I got a complementary copy of my new @OReillyMedia book Introducing C++

Fran, congratulations!
But you look a little indifferent to the prospect of being introduced to the world of C++, right?

@DanielaKEngert @OReillyMedia I never could get the hang of smiling in photos. I am glowing inside though

@fbuontempo @OReillyMedia

I totally understand this.

Smiling to the camera was quite a challenge to me as well when we took the official C++26 committee pictures in "definitely Kent" Croydon. 🙄

@DanielaKEngert @OReillyMedia lots of punk bands started there in the 1970s. Not all bad :-)

@fbuontempo

You mean "Siouxie & the Banshees", right?
Billy Idol wasn't my favourite when still with Generation X, I liked his music more after he started his solo career.
