@PatriceRoy1 My philosophy has always been "if it seems complicated, step back, take another approach, there's a simpler solution somewhere"

@lefticus It takes hundreds of pages to explain most things when you look at the details in-depth, and not just in C++ :)

The only way to see how I Fixed Move Semantics is to come to C++Online next week! cpponline.uk/session/2026/i…

In response to AI, I've decided to start making #badhumanart join me and exercise some human creativity! attempt #1 clay modeled ant

Ep 523 - Why I'm Still Using std::cout (on this channel) youtu.be/TreruByxQWE

@PatriceRoy1 If it takes a 250 page book to explain them... Something was broken

@lefticus I want to know what was broken now :)

@CompoundAssign Gotta come and see!

@lefticus I'll eat the Starbar I will from now on occasionally wear as a hat if this doesn't involve Reflection...

@MatRopert I just had this problem while in Canada (although for some reason my phone kept saying UK, but you know...)

Spent the weekend in the UK and my apps randomly started to try to age verify me. Absolutely cursed.

Ep 522 - Don't Remove Code. =delete it! youtu.be/gwwxD_l9T28

Canadian C++ Programmers! I'll be doing a workshop in Toronto soon! Come to my C++ Best Practices workshop in May 5-6, 2026. We'll discuss what good clean C++ can and should look like. ndctoronto.com/workshops/c-be…

Part 9 of my blog series "What Makes A Game Tick?" has just been published! Today we build a parallel task scheduler to run our tick on multiple threads just by looking at their function signatures. mropert.github.io/2026/02/27/mak…
