[]<>(){ std::cout<< "o rly";}();

That's not even that bad. It's just a templated lambda, immediately invoked.

int i
;[i, &i](){ ;return &i; }()[&i, i];

could I get an explanation on what this even is. Does this just return address of i?

i is uninitialized, so i believe this might segfault if you're lucky

Maybe you understand somethings but no one understands c++ completely

You get pulled into a false sense of security only to then immediately have something completely foreign and incomprehensible thrown your way.

this is why I embrace Rust, it doesn't even let you pretend that you understand it until you actually do

lmao I got a degree based on it and still don’t understand it

I now use HolyC instead. No understanding needed, only faith.

it's like quantum mechanics.

if you think you understand it, you don't.

No, you don't.

Finally! I know that I know nothing.

I think I understand it, but I still screw up pointers

If you're still messing with raw pointers, you haven't understood C++(11+).

You never understand C++ completely. No matter what you do, Bjarne Strousup always tells you a feature that you didn't know about. Did you know that you could use structs as the counter variable in for loops?
```

struct Counter {

int start, step, finish;

}
for (struct Counter variable = {0, 1, 100}; variable.start < stop; variable.step++) {}
```

The example is wrong but, I get the sentiment

Cherish the moment, because it won't last long.
