First public demo of #CarbonLang with C++ interop was by none other than @shanselman, running on a Commodore64 emulator, at #CppNorth today. During a talk about empathy. It both was kind of perfect given the context that has led to this project.

But it also was far from the best part of an amazing talk, huge thanks to Scott for the great talk and great message.

First time getting to listen to @shanselman talk live, and it was amazing. Huge thanks for the amazing talk at #CppNorth today.

Especially for correcting my _favorite_ (🤡) joke of "Chandler Bing" to "Chandler Google". I can already tell that this is a "gift" that will keep giving. =p

Would anyone attending #cppnorth be interested to have a birds-of-a-feather about alternative system languages like Rust, Zig, Odin etc.

Material from my CppNorth talk "C++ Insights: Peek behind the curtains of your C++ compiler" is available!

Talks by Andreas Fertig

Here you find my public conferences talks and appearances such as CppCon, C++Now, ACCU, or NDC TechTown.

I'm at #CppNorth and I am having SO MUCH FUN! It's my first time at a tech conference and it's like Nerd Paradise. You can just approach random people and talk about CPU TLB invalidation and how it compares to GPU TLB invalidation. Or about template metaprogramming. Or how to deal with decades-old code bases.
It's like everyone here is custom-made to be interesting to me.
Openning keynote today of #CppNorth by Kate Gregory about "The Aging Programmer" and ... Wow. What a weekend to tee up this real, hard, and important discussion.

@Patricia @krans @dascandy
at the time the alternative was only better with that single property and worse in many others, but yes, there is a problem.

I am no longer speaking or attending CPPCon and this year will have been my last ACCU, at least for some time until things change again.

there are alternatives like @meetingcpp , #cppnorth , or (i hope) @cpponsea

I'll be in Toronto talking about Modules, but not about building them, for a change.

Do you want to know more? Come to #CppNorth and see for yourself. If you weren't there, did it even happen?
