    Rainier had one of the most excellent C++ blogs. He is also the author of several books on modern C++ standards. Rest in peace, Rainer. :(

    Oh no. :(

    I really liked his series about modern c++ and learned a lot from it. It even made me understand some of the more complex topics of it and kinda rekindled my will to keep on learning.
