Why You Should Use std::for_each over Range-based For Loops by Jon Kalb

From the article:

I’d like start by thanking Jonathan for creating and maintaining the FluentC++ blog, for the conversations that it spawns, and for letting me contribute with this guest post. Jonathan has invited me to add my thoughts on his previous posting, Is std::for_each obsolete?

cpp.chat Episode #47 with Nico Josuttis

Each week, or thereabouts, Jon and Phil chat with guests from the C++ community about what they’re doing, what interests them, and what’s going on in the world of C++.

Episode 47 - We Made It Even Worse

by Jon Kalb and Phil Nash

About the episode

This week we’re joined, once again (yet for the first time) by Nicolai Josuttis, and we talk about how much of a C++ expert you need to be to write “Hello, World” and initialize objects. We also discover how strongly Jon feels about initializer_list constructor syntax - and what Nico thinks about it.

Milestone | New Home | Trip Reports—Jon Kalb

The conclusion of this year cppcon.

Milestone | New Home | Trip Reports by Jon Kalb

From the article:

At the formal closing of CppCon 2018, we took a moment to consider how far we’ve come in the first five years of the conference. Those years have seen us grow in so many ways. Since our first conference, we’ve added classes, field trips, author signings, exhibitor tables and booths, Tool Time, and the SG14 co-located ISO meeting. The number of main program sessions has grown by about fifty percent to almost one hundred fifty. The number of Open Content sessions has doubled to about two dozen. The number of conference days (including classes) has doubled from four and a half to nine and the number of attendees has doubled from about six hundred to over twelve (...)

Simplicity in C++ Code (Podcast)
▻https://www.fluentcpp.com/2018/07/20/simplicity-in-cpp-code-design-podcast

Last week, Jon Kalb and Phil Nash, the organizers of C++Chat, invited Kate Gregory and I on the show to discuss “Simplicity” in C++ code, and in designing code in general. We had a very interesting discussion, that includes topics such as: how to measure complexity, coupling in code, levels of abstraction, the hard decisions […]

Developing Talk Ideas

From the post:

...the insight that I’m sharing is that the best way to develop presentation ideas is to be engaged with the community. The ideas that are exciting the rest of the community are going to spark something in you as well.

A Foolish Consistency—Jon Kalb
▻http://isocpp.org/feeder/?FeederAction=clicked&feed=All+Posts&seed=http%3A%2F%2Fisocpp.org%2Fblog%2F2

A very interesting article that we should all read.

A Foolish Consistency by Jon Kalb

From the article:

Ralph Waldo Emerson famously said, “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.” I don’t think he was talking about code, but that statement couldn’t be more relevant to software engineers. I’ve experienced a scenario like this a number of time in my career: I’m sharing a new approach to writing code that offers some clear improvements to what we’ve been doing. Perhaps it is more readable, more efficient, or safer. But the response that I hear from colleagues is, “But we can’t do that here. We have <some large number> lines of code where we didn’t do it that way, so it wouldn’t be (...)
