A call for employer participation in the online C++ job fair in beginning of May.

If you have open positions to fill and/or are looking for C++ talent, don't miss the chance to hire through Meeting C++ events! Sponsors of the event will be listed in the CV Sharing form at Meeting C++ and receive CVs submitted by candidates directly through Meeting C++. This brings the advantage that you reach the many candidates that could not make it to the event. Further your logo and a paragraph or two about your company are listed on the website and advertised on social media. Free tables have 4 instead of 8 seats and will be listed below the sponsors. The free option is limited to the time of the event and companies can only participate twice with the free option. The last event had 71 candidates apply to the various sponsors of the event.

Why not to use the STL?--Jeremy Ong

Why do you think?

Twitter thread

by Jeremy Ong

From the thread:

With all the discussion on the STL, I wanted to make a quick thread to summarize the main reasons why many AAA studios (correctly) opt out of the STL. This isn't to say the STL isn't for *anyone*, but the reasons to avoid using it aren't unfounded either...
