I voted. So can you. If you are in line to vote when polls close you can legally vote & your vote counts so don't leave. If someone gives you trouble, call protectthevote.net/ for help. Not voting is like voting for whoever you like less. Someone will still win. So vote.

Something people tend to gloss over or forget these days is that the oath someone taking a position of public trust (whether becoming a judge, becoming a political office holder, becoming a military officer, or becoming a lawyer) is an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.

Submitted the next revision, R9, of C++ 2D graphics for the Cologne meeting and finally booked my plane ticket. Text and command lists are the 2 major additions. More text features to come in R10. See you in Germany! github.com/cpp-io2d/io2dts/b… #cpp

If you ever run into a similar issue and you know you have the correct libraries installed with vcpkg, run a clean solution then clear the CMake cache. Probably was just the CMake cache. #vcpkg

Seems like it was just an issue with the particular target architecture. Ugh.

Looking for help. Anyone know which vcpkg port provides lzma.lib ? #vcpkg #visualcpp

Two soul pacifying songs: "Flim" by Aphex Twin, and "Cast Your Fate to the Wind" by the Vince Guaraldi Trio.

In case anyone is curious, the next revision of the proposal to create a TS for a standardized C++ 2D Graphics library, P0267R9, will be presented at the Cologne meeting of WG21 in July. It will be substantially complete for output, including a text API. Yes, including text!

Working away on the continuing effort to create a C++ 2D graphics standard... :)

The winners of the tax law are People. The losers are people.

So our infrastructure is in a bad state (I completely agree as do many business leaders). Therefore we must fix it (also agree). We'll do so after giving most of a $1.5 trillion tax cut to huge corps and Scrooge McDucks. Where's the money to fix it coming from? ... ?

I'm delving into a realm of template metaprogramming that is of the "abandon all hope, ye who enter here" level. 頑張ろう.

Deep in the code mines. Testing interfaces that will go into the 2D graphics proposal. Coming up on four years now. Great years! #c++

Nothing like a Friday night spent hunting down LaTeX errors. :)

Ah, awk I missed you. I love the Windows Subsystem for Linux: blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/wsl… . Unimaginable even 5 years ago. #Windows10 #Linux

United: Come fly the traumatic skies. Seriously used to be my favorite airline. Fire the CEO. #accountability #boardofdirectors #united

.@Crunchyroll allow me to introduce you to @azure . I'm quite certain that Azure can solve your Saturday night One Piece bandwidth issues.

.@Crunchyroll "The engineers are aware of the problem" seems like an empty statement. Fix it. I can recommend folks who can if you need.
