We use the word 'foo' to convey no meaning. But that is the meaning it conveys. #PostModernProgramming

Sounds terrible, but makes sense.

Similarly you say this effect is caused by Venus, not the Venus.

In conclusion, the name of the moon is not Moon but The Moon. "The" is part of the name.

The real question is would I end up with production code at work that did

#ifdef GODBOLT
...

Just so I can cut and paste between the two (and handle subtle differences)

I've been considering the switch to 'not' instead of '!' in code.
ie

if(!someLong_expression(you, might, miss, theNegative))

vs

if(not someLong_expression(you, probablyWont, miss, theNegative))

But I *still* sometimes miss it.

So I've decided to make it really stand out using 'if (not! some...'

I spent a week doing a job at Disney, where every night from park close until 6am we were working beneath a crappy outdoor speaker that played "It's a Small World" on repeat.
Actually it was supposed to be a week, but we got done in three days because of that song.

Feel like old people sharing health issues..

My hobby: collecting pinched nerves in my back.

3 places. One too close to the spine to fix. It is the "fun" one because it causes mysterious random pains instead of back pain.

Anyhow, been there. Luckily mine are mild right now.

Sending all my care 💜

I am not currently in a movie theater, and I don't recall being at any theater that moved, transformed, collapsed, disappeared, etc, so I think
I've walked out of as many movie theaters as I have walked in.

OK, well I set it to do nothing, that's helpful (but having it compile was not an option)

Can Ctrl-S in @compiler-explorer.com just compile instead of downloading.

Ever since the days of before MSVC was called MSVC, I learned to hit save whenever I paused for a moment and thought the code was reasonable (because the editor could crash at any time).

Ctrl-S means "that might work"

C++ help:

struct FooTag{};
using FooInt = StrongType<int, FooTag>;

using BarInt = StrongType<int, struct BarTag>;

ie "inline" forward declaration in second case.

I recall that Foo is better than Bar, but I don't remember why.
IIRC, because of some subtle change in ADL (it's always ADL).

Anyone?

I don't know, but

Wait I do know - same as all other C++ questions: it depends

ie if it is important, then measure it.

Anyhow what I was going to say is

I don't know, but a compiler developer told me "bigger than you think"
