> it would be better for a male fan of the book to just hold his tongue and not try to deny that female reader’s experience
This argument is at odds with the core idea of feminism of equality between genders. You are insinuating that a female reader would not be equipped to judge herself the "male fan's" comment.

There's a tool for this nowadays: `clang-format`.

You do get all that today already. The various Cortex'es are supported rather well + gdb in combination with a JLink gives you the debugging interfaces you need.

Re:Why we’re changing Flickr free accounts

SmugMug allows a custom domain. I'd argue that it's more private / less community oriented than SmugMug. Depends on what you want I guess; I've read about many people using 500px to upload some of their best shots as a portfolio & using smugmug for the rest.

This looks interesting. Does it support import from the SmugMug API or from other sources?

Re:Modern C++ Features – std::optional
on Tuesday June 12, 2018 @03:18PM (#17296952)
GCC moved it to <optional> with the release of GCC7.
Note that we're now at GCC8, clang 4 added it - I believe we're now at clang 6.
Therefore, it's by far no longer something that's experimental IMHO. (standardised in C++17 after all)
Re:Modern C++ Features – std::optional
on Saturday June 09, 2018 @03:57PM (#17274681)
The worst part about this is that Apple has decided to once again violate the standard.
They purposefully eliminated the `value()` accessor due to ABI issues as far as I understand from the stack overflow comments: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44217316/how-do-i-use-st...
My recommendation would be to just use https://github.com/martinmoene/optional-lite for cross-platform stuff.
