the science of debugging, maybe I'll have to do a follow-up talk :).
@tabeatheunicorn @janwilmans One could call him "House, M.D. of #modernCpp" people lie, debuggers lie, do compilers lie? I am pretty sure Remi from @SolidSandsBV talked about it yesterday.

Not a hot take, but a bug. The benefits of const are absolutely incredible and have been well documented for the last 30 years. You get:. - more safe code.- less bugs.- expression of intent.- better local reasoning.- more readable code.
HOT TAKE: `const` shouldn't exist in C. It seems latest GCC 14+ and Clang are reporting `const char*` vs `char *` missmatch as compilation ERRORS! 😱. Is there some **proved** real benefit nowadays of `const usage? Please, let me know!.

RTX 3060 (2021) vs RTX 5070 (2025). What is going on here? How can you have more bandwidth with identical bus width and a lower clock?. Also, 12 GB on a 2025 Video card >500 euro? I'll pass.

It is not illegal to make something better, you just have to connect to a standard power block, that Everybody has. .
Good work, Europe, you just made it illegal to invent something better than USB-C.

Ik kwam er vandaag achter dat er mensen zijn die een handdoek maar 1x gebruiken!? what!? het is water mensen, en je bent net schoon gedoucht (of je hebt een douche probleem 😂, dan heb ik niks gezegd).
Ik kwam er achter dat er mensen zijn die langer dan één douchebeurt met een handdoek doen, en soms zelfs een week lang dezelfde handdoek gebruiken om zich af te drogen. Geshockeerd.

this! Survivor bias people. .
Why does every published study show the cockpit is never hit by bullets?

It's called survivor bias, it is missing data about unvaccinated people who died. So you're looking at the group of unvaccinated that survived.
Why does every published study show the unvaccinated to be healthier than the vaccinated?

Ridiculous statement, these things are novel tools but not nearly as valuable as the fundamental understanding of programming. Learn to do this yourself and then use tools to make your workflow more efficient.
If you are about to attend college and your programming classes do not mention generative AI or copilot. they are obsolete.
