I am right there with you, you know if everything just works I feel suspicious and then descend to well back in my day we had to hand compile kernel modules to get a webcam to work 🤣

Full English, did my country proud

First walk of the year, got the whole family out

Great to see you here too! I just started in a new role at NVIDIA today

I want to follow this research project carefully, important work!

That looks amazing, I think I am going to have to try and make this now!

Good to see so many people moving here!

A day in the city, Macy's is all decorated. Great to hang out and have a few drinks after work!

I am drinking...

I voted

Woke up shivering 🥶 and now I am too hot 🥵 Can confirm I still get side effects 😔

5G firmware upgrade! They went all out with different plasters for flu and covid boosters. Wondering if this is the year I avoid side effects?!?

CMake and import std Exploring recent advances in the import std progress for C++ modules in CMake/C++

A long-delayed post about importing the standard library in C++ using the latest CMake 3.30 release and a recent Clang 18.1.8 toolchain. It works (mostly) and continues to improve! I linked to a few accompanying commits where you can see the details too cryos.net/2024/10/cmak...

Toy Projects and Lego A tangent on the importance of toy projects and Lego

A bit of a tangent on the importance (in my opinion) or toy projects, pointers to past posts on C++, CMake, C++ modules, packaging, C++ with a columnar database and some hints at areas I hope to find time to dig into more in the future plus Lego! cryos.net/2024/02/toy-...

DuckDB and C++ I heard about DuckDB a few years ago and finally got around to taking a look

First baby steps looking at using DuckDB in a simple C++ application. It looks cool and I am certain that I am missing the best path. Still I got an in memory database linking to the library and making a few calls, and it looks easy to deploy cryos.net/2024/02/duck...
