Microsoft_craziness.h
Here's the equivalent code in Zig, in case you want a still-maintained, up-to-date file. It's just called "windows_sdk.cpp".

Why are arithmetic errors (like overflow and division by zero) runtime panics?
There is an effort here to explore avoiding stack time overflow. I know it's different from arithmetic overflow, but I just like how audacious it is in a compiler to try to tackle things like this: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/1639

Ask HN: Alternatives to Rust Programming Language
zig is not safe. it's more "ergonomic" so theoretically it's harder to write bugs than in c, but out-of-bounds accesses, use-after-frees and such can still happen because of programmer error in well-formed zig programs.
- When you program in another language what is your approach compared to C++ and what are your main daily tasks or job responsibilities as a C++ programmer ? database ? networking ? something else ?

The Race to Replace C & C++ (2.0)
Being that both myself and Andrew have both created languages (Odin and Zig, respectively), and are using the languages now full time (EmberGen being written in Odin), I think we are far from being "armchair" critiques and actually trying to make alternatives.
Lucky Odin is a systems-level programming language with huge control over custom memory allocators and memory layout, as well as Zig.

How did you learned to re-implement your own containors (`Box`, `Vec`, …)?
And the cool thing is, languages like Rust make this much more accessible and safe. Although I would suggest using a language like Zig (where every heap allocation is explicit, etc.) to get really familiar with the low-level, as Rust abstracts quite a bit of that away (Zig is a better C, whereas Rust is a better C++).
