Description
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> Rob and Jason are joined by Nevin Liber from Argonne National Lab. They first discuss a blog post discussing issues implementing small buffer optimizations in a constexpr context. Then they talk with Nevin about how he got involved with the ISO C++ committee and some of the proposals he's worked on.</p> <p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> Nevin ":-)" Liber is a computer scientist at Argonne National Laboratory, a C++ Committee member and a veteran C++ developer. He first discovered the language over three decades ago while at Bell Labs when a friend called and asked, “What do you know about C++? You folks invented it!”</p> <p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> His professional career has taken him across various industries and platforms: big data, low-latency, operating systems, embedded systems, telephony and now exascale computing, just to name a few. He spends much of his time pushing his peers, colleagues and friends to use modern C++ constructs along the way.</p> <p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> </p> <p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> Looking to learn more about the language, he got involved with the C++ Committee and hosted both the C++ and C Standards meetings in Chicago. These days he frequently finds himself in the middle of the debates involving the more contentious parts of the Standard Library.</p> <h3 style= "font-weight: bold; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; font-size: 18px; padding: 0px; margin: 20px 0px 10px 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"> News</h3> <ul style= "padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px; margin: 15px 0px 15px 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"> <li style= "padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"><a style= "color: #4183c4; text-decoration: none;
