That website (threads.com) does not load properly on firefox on phone. Most of images are missing and layout is all messed up.

Just because its old doesn't mean it's more portable. If anything it makes me think it's even less portable.

What about encoding it in such way we dont need huge tables to figure the category for each code point?

It's not that complex if you remove all the stuff you don't use: https://godbolt.org/z/rM9ejojv4 .

Main things you would need to understand is specialization (think like pattern matching but compile time) and pack expansion (three dots).

> League of Legends runs on a custom game engine developed in 2009.

Developed by Sergey Titov (same engine that powers Big Rigs).

P1061 is in C++26 so you can instead do:

  const auto [...I] = std::make_index_sequence{};
  ((SetupInput(options, transport_manager, subscriber_queues[I], thread_pool, templated_topic_to_runtime_topic)),...);

yay!

Thanks for the list! It seems that unfortunately copyright applies to databases in EU.

I don't think you can copyright lists of publicly available information (iirc there was some case with phone numbers before). That being said, they also stole code...

Btrfs is something i originally wanted to use but other people were not fans of linux so custom ad-hoc tooling (RMAN) it was.
