CppCon 2024

As much as I like C++, it is certainly not free of -- let's say -- quirks.  Both the core language and the standard library exhibit idiosyncracies, sometimes even in conflict with one another.

Some of these "oops" may be historical in origin.  However, most are due to the spectrum of viewpoints held by the hundreds of contributors who have participated in C++ standardization to date.

This talk points out many of these inconsistencies and numerous other infelicities in naming, behavior, or both.  Come see whether *your* pet C++ peeve is mentioned!
