I’m reading Black House, by Stephen King and Peter Straub. About half in the novel, I had some difficulties to be taken with it, but I start being hooked up, we will see… My opinion so far is that it’s not at the level of it’s prequel (The talisman, by Stephen King and Peter Straub) that I read just before and was very gripping.

If this reddit change did not occurred, I probably never had tried Lemmy (even if I’m in OSS world for 20+ years now). First thought is that I don’t think communities going black or mods leaving reddit will do anything to reddit, it’s so big and alternative are somehow a niche for geek that they will not loose most of their user base. For mods they’ll find out some way … On the other hand, I don’t care, I’m happy here on the fediverse, I participated more discussion here in 1 month than in years on reddit. I had bad experience on my first posts on reddit (probably not interesting enough for some and then downvoted a lot), and I think that I just always thought if my post will be appreciated or not and so and finally just didn’t post. I don’t have this feeling here.

Thanks very much for the language setting very appreciated 👍

Well I did a sort of poc I recompiled jerboa (in debug mode so I can keep official installed) after removing app/src/main/res/values-fr directory and I have this jerboa in English which I prefer, additionally there are layout issues with french version because the words do not correctly fit the allocated space on the screen, it looks far better in English. So if it’s possible to give a setting to change language for us poor old android users…

+1 Please give us the choice of the language in app, my phone won’t be updated to android 13 and I want to let it in french but I like IT related stuff to be in English… Otherwise I may perhaps fork and rebuild jerboa stripping out the translation files…

Not as good as the floppotron (https://youtube.com/@PaweZadrozniak), imho, but still very nice to look at, thanks for the link 🙂

One more I forgot is https://cppinsights.io : this online tool takes C++ code and output C++ code, the goal being to make the “magic” of the compiler visible (for example for(auto vi : std::vector…) is expended to iterators and the tool make it visible). It can help sometime when struggling with a difficult to understand issue.

Same as yours +

• https://wandbox.org : an alternative to God bolt, when just needing to quickly test something (no need for the disassembly and multiple options of godbolt)
• https://regex101.com/ : not specifically for c++ but useful as well

Some great blogs too:

• https://www.fluentcpp.com/ : unfortunately not maintained anymore but many great articles mainly on readability
• https://www.cppstories.com/p/start-here/
• https://www.modernescpp.com/index.php
• https://arne-mertz.de/ : simplify c++

One must see YouTube video: https://youtu.be/2olsGf6JIkU

Perhaps some others I’ll look tomorrow on my work computer.
