Well, I judged it with zero votes. Of course some more votes would help me making a decision when I feel it's borderline.
I'd also love to be able to publish a vid for this site using my recording format. So I look foward to it.

Feel free to ignore the peanut gallery ;)
I'll publish any run I feel is good enough (provided I can encode it).

While I did find parts of this video entertaining, it needs to be redone, see my comments in the submission.

I think we saw enough of this stupidity in a previous topic.
And call anything whatever you want, I really don't care, and if you're right or wrong, whatever, at the end of the day, I still have better things to do.

However I'm not actually doing it with a vector as I said, I'm wrapping one, so it does depend on the implementation.
Although yes, you're right, I can get that info another way.

No you cannot, because i (underlined) is undefined.
Ah good point.
But I can say size_t pos = i->item_pos; Then push back, then have i = v.begin()+pos;

If you need to be able to iterate it and extend it while iterating, use the numeric indexes instead. That, or when push_backing, convert the iterator into an index and back into an iterator:
for(it i = v.begin(); i != v.end(); ++i)
{
if(gruu(i)) // some random condition
{
typeof(v)::size_type s = i - v.begin(); // fixme: don't use typeof()
v.push_back(somevalue);
i = v.begin() + s;
}
}
I'm not sure whether end() is invalidated when the vector is resized, but since it is evaluated in each loop in this code, it doesn't matter.
I am not sure whether you can avoid the iterator invalidation by preallocating the vector using reserve(), so that capacity() before the loop yields a value larger or equal to the size() after the loop. You should check that, and if it's possible, then use reserve() to avoid multiple reallocations.
reserve() won't work if you don't know how much the last one may expand (meaning it keeps finding new items while working on the last one).
You gave me an idea how to fix this though. Each item in the vector contains its location in the vector, so after the push_back(), I can say:
i = v.begin() + i->item_pos;
Thanks.

Bisqwit:
I have an std::vector<> and am traversing it via an iterator.
One of the common operations I can do with the iterator will push_back() onto the std::vector, if the iterator was one before the end, and another item was found.
push_back() will invalidate existing iterators if it had to perform a resize operation.
I am getting begin() and end() via wrapper functions.
Is there any way I can iterate through this properly, and have the iterators not invalidate when one of the operations in middle of the loop did a push_back()?

In the mzt directory, you should find zmv files, they're gzip compressed, you can gunzip them and overwrite the main zmv file in the directory above that, and restore from your last save state that way.

You know you've been using the fast forward key in emulators too often when you're installing an application and hitting your usual fast forward hotkey and wondering why it's not working.

Breaking into an more entertaining and more technical subsets sounds good to me.
Like people submit a perfect run of a game where they frame perfectly walk into a wall right at the start which triggers the end game sequence, we can agree it can't get any faster, but pointless to watch. This would go in the technical but not entertaining category.
On the flip side, we have a game where doing exciting things slow down the play a bit, in those cases, we should have some kind of agreeable trade off. Think of where in a game doing the really quick root keeps the screen black for five minutes, where the slow route takes six minutes, but you get to see a lot of action the whole time.
