[11:57] <waldo323> looking at the article from yesterday, are some of the items in the article in fact true or is it all made up?
[11:58] <waldo323> article from jrwren : http://www.bfilipek.com/2018/04/deprecating-pointers.html#
[12:42] <jrwren> AFAIK all of the items are true except for the main point of deprecating pointers.
[12:44] <jrwren> weak_ptr, optional, reference_wrapper, not_null, unique_ptr, shared_ptr are all in std or common ext lib and recommended to use over raw pointers wherever possible.
[12:44] <jrwren> shared_ptr in particular is the "use all" tool recommended these days.
[15:10] <waldo323> thanks jrwren it got me thinking how the most believable lies include a lot of truth
[15:17] <jrwren> well heck waldo323, you just described USA politics
[15:32] <waldo323> I've been well saturated
[15:36] <cmaloney> heh
[15:37] <cmaloney> crap w/ kernels pretty much describes a lot of shit

[20:24] <jrwren> anything new or special about this one? will there be fairing retreval attempt?
[20:24] <daemoneye> There will be no recovery of the first stage as they are trying a new return setup
[20:27] <jrwren> oh? interesting!
[20:27] <daemoneye> Yep
