I wrote a C++ book! Think @CppQuiz, but more practical and better written. Out now on @pragprog, with a foreword by @olvemaudal. Blog: blog.knatten.org/2024/06/12/i-w… Get the book: pragprog.com/titles/akbrain…

I'm the guest of the week on @cppcast! I chatted with @phil_nash and @timur_audio about @CppQuiz's recent move to C++23, my book C++ Brain Teasers, a bit about safety, the future of C++, and more. cppcast.com/tease_your_cpp…

Episode 394 of CppCast is live! @timur_audio and @phil_nash are joined by @knatten to talk about cppquiz.org and his C++ Brainteasers book. Listen now:

@JamesMcNellis Ours is single-handedly saving the environment, though!

I bought a coke for the train this morning and every time I took a sip I was reminded of this meme.

@kobi_ca I know you blocked me, but maybe you can see this message through @sdcppmu. I don't appreciate you accusing me of untrue things and then blocking me without allowing me to reply. If you unblock me I can explain what I meant. It's not what you say.

To anyone promoting the idea that there was a "pogrom" in the Netherlands last night or that these people were attacked simply because they were Jewish: Here's some context.

@AvivaKlompas There is absolutely nothing in that clip supporting your claim.

@StopAntisemites @kobi_ca "One man is heard pleasing “I’m not Jewish”. He was beaten regardless." Maybe because this wasn't a pogrom, maybe they were not attacked because they were Jewish? Did you see the actions of the Israeli hooligans earlier that night? Do you think that could be what provoked this?

Shocking pogroms against Jews in Amsterdam - fans of Maccabi Tel Aviv report that the attacks were premeditated by groups of Arabs. They gathered in clusters of 5 to 10 in alleys and key exits from various train stations, particularly around Dam Square and the streets near Israeli hotels. They had precise information on where to wait, and as soon as they spotted Israelis, they attacked with knives, bats, and other weapons, with some reports of vehicles with Palestinian flags involved in hit-and-run incidents. The police left Maccabi fans unaccompanied after they exited the Johan Cruyff Arena, providing no escort from the moment they boarded the trains to their hotels. One man is heard pleasing “I’m not Jewish”. He was beaten regardless. It took the police nearly an hour and a half to respond, and many fans recorded police vehicles standing idle while the Arab crowd not only attacked but also threw fireworks into hotels where Israelis were hiding. One fan, who managed to escape after a terrifying hour reached Amsterdam Airport covered in blood and injuries, expressed his frustration, saying, "The Dutch police sold us out to let the Arabs lynch us." Israel’s Prime Minister ordered the immediate release of two rescue planes to assist the citizens. Is this 1939 Germany or 2024 Amsterdam?!

The only analysis of the 2024 US election you need to hear.

Trump is the kind of politician that will tell you what you want to hear to get your vote and then do whatever he wants to do after

We just forward declared, I mean published, a new question! cppquiz.org/quiz/question/…

If you haven't decided yet who to vote for, here's why I think you should vote for Harris.

In case you missed it, check out our new video from C++ on Sea 2024! How Linux Elf Symbols Work and How They Are Used in C++ and C Programming - by @knatten youtube.com/watch?v=X2jFje… #Coding #Cplusplus #Cpp #cpponsea

If you still believe what Israel is doing is ok, I suggest adding this data point to your evaluation: edition.cnn.com/2024/10/28/mid…

My talk "How Symbols Work and Why We Need Them" from @cpponsea is finally out on YouTube! Go watch it to learn more about how your programs work under the hood.

We just published a new question! It has a goto :V cppquiz.org/quiz/question/…

I watched this 11 times and I can’t stop!!

Here's my message to young people: you wouldn't let a bunch of old people decide what music you're going to listen to or what clothes you're going to wear – so don't let them decide your future. Make a plan to vote today: IWillVote.com/Obama

@blelbach Your hologram at NDC TechTown was amazing, though!

You got me. I'm too American to actually go to Europe. So my coworkers developed a ray tracing engine to generate the images I need to complain about Europe!
