Re: "Can't convert arguments from initilizer to Loc" Snek Ga
The reason for this is that it is unable to determine a type, your attempting to construct a temporary, which can not be treated as a non-const reference, unfortunately MSVC is terrible for giving good error messages. Likely if you added the type before {} it would better hint at the issue.

Re: Problems with OutputDebugString
The builds are likely using unicode, you could use wstringstream instead or OutputDebugStringA (ASCII version)

Re: Integrating LUA
Q) How much does the C/C++ side of the application need to know about the script? As much as you want it to know about it, generally for scripting you want to abstract this way through some sort of interface. This isn't unique to just scripting but with any part of the code you should always think ...

Re: Integrating LUA
Additionally with most/all of those lists of things I've also worked with so feel free to also hit me up if your learning those.
Always useful to have someone doing the assets and design, lets you focus on the programming side.

Re: Integrating LUA
I've worked on various scripting language integrations (lua, python and mono/c#)
I suggest reading lots of tutorials, for ease of integration I'd suggest using Python instead lots of good libraries to help (e.g. boost, pybind11, etc)
Feel free to hit me up if your running into problems.

Re: How do you type?
I use standard qwerty with 10 fingers touch typing, I use the num pad occasionally. While qwerty is designed to slow you down most the time programming you are not typing nonstop so typing speed isnt too important.

Re: VS2015 Generates Slow Code (Again...)
It's probably less the compiler but more the standard library has more safety checks which makes it slower. You could do some profiling to find the hotspots

Re: Some benchmarking tests
it's hard not to want to write generally more optimized code upfront as opposed to write, test, refactor. This is easy enough to end up going down the directory of harder to read code; I find alot of people who focus on optimization completely neglect readability. This isn't just new people but pro...

Re: Game Programming University
Game degrees are very hit and miss, it depends more on the person then the degree; Instead I'd suggest getting a software engineering degree this will provide more opportunities, and even within the games industry can look better on a resume.
