Post #2633019

@mnf@mastodon.social oh, that's a good one! Fun story from University: the task was to build a list datastructure in C++ that could be converted into builtin datastructures like vectors. Took me two weeks and the other students two days. Turns out I misread the assignment and implemented an STL-compatible container, which is a whole different ballgame. Instructur was flabbergasted when they looked at the result. Learned so much about C++ internals that it was totally worth it. (Forgot all of it, of course.)
