    Not the person you replied to, but like them, I too liked to draw imaginary maps when I was a kid, mainly of medieval towns. I also tend to like the world-building aspects of strat…

    There was a similar CppCon talk[0] in 2018. Highly recommended (by me, fwiw), as is any other talk by Richard Powell 0. https://youtu.be/Grveezn0zhU

    Even then, a new user account doesn't necessarily mean a new user. Every time I start on a new job, I have to click through Slack's, Github's and many other dev tools' stupid guide…
