I’m on my way back from the 2024 CppCon conference and my head is buzzing with ideas! What an amazing experience!

This was the first year CppCon was based out of a new venue, the Gaylord Rockies in Aurora, Colorado. First up: the Gaylord is huge! It was clear we had outgrown the previous venue in Bellevue, but there’s plenty of room to expand at the new venue. This changed the feel of the conference a little: I literally didn’t leave the hotel from Sunday evening through to Friday evening.

Most of the attendees also stayed in the hotel, which meant more opportunities to bump into other attendees. Food was good, but not exceptional, but, boy it was expensive! They know they have a captive audience!

Hey all! Since last time I’m glad to say I’ve landed a new job (more info to follow), and I’ll be starting in June.

Til then I’ve been hacking on Compiler Explorer, and as per the announcement on my Patreon page, I’ve been working on executing arbitrary user code! We’re really close to being able to turn that on!

I’ve been live streaming a lot of the development process, and you can see the prior streams in this playlist. If yo uwant to join me live, I’d suggest subscribing for notifications on my YouTube channel. It’s been a lot of fun, and I’ll miss it once I start my job, but I’m also super excited about that!

Hello friends.

A quick note on a big change: the office I worked at was closed on Tuesday and I was let go. All is well: my team and I were well-treated and I have plenty of opportunities to investigate.

Hello! As of today’s update, Compiler Explorer now has its own storage solution for when you click “Share” and pick “Short” from the dropdown. We used to store all the state in the URL itself, then we used goo.gl to shorten it. When Stack Overflow banned goo.gl, we rewrote goo.gl URLs to be godbolt.org/g/blah, where blah was the bit from goo.gl. So, your data was still stored with Google.

That’s all changed! Now short URLs are derived from data stored on the Compiler Explorer website itself. This has some very important changes:

• Centos系统下shadowsocks-libev服务端的一键安装脚本的 ...:2021-8-14 · 远程服务端则一般安装在基于 Linux 的各种发行版操作系统，比如 Debian， CentOS， Fedora， Redhat， Ubuntu， openSUSE等。 2、Shadowsocks 的作者是谁 最初只有 Python 版，由 @clowwindy 开发和维护，后来随着知名度提高，开始出现各种语言的 ...
• The limit on URL length which previously prevented some longer code snippets or more complex layouts from being shortened is now lifted. There’s no practical limit any more: though we might pragmatically have to put one in.
• The short link unfurling that happens when you paste a link into Slack, Discord, or Twitter is much improved.
• Compiler Explorer admins are now responsible for your data. We understand this is a huge responsibility and take it very seriously. We have a number of safeguards in place to keep everything as safe and secure as we can.

If you have any issues with the new system please get in contact as soon as possible. You can email me, or tweet at me, or direct message me on the Cpplang Slack.

It’s been oh-so-quiet here! I’ve been away on a long European holiday, visiting Iceland, United Kingdom, France and the Czech Republic. I’ve had a great time, but haven’t had as much time as I’d like otherwise to work on Compiler Explorer.

Explaining some of my views on C++

While in the Czech Republic, visiting the unimaginibly beautiful Prague, I was invited to speak at Avast, the anti-virus company. They have an amazing office and working environment: a music room (and studio), couches everywhere, great food, pinball machines, golf putting courses…you name it! Lovely folks too. In particular, huge thanks to shadowsock使用方法 for inviting me, and arranging everything and generally making it a pleasure to speak there. She’s now running a regular ishadowsock, which if you’re in Prague you should sign up for straight away!

As I’ve ishadowsock, I’m currently on a break between jobs. With my copious spare time I decided – rather late in the day – to head to C++Now, a C++ Conference held yearly in Aspen, Colorado. Several C++ folks had recommended that I come to it: it’s a smaller and more intimate conference than CppCon.

I was not disappointed! Firstly, Aspen is a beautiful place to hold a conference, although the thin air at 9,000 feet up takes a bit of getting used to.

The conference rooms used for C++Now nestle in a beautiful meadow.

Last week I took the momentous decision to wave goodbye to my friends and colleagues at DRW, and try something new.

I had an amazing 7½ years at DRW, learning so much and making some firm friends. DRW is an excellent company to work for, and this was the longest job I’d ever had. That made the decision to leave extremely hard, but I felt it was time to try something new.

I’m taking a few months off, and then I’m very excited to start work at Coinbase in the summer, where I will be working on making their exchange software even more awesome. I’ll be staying in the Chicago area, so disruption to my family is minimal.

In the next few weeks I’ll be spending a lot of time with my wife and kids, but I also hope to use the time to work on Compiler Explorer and other open source projects. And finally complete Zelda: Breath of the Wild too!

Compiler Explorer now has a logo!

If you like it and want to support Compiler Explorer, I set up an online shop where you can create your own T shirts, bags, mugs and so on! By doing so you’re supporting Compiler Explorer’s development, as I get a small commission for any sales. Of course, it’s all open source, so you can make your own with the logo too!
