5 years later, C++ coroutines still aren’t perfect for async, but that’s not the point. @ivan_cukic sees them as a flow-control feature that makes code cleaner & more expressive, even outside concurrency. Catch his talk today at @meetingcpp (10:20 am CET): hubs.la/Q03SdD100 Or learn from his book in the Meeting C++ bundle: hubs.la/Q03SdwdK0

Learning & knowing how to teach are @fbuontempo’s C++ superpowers. Ahead of @meetingcpp 2025, she joined Jens Weller to talk about learning by example and her upcoming keynote. Watch here: hubs.la/Q03P0fkG0 Her book is 45% off with code meetingcpp25 thru 11/23: hubs.la/Q03P0g2q0

Consider my book: pragprog.com/titles/fbmach/g…

Genetic Algorithms and Machine Learning for Programmers

Build artificial life and grasp the essence of machine learning. Fire cannon balls, swarm bees, diffuse particles, and lead ants out of a paper bag.

pragprog.com
I'm reading a review copy of a @ManningBooks book, Investing for Programmers by @StefanPapp . I've only just started, but it's well written. He's making a good job of defining terms. Looking forward to reading the rest. mng.bz/oKnD
