Check out the local poetry scene. If you're in/near a big city it will almost certainly exist and you'll definitely be exposed to a whole host of new ideas from all sorts of socioeconomic strata. The events are generally fr

Vainglory Hearthstone is also a good one if you're more into CCGs. Prime World Defenders has gotten me lately too, though that's just a single-player game.

Header libraries are easier to add to your project because there are no build scripts to figure out or cross-compiling to do or whatever. A lot of Boost is header-only, for example. GLM (OpenGL Mathematics), too, is header-only. OTOH if yo

Well I had one of those 2011 MBPs that failed in this way...this was after my warranty expired and clearly before this repair was issued. They told me it would cost me like $350 or $400 or something to replace the motherboard on the thing.

That's definitely a nice addition. I also like the map::try_emplace and map::insert_or_assign suggestions.

I had a similar thought - also, what if the person is just graduating? I know IRC is still around, but I don't think it's nearly as widely known or used as it was back in the 90s and early 2000s.

I find shadow volumes tend to look better, at least cleaner anyway. Shadow mapping if not properly done can look glitchy and aliased. One surprisingly bad offender was Skyrim.
