We have already accomplished a great deal. Compile-time C++ is already fully free of UB, which means a huge chunk of real-world C++ is already UB-free today.

This statement is so categorically ridiculous that I have no choice but to assume that Herb Sutter is deliberately trying to mislead people. I would be very surprised if even 5% of "real-world C++" occurred at compile time. In fact, I would be very surprised if even 5% of "real-world C++" was valid constexpr that just ran at runtime.

  • I was more thinking along the lines of having FOSS repos that are primarily used by me but which can accept external pull requests by anybody with a Github account.

    I like the idea of running my own machine for CI but I don't like the idea of having to become knowledgeable about avoiding exploits.

    Just self host an open source runner like woodpecker and you’ll never have to move again

    How painful is the setup and general maintenance/security?

    I'm considering the idea but I just don't want to deal with people abusing exploits in the actions that give them access to my LAN.

    I can't wait to try out the groundbreaking but still traditional and comfortable C++ Profiles that are going to be "designed", "verified", and "implemented" in the span of about 3 years by the sharpest minds on the committee operating under the assumption that everybody is out to get them and that this feature is not only absolutely essential to the survival of C++ but at the same time the result of pointless bureaucracy cooked up by the perverted minds that seek to corrupt our way of life.

    I am absolutely certain that I will be able to test out the feature in a functional compiler before the release of C++26.

    I can't define jerking but I know it when I see it.

    It's worth considering the original sub rules:

    • Original sources only, no manufactured jerk
    • No socialjerking (IMO this one is super critical to not just devolve politics spam)
    • No crazy people
    • No enthusiastic youngsters
    • No long unjerk threads
    • No implicitly untagged jerk (this will probably be hard to enforce since some replies seem to be serious)
