    Anyone going to CppCon?

    Is anyone here planning to go to CppCon? I'll be giving a talk on cross-platform mobile development at Dropbox. I'll be there all week, so if you're going to be around, let me know!

    Considering that everyone thinks it's a great idea to host stuff half-way around the world, I'll not be attending.
    But I will be watching everything online afterwards.

    Hi everyone, our video is up! CppCon 2014: Alex Allain & Andrew Twyman "Practical Cross-Platform Mobile C++ Development" - YouTube

    The rest of the CppCon talks are being posted over time on the CppCon talk: https://www.youtube.com/user/CppCon

    There are lots of good ones. I particularly enjoyed Scott Meyers talk on type deduction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQxj20X-tIU

    Most of the slides for presentations are available on github too: https://github.com/CppCon/CppCon2014.../Presentations

    I don't know; a few of those Maybelline Moments had me thinking that he must be a living photoshop.

    After maybe 15 minutes, I ended up watching the "lion eats man" video suggested on the list to the right...
