Happy birthday.
I experienced some but not all, just a whippersnapper 75.
If you can't find time to do it right the first time, how are you going to find time to do it again?

Yup. If I had known I would live this long, I would have taken better care of myself 
Started out with Assembler and Fortran (only choices back in the day).
Now, I can't keep up so I cobble together Python scripts.
Fortunately, Chris's GPAI does what I need for our 14 cameras and Blue Iris.

It’s weird being the same age as old people. Live every day like it is your last; one day, it will be.

Yes, yes, yes on so may counts.
7 words of memory - get after it now.
Polio was life crippling.
That lab created crap... well yeah.
I remember all things being fixed too.
And my mom in her house dress with little Ronnie clinging to it.
I was the last out of 5 of us.
It was said that when the oldest of us was small they ate stone soup.
He became an attorney in Pasadena California and ate no more stone soup I can attest to that.
Happy birthday you old coot.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Happy Birthday! Thanks for the great post!
I was 5 in 1953, when we got our first telly: a huge Bush with a 9" screen. It was bought so we could watch the Coronation... It exploded a couple of years later (terrible smell of N2O), and the picture collapsed to the size of a postage stamp. No repairing that!

having watched a youtube on the impact and enginerring of the Biro ballpoint (crystal), the impact that offered literacy rates, I wonder if would have noticed that, though that took off start of 1900s so maybe already established like how a 20 year old views the internet?
Also if involved in fixing any of your own Y2K problems, and hopefully you will be laughing at the chaos of 2038 problem?
happy birthday

I started my software development career using FORTRAN, taught myself C, suffered through Pascal and despise Visual Basic. I'm an EE that just learned how to do this. Back in the beginning, there were no IDEs just text editors, so I naturally developed the habit of putting one function in one file. As I moved on to C++, I continued this style with my class development - one class per file. I suppose I picked up this style from the people I worked with, early source control systems I used (CMS/MMS anyone?) and what not.
Now I admit I am no C++ guru. I have seen people on stack overflow answer a C++ question with so much mind numbing detail that my eyes glaze. I view some or most of the esoteric aspects of c++ (like operator overloading) as dubious at best. Sounds good initially but later on in maintenance, ugh.
So, coding style question - do you embed classes within classes? I suppose if the object is never used outside of it's main file, it sort of makes sense. But it makes it a $itch to track things down. Then, other modules that include the header file for the parent start referencing the embedded classes, and it becomes spaghetti code. I know it's valid C++, but....
Thoughts? I'm probably just being a curmudgeon. Currently doing battle with lifting a VC6 project to VS2022. To say it's "interesting" is putting it lightly but that's for another post.

I never nest classes in any languages - one class one file ( 2 in c++ )
