Lightning Talk: I'm a C++ Expert (And Proud Of It)
summary
Claim: being an expert is practical and social not mystical — three concrete things matter: knowledge of the language, code analysis and refactoring, willingness to share. Evidence: a legacy project riddled with unsafe casts, inconsistent header guards, bad pointer misuse and performance bugs gets stabilized by targeted fixes and code reviews. Tools used are plain: C++ language knowhow, Visual Studio C++ (CX era), a blog to record decisions and answer follow‑ups.
