving developers more freedom to build custom interfaces.
