Growing pains
-
I was reading through the Questions part of codeproject on C++ template related entries and I found two really bizarre questions about templates - one involving nested template specializations (not directly possible) and one involving using a .cpp implementation file with a template. In both instances, my first thought was why in the heckin' heck would you do it that way in the first place?! And then in both cases I mentally sketched an alternative. Then I noticed I was the one that posted those questions in the first place. :laugh: Totally forgot about them.
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.

lol, been working on embedded stuff for 20 years. I regularly come across previous questions thinking, "Hey this guy has the same problem I do...." then I sigh when I realize I was the OP.

Propose to call it recursive amnesia. When you forgot what you forgot. Also happens when you go to a shop and know you forgot something while in the shop, and even not knowing anymore why you needed to buy it.
