I now have between 10,000 and 20,000 readers per day. This makes me both proud and amazed.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few words for the historian: six months before my English blog, I started a German blog. This is also the reason why my English C++ blog has a German name. Pretty soon, I began receiving emails telling me that I should also publish my articles in English, as the automatic translation into English wasn&#8217;t good enough. Initially, two proofreaders, <strong>Alexey Elymanov <\/strong>and <strong>Arne Mertz<\/strong>, assisted me in correcting my English, as it still had considerable room for improvement. I then translated all 50 German articles into English as quickly as possible. From that point on, I have been publishing every article in German and English. The German articles now appear on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heise.de\/thema\/Modernes-Cplusplus\">Heise Developer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you lose track of things in my blog, you should consult the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.modernescpp.com\/index.php\/table-of-content\/\">TOC<\/a>, the search function, or the tag system. In addition, each article contains a reference to similar articles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>My goal is to break the 1000 mark. I am sure that I will not run out of material on C++.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week was very exciting for Cippi. She visited CppCon in Aurora, near Denver.
