A Fool's Consistency
summary
Argues the C++ const-placement feud between const West and const East and offers a practical compromise called const CL. Shows a concrete rule for where to place const, gives small annotated code examples and a lightweight enforcement habit that reduces bikeshedding, and links to slides and source at http://cppnow.org/history/2018/talks/. Claims the convention is simple to adopt, provably consistent across function signatures, and predictably makes both camps unhappy.
