Are there any range-v3 users out there? Does anybody care to become a maintainer? The project mostly needs someone to review and merge pull requests and occasionally deal with bitrot in the github actions CI jobs. Inglorious, to be sure. But a nice thing to put on your job resume.

I just had the opportunity to volunteer for a motor neuron study that, as I best understand it, will help with earlier diagnosis of #ALS. I encourage you to look for similar studies in your area! Only took a few hours of my life. #EEG #EMG mcmanuslab.com

#badhumanart 27 Devitt's Pub, Dublin. I'm disappointed in the blob of flowers in the middle, but otherwise happy with it! Join me in exercising human creativity. #notai #watercolor

Ep 543 - The constexpr Evolution of std::array youtu.be/T-d8l3s4Nx8

Struggling to deal with slop and manage PRs in your code base? This is your last chance to get my new book, "Make Bugs (nearly) Impossible" at a pre-release price for as low as $4.99 leanpub.com/makebugsnear... I'm known for C++ content - but this book is language agnostic.

Ep 542 - C++26's inplace_vector youtu.be/dD6PhTJLz08

Finally finished my redesign of the PATH map. I redid the current spaghetti-like map into one closer resembling a subway map with numbered buildings à la the Tokyo Metro Map. I've often seen tourists (or even longtime residents) try to use the PATH and just end up going back upstairs.

#badhumanart 26? Charleville Castle, Ireland. Site of "Wednesday" and a bunch of other stuff. #watercolor #noai Join me and practice some human creativity! Taken from a photo sphere shot, so it's a little wall eye perspective.

40 Years of C++ Programming and Embeddable Languages - Mark Guidarelli CppCast 409 / C++Weekly 541 youtu.be/ImjpGm05-KQ

Ok, I'm almost caught up to realtime with my #badhumanart #noai experiment to practice human creativity. This is attempt 25. I miscounted the last one. I'm less happy with this one. The proportions got wrong so I went more abstract overall. #watercolor

#badhumanart attempt 23 I think. #watercolor again. This is a little coffee shop in Folkestone, UK. I think this one turned out ok.

Ep 540 - Creating New Types with C++26's Reflection youtu.be/ZBqTr6YRROA

#badhumanart attempt 23. #notai I tried (and failed) to capture this awesome phonebooth I just saw in Folkestone, UK

Fable 5 - the AI that's so smart it's supposed to be dangerous to use? Yeah, it just confused `const`, `constexpr`, `consteval`, `constinit` and the concepts of "static initialization" and "constant initialization" You CANNOT blindly trust the AI tools!

Ep 539 - Modernizing C++ with AI youtu.be/SJ9Jm-K9bYU

FYI, I'll be speaking at the Dublin C++ User's Group tomorrow night! www.meetup.com/cppdug/event... I hope to see you there. (please sign up appropriately on the meetup page)

Share your #badhumanart and #notai. this is my attempt 22. This time I've included some of my process for how to get there, plus the photo I started from. I'm basically making my own coloring book, then filling it in! Koppelpoort, Amersfoort, NL. water and land gate 14-15c.

Ep 538 - Finding Memory Bugs at Compile time youtu.be/FZaoT7Kx_L0

My #badhumanart #notai attempt 21. It is #watercolor and ink painting of Malakoffturm in Cologne, Germany.

Attempt 20, #badhumanart #pixelart #noai this is a special edition Pepsi flavor of some sort. I was staring at it on the train and decided to make a version of it. Done with resprite on Android.

More #notai #badhumanart. Join me! #watercolor and #clay. Orca. I'm actually kind of proud of these ones. Attempt 16. Bonus #pixelart orca also.
