C++ Epochs with Vittorio Romeo

<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11.0pt;"> Rob and Jason are joined by Vittorio Romeo from Bloomberg. They first discuss some changes in the recent Visual Studio update for cross platform linux development, and some post-Cologne ISO developments. Then Vittorio goes into more detail on his proposal for C++ epochs, which could allow the language to more easily introduce breaking changes in the future.</p> <p>Vittorio Romeo has been a Software Engineer at Bloomberg for more than 3 years, working on mission-critical company C++ infrastructure and providing Modern C++ training to hundreds of fellow employees.</p> <p>He began programming around the age of 8 and quickly became a C++ enthusiast. Vittorio created several open-source C++ libraries and games, published many video courses and tutorials, and actively participates in the ISO C++ standardization process.</p> <p>He is also an active member of the C++ community and has an ardent desire to share his knowledge and learn from others. When he’s not writing code, Vittorio enjoys weightlifting and fitness-related activities, competitive/challenging computer gaming and sci-fi movies/TV-series.</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: underline; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;" href= "https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/c-cross-platform-development-with-visual-studio-2019-version-16-3-vcpkg-cmake-configuration-remote-headers-and-wsl/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">C++ Cross-Platform Development with VS 2019 16.3 vcpkg, Cmake config, remote headers and WSL</a></li> <li style= "padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"><a style= "color: #4183c4; text-decoration: none; paddin
