Reduce C++ Build Times by Reducing Header Dependencies[^]

Quote:
With that in mind, when you are refactoring, it is a good idea to track redundant includes either manually or using an external tool like [link]product[/link].

This can be done manually or with an architectural analysis tool like [link]product[/link].

The links are pointing to the web site of his employer and his profile page is a pure advert for the company even containing no link.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Missed that due to the weekend.

But even if it is a partner company:
Articles must be in the Third Party Products and Tools[^] or Product Showcase section and "must not be used to promote or advertise products in any way, shape or form".

That's why we are waiting. An action is needed anyways... the point is which one:
Nuke? Or..
Move and warn?

I'm inclined to nuke. Hasn't been a member long and everything posted is about their own product. Spam in my eyes

For me OK.

If we are wrong CP can reinstate the items and the account (and we apologize).

Good points!

I'm more than happy to apologise if I've been too gung-ho.

This A Basic Introduction of how to write Unit Test for Beginners in C#[^]
The (verbal) styles used are inconsistent. I can't find a single source for all of the article but there are certain phrases that have been lifted directly from other works:
"with a side effect of ensuring that your source code is thoroughly tested at a confirmatory level" and "The implication is that the faster your compiler and regression test suite, the more attractive it is to proceed in smaller and smaller steps" - Introduction to Test Driven Development (TDD)[^]
"The method must be decorated with the [TestMethod] attribute." (and others) - Walkthrough: Creating and Running Unit Tests for Managed Code[^]
"Unit testing may reduce uncertainty in the units themselves and can be used in a bottom-up testing style approach" (and others) - Introduction to Software Engineering/Testing/Unit Tests - Wikibooks, open books for an open world[^]

Am I being too picky? None of the "sources" are credited

Not too picky at all: your first link / sentence shows the whole paragraph copied.
Plagiarised, and "troll/abusive".

It's reposted: A Basic Introduction of how to write Unit Test for Beginners in C#[^]

I sampled a dozen random sentences. Each one comes, verbatim, from a different source. Definitely plagiarized.
