How to convert an enum to string in C++
I really like better_enums instead of magic_enums. There’s no limit on enum size with it: http://aantron.github.io/better-enums/
It was heavily used at a former employer of mine, so definitely a solid production-ready solution.

What C++ library do you wish existed but hasn’t been created yet?
IIRC I then switched to another library doing the same stuff: https://github.com/aantron/better-enums It is not as magical, as it uses a special macro to define the enum, using dedicated syntax. So it only works for enums you yourself define. However, it did work a lot better for me with enums with huge values.

Behind the magic of magic_enum
I can't keep up! First we have better enum, then some guy at a conference says we have to use wise enum instead, and now you speak of magic enum!

let's all be chads
If you need a laugh today, look at Better Enums library for C++. If you thought moving from C to C++ would let you leave macros behind, think again! Enums in C++ still suck (a bit less than in C though), so someone built a library to help with that. And it's built on macros. So you can only have 64 entries per enum. And the library's code is barely readable.

Parsing time stamps faster with SIMD instructions
It's not bad at all https://github.com/lemire/Code-used-on-Daniel-Lemire-s-blog/...

Under Linux, libSegFault and addr2line are underrated
A newline is missing in the example code. As given there's a segfault at line 5 not line 6.
However, the code at https://github.com/lemire/Code-used-on-Daniel-Lemire-s-blog/... shows it's indeed at line 6, because it has an extra newline after the '#include '.

Technical Blogs You Recommend?
Dr. Daniel Lemire's blog: https://lemire.me/blog, covers lots of technical items on optimizations in various programming languages, Lemire's work is currently in use across a number of projects and he consistently delivers fantastic improvements, he usually accompanies these improvements with a blog post describing what he did. He also occasionally posts interesting Science and Technology links on various topics not limited to tech, but health and education as well.
- suggest some c language blogs....

What are some cool modern libraries you enjoy using?
Nope, simdjson is originally from Daniel Lemire who also often blogs about fancy low level optimizations: https://lemire.me/blog/ I'm just a happy user :)

Escaping strings faster with AVX-512
Added this pull request with some interesting results.
There's a copy of the loop used on the escape function inside the avx512_escape function [0]. Is it needed or just a copy and paste mistake? (I know nothing about vector instructions)
