It worked for me using the latest Chrome.
Like I said, STILL not a good experience for first timers.

Hi, I also used the latest Chrome; I filed a bug report on GitHub.

Unlike a computer, a human knows when looking at four cats, four apples and the symbol 4 that they all have one thing in common – the abstract concept of "four" – without even having to count them. 1,2,3,4,hrair
No Googling! (I had to as I didn't have a copy handy)

An interface member can now be specified with a code body, and if an implementing class or struct does not provide an implementation of that member, no error occurs. Instead, the default implementation is used. Because you can never have enough places to add code
I still think those should just be base classes, but whatevs.

Leslie Nielsen talked about this a month or two ago. It was generally decided that the community is split on the usefulness of such a feature. I personally think it's pointless.
I wonder if you can inherit from multiple interfaces if they all have default methods. If you can, this is handy for getting around the arbitrary single-class inheritance we have today.

You can ask "How tall is the tower in Paris?" and it knows what you're talking about. That was meant to be a compliment, right?

Is that before or after Paris is killed by Philoctetes?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

For software engineers, writing becomes becomes the tool to reach, converse with and influence engineers and teams outside their immediate peers. If only there were some place you could practice your writing skills?

True, but - I'm not sure how much of a correlation there is between the quality of the writing for an article and the article's impact in and on the CP community. I've seen articles with poorly-written text but were very popular due to the topic or the code. I've also seen well-written articles here that only heard crickets when it came to ratings.
Orosz makes a good argument, despite the typos and grammatical errors in his post  . It's almost stereotypical for engineers to hold soft skills like writing and public speaking in contempt. I've experienced prejudice from other engineers simply because I write in complete sentences and I'm not tongue-tied when speaking to a group. They only do themselves a disservice, however.
I've asserted myself more times than I can count to engineering management through considered writing and coherent speech - and achieved the result I wanted because of it.

I find it hard to communicate ideas to people because their attention spans are too short, and like you, I write in complete sentences, and without emojis. I also really like using Oxford commas.

The executive director of the Eclipse Foundation, Mike Milinkovich now believes that Microsoft is heading for a complete monopoly which might endanger other companies and projects like Eclipse IDE. I'd expect nothing else
If I had a choice between Eclipse and editing my code in Notepad, I might have to think about it for a while.

Yeah, I'd do Notepad++ in a heartbeat compared to Eclipse. I was meaning vanilla notepad.
I think I'd still go with Notepad.

I played with Eclipse once, many years ago, and remember extreme frustration before giving up. If I recall correctly, all the cpp files had to be in one directory! I'm sure I had to have overlooked something, but that was a god-awful experience. And Slow! Hopefully they've improved it somewhat in the years since then.

One of the beauties of M$ taking a lot of their projects/code FOSS...
If you don't like the direction that Microsoft is taking a project, you can always just fork it and maintain your own version of the project. You can't do that with proprietary code.

I had to use Eclipse for a while and I was so annoyed with it that I bailed out. I ended up using it solely to run the compiler.
