Has the Age of DLLs Ended?
Dynamic linking once saved scarce memory and storage, but it can now cause missing-file failures, ABI conflicts, security risks, and vendor dependence. Modern applications should be self-contained by default: statically link private libraries when practical, bundle required dynamic libraries, and reserve dynamic linking for secure, well-versioned extensions and system components where necessary!

The Most Dangerous Thing a Learner Can Face: Working Hard in the Wrong Direction
Working hard is not enough if a learner is moving in the wrong direction. Before choosing courses or methods, study the field, ask experienced practitioners about its reality, test it in practice, and align it with your strengths and goals. The right direction compounds knowledge, opportunity, and influence; the wrong one can waste decades of sincere effort.

x86-64 Is Not a Dying Dinosaur
x86-64 is not obsolete: modern performance depends on microarchitecture, software, and workload—not the old CISC-versus-RISC label. ARM is a powerful and growing competitor, but x86-64 remains deeply established in servers, gaming, and workstations. Its vast ecosystem and advances such as APX, AVX-512, AVX10, and AMX continue to unlock major performance and AI capabilities.

The End of the Average Programmer: The Market Has No Mercy on Those Who Fear AI—or Surrender to It
Programming jobs are not disappearing, but the era of the average, replaceable programmer is ending. Blind dependence on AI creates fragile developers who cannot verify or repair their work, while rejecting AI sacrifices speed. The future belongs to skilled programmers who understand deeply, review rigorously, use AI as a productivity tool, and accept full responsibility for every result they own.

The Programmer's Mind in the Age of AI: Between Digital Euphoria and Cognitive Suicide
The article warns programmers against blind reliance on generative AI. Ease causes atrophy of algorithmic thinking and programming intuition, because models simulate understanding without possessing it. The solution: use them as a helpful tool, not a replacement, review every piece of code manually, understand before adopting, and go deep in your specialty. Whoever does this becomes a super programmer, and whoever surrenders turns into an operator without understanding. Protecting the next generation is your responsibility. Be the master of the machine, not its slave.

The Retired Software Engineer: Does His Struggle with Solutions Qualify Him for Life Consulting?
Retired software engineers bring rare analytical thinking and systematic problem-solving, valuable in organizational consulting, project management, technical arbitration, and risk analysis. However, life problems involve emotions and subjectivity beyond programming logic, so they must stay humble and focus only where their expertise truly fits.

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.
