Comments on Jon Cohen's Cppcon talk

"Exception safety is really about when you are in a room
that is completely burning and filled with smoke and fire;
you can drink your coffee and say, 'this is fine' because
I know how to deal with the problem." Jon Cohen from his
Cppcon 2018 talk: “Ensuring Exception Safety Through Testing"

That quote reminds me of these lyrics:

"When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul." Horatio Spafford

I liked the talk in general and that was before it hit
me about the parallel.
