| Fear in Tech | Meeting C++ 2024 | 2024-11-14 |
Claims that culture drives technical outcomes: research shows psychological safety explains roughly 30% of team success, and managers overestimate visibility… | ||
| On parameter sinks | Meeting C++ 2024 | 2024-11-14 |
Claim: an rvalue-reference parameter by itself is often only a maybe-move, not a guaranteed move, and that matters for lifetimes and allocations; proven by… | ||
| Software Engineering Languages | CppNorth 2022 | 2022-07-18 |
Argues that languages are tools and that software engineering needs different tradeoffs than quick programming: static typing plus compiler-driven refactors… | ||
| Tradeoffs in the Software Workflow | ACCU 2022 | 2022-04-06 |
Argues that shipping small changes matters quantitatively: DORA shows 46x more frequent deployments, 440x faster commit→deploy, 170x faster MTTR, and 5x lower… | ||
| Configuration, Extension, Maintainability | CppCon 2021 | 2021-10-24 |
Argues that granular knobs become a maintenance tax: Hyrum’s Law bites, tests won’t catch timing/regressions, and defaults get petrified — examples include… | ||
| Healthy Teams, Healthy Code | Craft Conference 2021 | 2021-06-02 |
Claim: team culture, not test coverage or tooling, most strongly predicts long-term code health and velocity. Internal Google research over a decade shows… | ||
| PREVIEW VIDEO - November | ACCU Autumn 2019 Belfast | 2019-11-11 |
Two-day ACCU Autumn conference runs 2019-11-11 to 2019-11-12 at the Hilton in Belfast and deliberately abuts the WG21 C++ meeting in the UK so attendees can… | ||
| Impact on maintainability and refactoring for higher-level design features | ACCU Autumn 2019 Belfast | 2019-11-11 |
Claim: more expressive C++ features raise long‑term refactoring cost. Concrete examples: Google limits ~2,000 files per commit so it uses multi-step… | ||
| Maintainability and Refactoring Impact of Higher-Level Design Features | CppCon 2019 | 2019-09-15 |
Argument: types are harder to refactor than functions and templates harder still, with Concepts effectively impossible to change once published. Demonstrated… | ||
| What is C++ | CppCon 2019 | 2019-09-15 |
Argues that C++ prioritizes resource-critical performance and inherits C’s separate-compilation model, which produces real surprises like ill-formed no… | ||
| “Modern C++ Design (part 1 of 2)” | CppCon 2018 | 2018-09-23 |
Argues that the real atom of C++ API design is the overload set and that copy vs move should be treated as that overload set (move as an optimization of copy)… | ||
| Modern C++ Design (part 2 of 2) | CppCon 2018 | 2018-09-23 |
Argues concrete rules for parameter passing and type design: when to use rvalue-references, reference-qualified overloads, and how to express maybe move… | ||
| Grill the Committee | CppCon 2018 | 2018-09-23 |
Progress on modules name-lookup fixes and a plan to let modules export incomplete types narrow major pain points, but only a small subset of executors has any… | ||
| Standard Library Compatibility Guidelines (SD-8) | CppCon 2018 | 2018-09-23 |
A new standing document SD-8 records that the committee reserves the right to add names, members, overloads, default arguments and change return types in… | ||
| “C++ as a "Live at Head" Language” | CppCon 2017 | 2017-09-24 |
Google runs a monorepo with ~250M lines of C++ and 12,000 active developers and claims C++ can be maintained by building from head rather than pinning… | ||
| “Hands-On With Abseil” | CppCon 2017 | 2017-09-24 |
Introduces Abseil as Google’s portable C++ library set with concrete compatibility rules: a target five-year support window, Bazel as the build truth with… | ||
| Lessons in Sustainability... | CppCon 2015 | 2015-09-21 |
Google runs a monolithic C++ repo with 100M+ lines and thousands of engineers committing weekly, so sustainability means being able to change things safely… | ||
| The Philosophy of Google's C++ Code | CppCon 2014 | 2014-09-07 |
Google documents why specific rules exist and what actually changed: the codebase spans 100 million lines of code, an indexer called kaith lets maintainers… | ||
