I just finished "C++ Memory Management Masterclass" by @patriceroy1.bsky.social and @cppevents.bsky.social . That was nice, two days of in-depth discussion of C++ details. An no one was talking about AI! Just human brains thinking. Thanks to @fbuontempo.bsky.social for bringing it to my attention.

Mein Opa hat einen Brief an @jaroslavrudis.bsky.social geschrieben. Nun finden wir keine Adresse. Weiß jemand, wo mein Opa seinen Fanpost hinschicken kann?

There’s so much happening right now, I thought I’d put together a running thread on the dismantling of #climate and research and knowledge infrastructure in the United States 🧵

Me every time reading about European initiatives trying to attract American researchers.

Hi, this puzzles me: When using "::delete" in C++ on a base pointer, virtual destructors are called correctly, but the delete function is passed a wrong size. Can someone explain? Is this a compiler bug?

Compiler Explorer - C++

class Base { double x; // base class size: 16 public: virtual ~Base() { fprintf(stderr, "~Base\n"); } }; class Derived : public Base { double a; // derived class size: 24 public: virtual ...

Today's advent of code was first semester linear algebra. The two given vectors define a new basis for the space. All there was to do is a change of basis. My solution: github.com/andreasbuhr/... I just completed "Claw Contraption" - Day 13 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode

Hey @jetbrains.com I just updated to CLion 2024.2.1. Now "Loading CMake project" takes forever. It's unusable.

I've completed "Plutonian Pebbles" - Day 11 - Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/11 Pretty happy with the runtime of 58ms for the second part. Solution: github.com/andreasbuhr/...

Another day of #AdventOfCode github.com/andreasbuhr/...

Day 5 of Advent of Code 2024 #AdventOfCode was easy, my solution: github.com/andreasbuhr/...

Fourth day of #AdventOfCode: I did a simple solution: github.com/andreasbuhr/...

Today some basic regexing in #AdventOfCode github.com/andreasbuhr/...

Second day of #AdventOfCode I only created a quadratic solution. A linear solution should be possible. github.com/andreasbuhr/...

I just tried Advent of Code for the first time. Advent of Code statistics say more than 19.000 people already solved today's puzzle. #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2024/day/1 Since today's leaderboard is already full, I can share my solution here: github.com/andreasbuhr/...
