@SandorDargo There is a problem with the leanpub link

After a decade in tech, I’ve seen workplace stories reveal more about people than process. The Collapse of Care is fiction — not autobiography — but many will find the themes familiar. 👉 Out now: Amazon: amazon.com/dp/B0FT75RZRG Leanpub: leanpub.com/thecollapseofc…

Last week I had a great time at @CppCon for the first time in person. Let me share my trip report with you: #my-favourite-ideas" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sandordargo.com/blog/2025/09/2…

@CppCon, is where people forgo a sleep-in or a chilled breakfast to attend open-content talks starting before 8 AM. Let's learn about The Evolution of a Logging Library by Ben Deane

Earlier this year at @cpponsea I was eager to attend John Lakos’s talk. At the last minute, however, I had to skip it—since I was giving my own talk at the same time. Now, at @CppCon , I’m fortunate to finally have the chance to learn from him about What C++ Needs to Be Safe.

Day 1 at @CppCon : what an experience! A huge venue buzzing with people. I’ll save the C++ insights for my trip report, but here’s a moment I’ll never forget — Bjarne doing final checks for his keynote while a live band played.

Last week, I had an amazing time at @cpponsea ! Let me share my trip report with you! sandordargo.com/blog/2025/07/0…

I'm heading to the English coast from the French Riviera— and bringing namespaces with me! Super excited to speak at @cpponsea  this June about “Namespaces 101”. If you’ve ever cursed at a name collision (or deeply nested namespace), this talk is for you. See you in Folkestone!

@GergelyOrosz At Spotify, you can work fully remotely. It’s your choice

What mid-size and larger tech companies are *still* full-remote? Lots of ones with 100+ devs went back to hybrid. Which ones remain? Ones I know of: - Shopify - Airbnb - Coinbase - GitLab - Mozilla - Grafana - DuckDuckGo Which other ones?

I write a lot. Usually about tech. But I decided to broaden my horizon. I just published a travelogue from our journey to Vietnam in 2019: leanpub.com/vietnamadventu…
