Some of the idiotic things that regulars of this newsgroup still
continue to advocate:

1) Don't use the unsigned integral types despite the fact that the C++
standard library is full of their use.
2) Don't use abstract interfaces (as they advocate against using public
virtual functions).
3) Never derive from standard containers despite the fact that interface
augmentation is useful.
4) Don't use reference members despite the fact that not all classes
need to
be Assignable.
5) Use the memory allocated by std::vector<POD>::reserve() without
constructing elements by bypassing std::vector's modification functions
(e.g. push_back).

Use this newsgroup with caution.
