I think I'll host a Zoom tomorrow to present the Safe C++ stuff I've been working on. I need to get informed people up to speed with what I have so there can be a discussion on some of the finer, unresolved points about integrating safety into C++.

How does 10am EST sound?

RETWEET if you are cis and know that #CisIsNotASlur.

@code_report @ben_deane @phil_nash @tristanbrindle @odinthenerd I gave a talk back in 2018 with a similar definition: https://t.co/ftWxOKZFO5

@TaeKahn @code_report I don't follow, what did you mean to write then? Note that omitting the & operator will still take the function's address.

[Toby Allsopp @toby_allsopp]

@TaeKahn @code_report Not sure if you're aware, but it is not permitted to take the address of standard library functions (with a few exceptions). See https://t.co/tD0NdwfcHn

@meetingcpp The indexes are not correct. If you fix that then it's the same as visit (and can be simplified to use get rather than get_if): https://t.co/Jz77rAhwpf

@ericniebler If you want to keep all of the conflict resolutions from the commit you've already made, you can do `git merge -s ours <commit-hash>` to create a merge commit that doesn't make any actual changes.

I have spoken at CppCon in the past. I will not do so again, or attend, unless this is sorted out satisfactorily. I fully support Patricia's stance on this and have signed her open letter.

@parsley72 @michtiecpp @auckland_cpp Me too :(

[Toby Allsopp @toby_allsopp]

Yes, it was great to reconnect. Thanks for organising it, Paul.

@tvaneerd This reminds me of a video about the code review process at Jane Street, where they talk about committing the review comments themselves as comments in the source code. https://t.co/5d9bBzCvnG

Here's a progressive coupon for my book, C++ Best Practices, good for 36 hrs from now.

The coupon starts at 9.99 USD. For each retweet this gets, I'll reduce the price by 0.01 USD.

The maximum reduction is 700 retweets @ 2.99 USD for the book!

@parsley72 I've _definitely_ never done that...

[Toby Allsopp @toby_allsopp]

@TartanLlama @seanbax The problem (well one of the problems) you'll run into is that with c++ coroutines you can't invoke the continuation more than once, which I imagine is needed for parsing lists, for example. Maybe you can avoid that when using parser combinators?

[Nick Sarten @NickSarten]

I'm looking for people excited about working with Rust to join me in developing performant software for photographers, get in touch if this sounds like you! Based in Auckland, NZ.
