WindowsXP on my work laptop has been becoming slower and slower. Very annoying. It takes about 5..7 minutes to launch up the system, and after a day or two of continious work it begins stalling from time to time. Only reboot helps. Not sure how to tune it, or what can be done.

C++ 11 released

Hey, Herb Sutter tells C++ has been released. Finally. On 2011.10.10.
Paper drafts are here. Offical ISO releases aren't free, I do not comment how to get them. But, indeed, I'm guessing there should be a few differencies between them and the drafts.
