If a data structure uses address arithmetic to determine the location of its data, then from time to time programs will almost surely find it necessary to put data at a particular place in memory. - C/C++

An Important Move Optimization Is Nearly Invisible

One of the biggest differences between copying and moving happens in code that we don't write. - C/C++

Some Optimizations Are More Important Than Others

Whenever a human is waiting for a computer to do needless work, it is not just the computer's time that is being wasted. - C/C++

Why Would You Ever Pass a Container By Value?

An important part of teaching is figuring out how to avoid drowning students in detail. - C/C++

Is Moving Objects Worth the Hassle?

This week, I'd like to take a step back and discuss why moving instead of copying is worth doing in the first place. - C/C++

Sometimes You Must Violate an Abstraction to Maintain It

There are instances where code tells a lie in the service of a greater truth. - C/C++

How the C++ Compiler Decides to Move Objects

After reading this post, you should be able to figure out what std::move does, although not necessarily how it does it. - C/C++

Moving an Object Does Not Destroy The Original

What moving an object actually does. - C/C++

Moving and Rvalue References

The C++ type system helps the compiler figure out whether to move or copy an object. How does it do it? - C/C++

More Thoughts About Moving Objects Safely

Moving objects instead of copying them is a tricky notion to explain — and perhaps trickier than I realized. - C/C++
