Nintendo has sold 3.5 million Switch 2s in four days, setting a company record for a new console launch. That puts Nintendo on track toward its goal to sell 15 million units by March 2026 if it can keep up on the production side.

Type-based vs Value-based Reflection Frequently, whenever the topic of Reflection comes up, I see a lot of complains specifically about the new syntax being added to support Reflection in C++26. I’ve always thought of that as being largely driven by unfamiliarity — this syntax is new, unfamiliar, and thus bad.
