Hey C++ Africa Twitter! Just wanted to send my semi-regular shout-out your way! I feel like I'm too connected with Europe and North America and not enough with Africa. If there's any upcoming conferences or events, let us know.

I'm going to be in Kenya and Ethiopia in August/September and I'd love to speak at some universities/meetups about CUDA and C++. If you know any groups that might be interested, let me know!

Is your header file meant for use by a C compiler? No? THEN STOP USING .H If I see .h I have to literally go and read the code to see what language it's in, I have no other choice. If I see something like .hpp, I know it's a C++ header file!

To me, programming is about the process of discovery, learning new things, proving and disproving my assumptions. Many programmers here seem to just believe whatever nonsense they heard one time.

Even nicer is if we avoid recursion and modify the vectors in-place instead...

Day 9 of #AdventOfCode was pleasantly straightforward! There are probably more efficient ways to do it but I think my #cplusplus solution is actually pretty nice
