I was trying to get some old projects of mine to build. They used CMake.
CMake wasn't building my projects. It used to find the compilers, but now it can't. So I added some env variables
Now CMake was building my projects. But I go to run them, I get no output. No error. Nothing.
Worse, I try to compile one of my projects that used my graphics lib and I was getting all kinds of compile errors. Yikes. Even though the C++ standard was set to 17.
I install another copy of MinGW from another source. Now it says my C++ compiler can't compile the test program (CMake tries the compiler with a dry run source file to see if it works)
I feel like an idiot.
I was using 32 bit versions of everything. I have no idea why. I know better.
It's been one of those days.

The make -> cmake transition marks (at least in my mind) the 'bare metal' to 'higher level, more complex stuff' and I don't like it.

Is this the normal experience of everyone?

It's common when you're a new or otherwise inactive user because you don't have that many reputation points.
It's kind of a pain but it's a necessarily evil to cut down on spamming and such, which the site gets a lot of.
Just be patient, and eventually you'll get an established reputation (you can check it your profile) and you'll no longer be automoderated.
We all go through this hazing ritual.

It's a heuristic system: it learns from what you post and what happens to stuff it thinks might be spam. If you are a new member and a post gets flagged as "possible spam" it "keeps an eye on you" for a while and then forgets about you if you "behave".
It's pretty good most of the time and it doesn't take too long for it to get bored and stop.
When it was new and shiny it added me to the naughty list and I spent a while having to moderate my own posts! 
Give it a while and you'll be fine.

It makes mistakes from time to time, but it's absolutely necessary - you wouldn't believe how much attempted spam we get. And as for spam waves :shudder: ... when bots get involved you can get thousands of spam posts an hour and that drives legitimate posts to page 50+ in no time. Since the autodetection system was introduced not of those have been seen by anyone except rapidly tiring moderators!
We get to the queue as quickly as we can and liberate false positives, and it learns from that - but we generally have other (paying) jobs to do and it can take a short while to get to it. Please, bear with us!

That sounds like a rotten task. Thanks for carrying the load for the rest of us.

It postdates your membership - it's what? 5 years old? Maybe a little longer?

It was in its infancy, and making more mistakes than now. The Hamsters tweaked it so it doesn't catch Protector-level members any more.

Oh god no. They tried that with a commenting platform online at a site that shall remain nameless.
The moderation went from okay (humans) to non-existent (nobody) to awful (A"I")
They suck at this.

I have two accounts, one (this one) that I use regularly and often from my office, one that I use (more rarely) from home. The office account posts immediately, the home account gets checked and posts some time later. Makes sense, I guess.

Hello all,
First of all thank you all the CPians that answered months ago a related question. I've been working 14 to 16 hours a day and have not been able to answer you all, but thanks for your suggestions and messages! ![Beer | [beer]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)
I've reduced the choice of monitors to those two:
https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-ultrasharp-30-usb-c-hub-monitor-u3023e/apd/210-bdsn/monitors-monitor-accessories[^]
Dell UltraSharp 27 Inch Thunderbolt™ 4 Hub Monitor - U2724DE | Dell USA[^]
In both cases I'd get two of them.
This said, I own a Thinkpad P14s Gen 2 with USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 (NO THUNDERBOLT). Would both monitors work with that laptop?
Would it be possible to daisy chain the two monitors using USB C or Display Port?
Nowadays I have two QHD monitors connected to a dock station that works using that USB C 3.2 Gen 2 connector and it works well... but I am tired of the dock failures (I must reconnect both displays every time I get into the office).
As always thank you in advance!

Nope, way too expensive and I don't know if I am ready to switch to the curved/wide thing...
I am way to used to be able to maximize a window into one of the displays... Something I would not get in a curved/wide display.
Thanks for posting. But I am more interested in knowing if the USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 on my laptop would be enough to drive the displays I mentioned in my original post.

We have an internal web-based dashboard that shows the current or last state of most of our automation apps and their tasks. Each app is listed and color-coded to indicate its state: green for okay/information only, yellow for an error, red for a critical error. I want to add symbols to aid in quickly determining these states without resorting to colors for any folks with a color vision deficiency.
Is there a standard or widely used set of symbols that represent those three states? If not, what symbols would you suggest?
Edit: If only I could spell 'state'...

Those could work. Hmm...
