I’ve been programming in C++ for some good years now. And I love writing portable, performant and ISO-C++ standard’s compliant code. I’m active on stackoverflow.com, currently among the global 0.5%, and the 355th legendary Gold Badge earner in C++.
While C++ gives you unfettered control over the Performance of your Software. C++17 gives you more control over productivity, safety and performance. I love to stay at the bleeding edge of standards and technologies, hence I’ve had experience writing C++98, C++03, C++11, C++14, and C++17 - At the same time, I regularly poke my head into the ISO C++ standards committee documents ahead of C++20.
PS: Great job to the C++ Community, the ISO C++ members, and Herb Sutter!
Industry Skills?
I hate being choicely. I am always excited about exploring new fields. :-)
-
I have working knowledge of concurrency and multi-threading (I claim some pretty reasonable knowledge on atomics, but absolutely no knowledge on
std::memory_order_consume) -
Because I currently work in Security - Identity and Access Management infrastructure domain; I have been learning a lot, and gradually gainning relevant expertise daily
-
Nonetheless, I know some stuff on Subsea Systems Engineering in the Oil and Gas Sector; I did an Assessed Internship with Shell Nigeria Exploration and Production Company, Lagos in 2014. (I enjoyed it! and I still keep some tabs on the industry :-) )
-
I regularly solve algorithmic problems for fun, and to improve my problem solving skills
-
I am very comfortable with template meta programming (though I get annoyed by complicated templates)
Other languages?
Of cause. C++ wouldn’t be my first and last choice for a lot of stuff. I have trained and fought wars with other Artilleries including C, C#, Java, JavaScript ECMA2015 (NodeJS) and Python. My current job involves a dose of Java and Perl; with some Typescript/Javascript, Go, and some toolings/scripts on DevOps.
