    Hi! I'm a C++ engineer with 20+ years of experience. I can still never remember which way around `array[x][y]` the `x` and `y` should go.

    I just heard that Donald Knuth has used @CompileExplore and was "moderately impressed by it". And now my life is complete! :-)

    An excellent post by a GCC developer, asking to remove RMS from the steering committee. I wholeheartedly agree with Nathan, and thank him for taking the time to write such an email. I hope the @gnutools folks agree too. gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc/…

    I made a website on my personal lastname's domain and then later discovered people were using it as a noun/verb without knowing it. I went from obscure developer chap to somewhat famous (amongst C++ coders) all because of a memorable last name :)

    Need an awesome, blazing-fast C++ linker? Look no further than @rui314's fantastic "mold" linker. It's SO fast, making edit/compile/test cycles so much more pleasant: github.com/rui314/mold Rui is trying to do this OSS venture alone: PLEASE support if you can. 1/2

    I wrote some Rust today. It's been a while, and I enjoyed it. I definitely had a bit of "add a &, maybe?" approach to fixing things, but overall the error messages and compile times seemed pretty brilliant
