Samuel L. Jackson looking like a million bucks with a suit with subtitle "Write ISO C++ Paper". The same actor looking a bit crazy and disheveled with a tank top with subtitle "Discuss in committee". Implication is that you feel good writing a fantastic paper, but the relentless and unfriendly critiques one gets in committee puts one in survival mode.

My observations on the isocpp survey results: 7.9% of respondents said "Interop with memory-safe languages (e.g., Rust, Go, C#, Java)" is a tool relied on for managing code safety in C++. 20% of respondents said Rust is used in their current and recent projects, up from 18.37% last year.🧵

Regular Americans stand up for what is right when the need arises. Dr. Seuss is one of those. 🧵

Such a poor version of the chart of this topic that's become a cult classic

I'm trying to make sense of the bill that just got passed in the Senate. www.congress.gov/119/bills/hr... is the text and it applies to this document: www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/PL... Here are some of my findings so far...

Memory safety disinformation abounds - Profiles make C++ memory safe. They don't. - Memory safety plans involve rewriting all your C++ code. Wrong. - Rust is just as unsafe because of its 'unsafe' keyword. Untrue. - Memory safety is no longer a concern because Trump. False.

4 of my kids saw NJ drones last night during a ride home. They saw about a dozen and at one point saw nine in a cluster. At another point one hovered close and it was, indeed, about the size of a car. So, yeah, it's a thing.
